I would like to take this moment to point the members of this chat to an interesting YouTube channel where one has taken it upon himself to record a reading of the 6 volumes of Rav ovadiah Yosef's yechave data, the original shut chazon ovadiah, and many other seforim of his such as chazon ovadiah and commentary on avot.

With the sefer Torah opened up to Haazinu the kohen made the bracha "Asher bachar banu" and the Baal Koreh began reading Haazinu.

The Torah was rolled a couple columns to Vezos Habracha and the kohen started reciting the bracha "Asher nosan lanu." Naturally, again everybody started yelling "Asher bachar banu," but the kohen self assuredly shook his head and continued with the bracha he had begun. The Baal Koreh read the first reading and then the oleh made the bracha "Asher nosan lanu" again.
