It's very nice that Robin Diamond summarized Rabbi Kessin's shiur but honestly, the rabbi needs to keep his shiur to a half-hour. Rabbi Kessin has very deep knowledge in Kabbalah - most people don’t - and therefore, he should be making a series of videos that are a half-hour instead.
To connect the dots, you have to have the relevant dots before you. Fragmenting it, imo, would disrupt the cohesion of the big picture. People will watch a movie but not this? Sad.

The rabbi's shiurim are rarely longer than an hour and a half and usually ten or fifteen minutes less, less than the average feature film. And, as you say, Leah, it can be paused and returned to. There are some fans of the rabbi who have made "snippets" and added visuals, which is fine. But, generally, it is best left as an epic whole.

"But I don't want to go among mad people," Alice remarked. "Oh, you can't help that," said the Cat: "we're all mad here. I'm mad. You're mad." "How do you know I'm mad?" said Alice. "You must be," said the Cat, "or you wouldn't have come here."
