Bem-vindo! You made it.
We're genuinely happy you're here. The CC Club is something we've built with a lot of care over nearly a decade — and you're now part of it. Take a breath, look around, and make yourself at home.
Aquele abraço, Alexia & Foster
First, a quick orientation
The Club is a big place. Here's everything you need to know to get started, in plain language.
The Podcast
Nearly 400 episodes of real Brazilian Portuguese conversations. The foundation of everything we do.
The Worksheets
Annotated transcripts for every episode — vocabulary, cultural notes, grammar highlights. Your study companions.
Live Classes
Weekly live events with Alexia and Foster. Real conversation practice, real community.
Where should you start?
Depends on who you are. Pick the one that sounds most like you.
🌱 I'm a beginner or returning to Portuguese after a long break
Start with The Fundamentals — our structured course for building a real foundation in Brazilian Portuguese from the ground up.
🎯 I'm intermediate — I understand some Portuguese but want to go deeper
Jump into the Carioca Collection. Find an episode on a topic you love and work through the worksheet. That's the CC method.
🌍 I'm advanced — I want to live inside the language
Adventures with Alexia takes you deep: real stories, advanced vocabulary, cultural nuance. Designed for learners who are ready to go all in.
🎵 I want to explore a specific theme
Our Playbooks curate the best episodes around a topic — music, Rio de Janeiro, TV & film, pronunciation. Choose your path.

One last thing
The CC Club works best when it's a two-way conversation. If you're lost, stuck, or just want to say hello — we actually want to hear from you.
