    Un podcast informativo e divertente.
    Linda offre un menu di soggetti interessanti, ben curati, e educativi. Parla un Italiano standard e chiarissimo, cosa che io, qui negli Stati Uniti, apprezzo molto. Non sono proprio fluente, ma trovo che la mia comprensione e molto migliorato da questo podcast. Complimenti, Linda!

    Thank you!
    This is my favorite intermediate-level, completely in Italian podcast. Linda’s short presentations are always informative (and alway respect the intelligence of the listener—they never condescend!). Now I have a long list of authors, artists and other interesting Italians to explore. Grazie mille!

    The best Podcast to learn Italian
    Linda does an amazing job at presenting wonders of Italian culture. Excellent podcast to learn Italian. The best I have found so far. I only wish we could have more episodes soon! I need more episodes Linda!!! Have already heard and enjoyed them all!

    Very Instructional yet fun
    As an intermediate Italian speaker, I really appreciate this podcast. All of us experience time constraints in this busy world, and these lessons are usually under 15 minutes. Listening at lunch or in the drive home is perfect. Also, many foreign language podcasts are partially in English. These entire episodes are all in Italian, and has helped me even more in broadening my vocabulary. These include idioms and everyday conversational Italian and is a great practice for when I travel. I’d definitely recommend any intermediate speaker and above subscribe to this podcast.

    Fabulous!! Grazie mille 🌼
    Culturally interesting topics done with charm and warmth. A great way for non-native speakers to keep their Italian alive!! I come away from each episode with a deeper knowledge —not only of Italian culture —but other enriching topics! I’m so grateful this podcast exists.

    Best Italian Podcast
    This podcast provides an interesting and smart way to learn Italian through literature and language. The episodes are a good length (although they could be a little bit longer) and I always enjoy all the stories and things I learn. It’s perfect for anyone who is intermediate or advanced- which isn’t always easy to find in a language learning podcast. I appreciate this podcast a lot.
  • RetiredSandy
    Great!
    I really enjoy the subjects Linda picks and how she explains them. Grazie a Linda ho cominciato a leggere C’era Due Volte il Barone Lamberto - divertentissimo! Rido a voce alta!
  • BrionBuono
    The Best Italian Podcast!
    Linda R. writes and narrates beautiful pieces on subjects from literature, history, culture and science that are easy to follow from an intermediate level on, and explore Italian culture like a dream course you wish you could have had in college. Her flawless and musical diction, wonderful production, and wide range of subjects always leave me wondering what she will cover next, anxiously awaiting another amazing podcast!
  • Taltaltula
    Fantastica
    Linda is a great teller and has a special sweet way to introduce you to diverse and interesting topics. Her melodic voice accompanied you for a great journey of few minutes but certainly an enjoyable one. Highly recommended for intermediate learners of Italian and above.

    Unique Approach to Learning Italiano
    Linda always has an interesting and diverse topic. She is very pleasing to listen to and has a highly professional but also very friendly approach. Excellent insights into Italian language and culture. Linda è fuoriclasse!

    A Wonderful Italian Language Podcast!!
    This is a fantastic Italian language podcast that is extremely helpful for people learning/maintaining their Italian. Linda covers a diverse array of topics in Italian culture, history, literature, cinema, culinary arts and other genres, all the while, making it an interesting and fun listening experience. Every podcast is thoughtfully prepared from start to finish, well researched and superbly performed. You can really tell that Linda puts a great deal of her heart and soul into each and every podcast. Linda has a very soothing voice that’s easy to listen to, which in turn, creates a relaxed listening environment that really aids in the absorption of the grammar, vocabulary and sentence structure of the Italian language. I always look forward to new episodes and enjoy relistening the earlier episodes in the meantime :) If you have at least an intermmediate level grasp of the Italian language, I would highly recommend this podcast!

    Excellent podcast for intermediates
    I don’t remember how I came across this podcast, but I’m grateful that I did every time I listen to it. Linda, the person behind Speak Italiano, chooses topics that probably resonate with most folks learning or who are interested in Italian and she does so in a modulated speech, with a rich vocabulary. I’ve been learning a lot about many of the topics that fascinate me, e.g. language, literature, food, etc. I hope more people review it, so that more people come across it!
