O Homem que Mordeu o Cão (Rádio Comercial)

What it actually is

A daily few minutes from one of Portugal’s most popular radio personalities, built out of strange news items and conversational tangents. Because the stories are self-contained and often absurd, you can dip in anywhere, and it is a rare chance to hear informal, joking Portuguese rather than broadcast register. Fast, slangy and full of pop-culture references, so it rewards people already living in Portugal.
