Hello,
I have downloaded the Lesson 23 of Coffee Break Spanish via iTunes. The actual file downloaded, however, is Lesson 22. Please check.
I hope you’ll fix the problem soon.
Thanks!

Hi Kyo,
Sorry – we realise now that there was a typo in the link we put in the podcast feed. We’ve now updated this so you should be able to refresh your iTunes podcast feed to download the correct episode.

Hi Mark,
Just checked and confirmed the feed now “funciona.”
Gracias!

Hi Mark and Kara,
I started CBS about 9 months ago, and have gotten through about 55 lessons so far. I think they are great, I have learned a lot and had fun doing it. I was downloading the lessons 5 at a time from iTunes, (thru #60) but I see you have started over and are up to lesson 23. Is there a site from which I can get the later lessons (61-80) and not have to wait? I’m going to Guatemala in Oct. Necesito aprender más español pronto.
Gracias!

Hi Mark,
Just to echo Jose’s comments above. I have been working through CBS for the past few months. It has been a fantastic help to my studies, thanks for that. I am currently on lesson 60 and was wondering if the remaining episodes will be re-appearing on I-Tunes any time soon? I am off to South America in 6 weeks.
Many Thanks,
Pharoah

Hola Mark y Kara:
Why do you say that “ruidosa” has four syllables? Don’t the “u” and “i,” both being weak vowels, smoosh together to create a diphthong?
Ej: rui-do-sa
Gracias for clarifying.
