Links: Podcasts
These are podcasts I use to learn languages, to improve my
listening skills in languages I'm learning, and to learn about
language and linguistics. I know some of the people who make them,
and have appeared on some of the podcasts . There are also links to a few
comedy podcasts I like.
If you can recommend any other language-related podcasts,
do let me know.
These podcasts are also available on iTunes, Soundcloud, and/or
other podcast platforms.
If you find a link that is no longer working or that has moved, or
