“In this podcast, Eli presents carefully crafted realistic dialogues and situations for his listeners, then squeezes so much learning out of them that you will be amazed! The vast majority of the podcast is devoted to the analysis portion, all in Brazilian Portuguese played at a slower speed. I usually listen at 1.5X speed. I am at a high intermediate level, and I learn so much in this podcast that I try to listen to only one a week so that I can get the most out of it. Eli provides a full transcript of the monologue portion for free. In addition to the regular episodes, Eli publishes mini episodes that provide a close-up on some aspect of Brazilian Portuguese. Not surprisingly, these are also excellent! The only complaint I have about this podcast is that sometimes I feel discouraged that there is SO MUCH I still have to learn in Portuguese. It is at those times that I tell myself, “um passo de cada vez.” Also check out Eli’s other podcast, Read Brazilian Portuguese Every Day, for learners at a lower level, which I have not yet outgrown! 😉”
