Podcast language courses

I came across an interesting article today about using podcasts to learn languages. It lists a number of useful sites for languages such as Spanish, French and Russian, and mentions that numerous similar podcasts are available on iTunes. I just had a search in iTunes and have found quite a few free podcasts for various languages, including Greek, Tibetan, Chinese and French, and I’ve subscribed to some Irish and Scottish Gaelic ones. All I need to do now is find time to listen to them.

There are also links to podcasts in many languages here, and to some language learning podcasts here, where alongside such popular languages as Spanish and Japanese, you can find lessons in Mohawk and Osaka dialect.
