Here is the transcript:
Я всегда хотела учиться в США, потому что американские университеты дают хорошее образование. Когда я училась в Университете Колорадо, я изучала славянскую культуру и славянские языки.
Сейчас я профессор и работаю в университете, и мне очень нравится учить других. Это прекрасная профессия. Я часто говорю студентам, что надо учить стихи наизусть, это полезно для памяти. Вообще, всегда учиться чему-то новому это очень важно. Например, сейчас я хочу учиться играть на пианино и танцевать.

I have always wanted to study in the USA because American universities provide a good education. When I was studying at the University of Colorado, I studied Slavic culture and Slavic languages.

Now I work at a university, and I really enjoy teaching others. It is a wonderful profession. I often tell my students that they should memorize poems by heart—it's good for memory.

In general, constantly learning something new is very important. For example, now I want to learn to play the piano and dance.

Daria Molchanova’s Slow Russian offers a patient, accessible path to understanding spoken Russian. As an experienced teacher, Daria structures each episode around clear, deliberately paced conversation, removing the common hurdle of native speed that can overwhelm learners. The core of this podcast is its namesake pace: spoken Russian delivered slowly enough to follow, yet naturally enough to feel authentic. Each segment typically includes a vocabulary breakdown, where key words and phrases are explained in context, turning listening practice into a direct lesson. Beyond grammar and pronunciation, Daria weaves in observations on Russian culture, traditions, and the nuances of daily life, providing the contextual glue that makes language stick. It’s designed for those who want to move beyond textbooks and engage with the rhythm and substance of the language in a manageable way. The result is a learning tool that feels less like a lecture and more like a guided tour of the Russian language, building comprehension and confidence with each slow-spoken episode. You can find more resources and episodes on the podcast’s main website.
