It's both words overlayed on top of each other in a technically clever way. It's created to confuse.

I only heard Yarry on every other recording. Your recording is the very first time that I heard Laurel.

Monkster posted one on his facebook page that would change based on which word you were thinking. That was really interesting.

Did you mean Yanny? Because I keep hearing 'yarry' which isn't even an option.

No, I was agreeing with you, that I kept hearing Yarry, like you did.

Actually from what I’ve read it isn’t. This is a word that a person found in a dictionary definition audio. The word actually is laurel, a wreath you put on someone’s head. That was the word that they were looking up.
I clearly hear Laurel.

I do too. Here's a page where you can slide your way from Laurel to Yanny :

If we number the intervals going from left to right from 0 through 10 then my personal midpoint seems to be at 7 where I can hear both about equally. It may depend somewhat on the quality of one's speakers though. Try it on a pc or tablet rather than on a phone.

My wife heard another word close to it too, but not yanny. When I did the slider thing Colonel posted I hear something similar but not yanny.
