Dear Ed,

Spotlight is really nice.  I see it's similar to VOA in the sense that
it uses Specialized English:

"Compared with ‘normal’ English radio, Specialized English uses:

    * fewer words (our word list has 1500 words -we explain other
words when we need them.)
    * slower speed (about 90 words per minute, or half the normal
speaking speed)
    * shorter sentences  (mostly, one idea per sentence)."

Thank you,

Pablo
