Are they good quality for listening to?

I listen to audio books regularly and they are at the upper end in terms of quality.

Moreover, is the material they cover comprehensible?

Yes. Articles that don't translate well into audio are not produced e.g. Intuitive Bayes Theorem is unavailable.

have you found the Less Wrong casts to be understandable sufficiently well for a first-time listener?

Yes.

I'd like to know in which order I should provide those articles that are available on Castify.

I don't know what you mean here but you can contact Castify directly with your questions - http://castify.co/contact/new

I mean, from the context of someone listening to Less Wrong for the first time, what order of listening would be suggested to make the understanding of each article most complete. I suppose that the various previous topics regarding this for reading order would work, too, but that would require some amount of cross-referencing that I'd rather avoid if possible; though I do not intend to offload this work onto others if it is necessary. I was just looking to see if there were a more easily acquired answer than that.

Regardless, thanks a bunch for the help!
