    Fantastic content and transcript
    I’m a 34 level beginner and I love this podcast. The content is interesting and clearly spoken. There are many words I don’t know but if I read along on the podcast I always know what is being said and over time I learn new words organically. Thanks for this great resource!

    Great podcast
    Discovered this in my podcast search and listened for the first time this morning. Really enjoyed it. I like the content. Interesting stories not just boring grammar or dialog. Just what I was looking for. Keep up the good work. Kate

    The BEST of the least!!!
    Ive found very few podcast in Spanish on the Podcast app that are specifically for people trying to learn Spanish, at any level, yet this podcast meets all my needs as an intermediate learner! There are episodes specifically for beginners and those who are intermediate/advanced. He puts the description in English just to make sure the english natives understand 100% of the content and each episode is particularly interesting and culturally enriching. And, not too long either! He even translates words especially hard to understand in Spanish to English while speaking. I enjoy each one.

    Beginner’s Corner is GREAT!
    Now that the Beginner’s Corner episodes have been added, it makes this podcast a whole lot more valuable at least for beginners like me. The best part is the scripts. It allows me to take the entire episode and adapt it to me, so now I can talk in greater detail about myself, about my family, etc. I can get pretty creative with the transcript, make meaning worksheets out of it - create short quizzes and other dialogues. It’s awesome!! Thanks for this resource!!

    Fun and engaging podcast for any Spanish level!
    The episodes are very interesting and easy to follow along with. I recently started learning Spanish again and I’m really enjoying the Beginner’s Corner episodes. The pace, method, and range of vocabulary are perfect for a beginner level student. In other episodes, they discuss many different interesting aspects of Spanish speaking countries. I love that I’m able to learn more of the language while also learning about Spanish culture. There are transcripts available in both Spanish and English for each episode. I enjoy being able to read along as I listen to the episodes. Shandon is also a great Spanish teacher. I recommend his classes to anyone who is new to learning Spanish or looking to improve their Spanish.
