I can't read anything written and it doesn't seem scripted making getting through it difficult.

Technical people want concise, easy to digest, easy to search (text! not video) reference materials. A combination of long form articles with white boarding videos that were clearer in both visuals and scripting would go a long way to adding value.

It's definitely not scripted, these are actual mock interviews I'm conducting in a VR setting.What I'm taking away from this is that trying to recreate an in person environment isn't the goal, the goal is to create an awesome video thats easy to consume. Makes complete sense, thanks for the feedback
I’ll offer a different perspective. If I’m looking for an answer I want a concise and straight to the point explanation.

If I’m trying to understand about the dynamics of an interview or even understand how people smarter than me get to a solution, I might want to go through the whole journey.

I guess this part comes down to an editorial decision: are you trying to offer technical solutions or are you trying to do something else?

Knowing the answer to that question might help you decide what path to take.
