Request for the DU threads about the upcoming debates

I like to follow the debates on DU and usually don't even watch. Unfortunately, many of the comments leave me wondering what just happened. Would it be possible to put some context with your comment so people like me know what's going on?

Thanks!

You'd be better off to at least listen to the audio, which you could do for free on tunein app. (CNN is one of their audio options).

Then following the quick-moving "insider baseball"-type threads wouldn't be so seemingly hopeless.

I've seen too many posts over the years similar to:

"WOW! What Rachel Maddow just said!"

alongside DU if you're using a PC! Last time a DUer posted the YouTube link just after it started and I streamed the whole thing live without a hitch.
