Today's episode is different. And it's different not because it's a true story (because we always feature those on our podcast), but because your narrator, Anthony, went through the events expressed in the tale.

This is the reality of how Venezuela collapsed, of what led 7 million people to flee the country and seek a better life elsewhere. It's an account of how any average family (in this case, a family that supported the government at its beginning) lost all its net worth and soon struggled to combat starvation.

This is the Learn Spanish with Stories podcast, where we help you learn Spanish while showing you the reality of life in Latin America (both good and bad). So let's dive in, and we hope it helps you understand why so many Venezuelans are now spread across the globe.
