Good fit if

  • Beginners who want spoken Japanese every day
  • Commuters who will actually press play
  • Learners who can tolerate incomplete understanding

Look elsewhere if

  • You need a full transcript and grammar notes first
  • You want JLPT item practice
  • Podcasts never get finished in your life

Nihongo con Teppei is a free podcast of spoken Japanese aimed at beginners. Episodes are short on purpose. The job is ear time, not a syllabus.

Who it fits

It fits people who will play an episode while walking or commuting, and who can live with not catching every word.

Limits

It is not a grammar reference and it is not a pronunciation lab. If you want official numbered audio lessons, try NHK World Easy Japanese. Keep NHK News Web Easy if you want text plus audio.
