FAQs
How can I subscribe and listen to the podcast?
If you don’t have a favorite podcast app yet, we recommend you try out Pocket Casts on Android or Overcast on iPhone—both are completely free and support all of the features our podcast offers. Once you’ve installed the app, all you have to do is search for “Easy German” or tap the direct link listed above.
Is the podcast available on Spotify?
Yes it is, but Spotify doesn’t support chapter images, so our vocabulary helper doesn’t work there. If you’d like to see words and translations while you listen, please use one of the supported apps listed above.
Where are the show notes? How can I comment on an episode?
You can find links to everything we mention on the show and leave comments on each episode’s individual page.
Where can I find the full transcript?
We offer full, interactive transcripts (as well as the vocabulary helper and bonus content) for our members. Once you join the Podcast Membership tier or higher on our Patreon page, you’ll get access to the members-only podcast feed that you can subscribe to in your favorite app. We’ll send you specific instructions on how to subscribe.
How can I send you feedback or a question for the podcast?
Just go to the main podcast page, scroll all the way to the bottom and click the big, green button!
Vocabulary Helper & Transcripts
Even though we make the podcast for German learners, we speak at regular speed. We believe that exposure to authentic, real-life conversations is beneficial to learners of any level. (And you can always slow us down in your app.)
To help you improve comprehension and build your vocabulary, we came up with a feature we call Vokabelhilfe: While you listen, the podcast cover art changes every full minute and shows you the 10 most important words and expressions. So whenever there's something you don't understand, you can quickly glance at your phone and you'll likely find the translation there. Or simply review the episode’s vocabulary list a little later. If you'd like to follow along with every word, we also offer a full transcript for each episode that includes an automatic translation.
You can try out the vocabulary helper and our interactive transcripts for free on episodes 1, 2, 3 & 12. If you can support us with 8 € per month, you’ll get access to the members-only feed that includes these benefits plus bonus content and early access.
