"ist"
Every night before I go to bed, I pray to God, saying "Oh Lord! Please let today be the day Duolingo finally fixes the mind-wrenching audio glitch in the word 'ist'!", and every morning when I wake up the glitch is still there. So now I am faced with the question, does God hate me, or just Duolingo?

No, it is definitely "ist" (although I could also be made to believe there is a glitch in "du isst" as well, but I haven't heard that phrase for a while). That's odd that you don't hear it. For you "ist" sounds perfectly fine, huh? I guess the problem must be on my end then. But, for me, every time and in every sentence, "ist" sounds like some sound from an 80's video game. So far that's the only one I've noticed. On the bright side I suppose, I don't have any trouble making it out. When the sentence is vocalized as "Sie [pacman eats a ghost] genauso gross wie ihre Schwester.", I'll know "oh yeah! That's 'ist'".
