Not organised, left confused.
What did you like best about Mind = Blown? What did you like least?
while I liked the facts, I just couldn't keep listening to it, the fact change category's so fast it was confusing, one minute I am listing to how cows where on said for a silly amount of money (not wanting to give the fact away) the next i'm listening to a "fan fact" that has nothing to do with the fact before it, and then I am brought some where close to the previous facts.
For me it was just too confusing
Would you ever listen to anything by Matthew Santoro again?
Im not sure if I would, based of this book, I don't think I would TBH
What did you like about the performance? What did you dislike?
I like how he seemed enthused bout the facts he was talking about, it really was a god thing IMO.
Was Mind = Blown worth the listening time?
To me sadly no, I had to keep going back over past facts, the jumping from one set of facts to a different one just confused me and broke the fluidity of them
Any additional comments?
To the author of a book, I am sorry I feel this way about your book, and I am sure you spent a lot of time researching the facts, writing them down and even reading them out for the audio book, but alas for me it wasn't a good listen, and I am sorry

👌
Great facts and we'll explained but you should know, the audiobook misses out the opportunity to display pictures and many if not all the facts are in the authors Youtube channel. I souks recommend watching them or purchasing the print version of the book. Still good though.

Interesting and worth a listen
Matthew's book is an interesting mix of.facts. It is a book which he has written to build his own brand. But that doesn't distract from it being a worthy addition to your audible library. You will share some of the facts with your family and friends, guaranteed. I couldn't help myself.

Yawn.
It's ok for basic facts, but I didn't think there was anything amazing about it.

Stop it with the Fan Facts!
Every couple of minutes "Fan Fact, *some fact that may or may not be interesting*, that fact was brought to you by Mr or Misses somebody"... Leave the credits to the end this isn't a YouTube video. Wouldn't recommend.

Terrible irritating narration
This is one of those books where the author was a terrible choice for narration. The over the top shouty delivery throughout this book is so frustrating and distracting that's it's near impossible to take in the content. Really not worth it.
