It's finally here! I had so much fun talking with @parasynthetic.bsky.social about the many creative choices behind translating Because Internet into Spanish, and now that the Spanish ebook is available all over, you can listen to our chat!

Translations are very much acts of creation, especially when it comes to translating a book that is itself about language

In this bonus episode we chat with @parasynthetic.bsky.social about how he translated Because Internet into Spanish
