Episode 28: Spain (Part 2)

In All of Us Command is a new podcast where we learn about countries and their national anthems. We will be drawing each new country out of a hat and taking turns researching them. Today, Kate wraps up with part 2 of Spain and learns about the last of the world's anthems with no official lyrics.

Show Notes

In Part 2, Kate learns about the Spanish civil war, Franco's dictatorship, and a street festival where everyone throws tomatoes at each other.

What is In All of Us Command?

In All of Us Command is a show about countries and their national anthems. Each week, the hosts will draw a country at random and learn about their history and the history of their anthem. We will listen to the songs and rate them on several criteria.

Join our hosts, Aaron and Kate, as they learn how very little they know about the world outside of Canada.
