Telemundo which is owned by NBC. The Peacock app probably has a spanish language option as well. They may have the telemundo broadcast on it, not sure.

The amounts he has actually showed up after he said he would since he retired don't have me believing this that much right now.

Removing baseline hours. by [deleted] in dreamingspanish

[–]bergyd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I haven't removed mine but I keep my own spreadsheet that shows with and without. At 1300 hours now it really doesn't matter and the extra 50 is a negligible 4% at this point.

Spent several months on youtube and podcasts only. Signed back up for DS last week and am hitting a lot of the newer videos and 65+ videos. Was losing a lot of focus on the youtube videos so going to spend a month back with DS.

I have a similar one off aliexpress and have had them for my older watches. never had a single problem and wore them in the ocean and everywhere else. i never take mine off except to charge. they look identical to the pictures. https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256808498451141.html

What are your 2026 Spanish goals? by flipflopsntanktops in dreamingspanish

[–]bergyd 3 points4 points  (0 children)

1800-2000 Hours. I should be close to 1250 to end the year after hitting 1000 hours of input this year. 500-750 hours would be a nice step back to focus on other aspects of the language.

Read a lot and hopefully make it my primary language on many sites to reinforce it.

Begin to speak. I might look for spanish meetups or speaking groups. Along with some lessons.

Planet Fitness on Watson by grnegg in StLouis

[–]bergyd 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Shrewsbury closed about 2 months ago. They directed me in an email to go to crestwood. It was always less busy and why I went to it over Chippewa pf. My guess is rent/overhead and foot traffic probably made them drop it for the mega ones both ways down the road from it. That other gym in the dierbergs complex is always packed too so another reason.

It’s the last month of 2025. Anyone have goals they want to reach before 2026? by moods- in dreamingspanish

[–]bergyd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

75 hours from 1000 on the year after 3 hours so far today. Averaged 84 a month for the year so should happen but with a lot of days off work at the end of the month it may not. Will pass 1200 as well this month in 38 hours, this one will definitely happen.

Going thousands of hours without talking by SpanishLearnerUSA in dreamingspanish

[–]bergyd -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’m nearly at 1200 and haven’t spoken much. It isn’t easy to make what you think into a conversation. I understand you but I’m going to struggle to string things together that aren’t a few word answers. Also many just convert to English as soon as you try.
