- [Narrator] Learning Spanish?
Today, at FluentU we are exploring
four great podcasts
created by native speakers,
for native speakers that you can use
to boost your Spanish learning.
Let's get started with a
topnotch news program in Spanish.
(speaking in foreign language)
Is actually, produced by the
French National Radio Service
but is an amazing source
for learning Spanish.
Stories are global, carefully
researched and quite diverse.
It may be a challenge for some learners
to approach the variety of Spanish accents
and the speed of speech.
Although, the reporters
speak quite clearly.
These podcasts are updated
multiple times a day
on the RFI website so you always have lots
of news to choose from.
If you're a traveler, you're
going to love Nomadas.
Each episode is essentially,
an audio documentary
on a small corner of the world.
Complete with interviews,
history and travel tips.
Especially, for getting
off the beaten path.
You can of course, run
a search of old episodes
and use them as a travel guide
as you prepare for your next trip.
The show's host have a
distinctive Spanish accent.
But you will hear a variety
of accents in the interviews.

you'll love FluentU.
FluentU takes authentic Spanish videos,
like commercials, music
videos and inspiring talks
and turns them into learning experiences.

speakers pronounce words,
phrases and sentences and
practice repeating them out loud.
You won't have to wonder
about how a word is used

Next, we recommend an amazing
music podcast, "Alt.Latino."
The show mostly has Spanish music,
although it does have
some Portuguese, English
and Indigenous languages.
If you are a language
learner who gets motivated
by learning music and
lyrics this show is for you.
It showcases a plethora
of different genres,
often, with extremely famous
artists from Latin America.

It even includes some podcasts
that I don't discuss in this video.
Last, let's take a look at
"Democracy Now! en Espanol."
You may have heard this name
because of the more popular
English version of this news source.
The show often, covers topics like justice
or international relations
that are underrepresented
in other news sources.
The stories often include English snippets
so it's a great podcast
for beginner learners
who may be a bit intimidated
by other podcasts in a list.
The only thing left to do now,
is to get your headphones
and get searching.
