The first clip sounded exactly like a flooded engine that needed the restart.

Then the second clip sounded like since it’s running (rough) but with a nasty exhaust leak? Maybe you have a bent valve, burnt valve or timing off on one of the secondary chains.

Prior to your first post on 4/13/24, how was the car running? Is it possible that it had overheated?
