Beginning Chinese
John DeFrancis worked at Seton Hall University in the Department of Asian Studies’ Chinese Studies program, authoring textbooks for Mandarin Chinese in the early 1960s. John DeFrancis was hired by Dr. John B. Tsu, the founding chair of the Department of Asian Studies. At that time, the Institute of Far Eastern Studies, which was founded in 1951, acted as a leader in the US with respect to teaching Asian Studies and conducting research on the topics in the field. The original recordings were produced at Seton Hall University in Fahy Hall on reel-to-reel tapes. Over 100 hours of audio material were recorded. Between 2008-2010, the reel-to-reel tapes were digitized to help preserve the audio materials, as the condition of the tapes began to deteriorate. As such, you may hear some background noise, clicks and other auditory imperfections in the recordings.
Where are the podcasts

I have the books and was told this is where to get the audio-it’s listed, but no podcasts available?
This is an accompanying audio files

This podcast series is not a course by itself. These are the accompanying audio files for the book Beginning Chinese by Dr. John Defrancis. The book, along with the entire series, Begining Chinese Reader, Intermediate Chinese, Intermediate Chinese Reader, Advance Chinese, Advance Chinese Reader, even though they are quite old, still the best. Materials may be a bit outdated and China has long moved away from wearing Mao clothings but the method of reenforcing what you have learned in the past chapters is still relevant today.
An Excellent Resource

These audio files are well-done and dove-tail nicely with the De Francis’ “Beginning Chinese” Revised Edition. These course materials are in my opinion the 24K gold-standard for learning Chinese.

This course began with a lot of vocal patterns that were fine because they were just to practice your vocals. Later, they expected me to answer back when they asked small questions, of which I had no answers because I don't speak Chinese and they gave no inclination as to what I was saying earlier in the lesson. There must be more material somewhere else because I learned nothing after a half hour.
