I am without a doubt the dumbest man on Earth

75. It could be your tv's sound setting.

I have a Roku tv that you can adjust the sound settings from standard, speech, theater, music, big bass and high treble and auto. I have it set on speech and use headphones if not wearing my hearing aides for tinnitus. If tv is set on theater, for example, I hear the sound effects of people walking the across the road and mumbling voices, not people talking as they walk across a road. Having the sound set to speech makes a big difference. It makes voices or speech very prominent. I also have the cc on all the time in case I miss a word. Our old tv's all had an audio setting on the tv main menu for the tv's settings, like color, size ratio, audio, etc. Hope this helps and you still have time to watch. I have never seen Wicked, but I hear it is good.
