If it’s not clogged (change your print nozzle if yours is easily swappable), make sure the heat is right on the hotend. Extruder skipping can happen if the material isn’t melting fast enough to have the right viscosity and hence the extruder just can’t squeeze it out fast enough. As a corollary, try slowing down your print and raising the temp a bit.

From the audio it almost sounds like the extruder is skipping like you may have a clog? What material is this? What temperatures, bed and hot end? Have you cleaned your bed recently?

It’s PLA. Whatever temperature the printer decided for the material and bed. It’s never been a problem.
It’s a cool super tack plate. Are you supposed to clean those?
