I stumbled onto this podcast while trying to find a podcast I could listen together with my Korean immigrant mom. As a Korean-American who grew up in the US, I only spoke Korean at home (at around a first grader’s level) and my parents’ English wasn’t great. Over time it became harder and harder to connect with them due to the language and cultural barrier. Now that I’m almost 40, I’m making efforts to bridge that gap by strengthening my Korean language skills. It’s really fun listening with my mom and getting different things out of each episode. For me, it’s the listening comprehension and fun tidbits about culture. For my mom, it’s being able to connect what she heard on the Korean episode to the English episode. Also, we marvel at how kindly and thoughtfully Jonson and Eunice speak to each other as husband and wife^^ Anyway, just wanted to note my appreciation and give some context! Thank you for being such a pleasure to listen to :)

I’m planning to move to Korea in about a year’s time to pursue a Bachelor’s degree, and I’ve been self-studying Korean consistently for a little over a year but my listening/speaking skills haven’t improved nearly as much as that of my reading…until now :) I was recommended this podcast and it’s actually worked wonders. It’s one thing to listen to a podcast to enhance one’s ability to understand a language, it’s another thing to genuinely enjoy it. You guys make learning so fun. Thank you! 도와주셔서 갑사합니당! ♡

I love this pod! I am learning Korean for fun and I am sooo happy I found SpongeMind. Jonson and Jeremy are hilarious and they have such good chemistry as they chat about life and language learning. I also dig all of the analogies they throw into their teaching because I love a good analogy! I especially appreciate how they tackle language learning as a whole: cultural influences, pronunciation, etc. It’s so much more than memorizing vocabulary or learning grammar. I would highly recommend this pod to anyone wanting to learn Korean!

This podcast is very user friendly and helped me of how i should learn a language

This episode is so great and it made me felt that I can do this learn another language. Such a encouragement, motivation and inspired. Thank you so much :)

I love this show! I just discovered it last week and every time I listen, it is so interesting and I always have something new to learn. Whether it be Korean or just languages in general. Thank you!

I appreciate the time you take out to make this podcast possible. Enjoy the language learning principles I have gotten from you guys. As well as the pod episode being the same subject discussed in Korean. Helps me get plenty of listening practice in.

I love this podcast they break down there teaching methods and give great ideas to help you to improve your learning abilities.

I've been listening to this podcast for several months now (since Jonson and Jeremy appeared on GO! BILLY GO!). The content of their conversations is really insightful, but also fun and relatable. Sometimes I listen to the English episode first to understand the context for the Korean episode, which is a unique feature of this podcast I haven't really found in other Korean learning resources. The single negative comment I can make is that episodes aren't uploaded very frequently (probably cuz Jonson and Jeremy are doing other awesome things with their time). I would love a weekly episode, but am content to listen to old episodes for extensive listening practice :)

A lot of content and a pleasure to listen to. Keep up the good work!
