Needs some work.
I speak quite a bit of German and am primarily interested in picking up odd vocabulary and keeping my ear trained. But I can't listen to this podcast without going a little crazy. Chuck's German accent is atrocious, and his voice is ill-suited for radio, anyway. But his accent shouldn't be held up as an example. Native American English speakers will probably end up with an accent similar to his once they obtain a certain level of proficency in German - my German accent is pretty similar to his. But you wouldn't want to learn English from a native speaker of another language and this is no different. They should have sprung for another native German speaker to do the dialogs. Second, the dialogs are too long. I'd much rather see the dialogs shortened considerably and then repeated a few times (a la Chinesepod) and then analyzed line-by-line. I'm not going to say that this podcast is going to make it harder to learn German or teach you bad habits. But it's not really going to teach you German either.Read full review »
