Two great Spanish fluency-building sites

1) Leerescuchando.net seems to be, essentially, volunteer-read podfic of public domain stories in Spanish. I am so, so happy, as Spanish-language audiobooks of everything except The Secret are painfully hard to get here. I spent all yesterday listening to The Adventure of the Solitary Cyclist. I mean, I still don't know who did it, but I learned some verb tenses! (Registration required, in Spanish, but so far they have sent me zero email, which is good). Stories are available streaming or to download. Warning for autoplay on their front page.

2) It just now occurred to me to listen to BBC Latinoamerica podcasts (again, download or streaming, no registration required) and that is how I learned that today we, if you can trust science reporting, now live in the Huxleyverse. (Stem cells are "maternal cells" in Spanish! Fascinating!). This also makes me happy because I like to listen to the BBC Theme whenever I'm sad, and this way I hear it three times in fifteen minutes! Seriously, so happy-making, I have no idea why..
