Spanish Podcasts for Beginners?

I've tried a few podcasts but feel like they are too advanced for me. For example, I've tried "News in Slow Spanish," but even this podcast is hard for me to understand. The topics are great but the vocabulary and grammar level is quite high (although the speed is nice and slow). What good podcasts are out there for people at lower levels?


I'm probably at level A2 in listening and B1 in speaking, using the European grading system.

I enjoy the Podcasts from Carlos: http://babaestacion.blogspot.mx/
You can find his youtube channel here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCsUFRxdfbWYFiH_WGBIGksQ
He also has a facebook group called Spanglish pápas: https://www.facebook.com/groups/spanglishpapas/


Carlos always speaks very slowly and clearly and I find his videos easy to follow.

I think the most difficult thing is finding a combination of topics that I like and the right level. I found Radio Ambulante interesting, but the level just too high for me. 

Duolingo has a new podcast which is nice for beginners, the topics are hit or miss.

Hi. I recommend Radio Ambulante (radioambulante.org)

Now, it is NOT slow, but it is real and you can listen to people from many Spanish speaking countries.

Most of them have transcripts. It is a great idea to listen to them and read at the same time. It will help you (with patience and practice) distinguish words and you'll train your ear to recognize words when said at a normal pace. 

I hope it helps.
