Hi everyone, a quick note before we begin.

This season of the Dualingo Spanish podcast is serialized,

so if you haven't heard the previous episodes yet, go back and listen to them first.

In our previous episode, Carlos and Ricardo made a desperate attempt to find the Sunkin va poridada,

and they found themselves stranded in the middle of the ocean,

wondering if they would meet the same fate as the passengers of the Itata.

The wind was growing stronger, and the waves were rocking their boat side to side.

They were in the middle of the ocean, together with their captain, Freddie,

in a small boat with a broken motor, more than 100 miles from the coast.

Carlos didn't know how they would survive.

In a boaty, so small.

Carlos and Ricardo dropped an anchor into the sea to try and stabilize the boat.

Meanwhile, captain Freddie was trying to fix the broken motor.

Carlos and Ricardo looked at each other and put on their life jackets.

But right when they were about to jump overboard and abandon ship,

captain Freddie, who was still working frantically on the motor,

told Carlos to try and start the engine.

The key.

Welcome.

Welcome.

Les damos la bienvenida a The Mystery of the Itata,

a special serialized season of the Dualingo Spanish podcast.
