The core design concept of this podcast series is brevity. Its just right for me. My friend worked as a spanish interpreter and I often find myself outside of conversations feeling like an ugly American. My plan is to learn enough spanish to speak with her and her spanish-speaking friends and family at dinner someday.

The variety of two speakers with different roles works well in this podcast. There is more going on here than a conversation. We have a master and a learner to make the program more interesting.

I also enjoy how the teacher grounds new vocabulary words by drawing word pictures. This helps us remember the information presented. Listen for the happy cows!
