Listening Exercise Change

Ciao Tutti,

Has anyone else suddenly had the podcast/listening lessons completely change?

It used to be that one of the characters (Lilly, Lucy, Falstaff etc) have a podcast type lesson. The host introduces the premise and you listen to a Italian conversation and answer questions. The "host" would speak English and the Italian conversations were spoken slowly.

I've just tried one today and the entire lesson is now in Italian and is spoken so fast I can't keep up. I literally have no idea what the answers are because I can only pick out a few words from their monologue length conversations. If I could understand the language at that speed, I wouldn't need Duolingo to begin with!

I'm going to have to skip these lessons from now on because there's no way I can learn anything at that speed.

Duolingo, SLOW IT DOWN!
