Venezia not Tunisia

I love your pods and glad your back at it. I’m not usually one to get uptight about pronunciation except in cases like this because it should be so easy for you as a Spanish speaker. 1. The vowels in Italian individually are pronounced identically to the vowels in Spanish, but you know that. I’m just covering all bases here. 2. The ‘v’ in Italian is going to be a ‘v’ like in English. You got that already. 3. This is the hard one to describe in writing. The ‘zia’ combo… think of tsetse fly. Focus on the 2nd syllable of tsetse and add the ‘a’ vowel sound like in Spanish to the tse. It’ll come out almost like “zeeah”. Or Spanish zia (my guess at Spanish). In Italian when you have zia the z is pronounced forcefully it is NOT slurred into an ‘s’ or a whimpy z (think of the difference between Pisa and Pizza). It’s a full on zee. And you say the zia combo fast. 4. Put it all together and you have - (using Anglo) vey ney tzeeah with emphasis probably on the nay I’m guessing.

Best US soccer historian

Honest perspective and insight, Ives is the best US soccer EXPERT in the media (if you only know soccer from playing FIFA or don’t remember soccer history before the 2014 World Cup, you are not an expert). He is truly the best in the business

Consistency is key!

Glad the consistency is back and hope it stays that way. Definitely recommend sticking to 2 shows a week and dropping the second one no later than Thursday evening. Anything later risks not getting heard due to the weekend fast approaching.
