Customer Reviews
Favorite Spanish podcast
The show is interesting, Jim and May are enjoyable to listen to and just seem like nice people. The Spanish is slow enough to be accessible and yet not so slow as to feel unnatural.
Accessible for the beginning intermediate
Like most people have commented, the show is just right, in both speed and vocabulary, for intermediates who still need things to be a bit slower and clearer. Many shows that I have looked at are just too fast with words mumbled together in a rapid fire heap. Hopefully, someday I will be able to decipher this type of Spanish, as it seems like this is the way most Spanish speakers converse. But for now, these guys are just right.
Really Great Spanish Podcast
While learning Spanish during this year I’ve listened to and been exposed to dozens of podcasts and web shows. This particular show rises to the top.
The show is interesting and funny and clearly presented. It’s really easy to understand if you are an intermediate level Spanish speaker or above. For me, it’s like they are speaking to me in English - but they’re not! Interesting topics presented in intermediate level Spanish centered around the culture and accent of Mexico making it perfect for someone like me in Southern California.
