The Deity Is So Cruel to You and Me

Start watching Guardian: The Lonely and Great God S1E11 wherever you stream it, and skip to 0:00. Press Start the moment you are there — then tap a word the instant you hear it. This run lasts about ten minutes. You won't see subtitle lines here — just the words. You're training your ear, not reading along.

You've got about six seconds either side, so aim rather than stab. The first word doesn't come up until around the 1-minute mark — quiet before that is the episode, not a bug.
