Is it because of the wording, monotone etc.. Just wondering if I'm the only one having this problem?

15,283 PointsI found the videos very interesting and I didn't have a hard time listening to the videos. I am a newbie who could start working as a web developer in a team where agile is used. I find it important to use the correct terms and be aware of the motivations for agile (and scrum).
In my opinion you might find it boring as it is not coding and until you don't work in a team where these methods are used, you can't really appreciate it, or you can't really imagine that knowing this stuff is important.
You should ask yourself why you want to listen to the videos and if you can't find real motivation, you could head over to different topics that interests you.

7,365 PointsI noticed the same thing - I'm thinking its because there just a lot to absorb since it's essentially a lecture rather than a code-along. For what it's worth, I write notes in markdown while watching (I usually break up videos into blocks, listening to a block, then taking notes, then next block), which helps me stay engaged and practice my markdown skills.
Hope this helps!
