Podcasts in Spanish.

There's some good Spanish listening downloadable at BBC Estudio 834.
"BBC Estudio 834 es un espacio de encuentro y conversación.

Un espacio para entrevistas, charlas informales con personalidades del mundo hispano que han destacado en la política, deportes, cultura y entretenimiento.

En el corazón del servicio latinoamericano de la BBC, el 834 es el estudio en el que técnicos y productores hemos transmitido por años nuestra programación al mundo de habla hispana."

There's a wealth of Spanish podcasts on topical, bizarre and humorous subjects at la Aradio.

If you like your Spanish listening spiced there's some to warm your ears at Sex Podcast.

There's an interesting podcast idea at the albimist - a serial story in Spanish, English and German (parallel audio?). I'm not sure about the accents.

Ben and Marina produce regular podcasts in Spanish at Notes from Spain - with transcripts available.

Choose your own subject of interest at Directorio de podcasts en español y podcasting en castellano. And at the smart new directory: pod sonoro.

Roland from Poland.

I'm in a work loop, so posts are rare. I'm listening though, and because it's good I'm posting this, even though it's off topic.

'Roland from Poland - Asylum Seeker'. Rightly described as 'innovative breakbeat tunes' - from Tim Taylor.

The critics say:
"A triumph of DIY ethics" The Wire
"One of the most impressive albums of the year." Venue

Free to download at laundry-room (visit 'The Sink'): well worthwhile.
