Summary

Hebrew Podcasts is a fresh new podcast resource for Hebrew learners. Currently, there are six lessons for beginner Hebrew learners on topics ranging from asking directions, school, alphabet, telling time and a family visit. Thus far, the lessons have been fairly consistent with about one new lesson every week and a half, and the quality of the production is good.

These podcasts are available for free, and there is a membership option for learners who want all of the transcripts and additional information and exercises.

It's great to see Hebrew podcasts emerging!
