    I see this too, at about 33:30. The slides at this point are hard to correlate with what Yehuda is saying, but at 37:40 it is clear that the slides are running ahead (by one slide) of the video. They remain out of sync by one slide until very close to the end (about 54:00), where they come back into sync.
