Game Changer

This book is full of so much valuable information on how to get better at machine learning in general in addition to the competitions hosted in Kaggle. The technical breadth contained in both the audio and print versions make it a must have reference for anyone working in data.

Absolutely disastrous

In the Audiobook version of "The Kaggle Book," the narrator, Alex Freeman, consistently pronounces "Kaggle" KAY-guhl, like "kegel." The word "kaggle" is used in almost every sentence, sometimes more than once per sentence.

Kaggle (KAH-gul) is a data science platform. Kegel (KAY-guhl) is a pelvic floor exercise. Astonishingly, he does this even in the sentence where he says that the name was chosen to rhyme with "gaggle."

I contacted Packt to see if they could provide an explanation, but I couldn't get passed their GPT-generated form letters. All in all, a shameful adaptation to audiobook, and a bad sign for any Packt books I might see on Audible in the future.
