Apparently YouTube transcodes 48kHz sample-rate to 44.1kHz

Odds are you can't hear above 16kHz anyway, so you're not losing out.
The signal above 16kHz could just be artefact noises.

If it's a modern computer the headphone socket is also the mic socket.

What I am looking for is a broad brushstroke of an 'Effect' or Setting that will trim (lower) those extreme sounds down ... Can anyone point me in a direction to go on this? If...

@Trebor ... how do you find the frequency of the noise, in this case 8.6khz? Audacity can display sound as a waveform, (the default setting), or as a spectrogram which shows the frequency content in a multi-color display. The constant-noise appears as a continuous horizontal band on the spectrogram...

Where the signal grows weaker, the static grows stronger, that's just how it works. So missing portions of the spectrogram will have static instead, where the signal is weaker in spectrogram, there will be stronger static. Audacity can do that: cyclically cross-fade signal with noise with this plug...

Could you please open the project in Audacity and tell me what settings you would chose to eliminate static... There is a constant cicada-like* noise at about 8.6kHz, which can be reduced with a notch-filter ... zoumerela, before-after notch filter.png zoumerela, before-after notch filter.flac [ * ...

Coop Series - The Wrong Dead Man Sample 4.wav (1.68 MiB)

That sounds usable to me, but IMO needs de-clicking & a little noise-reduction ...
