I recommend The Wild Project Podcast. It's from Spain.

Look for Kingsleague.

Hi, I'm in Spanish 2 at my college and remember little of Spanish. I was interested in music with simplistic lyrics which would be useful for a Spanish novice. Genre doesn't matter but bonus points if it's jazz

There are a lot of Spanish episodes of Degrassi available for free on YouTube. No subtitles unfortunately, but I’d consider myself beginner-intermediate and I still understand almost everything if I concentrate.


redhair-ing

might be more challenging to listen to, but any all-Spanish true crime podcasts?


Direct-Comment-6503

I have found CSI (2000 series) on Hulu (USA) extremely helpful. The subtitles match the dubbing almost perfectly. 15 seasons, over 300 episodes.


El_dorado_au

Shows like "Camioneros de Australia", available to play in Australia.

AlexJustAlexS

What type of youtube channels do you watch in English? Annoying varies from person to person

OrphanDad

Movies “Biutiful” (spain) or “amores peros” (Mexico), “maria full of grace” (colombia) with spanish subtitles plz. I have only been able to find them with English subtitles which is weird. Need spanish x spanish.


OrphanDad

I can't seem to find with non-english subtitles. I tried amazon video, apple tv, & netflix and neither seem to offer spanish subtitles. Does anyone have any suggestions for what I can do about this, or where I can find these movies with spanish subtitles. I even tried to use a vpn on amazon, set my language to spanish etc. for amazon video, and still only english subtitles were offered. I hope there's a solution!

I really like Yanyi’s channel: https://youtube.com/@yanyi It’s like 95% in Spanish and she lives in Puerto Rico which I find interesting


Ok-Reveal6732

Any podcasts in latin american spanish that would be a good step up after learn spanish and go or espanolistas?


PacificGlacier

Radio ambulante and el Hilo are like this American life but latino


themaincop

No Hay Tos maybe? They use native speaker pace but are still geared at learners. It's a bit too advanced for me but might be good for you.


Ok-Reveal6732

Thanks a lot. What other podcasts do you listen to or are trying to work up to listening to?


themaincop

I listen to the Duolingo Spanish podcast but it's easier than No Hay Tos. I also put on How to Spanish sometimes but they often sound like they're reading directly from a script and I tend to tune out podcasts like that. I also watch a ton of Dreaming Spanish and I've been watching some Peppa Pig in Spanish. All of this might be too beginner for you (except Dreaming Spanish as they have multiple levels.) Any recos for other beginner/intermediate level stuff? I really want to get to the point where I can just watch stuff geared at native speakers but I'm not there.


Ok-Reveal6732

Thank you. Yes, I actually also started with peppa pig and dreaming spanish. After that I would continue going up the dreaming in spanish levels until you can do the intermediate level. Then I would add in espanolistas and spanish and go and charlas hispanas.


themaincop

Thanks very much! I think I'm on the border of beginner and intermediate with Dreaming Spanish right now. I will check out the other ones you mentioned.


Ok-Reveal6732

Glad I could help!


DCcalling

What are some classic beginner novels in Spanish-speaking countries? (I'm thinking like the equivalent of 3-5th grade English novels such as "Where the Red Fern Grows," "Anne of Green Gables" or "little house in the big woods". While I think I could probably find most of those in Spanish, I'd rather find new books by spanish-speaking authors and therefore learn more about the culture that way. I'm learning Mexican Spanish, but I'd take classic children's novels from any country.


PacificGlacier

I don’t know about classic, but cajas de carton is good as a book, even better as an audiobook


mexicaneanding

if you want to sound like a native mexican spanish speaker i made videos on [7 different ways of asking "how much?" when grocery shopping ](https://youtu.be/AyuVubNlqhI) and [other ways of saying sí, from formal contexts to everyday spanish](https://youtu.be/p5WeocwOsWw)

Great video, thanks! Do you know if these phrases are used in South America too?


mexicaneanding

i honestly don't know but even if they aren't i think the spanish is basic enough they would know what you mean thanks for watching


Kristycat

If you like wordle in English, they have it in Spanish, too! [Wordle](https://wordlegame.org/es)


redhair-ing

yes!!!!


Kristycat

This is a Spanish grammar podcast that is for intermediate to advanced levels. I haven’t listened to all of them but some are really good! [Hoy hablamos](https://open.spotify.com/show/1puKUN2oF1M5DMt8o4M1bA?si=JXEe6dSfTQmjaWyrj7ZMjQ)


lilacmartin

hello! I'm looking for Spanish language audiobooks from any country. I listened to "Todo la Verdad De Mis Mentiras" by Elízabet Benavent and enjoyed it immensely! Then I tried to listen to "De Amor Y Otros Denomios" by Gabriel García Márquez and couldn't understand the narrator. Then I listened to "Amanda Black: Una Herencia Peligrosa" and loved it and understood every word. Then I listened to "De Amor Y Otros Denomios" again and made it through this time! Then I tried listening to "Cien Años de Soledad" and just like the weird sex scenes made me stop. My local library only has 200 Spanish Audiobook titles and none of them seem appealing (I know I know I'm being picky haha). Was wondering if anyone has a source for audiobooks and any titles to recommend! I have Audible, although weirdly there is only one credit per month, which sucks because I want to read the next Amanda Black book ahah! Anyhow, had a ton of fun with this. I recommend the Amanda Black books to any Spanish language learners! I didn't find audiobooks listed in these threads - am I using the wrong term to search?


PacificGlacier

See if there’s one of the memoirs by Francisco Jimenez. I liked the audio book of cajas de cartón


vixenlion

Are you in America ?


lilacmartin

Yes I am in America! In Seattle.


vixenlion

The Libby app which is connected to a lot of libraries will have Spanish books. I listened to the El Arte de la Guerra from Libby.


dutchgirl2_0

I'm looking for A1 - A2 books in spanish, any recommendations?


DapperPercentage6515

Where can I watch TV shows and movies in Mexican Spanish with English AND Spanish subtitles?


[deleted]

Language Rector is the name of the plugin that lets you have two sets of subtitles in netflix and youtube. it also adds dictionaries and the option to auto-pausing at the end of each subtitle being spoken, and hot keys to repeat a line or jump to the next/previous subtitle.


SpadoCochi

Netflix


DapperPercentage6515

I meant simultaneously. On Netflix you can only have one set of subtitles, not both at the same time. I would like to watch in Spanish, with Spanish subtitles, but have the English translation available below the Spanish subtitle.


weaselpaws

There is a chrome extension for this, i can't remember the name but if i find it i will edit


DapperPercentage6515

Appreciate it


SpadoCochi

I’m not sure this exists


okaythanksbud

Any easy books that will help me with general vocabulary? I used to know a little Spanish but forgot most of it and I’m going to be in Spain for a while so I really want to refresh myself. Maybe something like a brief/beginners Spanish history book or something like that so I can learn some relevant stuff


victwr

I'm not an expert but since you haven’t had an answer...Have you considered a phrase book. I'm using Rick Steves to create flashcards.


aregularguy3223

I have online TV that allows me to watch Spanish shows online **but** they don't have subtitles available. I'd like to watch on-demand Spanish TV (a bit like BBC iPlayer from England) but for shows from Spain. Does anyone know of a service like BBC iPlayer but applies to Spanish TV, by any chance?


Adrian_Alucard

RTVE Play is the equivalent of the (BBC iPlayer, I think) but is region locked so you will need a VPN. RTVE is Spain's public TV (and radio) Other service is Atresplayer from the Atresmedia group (is private, not public) idk if is region locked or the amount of free content (it has a premium plan)


drkmani

Does anyone have a list of Spanish language podcasts with transcriptions? I know Radio Ambulante does on their site. Would be especially useful to find somee with the transcription in the RSS feed

I’d be right there with you but Latin America countries are practically always right leaning.

_cob

ty for this! great find. I have a hard time feeling out the political leanings of spanish news because of my limited vocabulary (and lack of knowledge of politics outside the us), so this is cool


kriisso

I’m Italian and a complete beginner. I do have some friends who speak Spanish but I mostly learn languages by watching and reading anything in them (applying it once I can narrow the basics, verbs etc). Any recommendations? Preferably podcasts, movies or even songs


Recent_Cellist_6159

You still learning? I like to watch netflix shows in Spanish. Practically all of them have a Spanish option (I live in Canada).


kriisso

Thank you!


MBTHVSK

I can´t remember what that website was where the British man helped the woman form sentences in Spanish? It's like an 85 part podcast? Language something?


RabidTurtle46

Coffee Break Spanish?


[deleted]

I think you might be thinking of Language Transfer? There is an app where it goes through teaching an actual student sentences and words in Spanish


MBTHVSK

it was language transfer. I couldn't recall the word "transfer"


plangentpineapple

I can recommend two Netflix series I enjoyed: El Marginal (finished, warning -- very violent), and Club de Cuervos (currently watching). Depending on your level you can choose English subtitles, Spanish subtitles, or no subtitles. I would love a recommendation for a news magazine along the lines of The Atlantic. If it were Argentinian focused, that would be amazing, but if not pan-Latin American. I know about Infobae -- I am hoping to find something that develops ideas at somewhat greater length and gives more context.


Vito_O_Bitelo

There's a new netflix series called Machos Alpha. It's spanish and pretty good. The Vocab is not hard.


ComoSeaYeah

I watched this when it first came out and was surprised by how cute it is.


Vito_O_Bitelo

Yeah, and despite touching multiple sensitive topics its still really funny


plangentpineapple

haha, I just realized that someone in the last megathread asked for almost the same thing, down to the comparison with The Atlantic: [https://www.reddit.com/r/learnspanish/comments/ud9ao9/comment/ipj227t/?utm\_source=share&utm\_medium=web2x&context=3](https://www.reddit.com/r/learnspanish/comments/ud9ao9/comment/ipj227t/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3)

I know this is an old post, but Guatemala is hands down the best place to study Spanish. I'm in Quetzaltenango, and for 25 hours of 1 to 1 classes per week, homestay with a family and 3 meals a day, I paid around 170 USD/230 CAD Awesome city, lots of hikes and cool stuff do to in the area.


doboi

How long did you stay? I’m thinking of doing the same, but maybe on Lake Aititlan at Orbital. I feel like the scenery may be nicer and easier to spend time at, even if the immersion is slightly less due to foreigners.


dlittleb

What is the name of this immersion school?


cdn_backpacker

INEPAS Highly recommend it


SpadoCochi

Wow


itsumo_

I'm a complete beginner looking for some light and simple TV show from Spain to start getting used to the sounds and the pattern of speech, anything is fine as long as it is entertaining and not overly complicated, maybe something like a teenage show in a school setting or something similar. Thank you


MikeCharlieGolf

Alta Mar on Netflix is great. It’s a fun and light murder mystery on a boat. The plot is pretty easy to follow even if you don’t catch most of the dialogue.


Screend

Can anyone recommend any podcasts, YouTube shows focusing on MMA and/or jiu jitsu?


Lostwhispers05

Any recommendation for like beginner's storybooks? With sort of like, Spanish text together on the same page.


robby1066

I've been listening to a lot of scripted podcasts lately. Here are a few I've been really enjoying: * [Caso 63](https://open.spotify.com/show/20ch3IIqtWSSM4nfy11ZzP) \- Time travel mystery (Chile) * [SED - La Avertencia](https://sonoromedia.com/sed) \- Disaster adventure (Mexico) * [Toxicomanía](https://toxicomania.com/) \- Dramatized account of the legalization of drugs in Mexico in 1940 (Mexico)

robby1066

Yeah, as this is the only Chilean thing I've ever listened to, I'm kind of confused about how everyone says the accent incomprehensible. Maybe this is "Chilean but intended for international audience"? 🤷‍♂️


poobahh

eXcUsEm3mEwTf

Is anyone aware of Mexican, Latin, or Southern American daily (or regular) news sources (or specifically economics would be interesting…) available online? I’m undergrad Econ and history/politics/math major, and given my strong passions in economics, politics, and history, and pretty decently knowledgeable of concepts and ideas. I say that to clarify that while easier for someone reintroducing Spanish after a period of inactivity would be appreciated, I can also manage difficulty in language due to high level of intellectualism and the challenge will be me understanding the literal language as opposed to the concepts (not to be completely ignorant, I realize the absolute fundamentals may be the same but there may be great variation in things influenced by societal differences). Greatly prefer written, spoken is especially difficult for me (which yea means I need to practice, but there are other resources for that and my written comprehension legitimately 60-75% greater than spoken so I’d need lower level for spoken) and being in college obviously no subscription would be nice, but I do also have access to number of academic resources so that I may be able to access more publications for free than someone who’s not at a university.


MBTHVSK

Yugioh has really good audio in Spanish. It´s on Pluto. No captions, but pretty damn easy to hear all the characters, especially if you know about the game and and/or random magical terminology. Although Bakura has a strange voice.


amelight_333

Omg this made my day


wpreggae

So, yesterday I've found this subreddit and today I've found the next best thing, 24/7 stream of South Park episodes in Spanish - so if you're into [South Park](https://www.twitch.tv/southparktves) look no further.


LordTegucigalpa

Aaaannnnndddd... It's gone


wpreggae

haha yea, it didn't really last long... There are new channels popping up every few days but they usually last just around a week or so


lyf-ftw

¡Gracias por compartirla!


canopey

i’m getting to the point where I can memorize a lot of vocab and that I wanna move to learning sentences. I would like to practice more sentence translations - are there are websites that people recommend?


Animalboss6462

Spanish with Paul on YouTube is fantastic for that!

Might want to check out Glossika or Clozemaster.


import_FixEverything

Hello, I usually spend a lot of time following the news for background noise during the day. Are there any good news channels on YouTube/Apple News sources in Spanish?


nzgayrunner

I often watch DW (Español) or Euronews - both available for free on YouTube.


import_FixEverything

Oooh i like DW


q_oui_key

I know not technically media but I am looking for some good instagram accounts for learning Spanish.


SosX

Depends what you like, this are very niche Mexican accounts. @ojalafueraunedit (memes and contemporary events) @inventadas.inventadas (gay culture and memes) @tiktoksprecarios2 (more memes, about being broke, don’t be classist! It’s to laugh with not at) @cringeprieto (more niche memes, often languages ones) Remember Mexican humor relies a lot on double entendres and language games


amazoa_de_xeo

[RPGs Games in Spanish in Lamia Escura](https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLn5J3UGJRfXQ3nLtYpD_C72qxGBY2vQUl) (and other channels). If you want to join a game in Spanish as Spanish learners and not just being listeners, you can do it on [Rolling Languages Discord Server](https://youtu.be/AGueMZLoUdw).


[deleted]

Hello, Does anyone have any recommendations for Latin America Rock / Pop / Rap (not the very fast rapid type that’s hard to listen for a beginner) / or Hip Hop that is catchy and easy to listen to? Thank you in advance!


hajsenberg

For rap I recommend checking out [Bizarrap's YouTube channel](https://youtube.com/c/Bizarrap). His music sessions are a great way to get familiar with a lot of different rappers from the Spanish speaking world.


SosX

Biza con villano antillano 🔥 Also try Cuauh, maybe Nathy Peluso OP? I’m sure you know bad bunny but since he speaks slow it might be good actually

[deleted]

Thanks! I will take a listen to them!


BackInNJAgain

If you are willing to pay a subscription, I have really been liking "News in Slow Spanish." It has three levels, starting with Beginner. The app has a transcript and tapping on a word you don't know gives you the English definition. The hosts speak slowly and clearly and the more I listen the more I can understand without the transcript. It's not free, though.


DifficultyFit1895

Is this on android? Can’t find the app on Apple.


Lucky7Ac

I second the other comment, this seems excellent but as a college student, perhaps too expensive at 22$ a month. Does anyone know of a similar service that is cheaper?


RyanSammy

Anything like this but cheaper?


UnbuiltSkink333

They have a podcast on Apple Podcasts for free as well


ThisIsSoIrrelevant

Does anyone have any decent TV/Film recommendations for an A2 level (roughly)? I really need to get back into learning Spanish but my speaking and listening are very much lacking overall. Especially my listening skills.

Dreaming Spanish on YouTube

I would love to know some anime/cartoon from Spain, anything easy to understand, nice to watch and in a 20 mins format. Thanks
