What the tape says about how Eyal argues and how the claims held up. Everything they said, and everything said about them, is in the tabs below.

How they sound: not measured why? →

We measure speaking style by listening to the audio itself, and a fair number needs at least 2,000 words from one person on tape we have measured. There is too little of Eyal Grayevsky on measured tape to publish a rate. This says nothing about how they speak.
