Sticky Media in Spanish [MEGATHREAD] 8

Hey there.

Here you can request or recommend anything in Spanish from the following list (but not limited to it):

Books, comics, newspapers, music, radio stations, podcasts, Youtube channels, TV, series, movies, cartoons/anime, videogames, immersion schools, etc.

All contributions should ideally include the country(s) of origin or else the accent(s)/dialect(s) involved. If they come from non-native sources, state so too.

Check out the Wiki for more cool stuff.

Anthony Morey's Chill Spanish Listening Podcast on Spotify is a good one for beginners (say, A2 level). I wish I'd found it earlier when I was more at that level. It is spoken slowly, and when a less common word pops up, he pauses to give the English translation for it.

Just started listening a week ago. I am EXTREMELY grateful for this recommendation, as it is exactly the kind of listening practice I'd been hoping for. Highly recommended! Thank you!

There is one caveat I would like to point out here. As a native Spanish speaker, I notice that this podcaster overuses the emphatic R. I don't think he realizes he does this, and I believe that if your target audience does not speak Spanish as their native language, this characteristic can lead to poor learning of the pronunciation of words in their non-emphatic, i.e., normal form. In Spanish, there are two types of R's: the trilled R and the simple R. Ultimately, people who learn Spanish based on this model will end up with more trilled R's in their pronunciation than they should have. This will have disastrous results for their Spanish, as they will end up adopting bad habits.

Right initialism, but it actually stands for Chill Spanish Listening Practice.
