  • In Ed's defense, they're really not, and I am in no way hearing impaired.

    For example, it just looks like continuous prose. There's no punctuation or 'Cole:' or 'Bill:'

    When there are close up shots of the watches, or whenever Cole/Bill's faces aren't on screen, you can't see their mouths moving to associate lip movements with the subtitles. So you have no idea who is speaking. Knowing Ed IRL, I know that he relies heavily on lip reading.

    A brand of Hodinkee's caliber not having subtitles is not excusable IMO - but that doesn't mean he should take it out on me every time I post a Hodinkee article 😂

  • Yeah, actually good captions need to be written, but we established that they don't exist already. For auto generated subs I thought they were pretty good actually.
