Summary: In this interview with Spanish podcaster, Mercedes León, we talk about economic hard times in Spain, brought on by rampant real estate speculation. Later on in the conversation we switch gears and Mercedes takes us on a wonderful audio tour of her favorite sections of Barcelona. It's a great interview, if I must say myself. :) This is Part 1 of a two-part interview. Visit Mercedes' web site at www.spanishpodcast.org.
