    We first told you yesterday about a viral audio clip that's dividing friends, families, and co-workers. Do you hear the word "Yanny" or "Laurel"? Twitter data shows 53% of people on that site hear "Laurel" and 47% hear "Yanny." @nxthompson has more https://cbsn.ws/2IlboW8 pic.twitter.com/kgfZJrZOzI

        It's how the clip is played and how slow bro. Plus we all do have a unique body frequency at play as well but not enough to change yanni to laurel without tweaking the speed.
