I’m taking a Spanish class weekly online with a teacher in Guatemala and info Duolingo daily and these podcasts are my favorite part of my Spanish education! Enriching stories and that challenge my skills with just the right amount of context help from Martina Castro. I always look forward to listening!

I listened to one and didn’t get anything

Listening to the podcast in Spanish is so helpful to improve my listening, grammar and language skills. The transcripts on the website really help me with the words my ears don’t pick up yet. Thanks!

If I could do zero stars I would. LGBTQ?! Transgender?! What the heck ?! For starters is everyone brainwashed by Satan ?!!!!!!! A man and a woman are the only ones meant to be together. Oy. I am Messianic Jewish which is the same thing as Christian. What happened to our souls? Free Will really messed us up. But if you are Christian also and listening to this and agree with this stuff then you are not living your life as a Christian. You are living your life as the devil’s slave. He ( Satan) uses small sinful things that seem ok at the beginning until you are fully blinded ,so that you can’t tell which is wrong and what is right. I am not trying to force you into my faith I am only warning you. Keep faithful to the Lord until the end of this idiotic world. And he will protect you and take care of you. I used to be one of the devil’s slaves, a film covering my eyes and heart. But now I am FREE. Don’t you want to not have a care in the world or know that the king of kings is your father who will never abandon you or forsake you. God is forgiving. He says you are His. You are priceless in His eyes.

Really fantastic to practice listening comprehension. Love the stories. And 10 stars for the inclusivity! If you’re threatened by LGBTQ+ existing and being represented, that’s a you problem.

Please bring these back!!! I’ve listened to all seasons repeatedly and learn, love more each time!

So fun as I learn more Spanish being able to better understand the stories. The stories are so good even my boyfriend who speaks Spanish deals with the slow speaking (to him) because of how good the stories are! Thank you so much. Never stop please.

I’m currently working on my fluency in Spanish, and as a non-binary Lesbian, the comments on “LGBT is not ok for kids OR adults” and “this is obviously propaganda” are homophobic and bigoted. If you don’t like it, don’t do it. Otherwise it’s great, and has helped my learning.

Far left radicalization at its finest. Trying to indoctrinate our youth one podcast at a time.

This podcast is amazing I love all of the inclusivity to LGBTQ and BIPOC it is an absolutely amazing podcast thank you I love everything about it and now I speak fluent Spanish -Ivy

Why putting lgbt on all the stories ? It use to be a good show I used to listen to the show every night before going to bed. all the stories have LGBT characters and it’s not just one story lots of them .Little kids are listening to some of those stories 2 .So pls make less Lgbt characters

The educational value for Spanish learning is very high. However, the editors and producers frequently romanticize left wing socialist ideology while speaking negatively about any conservative government. Clearly, the writers have an agenda which severely detracts from the mission of language learning.

It’s fine to include sexual orientation but why just this area? Why not multiple spouses? Political ideology? Use slogans as learning points? Example: Western nations are colonialists? If you want to be inclusive, limiting where you do so is hypocritical and distracting. Stick to ‘generic’ and empower each student to apply their unique focus for themself. But I love this app.

This is a good podcast. The reviews saying that this is "far left propaganda" need to realize that no it is not. This podcast is inclusive, not "propaganda". I appreciate the diversity in these stories, especially the LGBTQ+ representation (I am personally non-binary and bi). This is an amazing podcast and I love it! So don't listen to those reviews saying this is propaganda (I actually saw one saying that this is 'marxist' ;-;), those reviewers need to grow up

Ich lieben das Podcast, ich komme aus Deutschland 🇩🇪 ich mache duolingo für Englisch und Spanisch ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ sterne

I did my Spanish so please no vanish

The first episode says that it is reviewing a movie that is rated R but the review is for all ages. Then it immediately goes into explaining how the protagonist of the movie are gay and they’re dealing with homophobia in Cuba. That is not appropriate for all ages. That’s not even appropriate for adults but here we are.don’t say something is suitable for all ages and then start digging into issues about sexual preferences.

Listening to these pods within the Duolingo app as lessons was one of my favorite features that you removed. Please add them back.

II'm I'm I'm e

Her voice was speed up and I couldn’t understand her. It was just too fast

why he’s got an whole podcast and i’m standing 9hours an day

Yes I do.

Bro Doulingo is literally the best app ever don’t hate on it for those of you saying it isn’t even that good you are wrong it’s perfect and before Doulingo I didn’t even think of learning a new language but thanks to Doulingo I am getting so good at Spanish ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

I enjoyed the podcast but I think it was a little past my understanding I did enjoy it

I missed my Spanish lesson

Duolingo teaches only 2 aspects of learning a language. There are 4 aspects. Learning to speak, sentences (which Duolingo covers) and others…

“You missed your Spanish lesson. You know what happens now!”

Doulingo has made me want to learn a new language before doulingo I didn’t even come to the thought of learning Spanish but ever since I got doulingo something changed and you can learn multiple languages at once from Arabic to Korean doulingo has it all!

Ya better not shout! Ya better not cry! You’re not goin’ back home tonight! (Tune of Santa clause is coming to town)

DUO IS A GOOD APP TO LEARN A NEW LANGUAGE BUT DAWG THIS BRID IS EVRYWHERE EVEN AT MY LOCAL TRAIN STATION-

I love this app! It helps me learn all my favorite languages every day.

Duolingo is a good app

It is actually good you should listen to it

Pretty sad 🥲🥹

I love it ❤️❤️❤️it’s a beautiful language ❤️❤️❤️

Thank you for bringing all of the education that I need

It is so worthwhile to listen to, and it is so heartwarming, fun, and inspiring to listen to. And you can also change the tempo! I love it!

This podcast is great. I have really enjoyed all of the great stories. The language learning opportunity is great too. But, to hear the experiences of people that are seldom heard is the real highlight here. Learn from the language lessons but more importantly learn from the lives of others. One of my favorite podcasts!!

I been used too but I’m not really like it because is not really fun

The podcast helps the intermediate learner, but the stories themselves are so touching that, even without learning the language they are worth hearing. Bravo!
