i speed thru it until his guest answers the question. It is a speed device to get a show over in 10 minutes
same with taped baseball and football games. I've seen thousands of scoreless innings and quarters go by. The trick is ff until you see a td or run score then rewind to the preceding point you wish to restart the action. Baseball and football games are reduced from 3 to 4 hrs to no more than a half hour each. Just saying
session over
We start baseball or football about an hour after the game starts.

We watch the game just zap thru the commercials so a foot ball game in just over a half hour. Why watch as they huddle up or walk to the line.

Otherwise do not see the point of watching the game just wait for the score.
