Hi everyone!
Since my Italian is getting worse (joking, it's for my girlfriend), I ask you advice about Italian podcasts. The ideal is something aimed to the learner, but where everything is in Italian and there are no grammar explanation (my model here is something like Daily French or Notes in Spanish intermediate). Do you know any? Thank you very much! 1 person has voted this message useful | |

My recommendation: Rai - Il terzo anello ad altavoce.
I use the classics, but I'm sure there must be lots of other things. Site navigation is not always very clear IMHO (that's the reason why I won't provide a starting link), but you're Italian, so there won't be a language barrier. 1 person has voted this message useful | |

It seems to be more like audiobooks than podcasts?
Why no grammar btw? Is she learning it elsewhere? If she hates it, radio Arlecchino should make it more fun. that's almost the only Italian grammar resource I can tolerate. 1 person has voted this message useful | |

This is the closest I could find to something like Notes in Spanish when I first started learning Italian (I still
enjoy listening to it): Al Dente from Podclub Edited by nj24 on 01 June 2015 at 10:26pm 2 persons have voted this message useful | |

I've been looking for Italian podcasts also. I like that Arlecchino and Al dente both
have transcripts; I've downloaded a couple episodes and will check them out tonight. I think your Italian is a lot better than mine, so RaiRadio3's Lezioni di rock might work for you. It's a bit too hard for me, and I can only understand random parts of the show. 1 person has voted this message useful | |

I've found most RAI Radio podcasts suitable for intermediate (depending on your definition of intermediate of course). For something learner-oriented, I enjoyed The Italian Culture Show; unfortunately they stopped making new episodes a while ago, but there's a decent archive of old ones. It has episodes at different levels: the intermediate/advanced ones are all Italian while the more basic ones have English too.
I've never heard of Al Dente before but it looks great, I'll check it out myself. 1 person has voted this message useful | |

Thank you very much guys!
The idea is something that she can download in her cellphone and listen when she takes the bus to go to work. She needs to get used to spoken Italian, she already has a grasp of the grammar. That's why I'm thinking at podcasts. Podcasts with grammar explanations are too boring and require more focus so are not ok for the purpose. I have to try myself the ones you adviced me :) 1 person has voted this message useful | |
