Podcast #15 - Learn Italian with free podcasts
Podcasts are a wonderful way to learn a new language, and luckily there are several good shows that focus on Italian. My favorites are My Daily Phrase Italian and LearnItalianPod. If you own an iPod or other MP3 player, you can take advantage of this medium to listen to Italian conversations while you are driving, commuting to work or just walking your dog.
It's powerful, effective and free.
In this episode, I interviewed Max Braglia, producer of the popular and successful language show LearnItalianPod.
Max shared with me some interesting insights on his podcast, how it all started and how he plans to evolve it in the future. Enjoy!

I suggest an additional post on podcasts about Italian travel and destinations. Italyguides.it has some good posts in English for Rome, Florence and Venice, and additional ones in Italian.
Great podcast! Podcasts, Skype and the Internet are certainly the wave of the future for language learning. I am always looking for new ways to improve my Italian through the use of the internet. I have subscribed to and enjoyed LearnItalianPod. Here are some of my other favorites:
www.impariamo.com although not a podcast, it is a site where Italian learners of all levels can practice the written language, ask questions and interact with Italians. Here we regularly schedule chats using Skype and practice Italian with other learners and with Italians.
Pod Cast Radio Arlecchino (http://tltc.la.utexas.edu/ra/) - a delightful and a fun way to brush up on your Italian grammar from the University of Texas. Not only do I enjoy the format, but it has deepened my interest in la commedia dell'arte!
Languamedia Pod Casts http://www.learnitalian.bravehost.com/) Massimo personalizes each Podcast lesson to your specific requirements, and speaks directly to you using your name. Each pod cast includes written exercises and pdf explanations. This is not a free podcast however, ($10 US or Eur 8) but it is well worth the price and you conclude your podcast and lesson with a Skype conversation with Massimo.
Thanks again for your interesting and informative site!
What was that music that played on some intervals?
