Applies Audio edition only.
There was an excessive part taken up by the interviews they went on for too long, plus two long interviews are just excessive.
Narrators' Rating: 5.0 stars
Since they are podcasters they made excellent narrators of their nonfiction book! I did have to slow the book down from my normal nonfiction speed since I'm used to their speech at 1x speed, I listened at 1.75x speed.

The only "downside" I would say is that this book is really tailored to existing RedHanded audiences - It's full of references and inside jokes that only existing listeners would know. While a good marketing scheme, could hinder their growth with a new audience and stop new readers from completely loving this book.

My only query was their understanding of the brain in people with ADHD verses psychopathy - both are underactive, but it is the areas which are affected which makes the significant difference!
Throughout they kept their sense of wit which certainly helped to lightened the darker moments.
