While exploring Pashto links, I came across this

They're short, about five minutes long, video clips of TV news, originally broadcast for native speakers.
A full transcript, a translation into English, and a vocabulary list are included.
You can download everything.
They give a free trial access too.
They seem to be adding one new episode a week for a language.
The following languages are covered:

Re: Any resources for learning Pashto?
Scola looks like it could be interesting, but it mentions a "free trial" without saying how much it will be once it's no longer free. Do you happen to know what the pricing is like?

Re: Any resources for learning Pashto?
In another thread, you mentioned difficulties finding information on Pashto resources on the old HTLAL. Here's an example of the style of custom google search you need to do to find stuff on the old site.
Paste this into the google search box:
site:how-to-learn-any-language.com pashto
Abd here's a link to that search result
https://www.google.com/webhp?sourceid=chrome-instant&ion=1&espv=2&ie=UTF-8#q=site%3Ahow-to-learn-any-language.com%20pashto

Re: Any resources for learning Pashto?
Thank you, tangleweeds.
I already did it a few days ago. Had a look at all the threads. Not much there. I didn't expect much, but you never know.
I'd like a pronunciation course (minimal pairs).
I can somehow manage with the rest.
I've got 'A reference grammar of Pashto' and Pashto-English Dictionary (55000 entries), Conversational Pashto, Rosetta Stone.
Gloss and Scola are very good.
