DAE hear this sound in a person’s speech/articulation?

I’m pretty hypersensitive and hear things a lot of people don’t hear (e.g., someone’s breathing across the room, not like hallucinations hahaha). But there’s gotta be other people that hear this…

When some people speak (English), their “S” sound can be so sharp and makes almost a whistling noise. To me, this higher-pitched (or louder/stronger??) frequency completely overcomes the articulation/pronunciation of rest of the word. Imagine a mouse-like squeak every time the speaker says a word with the letter S.

This drives me insane. Obviously, people can’t control it and likely have no reason to believe their speech is different from anyone else’s (I’m assuming). But it literally hurts my brain to listen to people who make this sound.

I have to watch around 8 hours of lecture videos and the professor speaks like this. As I type this post, all I hear is S s S s SS. Automatic headache. Send help 😭

Is there a software that can compare two sound files of someone speaking to prove the speaker in each sound file is the same person?

Sorry if this doesn't make sense, but I'll try my best to explain.

I was listening to a lecture published by a popular bar exam company and immediately recognized the speaker's voice. The video lecture does not show the speaker's face (only has a bunch of cartoon graphics and words).

I emailed the company to ask if they could tell me who the lecturer is, and they said no. Which I think is stupid, but whatever.

The speaker I have in mind has various videos on YouTube. I was wondering if there was a way to pull samples from those YouTube videos and compare them to the sample lecture videos from my bar prep course, and somehow confirm that the two speakers are the same person?

I feel like I'm correct, but didn't know if there was a way to prove that I'm right using technology. Everything I have looked at so far seems way too difficult to operate as a lay person (I don't understand code/programming etc). I am about to resort to just asking random people and see what their unbiased ear thinks, but wanted to check with Reddit first.

Anything helps! Thank you!
