1. A computer-implemented method for explaining domain-specific terms detected in a media content stream, the computer-implemented method comprising:
detecting a speech portion included in an audio signal;
determining that the speech portion comprises a domain-specific term;
disabling audio pass-through of the audio signal after determining that the speech portion comprises the domain-specific term;
storing, in an audio buffer, a portion of the audio signal after the domain-specific term;
determining an explanatory phrase associated with the domain-specific term;
replacing the domain-specific term with the explanatory phrase in playback of the audio signal; and
playing back the explanatory phrase;
after playing back the explanatory phrase, playing back the buffered portion of the audio signal at an increased playback speed; and
in response to determining that the buffered portion of the audio signal has caught up with the audio signal:
stopping playback of the buffered portion of the audio signal, and
enabling audio pass-through of the audio signal.
