🎧 Get Listening: The Mandarin Podcast by Outlier

Learning to understand Mandarin is one of the biggest challenges learners face. That’s why we created the Get Listening Mandarin Podcast—a free, graded listening resource designed to help you build comprehension step by step.

Each episode features carefully crafted stories at different levels, which also line up with our Get Speaking Mandarin (GSM) course series:

• Foundations (HSK 1–2 / GSM1)
• Basic (HSK 2–3 / GSM2)
• Intermediate (HSK 3–4 / GSM3)
• Advanced (HSK 4–5 / GSM4)
• Mastery (HSK 5+)

Whether you’re just starting out or already reading and conversing, you’ll find stories that meet you where you are—engaging, culturally rich, and perfect for training your ear.
