I hear that when speaking English very fast, they can prepare the next sound(s)(consonant or vowel) at the time of pronouncing before sound. So there can be a partly blending of sounds when speaking very fast. Is that correct?

It is not the most efficient way to speak English.

Like your open MIT lecturer haste is needed to cover all the points sometimes.
For me it is the most pleasant form to listen to in terms of spoken English.
