have a listen to the Nuestra Familia Unida for a couple of very good
History podcasts from the "Here On Earth" podcast.
the first is about the 700+ years of Muslim Occupation of Spain:

the second is about the Foods of America:
http://nuestrafamiliaunida.com/podcast/comida.html
also if you get a chance have a listen to several new Oral History audio
files by Frank Moreno Sifuentes:

[Note: the first two podcast from Here On Earth are formatted to Real
Player. If you don't have Real Player on your computer it would be well
worth downloading this free software just to listen to the podcasts. You
can download it free here: http://www.real.com/player --- make sure you
get the free one as they will try to sell you their $20 version which is
only worth it if you are going to use it alot]
