Episode Description from the Publisher

In this episode, I’m going a little more personal and taking you behind the scenes of Argentalk—how traveling, culture shock, and unexpected moments abroad made me see Argentina (and myself) in a completely different way. You’ll hear the real story of why this podcast was born, the little details that pulled me back toward my own culture, and the “very Argentine” codes you only understand by contrast: the accent, the hugs, the football passion… and yes, the Córdoba vs. Buenos Aires rivalry. Come listen—this one comes straight from the heart.---✉️ This podcast is just the beginning.If you subscribe to the Argentalk newsletter, you’ll unlock free PDF transcripts for (almost) all past and future episodes, ready to print, each one with a glossary of the hardest words and expressions translated into English.And whenever a new episode comes out, I’ll email you the link and the transcript so you can follow along:👉 argentalk.com/subscribe-podcast---If you want to watch the full video interview, you can go to Rusentino's Youtube channel ⁠over here
