  • Escúchalo, po!

    I lived in Chile as a teenager a million years ago (bajo la dictadura!) and it was one of the most life-changing experiences of my life. Opportunities for me to interact with Chileans nowadays are rare, and I relish every chance to hear that unique Chilean accent. This podcast is fun, funny, informative and SO chileno!

  • No casi perfecto — perfecto!

    So grateful for this podcast! I have a bachelor’s degree in Spanish and even spent a year living in Spain, feeling pretty good about my level of comprehension. However, then I started dating a Chilean and feeling absolutely lost when trying to participate in conversations with his family and friends. This podcast is exactly what I was looking for to help me learn Chilean slang on the sly, so I can laugh along with the group and more fully express myself and understand my partner.

  • The Podcast You Are Looking For! Trust Me!

    As a language teacher myself, I can tell you first-hand that this podcast is exactly what you’re looking for if you want to learn more about the Chilean dialect of Spanish. This fills a HUGE gap in the podcast industry that kind of mimics full immersion in a gentle way. Natalia speaks slowly and clearly enough for you to understand, but not slowly enough to make you feel patronized.

    The rich knowledge of the Chilean language and culture that you will learn keeps you wanting more and more! And ... more
