What is *The Yankee Way* by Andy Martino about?

This insider account reveals the New York Yankees' operational secrets through 30+ years of Brian Cashman's leadership, featuring untold stories about Derek Jeter’s leadership style, Alex Rodriguez’s turbulent tenure, and Cashman’s battles to balance analytics with traditional scouting. Martino exposes front-office conflicts, championship strategies, and how Cashman rebuilt the franchise after George Steinbrenner’s suspension.

Who should read *The Yankee Way*?

Baseball enthusiasts, Yankees fans, and sports management professionals will appreciate this deep dive into MLB’s most storied franchise. The book appeals to readers interested in leadership dynamics, front-office politics, and the evolution of modern baseball operations from the 1990s dynasty to today’s analytics-driven era.

What leadership lessons does Brian Cashman teach in *The Yankee Way*?

Cashman’s approach emphasizes evaluating players’ intangible qualities like character alongside statistics, managing superstar egos (particularly Jeter-Rodriguez tensions), and maintaining organizational stability through ownership transitions. His “Yankee Way” philosophy prioritizes long-term roster construction over impulsive decisions, as shown in his fights to retain Aaron Judge.

How does *The Yankee Way* explain the Derek Jeter-Alex Rodriguez feud?

Martino analyzes their clash as a psychological divide: Jeter’s reserved, championship-focused demeanor vs. Rodriguez’s craving for validation. The book details how Jeter froze out A-Rod after 2004 magazine comments questioned his work ethic, creating a rift that impacted team chemistry for years.

Does *The Yankee Way* cover the Yankees’ analytics revolution?

Yes – Martino shows how Cashman blended Bill Livesey’s legacy scouting system with modern data analysis, often clashing with George Steinbrenner’s old-school instincts. Key examples include justifying Paul O’Neill trades and resisting pressure to re-sign aging stars based on nostalgia.

What role did George Steinbrenner play in *The Yankee Way*?

The book portrays Steinbrenner as both a destabilizing force (1980s suspensions) and catalyst for Gene Michael’s 1990s rebuild. Martino reveals how Cashman navigated Steinbrenner’s mercurial demands while protecting baseball operations from impulsive ownership decisions.

How does *The Yankee Way* assess Brian Cashman’s legacy?

Martino positions Cashman as MLB’s most influential GM – a bridge between Steinbrenner’s bombast and modern analytics. The book credits his 27-year tenure for sustained success (7 pennants, 4 titles) but critiques missteps like the Jacoby Ellsbury signing and recent playoff droughts.

What behind-the-scenes Yankees stories does *The Yankee Way* reveal?

Exclusive accounts include Cashman’s secret 2007 meeting to keep A-Rod from opting out, Jeter’s refusal to switch positions despite team needs, and Hal Steinbrenner’s hands-off ownership style contrasting with his father’s micromanagement.

The Yankee Way: Behind Baseball's Most Storied Dynasty

When Derek Jeter finally extended an olive branch to Brian Cashman at his Hall of Fame induction ceremony in Cooperstown, it marked a symbolic end to years of tension between the Yankees icon and the front office. This moment, where Jeter acknowledged their past conflicts were "over," encapsulates the complex human dynamics that have defined baseball's most successful franchise. Andy Martino's "The Yankee Way" pulls back the curtain on the Yankees dynasty, revealing how the organization's success stemmed not just from talent and resources, but from a distinctive philosophy that has evolved over decades. The book has become required reading for baseball executives and has been praised by figures ranging from Ken Burns to Billy Beane, who called it "the definitive account of how modern baseball operations really work." Beyond the diamond, it offers a fascinating case study in organizational culture that Harvard Business School professors have incorporated into their curriculum.

Capitolo 2

From Rock Bottom to Dynasty: The Steinbrenner-Michael Foundation

The Yankees' modern era began at rock bottom, marking one of the most dramatic falls in baseball history. In April 1966, future Hall of Famers Roger Maris and Elston Howard endured the ultimate indignity when a Cleveland fan, leaning over the dugout, accurately predicted their impending defeat - a stark symbol of how far the mighty had fallen. The once-proud Yankees, who had claimed 29 pennants and 20 World Series titles since 1921, were suddenly mediocre, drawing barely 10,000 fans to many home games at their aging stadium. Though the franchise had been baseball's crown jewel since the Ruppert-Barrow era beginning in 1915, CBS's corporate ownership in the 1960s proved disastrous. The network treated the team like just another business asset, failing to understand baseball's unique dynamics. The implementation of the amateur draft in 1965 eliminated the Yankees' crucial advantage in signing young talent, while aging stars like Mickey Mantle and Whitey Ford declined with no suitable replacements in sight. By 1973, attendance had plummeted to 966,328, the lowest since 1945. When George Steinbrenner led a group that purchased the Yankees from CBS for $10 million in 1973, his timing proved remarkably fortuitous. The advent of free agency in 1975 allowed him to flex his financial muscle, adding stars like Catfish Hunter ($3.75 million contract), Reggie Jackson ($2.96 million), and Goose Gossage to an already solid foundation of homegrown talents like Thurman Munson and Ron Guidry. But the true architect of the Yankees' resurgence was Gene "Stick" Michael, a lanky former shortstop whose relationship with Steinbrenner began with what became known as "the hot dog incident." During pregame infield practice in August 1973, Michael ran shrieking onto the field after teammate Hal Lanier stuffed a hot dog in his glove, knowing Michael's intense fear of bugs. The horrified Steinbrenner, watching from the owner's box, immediately wrote down Michael's number to report him for unprofessional conduct. This awkward introduction, however, would eventually develop into the most trusted relationship of Steinbrenner's 37-year ownership tenure. Michael's unique value to Steinbrenner stemmed from his rare combination of baseball acumen and willingness to challenge the owner's often impulsive demands. When Steinbrenner implemented his famous no-long-hair policy in 1976, Michael boldly asked if the owner would pay for the team's haircuts, then suggested Steinbrenner should buy the team new suits too "if the goal here is to look more presentable." While others in the organization cowered before Steinbrenner's legendary temper, Michael's brash, antiauthoritarian streak somehow earned the Boss's respect. Their complex but productive partnership would ultimately transform the organization, laying the groundwork for the dynasty of the late 1990s through Michael's emphasis on player development and strategic trades during Steinbrenner's suspension in the early 1990s. This period allowed Michael to protect young talents like Derek Jeter, Bernie Williams, and Mariano Rivera from being traded, establishing the core of the team's future success.

Capitolo 3

The Baseball Philosophy That Built a Dynasty

While "Moneyball" would later celebrate Oakland executives as pioneers of valuing on-base percentage, Gene Michael had quietly implemented similar concepts with the Yankees years earlier. Unlike the A's approach, which came from outsiders with statistical backgrounds, Michael developed his insights through decades of hands-on baseball experience, combining traditional scouting with analytical thinking that was ahead of its time. His dual perspective as both former player and talent evaluator gave him unique credibility within baseball circles. Michael emphasized OBP with players like Willie Randolph and Don Mattingly as far back as the late 1970s, recognizing its importance when most teams fixated on batting average and RBIs. According to Billy Eppler, Michael's appreciation for OBP originated from playing Strat-O-Matic baseball in his youth, where he recognized the statistical value of walks relative to hits. Though Michael's own career OBP was a modest .288, this personal limitation perhaps made him even more appreciative of the skill's importance in building winning teams. He particularly valued hitters who could work deep counts and force pitchers to throw 20-25 pitches per inning. Michael's scouting genius extended beyond statistics to meticulous pitch-by-pitch analysis. He tracked every velocity, pitch type, location, and batter response on a legal pad during games, developing an uncanny ability to determine player readiness. His note-taking was so detailed that other scouts often borrowed his observations. For hitters, Michael evaluated their ability to "quit on the baseball"-a phrase he coined describing when batters could recognize and lay off bad pitches, relaxing their shoulders or hands mid-swing. This quality, seen in players like Jason Giambi (.399 OBP), Bobby Abreu (.395 OBP), and Gary Sheffield (.393 OBP), was particularly deflating to pitchers and led to prolonged at-bats that wore down opposing staffs. Michael also scrutinized subtle body language and baseball instincts that others missed. He appreciated nuances like Omar Vizquel catching throws with the back of his glove, and advised manager Buck Showalter to "never take the imagination away from an infielder from Latin America," recognizing cultural differences in playing styles. His evaluation extended to player focus and demeanor-noting Andrew McCutchen's "no panic" attitude in the batter's box years before Cashman would trade for him in 2018. He valued players who maintained their composure in pressure situations, particularly noting how they performed with two strikes or in late-inning scenarios. This uniquely specific style of player evaluation became instrumental in constructing the next Yankee dynasty, leading to key acquisitions like Paul O'Neill, Tino Martinez, and David Cone, who embodied the patient, professional approach Michael valued. His methodology influenced a generation of baseball executives and scouts, creating a blueprint for modern player evaluation that balanced traditional scouting with statistical analysis. The Yankees' success under his guidance demonstrated that the most effective talent evaluation combined both old-school baseball wisdom and innovative analytical thinking.

Capitolo 4

The Yankee Way Takes Shape

The Yankees' organizational philosophy crystallized through the development of what became known as "The Yankee Way"-a comprehensive player development system that would guide the franchise for decades. The origins trace back to Jack Butterfield, but Bill Livesey formalized the approach by developing an innovative "player profile" system that became the Yankees' secret sauce. This system ranked the five traditional baseball tools (hitting for average, hitting for power, running speed, fielding ability, and arm strength) by importance for each position rather than valuing all tools equally. For example, catchers prioritized fielding and arm strength over running, while first basemen needed power and hitting ability above all. The system required a player's top two position-specific tools to add up to at least 110 to indicate championship-caliber talent. This approach helped identify players overlooked by other teams, like Mickey Rivers, whose average tool score was only 54 but whose top two center field tools totaled 140. The profile system guided draft selections, free agent signings, and even position changes-like converting shortstop Jorge Posada into a catcher. By 1989, Mark Newman joined the Yankees and collaborated with Livesey to create a comprehensive manual. Rather than simply documenting their own ideas, they convened extensive discussions with coaches, including organizational players transitioning to coaching roles. These sessions delved into extraordinary detail-coaches once spent hours debating whether outfielders should catch balls on the left or right side of their bodies. The resulting document, officially titled "The Yankee System Developmental Manual," became a 500-page tome bound in a white spiral notebook with the Yankees' "top hat" logo and the recipient's name in calligraphy. Though formally named, it became known informally as "The Yankee Way," and its principles have remained embedded in the Yankees' organizational DNA for decades. The manual began with strict uniform regulations before diving into baseball techniques, containing detailed chapters on playing each position, pregame preparation, practice drills, and defensive strategies with diagrams showing player movements.

Capitolo 5

Cashman's Rise: From Intern to GM

Brian Cashman's unlikely journey to becoming the Yankees' general manager began with breaking a quarter horse named Nifty at his father's Castleton Farm-perfect preparation for eventually handling George Steinbrenner. This weeks-long process required gradually acclimating the bucking animal to blankets, straps, and eventually a saddle and rider, developing patience and persistence that would serve him well in baseball's most pressure-filled front office. Despite initially hating the Yankees (even rooting for the Dodgers in the 1978 World Series), Cashman's course was set when his father's friend offered him a Yankees internship after Brian lost all his money in a card game during a college baseball trip. Beginning his internship in 1986, 19-year-old Cashman followed his father's terse advice: "Keep out of the way and do your job the best you can." Renting a fifth-floor walk-up in the Bronx without air conditioning, Cashman experienced what he called "the belly of the beast" in 1980s New York. The Yankee offices felt like a battleground when Steinbrenner visited from Tampa, putting everyone "on edge" with his demanding presence. Working under assistant GM Peter Jameson, Cashman learned "everything about the administrative side of the game" while putting in grueling hours before modern intern laws existed. His responsibilities ranged from driving players to appointments to transcribing minor league game reports from answering machine messages each morning. Despite being an intern, Cashman quickly earned a "seat at the table" during important discussions, with scouting director Brian Sabean noting his "look, listen, think, speak" approach that distinguished him as "very diligent and dependable." By 1992, Cashman had risen to assistant general manager, and in February 1998, at just 30 years old, he became the second-youngest general manager in baseball history. When offered the Yankees GM position, Cashman displayed remarkable confidence despite being teasingly called "George Costanza" by some in the organization. Unlike the insecure Seinfeld character, Cashman insisted on just a one-year deal to prove himself before asking for a longer commitment. At his press conference, he acknowledged the challenge ahead: "I fully understand it's one of the most difficult jobs in sports, if not the most difficult."

Capitolo 6

The Dynasty Years: Building and Sustaining Excellence

Just four days after becoming GM, Cashman executed his first major transaction by acquiring Chuck Knoblauch from the Minnesota Twins. The Yankees had been pursuing the dynamic leadoff hitter since November 1997, and Cashman completed the deal by sending prospects Eric Milton, Brian Buchanan, Danny Mota, Cristian Guzman, and $3 million to Minnesota. Cashman's next major acquisition was signing Cuban defector Orlando "El Duque" Hernandez for $6.6 million-an all-time free agent bargain. After escaping Cuba on a small boat and surviving four days stranded at sea, El Duque impressed Yankees scout Lin Garrett despite concerns about his age and velocity. Initially planned for Triple-A, Hernandez dominated minor league hitters and earned a quick promotion, going 12-4 with a 3.13 ERA for the Yankees in 1998. The rest of the 1998 roster was already set through years of collaborative work. Tino Martinez had replaced Don Mattingly at first base in 1996, overcoming early struggles to become a productive cornerstone. The outfield featured Paul O'Neill in right, Bernie Williams in center, and Chad Curtis in left. The rotation was anchored by David Cone, David Wells, and Andy Pettitte, with Mariano Rivera closing games. Jorge Posada was ready to take over catching duties from Joe Girardi. At third base, on the recommendation of scout Ron Brand, the Yankees acquired Scott Brosius from Oakland despite his .203 batting average in 1997. Brand saw beyond Brosius's poor statistics, noting his excellent work ethic and defense. He believed Brosius's struggles stemmed from the pressure of batting third in Oakland's lineup ahead of Mark McGwire. The Yankees acquired Brosius while also offloading struggling pitcher Kenny Rogers to Oakland, with New York absorbing $5 million of Rogers's contract. The 1998 Yankees started the season 1-4, prompting Steinbrenner to tell Gene Michael, "Stick, you're going to have to go back in and take over. I don't know if Brian can do this." Michael counseled patience, and the team soon turned things around, finishing with 114 regular-season wins and an 11-2 postseason record, sweeping San Diego in the World Series with Scott Brosius earning MVP honors.

Capitolo 7

The A-Rod and Jeter Drama: A Dynasty Divided

In February 2004, Brian Cashman called Derek Jeter while driving on I-95 to deliver momentous news: "We got Alex Rodriguez." The Yankees had been chasing Steinbrenner's impossible standard after falling short in recent postseasons, and A-Rod represented a chance to inject new life into the roster. Cashman, vaguely aware of tension between the former friends, reassured Jeter: "This won't affect you. He's moving to third." After a telling silence, Jeter simply replied, "Okay" in his characteristic flat monotone. Team officials noticed Jeter couldn't even muster a fake smile as A-Rod donned his pinstripes at the introductory press conference, though both players maintained publicly that their "relationship is fine." This superstar feud wasn't unprecedented in Yankees history. Before Jeter and A-Rod came Reggie Jackson and Thurman Munson, and decades earlier, Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig. Each case presented a similar dynamic: a larger-than-life celebrity clashing with a quieter team captain. Unlike Jeter and A-Rod, however, Munson and Jackson managed to capture a World Series title in their first year together and eventually reached a truce. The roots of the Jeter-Rodriguez tension traced back to March 2001, when an Esquire profile quoted Rodriguez saying Jeter was "blessed with great talent around him" and "never had to lead." This was actually the second time Rodriguez had diminished Jeter publicly, following comments on ESPN radio questioning whether Jeter could command a contract comparable to his own record $252 million deal. The two had once been friends, meeting in 1993 at a college baseball game. Even then, their personalities contrasted sharply-Rodriguez was more polished but needier, constantly seeking affirmation, while Jeter remained quiet and self-contained. Their backgrounds differed dramatically too: Jeter had stable, married parents, while Rodriguez's father abandoned the family when Alex was ten, sending him on a lifelong search for father figures. The clubhouse had developed a clear class system-those who had won championships with Torre received preferential treatment. When Gary Sheffield and Kenny Lofton complained of racial bias, team officials believed it was actually favoritism based on championship rings. Meanwhile, Torre's office became increasingly inaccessible except to veteran stars, while Cashman was growing more data-driven and less trusting of Torre's judgment.

Capitolo 8

Into the Analytics Age: Modernizing the Yankees

In 2005, after threatening to leave, Brian Cashman convinced Steinbrenner to give him full control of baseball operations and permission to modernize the Yankees through analytics. Michael Fishman, a Yale mathematics graduate who had nearly been hired by Billy Beane's Oakland A's, became Cashman's first analytics hire despite being a lifelong Mets fan. This marked the beginning of the Yankees' two-decade journey into data-driven baseball. In 2009, Fishman and Billy Eppler discovered that A.J. Burnett was losing strikes because catcher Jorge Posada's subtle flinching caused umpires to call borderline pitches as balls. Using PITCHf/x data-a revolutionary ball-tracking technology-they determined that backup catcher Jose Molina was exceptionally skilled at "framing" pitches to get more strike calls. After presenting their findings to manager Joe Girardi, the Yankees paired Molina with Burnett, including in the World Series. This discovery of "catcher framing" as a quantifiable skill represented a breakthrough in baseball analytics, allowing teams to measure the exact value catchers provided through ball/strike calls-years before it became a public statistic. As the industry evolved from basic sabermetrics to sophisticated tracking systems measuring everything from exit velocity to spin rate, the Yankees built three separate data departments. By the 2020s, Sandy Alderson identified the next frontier as "empathy and implementation"-effectively communicating complex information to players and coaches. Tim Naehring emerged as Cashman's most trusted talent evaluator-"He's my Gene Michael," Cashman would often say. After his playing career with Boston ended prematurely due to a shoulder injury in 1997, Naehring built his reputation throughout baseball for his keen eye and affable demeanor. The Yankees were deliberately breaking down the "jock/nerd silos" by hiring versatile thinkers like Naehring, Josh Paul, Pete Mackanin, and Kevin Reese. Naehring's unique ability to blend traditional scouting with analytical perspectives made him invaluable when the Yankees faced their most daunting task in 2014: replacing Derek Jeter. As they considered both stopgap veterans and younger prospects, Naehring's Stick-like eye for off-ball behavior proved crucial-he evaluated shortstops not just on skills but leadership qualities, like who took charge giving signals with runners on base.

Capitolo 9

The Judge Era: New Leadership for a New Dynasty?

In spring 2013, Yankees VP of amateur scouting Damon Oppenheimer sent mental conditioning director Chad Bohling to evaluate Aaron Judge in Fresno. Bohling immediately recognized Judge's potential, impressed by both his imposing physical presence and earnest personality with a "hint of smart-aleck twinkle." Bohling's department, created during Cashman's 2005 organizational overhaul alongside pro scouting and analytics, had grown from initial skepticism (Gary Sheffield: "It's for people who are weak-minded") to become integral to the Yankees' success. Judge embraced Bohling's mental conditioning approach, meeting before every game to watch positive highlight videos that kept him focused during his record-breaking 2022 season. Unlike previous star dynamics like Jeter-Rodriguez, Judge fostered an inclusive leadership style, welcoming stars like Giancarlo Stanton without ego battles. Though Judge occasionally clashed with management by protecting teammates from cameras ("I'll be the bad guy"), his approach unified the clubhouse in ways previous captains hadn't. As Judge's free agency negotiations unfolded in 2022, tensions emerged between him and the Yankees front office. When Cashman publicly announced the details of their $213.5 million offer on Opening Day, Judge was blindsided. "It was upsetting to us," Judge later explained. "We were discussing, 'If you guys want me here, let's just keep this between me and you.'" Despite turning down the offer, Judge had a historic season, breaking Roger Maris's American League home run record with 62 homers. After the Yankees' ALCS sweep by the Astros, Judge's ambiguous comments left everyone guessing about his intentions. Judge's free agency grew increasingly dramatic when he was spotted in San Francisco, appearing in a viral video that seemed staged to pressure the Yankees. The situation reached peak tension during the Winter Meetings in San Diego, where Yankees officials grew despondent after Jon Heyman erroneously tweeted "Arson Judge appears headed to the Giants." Meanwhile, Judge was secretly meeting with the Padres, who offered over $400 million. In a late-night intervention, Yankees manager Aaron Boone called Judge directly, followed by Steinbrenner texting from Italy. Around 3:30 a.m., they closed a nine-year, $360 million deal, narrowly keeping their franchise icon in pinstripes and appointing him the first team captain since Jeter.

Capitolo 10

The Yankee Way: Enduring Legacy and Future Challenges

As the 2022 offseason continued, Cashman faced intense criticism from media and fans following another playoff exit. The New York Post's Joel Sherman wrote that "everything must be in play" rather than having "all the same people back to do all the same things," while Ian O'Connor stated fans were "sick and tired of Hal Steinbrenner's leadership." These critiques made Cashman briefly consider stepping away. Inside the organization, Jean Afterman observed that Cashman was "very discouraged and disturbed at the fan and media reaction," questioning if continuing was "really worth it." Though Cashman was approached by executive search firms, his loyalty to Hal Steinbrenner kept him from pursuing other opportunities. The 2023 season proved disastrous, with the Yankees finishing 82-80 and missing the playoffs, fueling criticism of Cashman's recent unsuccessful moves including Joey Gallo, Frankie Montas, and Carlos Rodon. At the November 2023 GM meetings in Arizona, a frustrated Cashman unleashed a passionate, profanity-laced defense of his staff, declaring "I think we're pretty fucking good, personally, and I'm proud of our people." Though recognized by peers as a future Hall of Famer alongside executives like Sabean, Dombrowski, and Epstein, Cashman remained unsatisfied, driven by what Afterman described as his feeling that "he has more to accomplish as a Yankee." As baseball continues to evolve, the organization faces the challenge of balancing its storied traditions with the demands of modern analytics and player development. The Yankees' story reveals how organizational culture transcends individuals-even as key architects like Gene Michael, Bill Livesey, and others departed, their philosophy remained embedded in the Yankees' DNA. The Yankee Way has proven remarkably resilient, adapting to changing times while maintaining core principles that have defined baseball's most successful franchise for generations.

La verità è che l'app ha superato tutte le mie aspettative. Posso chiederle di generare audio su qualunque argomento, qualsiasi esso sia, e il risultato è impressionante. Il mio campo professionale è una specializzazione in psicoterapia, molto multidisciplinare; eppure le risposte sono molto accurate.

Quello che apprezzo di più è quanto abbia ridotto il mio scrolling: passo meno tempo a cercare e più tempo ad assorbire informazioni. La combinazione di audiolibri completi, podcast e piani di apprendimento è brillante.

Sono istruttore di apprendimento accelerato PhotoReading da 24 anni… libri, lettura e apprendimento sono il mio pane, e BeFreed ha fatto un ottimo lavoro offrendo un approccio innovativo per trasmettere le informazioni in un modo facile da assimilare.

@BeFreed user

Non è solo un'app di riassunti di libri: ho usato l'opzione di lettura divertente ed è un riassunto molto migliore, un modo più efficace di afferrare le idee rispetto al metodo tradizionale. Solo questo vale la spesa.

@austinakon

Adoro questa app. La uso da diversi giorni e non riesco a smettere di ascoltare. Un ottimo modo per iniziare.

Il programma mi piace davvero; lo sto provando da circa un mese e lo trovo una vera gemma. Funziona così bene perché con BeFreed posso creare i miei argomenti, e la voce è ottima, con una scelta illimitata di narrazioni.

Adoro poter ricevere informazioni e idee utili e condensate in un audio in stile podcast da 8-15 minuti. Non sono un grande fan dei podcast per via di tutto il riempitivo, ma qui si va dritti al punto.

Sto finendo il dottorato e devo leggere un sacco di materiale che non conosco… Con BeFreed basta inserire un prompt: l'app trova le fonti per te e genera un podcast audio. Trovo il processo di BeFreed più scorrevole di NotebookLM.

Cerco spesso su YouTube qualcosa da ascoltare mentre preparo la colazione, cammino o sono in viaggio, e BeFreed offre un approccio ancora più mirato, senza pubblicità e senza riempitivi!

@BeFreed user

La cosa in assoluto migliore di questa piattaforma è la versatilità. Non c'è letteralmente nessun argomento fuori portata. Gestisce qualsiasi cosa le proponi… È raro trovare uno strumento di apprendimento senza limiti che mantenga davvero le promesse.

@jayallen

BeFreed è fantastica. Il design intuitivo mi fa passare meno tempo a navigare e più tempo a imparare. Il mix di audiolibri, podcast e piani di apprendimento è una combinazione geniale che ha cambiato completamente la mia routine quotidiana.

@BeFreed user

All'inizio mi ci è voluto un po' per capire come creare podcast in italiano e poi… boom! È fantastico! Posso chiedergli di spiegarmi qualsiasi argomento e lo fa benissimo, con grande intelligenza!

BeFreed è diventata la mia app quotidiana per gli audiolibri… Quello che mi piace di più è che inserisci il tuo testo e ottieni un audio da ascoltare ovunque.
