   Number 1: Le clafoutis aux abricots (les ep du 90) How Much Sugar, Exactly?

   Pour clore cette série de l’été, retour en 2020 pour un clafoutis aux abricots en famille — un épisode aussi doux et sucré que celui qui a lancé « les épisodes du 90″. Le 90 se cache dans une mesure, aujourd’hui — tendez bien l’oreille une dernière fois ! The perfect way to close this summer series: baking an apricot clafoutis with my daughters, multiplying a recipe, borrowing a pitter from a neighbor, and slowly getting ready for summer vacation. It’s a warm, everyday moment – kitchen vocabulary, family bickering over fruit in the batter, and one particularly tricky little question to say out loud with just the right intonation. This final episode brings the ‘épisodes du 90’ series full circle, echoing the very first rebroadcast that started it all. This summer, no pen, no notebook – just listening and speaking. Subscribers receive a podcast letter with this episode: a question to think about before pressing play, cultural markers to go deeper into the episode, a tricky little phrase worth practicing for its intonation alone, and a comprehension question to answer once you’ve heard the whole story. A different way to make progress in French.

   Number 2: Où trouver les meilleurs débardeurs blancs ? (Les ep du 90) Shopping Debate on a Bus Ride

   Dans ce neuvième épisode de la série de l’été, je vous embarque dans le bus 21 un samedi après-midi, où trois jeunes femmes discutent shopping juste derrière moi. Débardeurs blancs, marques, prix… et le 90 se cache dans un détail que vous ne verrez peut-être pas venir ! A slice of real, overheard French – three young women chatting on a Paris bus about clothes, brands, and where to find the perfect white tank top. This episode is pure eavesdropping gold: casual, fast, opinionated French exactly as it’s spoken between friends, packed with brand names, slang, and the kind of price-and-quality debate every shopper recognizes. There’s also an unexpected literary echo tucked into the story – a classic short story that suddenly comes to mind while listening in. This summer, no pen, no notebook – just listening and speaking. Subscribers receive a podcast letter with every episode: a question to think about before pressing play, cultural markers to go deeper into the episode, casual expressions worth noticing on a close relisten, and a comprehension question to answer once you’ve heard the whole story.

   Number 3: Le manteau bleu (Les ep du 90) Shopping for the Perfect Blue

   Dans ce troisième épisode de la série de l’été, direction 2013 pour une séance chez l’orthoptiste, une vitrine qui retient mon regard, et un manteau bleu que je porte encore aujourd’hui. A weekly eye exercise, a detour through a shop window, and a coat that turns out to be exactly the colour I’d been looking for. This episode is a small slice of everyday French life in 2013 – the kind of ordinary moment that, in French, comes with its own little vocabulary: window shopping, trying something on, giving in to curiosity. This summer, no pen, no notebook – just listening and speaking. Subscribers receive a podcast letter with this episode: a question to think about before pressing play, cultural markers to go deeper into the episode, three natural expressions to practice out loud, and a comprehension question to answer once you’ve listened all the way through.

   Number 4: En forêt avec le groupe de marche nordique (An Antidote to City Life?)

   Dimanche matin, 8h30, je suis au stade de Courbevoie, puis direction la forêt de Meudon avec mon groupe de marche nordique et notre coach Philippe. Neuf voix différentes : un vrai défi d'écoute, en immersion totale. Step into a real Sunday morning in the Meudon forest with my nordic walking group — nine different voices, real outdoor background noise, and one recurring question put to each walker: why do you come back here every week? This episode is unscripted, on-location French exactly as it happens — genuinely challenging to follow, and genuinely rewarding once you do. This is one of the more demanding episodes on the podcast: multiple speakers, natural interruptions, wind and forest sounds in the background, and the fast, casual rhythm of real outdoor conversation. It's a great stretch exercise for advanced listeners (B2–C1) who want to train their ear on the kind of French you'd actually encounter doing an activity with a group of French speakers. marche nordique · forêt de Meudon · Courbevoie · sport en plein air · reportage · spoken french · learn french · french stories · authentic french · real french · outdoor france · listening challenge What is nordic walking (marche nordique)?

   Number 5: Un concert, un corail géant et de l’eau : faire durer l’été (A Concert, a Coral, and a Pool)

   Comment prolonge-t-on une saison qu'on sent déjà partir ? La rentrée est là, mais l'esprit résiste encore un peu. Voici trois souvenirs d’été (deux à Paris et un en Italie), pour le faire durer un peu plus longtemps. Three very different memories from this summer, woven together by one simple desire: to make the season last a little longer before autumn takes over. An open-air concert by a Venezuelan singer with a spellbinding voice, a monumental contemporary art piece suspended inside a 16th-century Paris church steeped in royal and literary history, and the quiet, unexpected joy of a morning swim in the Italian hills. This episode is real, reflective, end-of-summer French. The vocabulary ranges comfortably across B1–B2 (describing a concert, a swim, a simple pleasure) while venturing into richer B2–C1 territory with historical and artistic vocabulary — centuries of French history condensed into a single church, and the vivid, poetic description of a giant red coral sculpture. A great episode for learners who enjoy reflective, essayistic French.
