  • Love it!!

    This is the first podcast I’ve ever properly listened to. I started listening mid October and by the end of January I’ve listened to all nearly 80 episodes!

Signing up to the discord is great as I get great deals and more chat about all things translations.

  • The Best Harry Potter Book Podcast Out There!

    If you collect Harry Potter books this is the podcast for you. A lot of podcasts take time to find their feet but Dialogue Alley gets its format and structure nailed from the first episode. News, a main topic, and a translation of the show. The hosts have great chemistry and you feel like you’re listening to your friends discus your favourite books. The first few episodes are great but the show takes it up a notch when Melanie joins 10 episodes or so in.

    Crucially they get the length spot on. No... more
