    ¿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?

Amazing podcast! The best for practising Spanish

I’ve dipped in and out of this podcast for the past 5 (?) years and it’s the best one I’ve listened to for improving my fluency. It’s so easy to follow along, clear to understand and I just really enjoy the normal day to day life topics. I also love the dynamic between Rob being English and Lis being Colombian and the different perspectives (both on culture and learning the language) that they both bring. They’re also clearly just really nice and great people! Couldn’t recommend this podcast more.

Rob and Liz are Awesome

Spanish Obsessed Intermediate is very well done all around. I’ve learned a ton of vocabulary and turns of phrase. The episodes are short and the hosts actually talk about interesting topics, which makes it easy to listen to one episode after another as part of a daily Spanish diet. Rob and Liz are clearly good, genuine people who have a passion for what they’re doing. They are a pleasure to listen to.

Rob and Lis are great!

I studied Spanish in high school and college and was looking for a podcast to improve my Spanish skills. This podcast fit the bill perfectly! Rob and Lis speak slowly and clearly, but it is still challenging. I learn new vocabulary in every episode and I’d say I comprehend about 80% of the podcast. They discuss fun and interesting topics and they are both very charming. A great podcast for improving your Spanish listening skills!
