As you said previously, here it's recording, with the real voices of
the persons.
Hopefully it's licensed: laws forbid you to record someone who is not
aware of it, it seems normal to me.

But as you said, you "I can give my own speech based on the ideas",
and so you "can regive his speech" (you can use the exact same wording
if you want).
And as you noticed, the important point is to be able to regive the
ideas. Which is already possible with any book.
