  • La reconstruction de Notre-Dame de Paris

    La reconstruction de Notre-Dame de Paris
    Jan 29 2025

    In this episode, Gaelle focuses on what happened to an iconic French building: the cathedral Notre Dame of Paris. In 2019 a terrible fire destroyed its roof and spire and a mad bet was then taken: the cathedral would rise again in all its glory in 5 years.

  • Le “Dry January” en France

    Le “Dry January” en France
    Jan 9 2025

    In this episode, Gaelle explores “Dry January” in France. This recent British tradition of completely cutting alcohol consumption during the first month of the year has found its way across the Channel and is trying to settle in France. But why does the French government refuse to officially support this initiative? And anyway, in a country famous for its many wines, champagnes and beers, could such an initiative work?

Excellent!

I have tried several podcasts in French. This is my favorite by far. The stories are interesting and the fact the speaker speaks a little slower is super helpful. Well done!

Excellent way to practice listening and understanding

It is important to gain confidence in listening with understanding to the spoken language, which in turn will give me confidence in speaking. Gaelle’s voice is easy to listen to and her enunciation makes the understanding easy.

Good listening to get your skills up

I’m just starting to learn French, so I don’t really understand the full topic or stories, BUT she smartly uses the most common words that I’m learning so they stick in my head pretty quick.. I highly recommend this podcast

Just right!

I had a lot of trouble finding a French podcast that was not too advanced nor too elementary -- just right (aspiring intermediate)! Gaelle speaks clearly and at the perfect pace, with an uncanny sense of when she needs to break in with a clarifying word or two in English. Also her topics are interesting and well thought-out; I really enjoyed her latest series on French cities outside of Paris. (Strasbourg, peut-etre?) Congratulations, Gaelle, and keep it going!
