Highly recommendable
I just discovered your podcast by chance today and love it. Same standard as BBC Outlook that treats international topics in a neutral way. As someone that has lived and traveled a lot, this is the type of podcast that I like. Thank you!! Greetings from Spain
Eager for much more
I’m a Spanish guy living in Germany, thus “rough translation” is implicit in my daily life
I wish this were a weekly podcast rather than a seasonal one
I really appreciate your job, fantastic broadcaster bringing amazing content !
Simply a must
I am German, I lived in the US for 3 years, I live in Spain now closely working with Latin America. Shows like this one, that talk about cultural phenomena, different perspectives in such a respectful and transparent way are an absolute necessity in these times. I love every single episode and I wish there was more. Can’t wait for season 3. Thank you Gregory Warner and NPR!
