Olly Richards: Introducing the StoryLearning Spanish Podcast!

Today’s an exciting day, as I’m launching my brand new podcast:

StoryLearning Spanish

(
https://el2.convertkit-mail.com/c/4zu0o ... VISW9SekpV
)

If you’re looking for a fun, brain-friendly way to immerse
yourself in Spanish every day… then look no further!

Click here to listen on Apple Podcasts now (
https://el2.convertkit-mail.com/c/4zu0o ... VISW9SekpV
)

The StoryLearning Spanish podcast is a daily Spanish podcast for
intermediate level learners (A2-B1).

That’s right. We’ll be publishing a new episode every single day!

The podcast centres around an original story in Spanish written
by our podcast host, Sofía, and it tells the story of six people
from different backgrounds and different places, who meet by
chance in San Sebastián and end up on an unexpected road trip
around Spain together.

Every episode will follow the same structure.

* First of all, you’re going to have one narration of the story.
* Then you’ll hear the glossary of difficult words.
* Finally you’ll hear a repetition of the story so you get a
chance to listen to it again without having to rewind

So there you have it…

A fun, exciting and natural way to immerse yourself in Spanish
every single day and improve your skills fast.

We couldn’t be prouder of the podcast we’ve produced and we’re
very excited to share it with the world.

Click here to listen on Apple Podcasts now (
https://el2.convertkit-mail.com/c/4zu0o ... VISW9SekpV
)

By the way....

I’d encourage you to check out this podcast even if you’re not
learning Spanish.

Reason is, I might consider making the podcast in other languages
too, if it proves popular! So give it a listen and let me know if
you like the format
