Intermediate Spanish from Rob and Lis of Spanish Obsessed. Couple Lis and Rob (Colombian and English) have a range of natural, engaging conversations in slow Spanish. We talk slow enough so that you can understand everything, but that doesn’t stop our conversations from being 100% authentic! We cover a variety of topics, equipping you in the process with super cool Spanish phrases which are actually used, as well as nuggets of grammar, pronunciation, and culture. Listen to Lis' crystalline Colombian Spanish, but we also talk with speakers with a variety of different accents. We update weekly, so be sure to subscribe using the button on the left to stay up to date. Also, check out our world of Spanish material, articles, culture and general Spanish love at SpanishObsessed.com!

¿Las protestas siguen funcionando?
Earlier this year, two protestors threw soup over the Mona Lisa. This follows a long list of similar protests of vandalism of artwork - they got our attention, but do the ends justify the means? And, are these types of protests still effective?
Customer Reviews
spanish obsessed review
Spanish Obsessed is simply the best resource out there for building vocabulary and increasing comprehension of spoken Spanish, in my opinion. I can listen to the same podcasts over and over and not only continue to enjoy them, but each time I get something new out of them. I had some knowledge of the language having spent time in Mexico 20 years ago, however the majority of my spanish was gone. These podcasts and the notes that go with them are absolutely perfect to bring my spanish back up to speed. The podcasts cover a range of subjects that give you a real taste of conversational spanish in day-to-day situations. Both Rob and Liz have clear, easy to listen to speaking voices, and are interesting and very often funny, which is a big plus in helping to motivate myself to keep learning and improving. They give me hope that I can get to the point of fluency with the language. Highly recommended.
Very helpful and well done
It’s simple, produced well enough, and it works. These two create good content and display it in a user friendly manner - making it easier to learn Spanish. I wish they also had translations of their podcasts in English, which would allow me to know that I am reading and hearing everything correctly, but I feel like that will come in the future. Bottom line, for free what more could I really ask for?
thank you.
while there does seem to be a lot of laughing, it’s helpful to have a podcast that’s in between the beginner level, which is far too slow, and the advanced level, which is far too fast. Perfect grade level for those who are still learning, you guys did a great job. I hope you plan to keep updating these.
