Español Podcast 1

This is the first podcast. This top part would be in spanish but my current writing in spanish isn't worth trying to translate this. I'm creating this podcast to help others learn spanish. I hope that plenty of people will be able to use this to practice their spanish.

The audio is created with Google Text-to-Speech API for free using the voice "es-ES-Standard-A". While we will certainly use their other voices, I think this one is pretty good for how cheap it is. The script was written by various authors around the world and given to Wikipedia, where I got it on March 21st, 2024. Spanish Wikipedia is very different from English Wikipedia, so this content is exclusive to Spanish Wikipedia.

If the podcast is too short for you, I heartily recommend checking out El Rey 1360AM which is a local spanish radio station with four hours of daily discussions in spanish by native speakers along with music.

The necessary disclaimer at the start of any cool project notes: this took me way too long to get working and buying would have taught me almost nothing about electronics. But if you are not ready to learn things you didn’t want to know, I recommend buy or don’t attempt instead of following my path.
