Beginner Spanish with Spanish Obsessed

Rob is English, Liz is Colombian, and Spanish Obsessed grew out of their shared passion for the Spanish language and Latin American culture. The beginner edition of their podcast pairs a native English speaker who learned Spanish as an adult with a native Colombian speaker, creating a dynamic that beginning learners can relate to directly. Rob remembers what it was like to struggle with conjugations and pronunciation, and Liz provides the native perspective that keeps everything grounded in how people actually speak. Episodes run 12 to 26 minutes and cover the practical building blocks: ordering coffee, telling someone you love them, navigating past tenses, describing your daily routine. The show blends explicit grammar instruction with conversational examples, and Rob and Liz include repetition opportunities so you can practice producing the sounds rather than just hearing them. Recent episodes have focused on preterite and imperfect tenses and real-world storytelling techniques, which are exactly the areas where many beginners start to plateau. Spanish Obsessed also publishes separate intermediate and advanced feeds, so you can graduate to the next level without switching to a completely different show. The website offers supplementary classes and materials for deeper study. With a 4.5 star rating from 247 reviews and a focus specifically on Colombian and Latin American Spanish, this is a strong choice for beginners who want a friendly, accessible entry point that does not feel like a lecture.
