In 1789, France officially protected a separation of Church and State with article 10 of Declaration of Rights of Man and Citizen. But the reality is... a bit more complicated.

Show up at 11:30am at a French person's home, and you'll likely be invited for apéro. But what makes this tradition stand out from cocktail hour? And why the heck can't you pour your own drink?

| 10 Oct 2021 | Ep 4 - Navigating "Francophonie" with Gemma King | 00:39:29 | |
The word francophonie might seem to mean "the ability to speak French," but when explored through a socio-political lens, it emerges as something far more complex than one might think at first glance.

| 24 Oct 2021 | Ep 6 - Navigating “Genre” with Loic Bourdeau | 00:30:57 | |
French is a gendered language, which means that not just people, but objects from table to knife to, yep, COVID, have a gender (feminine, masculine, and feminine, fwiw.)

You don't just set the table for the French Sunday meal – you endimancher it!

| 07 Nov 2021 | Ep 8 - Navigating "Aimer" with Sylvia Sabes | 00:25:34 | |
The French word aimer is used to mean both like and love – but despite this dual role in the language of romance, it's not actually used all that often! Journalist and author Sylvia Sabes joins Emily to discuss why "I love you" is far from a perfect translation for Je t'aime.

| 14 Nov 2021 | Ep 9 - Navigating "Terroir" with Fred Pouillot | 00:46:02 | |
Did you know that it's illegal to call sparkling wine Champagne unless it's made within a 130-square-mile region of France? This is just one aspect of an essential French concept known as terroir, an idea that links geography, culture, regionalism, and identity. Emily talks with cooking school owner Fred Pouillot about why the French care more about regional cheeses than regional sports and how one 19th-century ruler convinced the French they were all descended from the same Gaulish chieftain in this week's episode of Navigating the French.

Ep. 11 - Navigating “La Bise” with Scott Carpenter Many a traveler to France has encountered those airy, European cheek kisses, but la bise is actually tougher to navigate than it looks. Is it one kiss or two? Or three? Or four? Do you start to the left or the right? And with Covid surging, is la bise falling out of fashion forever?

| 12 Dec 2021 | Ep 13 - Navigating "Gastronomique" with Allison Zinder | 00:46:00 | |
When you go to a French restaurant, it's not all about the food. There's a certain theatrical bent, from the adornment of the table with all manner of flatware to the dramatic tableside flambage of your crêpe suzette.

In France, intellectual pursuits are so widespread that there’s a term to encompass the sorts of things folks are expected to know. It covers everything from French comic books based in Ancient Roman history to the newest cinematic masterpieces. To discuss culture générale, Emily is welcoming Mathilde Caër, a former bookseller and staff member at Paris’ museum of music. *Mathilde expresses her personal opinion and doesn't speak on behalf of the museums mentioned.

| 19 Dec 2021 | Ep 14 - Navigating "Correct" with Janet Hulstrand | 00:32:15 | |
The French are famous for their derision, correcting newcomers on their language, their way of dressing, and even the volume at which they speak. But they aren't being pedantic to be cruel – it's all linked to the deeply held value of being correct, as Emily explores this week with Janet Hulstrand, author of Demystifying the French: How to Love Them and Make Them Love You.

| 20 Feb 2022 | Ep 17 - Navigating “Débat” with Keith van Sickle | 00:30:22 | |
The French are natural contrarians, but their love of arguing goes a lot deeper than a simple desire to be right. With roots in 18th century philosophy and childhoods rife with being told they're wrong, the French love of débat is pervasive.

| 27 Feb 2022 | Ep 18 - Navigating “Les Valeurs Françaises” with Lily Radziemski | 00:26:56 | |
French culture is governed by a set of values: not just the libérté, égalité, fraternité formalized following the French Revolution, but also laïcité, culture générale, and more.

Emily chats with food historian Jim Chevallier, author of August Zang and the French Croissant. He’s here to explain why Marie-Antoinette could not have brought the croissant to Paris – and why her country of origin is still given credit for it through the word for this category of beloved breakfast pastries: Viennoiserie.

George Bush famously claimed that the French don't have a word for entrepreneur, and while we all laughed at the time, there may have been a kernel of truth to what he said! To discuss why entrepreneurship is a fairly foreign concept to most French people, Emily is joined by multi-passionate creative Anne Ditmeyer. She’s here to talk about why this word may have French origins but remains foreign to many French people. https://www.pret-a-voyager.com/2018/12/everything-i-learned-the-hard-way-about-running-a-business-in-france/ Find Anne Ditmeyer: https://www.anneditmeyer.com/ https://www.instagram.com/pretavoyager/?hl=en https://twitter.com/pretavoyager Find Us Online Website: https://www.parisundergroundradio.com/navigatingthefrench Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/parisundergroundradio Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/parisundergroundradio/ Credits - Host: Emily Monaco. @Emily_in_France; Website: http://www.tomatokumato.com and http://www.emilymmonaco.com Producer: Jennifer Geraghty. @jennyphoria; Website: http://jennyphoria.com Music Credits Édith Piaf - La Vie en Rose (DeliFB Lofi Remix) 🎵 MSKD Sounds: ↪︎https://www.instagram.com/mskd_sounds/ ↪︎https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCRql... ↪︎https://soundcloud.com/mskd_sounds 🎵 DeliFB: ↪︎https://www.youtube.com/c/DeliFB ↪︎https://soundcloud.com/delifb ↪︎https://www.instagram.com/cativo.kevin/ ↪︎https://twitter.com/DeliciousFB About Us From one Emily in Paris to another... just speaking French isn't enough to understand the intricacies of the locals, but it's definitely a good place to start.

Books are an inextricable part of French culture, and so is where you get them. Librairie is a false cognate – the French word, not for library, but for bookshop. On this episode of Navigating the French, Emily is joined by Janet Skeslien Charles, author of the award-winning novel The Paris Library, to talk about this false friend as well as the place of both bookshops and libraries in French culture today.

| 27 Mar 2022 | Ep 22 - Navigating “Argot” with Charlie Whitesides | 00:27:26 | |
The French may seem really set in their linguistic ways, but French is an evolving, changing language, like any other! It features multiple registers, from familiar to respectful, and it also has more than its share of unique slang expressions, dubbed argot. Here to explore what makes contemporary French unique is Charlie Whitesides, founder of Street French, a resource for Anglophones who want to speak French like the French do. https://street-french.teachable.com/p/swearing-like-a-parisian https://amzn.to/3sHGdKm Wine Dine Lyon: https://www.winedinecaroline.com/french-wine-tours-retreats/lyon-french-wine-tour/ Join us on Patreon: Patreon.com/parisundergroundradio Find Us Online Website: https://www.parisundergroundradio.com/navigatingthefrench Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/parisundergroundradio Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/parisundergroundradio/ Credits - Host: Emily Monaco. @Emily_in_France; Website: http://www.tomatokumato.com and http://www.emilymmonaco.com Producer: Jennifer Geraghty. @jennyphoria; Website: http://jennyphoria.com Music Credits Édith Piaf - La Vie en Rose (DeliFB Lofi Remix) 🎵 MSKD Sounds: ↪︎https://www.instagram.com/mskd_sounds/ ↪︎https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCRql... ↪︎https://soundcloud.com/mskd_sounds 🎵 DeliFB: ↪︎https://www.youtube.com/c/DeliFB ↪︎https://soundcloud.com/delifb ↪︎https://www.instagram.com/cativo.kevin/ ↪︎https://twitter.com/DeliciousFB About Us From one Emily in Paris to another... just speaking French isn't enough to understand the intricacies of the locals, but it's definitely a good place to start.

| 03 Apr 2022 | Ep 23 - Navigating “D’Origine” with Dr. Gemma King | 00:30:24 | |
The French would love for you to believe they’re all descended from the Gauls, and as a society have fairly assimilationist views of what makes someone French. Dr. Gemma King is here to help shed some light on a term that might appear to be purely descriptive of a multiplicity of identities within the tapestry of Frenchness but actually has some built-in connotations of purity and what it means to be truly French: d’origine. gemmasking.com @gemma_s_king Join us on Patreon: www.patreon.com/parisundergroundradio Find Us Online Website: https://www.parisundergroundradio.com/navigatingthefrench Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/parisundergroundradio Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/parisundergroundradio/ Credits - Host: Emily Monaco. @Emily_in_France; Website: http://www.tomatokumato.com and http://www.emilymmonaco.com Producer: Jennifer Geraghty. @jennyphoria; Website: http://jennyphoria.com Music Credits Édith Piaf - La Vie en Rose (DeliFB Lofi Remix) 🎵 MSKD Sounds: ↪︎https://www.instagram.com/mskd_sounds/ ↪︎https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCRql... ↪︎https://soundcloud.com/mskd_sounds 🎵 DeliFB: ↪︎https://www.youtube.com/c/DeliFB ↪︎https://soundcloud.com/delifb ↪︎https://www.instagram.com/cativo.kevin/ ↪︎https://twitter.com/DeliciousFB About Us From one Emily in Paris to another... just speaking French isn't enough to understand the intricacies of the locals, but it's definitely a good place to start.

| 10 Apr 2022 | Ep 24 - Navigating “Boulangère” with Alice Quillet | 00:32:54 | |
As a very gendered language, French implies a masculine or feminine even in professions: a female chef is called a cheffe; a female poet could be une poète. But une boulangère isn't just a female baker – at least, not in a historical context. To explore why, Emily is chatting with Alice Quillet, co-owner and co-founder of the Ten Belles bakery and coffee shops.

Whenever you start eating in France, whether you're sitting down to a several-course dinner or scarfing a sandwich on the métro, you'll hear the phatic expression – almost a rallying cry: bon appétit.

The French may often look glum, but there's far more to their joy than meets the eye. This week, Emily is joined by author Harriet Welty Rochefort. She's here to explore why it's not ironic that we've borrowed this phrase from the French: joie de vivre.

| 10 Jul 2022 | Ep 29 - Navigating “Travail” with Lindsey Tramuta | 00:45:13 | |
The French are frequently unfairly pegged as lazy, with a 35-hour work week and generous vacation policy. But the French approach to travail goes far deeper than that, with the roots of the push for workers rights dating back to revolts in the 18th, 19th, and even 20th centuries. Here to explore the French relationship with work, labor, and, yes, smoke breaks, is journalist Lindsey Tramuta, author of The New Paris and The New Parisienne.

In a land known for its pastry, one word seems to carry a lot of weight. Doux can mean sweet, unsalted, mild, or even soft. To discuss why this is – and what the French expect in terms of both taste and texture when it comes to their food – Emily is talking with Jane Bertch, founder and owner of La Cuisine cooking school in Paris.

A double entendre often alludes to an underlying, dirty interpretation of what we've actually said, but according to Heloïse Prieur, French language and culture coach, translator, and founder of Belle Entente, the fact that this expression comes from French says a lot more about the Anglo-American perception of French culture than the reality. She's here to talk about why the French say what they mean and mean what they say.

What the hippies were to North America, the 68ers or 68ards were in France. To address this political movement that essentially saw France shut down in May of 1968 is Dr. Ben Mercer, Senior Lecturer at the School of History at the Australian National University.

When a burger is deluxe, it’s bigger. But de luxe in French has no such connotations of size. Here to explore the je ne sais quoi that has given anything French such a connotation of luxury is Lane Nieset, an accomplished journalist and specialist in luxury travel here in France. http://lanenieset.com/ https://www.instagram.com/lanenieset/ Join us on Patreon: patreon.com/parisundergroundradio Find Us Online Website: https://www.parisundergroundradio.com/navigatingthefrench Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/parisundergroundradio Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/parisundergroundradio/ Credits - Host: Emily Monaco. @Emily_in_France; Website: http://www.tomatokumato.com and http://www.emilymmonaco.com Producer: Jennifer Geraghty. @jennyphoria; Website: http://jennyphoria.com Music Credits Édith Piaf - La Vie en Rose (DeliFB Lofi Remix) 🎵 MSKD Sounds: ↪︎https://www.instagram.com/mskd_sounds/ ↪︎https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCRql... ↪︎https://soundcloud.com/mskd_sounds 🎵 DeliFB: ↪︎https://www.youtube.com/c/DeliFB ↪︎https://soundcloud.com/delifb ↪︎https://www.instagram.com/cativo.kevin/ ↪︎https://twitter.com/DeliciousFB About Us From one Emily in Paris to another... just speaking French isn't enough to understand the intricacies of the locals, but it's definitely a good place to start.

| 14 Aug 2022 | Ep 34 - Navigating “Bouillon” with Allison Zinder | 00:36:49 | |
Wine bar, bistro, café, bouillon… it seems Paris is rife with a panoply of categories to which restaurants can belong. To explore the reasons why the culinary landscape seems so divided – and why the modern nomenclature is a bit outdated – Emily is chatting with culinary educator Allison Zinder about a word that’s far more than just a cube: bouillon.

| 21 Aug 2022 | Ep 35 - Navigating “Profiter” with Zeva Bellel | 00:36:10 | |
Students of French are certainly not strangers to faux amis – those false cognates that look like one thing and mean another. This week, Emily is joined by Zeva Bellel, a career and personal leadership coach based in Paris, to explore the ins and outs of one of the most misleading false friends: profiter. This word is linked not to economics, but rather to the intrinsic – and rapidly evolving – relationship the French have with work and pleasure. https://www.zevabellel.com/ https://www.instagram.com/zevab/ Join us on Patreon: patreon.com/parisundergroundradio Find Us Online Website: https://www.parisundergroundradio.com/navigatingthefrench Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/parisundergroundradio Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/parisundergroundradio/ Credits - Host: Emily Monaco. @Emily_in_France; Website: http://www.tomatokumato.com and http://www.emilymmonaco.com Producer: Jennifer Geraghty. @jennyphoria; Website: http://jennyphoria.com Music Credits Édith Piaf - La Vie en Rose (DeliFB Lofi Remix) 🎵 MSKD Sounds: ↪︎https://www.instagram.com/mskd_sounds/ ↪︎https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCRql... ↪︎https://soundcloud.com/mskd_sounds 🎵 DeliFB: ↪︎https://www.youtube.com/c/DeliFB ↪︎https://soundcloud.com/delifb ↪︎https://www.instagram.com/cativo.kevin/ ↪︎https://twitter.com/DeliciousFB About Us From one Emily in Paris to another... just speaking French isn't enough to understand the intricacies of the locals, but it's definitely a good place to start.

| 02 Oct 2022 | Ep 37 - Navigating “La Pause Déj” with Martin Bruegel | 00:27:55 | |
Outsiders looking in are wont to wax poetic about the French lunch hour as an emblem of the French work ethic, but la pause déj actually got its start for reasons of hygiene. To explore the ins and outs of what makes the French lunch hour so special, Emily is joined by historian Martin Bruegel, author of Food History: A Feast of the Senses in Europe.

| 25 Sep 2022 | Ep 36 - Navigating “La Rentrée” with Anna Polonyi | 00:27:17 | |
While often translated as "back to school," la rentrée encompasses far more than pens and paper and new outfits.

| 09 Oct 2022 | Ep 38 - Navigating “Péché Mignon” with Alex Partridge | 00:25:34 | |
The media talk far too much about how the French manage to eat rich food without gaining weight or incurring health woes. The reality is that for the most part, they don't frame their dining around guilt at all! To explore how the French do perceive of their "guilty pleasures" is Alex Partridge, a French instructor and content creator based in Paris. He’s here to discuss a phrase that directly translates to "cute sin" – péché mignon – and to explore how and why a reframing of pleasure means the French can truly embrace deliciousness. https://www.instagram.com/alexteachesfrench/ Join us on Patreon: patreon.com/parisundergroundradio Find Us Online Website: https://www.parisundergroundradio.com/navigatingthefrench Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/parisundergroundradio Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/parisundergroundradio/ Credits - Host: Emily Monaco. @Emily_in_France; Website: http://www.tomatokumato.com and http://www.emilymmonaco.com Producer: Jennifer Geraghty. @jennyphoria; Website: http://jennyphoria.com Music Credits Édith Piaf - La Vie en Rose (DeliFB Lofi Remix) 🎵 MSKD Sounds: ↪︎https://www.instagram.com/mskd_sounds/ ↪︎https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCRql... ↪︎https://soundcloud.com/mskd_sounds 🎵 DeliFB: ↪︎https://www.youtube.com/c/DeliFB ↪︎https://soundcloud.com/delifb ↪︎https://www.instagram.com/cativo.kevin/ ↪︎https://twitter.com/DeliciousFB About Us From one Emily in Paris to another... just speaking French isn't enough to understand the intricacies of the locals, but it's definitely a good place to start.

In France, non doesn't necessarily mean no. BBC journalist Sylvia Sabes joins Emily this week to explore the ways in which the French use non, not as outright refusal, but as a bargaining tool, means of analysis, and even flirtation ritual. https://www.bbc.com/travel/article/20190804-why-the-french-love-to-say-no Join us on Patreon: patreon.com/parisundergroundradio Find Us Online Website: https://www.parisundergroundradio.com/navigatingthefrench Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/parisundergroundradio Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/parisundergroundradio/ Credits - Host: Emily Monaco. @Emily_in_France; Website: http://www.tomatokumato.com and http://www.emilymmonaco.com Producer: Jennifer Geraghty. @jennyphoria; Website: http://jennyphoria.com Music Credits Édith Piaf - La Vie en Rose (DeliFB Lofi Remix) 🎵 MSKD Sounds: ↪︎https://www.instagram.com/mskd_sounds/ ↪︎https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCRql... ↪︎https://soundcloud.com/mskd_sounds 🎵 DeliFB: ↪︎https://www.youtube.com/c/DeliFB ↪︎https://soundcloud.com/delifb ↪︎https://www.instagram.com/cativo.kevin/ ↪︎https://twitter.com/DeliciousFB About Us From one Emily in Paris to another... just speaking French isn't enough to understand the intricacies of the locals, but it's definitely a good place to start.

| 23 Oct 2022 | Ep 40 - Navigating “Echec” with Peter Gumbel | 00:36:21 | |
Head to a French school and suggest a game of chess, and you may have a bunch of nervous kids before you! Echecs is indeed the word used for chess, but it's also a word linked to failure – and one that's bandied about far more in the French school system than elsewhere. Here to discuss the dogmatic rigidity of the system that has unfortunately led to widespread failure among French students is Peter Gumbel, journalist and author of They Shoot School Kids, Don't They? http://www.petergumbel.com/fr/bio https://www.amazon.fr/Shoot-School-Essai-blanche-English-ebook/dp/B005P8GOVQ https://www.amazon.fr/French-School-Without-Tears-English-ebook/dp/B012UGYBTC Join us on Patreon: patreon.com/parisundergroundradio Find Us Online Website: https://www.parisundergroundradio.com/navigatingthefrench Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/parisundergroundradio Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/parisundergroundradio/ Credits - Host: Emily Monaco. @Emily_in_France; Website: http://www.tomatokumato.com and http://www.emilymmonaco.com Producer: Jennifer Geraghty. @jennyphoria; Website: http://jennyphoria.com Music Credits Édith Piaf - La Vie en Rose (DeliFB Lofi Remix) 🎵 MSKD Sounds: ↪︎https://www.instagram.com/mskd_sounds/ ↪︎https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCRql... ↪︎https://soundcloud.com/mskd_sounds 🎵 DeliFB: ↪︎https://www.youtube.com/c/DeliFB ↪︎https://soundcloud.com/delifb ↪︎https://www.instagram.com/cativo.kevin/ ↪︎https://twitter.com/DeliciousFB About Us From one Emily in Paris to another... just speaking French isn't enough to understand the intricacies of the locals, but it's definitely a good place to start.

Make 'em laugh? Not necessarily! In France, comédie retains some of its Ancient Greek meaning – and doesn't necessarily include any jokes.

| 06 Nov 2022 | Ep 42 - Navigating “Individualisme” with Kathryn English | 00:40:47 | |
Some cognates have wholly different meanings in French and in English, but others differ merely in their connotation. To explore one flagrant difference is Kathryn English, a researcher and linguist at Université de Paris II, Panthéon-Assas. She's here to discuss a word that has strikingly positive connotations in English... and strikingly negative ones in French: individualisme. http://web.mit.edu/french/culturaNEH1/ The article we referenced https://link.springer.com/article/10.1057/s41253-020-00139-1 Join us on Patreon: patreon.com/parisundergroundradio Find Us Online Website: https://www.parisundergroundradio.com/navigatingthefrench Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/parisundergroundradio Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/parisundergroundradio/ Credits - Host: Emily Monaco. @Emily_in_France; Website: http://www.tomatokumato.com and http://www.emilymmonaco.com Producer: Jennifer Geraghty. @jennyphoria; Website: http://jennyphoria.com Music Credits Édith Piaf - La Vie en Rose (DeliFB Lofi Remix) 🎵 MSKD Sounds: ↪︎https://www.instagram.com/mskd_sounds/ ↪︎https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCRql... ↪︎https://soundcloud.com/mskd_sounds 🎵 DeliFB: ↪︎https://www.youtube.com/c/DeliFB ↪︎https://soundcloud.com/delifb ↪︎https://www.instagram.com/cativo.kevin/ ↪︎https://twitter.com/DeliciousFB About Us From one Emily in Paris to another... just speaking French isn't enough to understand the intricacies of the locals, but it's definitely a good place to start.

| 13 Nov 2022 | Ep 43 - Navigating “Souvenir” with Ellen Hampton | 00:26:47 | |
If the word souvenir evokes a plastic Eiffel Tower trinket, this episode is about to blow your mind. In French, souvenir is not just a noun but a verb, evoking the very act of memory. Emily is welcoming author Ellen Hampton back to the podcast to discuss the differences between personal and collective memory – specifically in the context of World War II – and exploring how the Resistance gained traction long after it was necessary and why France did not publicly acknowledge its role in the Shoah until 1995 – more than 50 years after the fact.

Bouchon means cork but also traffic jam, in French. But neither is the meaning that Emily is discussing on this episode with Lucy Vanel, a culinary instructor based in Lyon.

| 12 Feb 2023 | Ep 48 - Navigating “Garant” with Gail Boisclair | 00:22:23 | |
The English words warranty and guarantee both come from the French garantie, but French has a word English doesn't: garant. To explore what this word means, Emily is joined by fellow PUR host Gail Boisclair. Her work as a property manager in Paris will help us shine a light on how the necessity of a garant reflects an innate French trust in people over data... and a bit of a tendency to resist change. parisundergroundradio.com/parisestateofmind perfectlyparis.com Join us on Patreon: patreon.com/parisundergroundradio Find Us Online Website: https://www.parisundergroundradio.com/navigatingthefrench Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/parisundergroundradio Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/parisundergroundradio/ Credits - Host: Emily Monaco. @Emily_in_France; Website: http://www.tomatokumato.com and http://www.emilymmonaco.com Producer: Jennifer Geraghty. @jennyphoria; Website: http://jennyphoria.com Music Credits Édith Piaf - La Vie en Rose (DeliFB Lofi Remix) 🎵 MSKD Sounds: ↪︎https://www.instagram.com/mskd_sounds/ ↪︎https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCRql... ↪︎https://soundcloud.com/mskd_sounds 🎵 DeliFB: ↪︎https://www.youtube.com/c/DeliFB ↪︎https://soundcloud.com/delifb ↪︎https://www.instagram.com/cativo.kevin/ ↪︎https://twitter.com/DeliciousFB About Us From one Emily in Paris to another... just speaking French isn't enough to understand the intricacies of the locals, but it's definitely a good place to start.

| 22 Jan 2023 | Ep 45 - Navigating “Résistance" with Diane de Vignemont | 00:41:51 | |
The French Resistance holds a very solid spot in the romanticized view of French history, whether you're in the U.S. or, indeed, in France. But this period of time is far from anchored wholly in the past. To unpack the history of the Résistance – the way the story is told and the way it's used to mobilize modern politics – Emily is joined by historian and journalist Diane de Vignemont. https://twitter.com/Diane2V Join us on Patreon: patreon.com/parisundergroundradio Find Us Online Website: https://www.parisundergroundradio.com/navigatingthefrench Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/parisundergroundradio Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/parisundergroundradio/ Credits Host: Emily Monaco. @Emily_in_France; Website: http://www.tomatokumato.com and http://www.emilymmonaco.com Producer: Jennifer Geraghty. @jennyphoria; Website: http://jennyphoria.com Music Credits Édith Piaf - La Vie en Rose (DeliFB Lofi Remix) 🎵 MSKD Sounds: https://www.instagram.com/mskd_sounds/ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCRql... https://soundcloud.com/mskd_sounds 🎵 DeliFB: https://www.youtube.com/c/DeliFB https://soundcloud.com/delifb https://www.instagram.com/cativo.kevin/ https://twitter.com/DeliciousFB About Us From one Emily in Paris to another... just speaking French isn't enough to understand the intricacies of the locals, but it's definitely a good place to start.

In 2010, the French gastronomic meal was protected as a part of UNESCO's intangible cultural heritage – and the food was only part of the package. To discuss some of the other elements so entwined in this bastion of Frenchness is Camille Drozdz, the product designer and ceramicist behind Ici l'Atelier and a co-host of TERRE/MER terroir-based retreats in the South of France. She’s here to discuss a phrase closely linked to that oh-so-French passion for food – but rather than talk about what’s in the dishes, she’s interested in the dishes themselves. Art de la table.

| 19 Feb 2023 | Ep 49 - Navigating “Étranger” with Dr. Antonia Wimbush | 00:38:40 | |
Many French language learners first encounter the false friend étranger by way of Albert Camus' seminal work, but its translation is rife with complexity. Is étranger best translated as "stranger?" "Outsider?" "Foreigner?" The answer is murky – but Dr. Antonia Wimbush, a researcher working on a project delving into French Caribbean migration in literature, is joining Emily to try to get to the root of it. https://twitter.com/wimbush_antonia https://www.liverpooluniversitypress.co.uk/doi/book/10.3828/9781800859913 Join us on Patreon: patreon.com/parisundergroundradio Find Us Online Website: https://www.parisundergroundradio.com/navigatingthefrench Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/parisundergroundradio Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/parisundergroundradio/ Credits Host: Emily Monaco. @Emily_in_France; Website: http://www.tomatokumato.com and http://www.emilymmonaco.com Producer: Jennifer Geraghty. @jennyphoria; Website: http://jennyphoria.com Music Credits Édith Piaf - La Vie en Rose (DeliFB Lofi Remix) 🎵 MSKD Sounds: https://www.instagram.com/mskd_sounds/ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCRql... https://soundcloud.com/mskd_sounds 🎵 DeliFB: https://www.youtube.com/c/DeliFB https://soundcloud.com/delifb https://www.instagram.com/cativo.kevin/ https://twitter.com/DeliciousFB About Us From one Emily in Paris to another... just speaking French isn't enough to understand the intricacies of the locals, but it's definitely a good place to start.

Molly Wilkinson is an American expat who’s living the dream teaching folks how to perfect the art of French desserts. It’s no surprise, then, that she’s here to chat with Emily about everything from cooking school to bakeries to the patron saint of pastry on this episode delving into the word pâtisserie. https://www.mollyjwilk.com/bienvenue-im-molly/ https://www.instagram.com/mollyjwilk/?hl=en Join us on Patreon: patreon.com/parisundergroundradio Find Us Online Website: https://www.parisundergroundradio.com/navigatingthefrench Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/parisundergroundradio Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/parisundergroundradio/ Credits Host: Emily Monaco. @Emily_in_France; Website: http://www.tomatokumato.com and http://www.emilymmonaco.com Producer: Jennifer Geraghty. @jennyphoria; Website: http://jennyphoria.com Music Credits Édith Piaf - La Vie en Rose (DeliFB Lofi Remix) 🎵 MSKD Sounds: https://www.instagram.com/mskd_sounds/ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCRql... https://soundcloud.com/mskd_sounds 🎵 DeliFB: https://www.youtube.com/c/DeliFB https://soundcloud.com/delifb https://www.instagram.com/cativo.kevin/ https://twitter.com/DeliciousFB About Us From one Emily in Paris to another... just speaking French isn't enough to understand the intricacies of the locals, but it's definitely a good place to start.

| 12 Mar 2023 | Ep 52 - Navigating “Libertine” with Edith de Belleville | 00:39:53 | |
One pervasive stereotype positions the French as having many lovers, but this is far from the whole story. To explore the complex relationship between French culture and sex, Emily is joined by Edith de Belleville, a lawyer turned tour guide who is delving deep into the 17th and 18th century and the origins of this week's word: libertine. https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/1667831984/ref=tmm_pap_swatch_0?ie=UTF8&qid=&sr= https://www.amazon.fr/Belles-rebelles-Dans-grandes-Parisiennes/dp/2915543704 https://www.edithdebelleville.com/ https://www.nyadventureclub.com/search/Perfume Join us on Patreon: patreon.com/parisundergroundradio Find Us Online Website: https://www.parisundergroundradio.com/navigatingthefrench Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/parisundergroundradio Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/parisundergroundradio/ Credits Host: Emily Monaco. @Emily_in_France; Website: http://www.tomatokumato.com and http://www.emilymmonaco.com Producer: Jennifer Geraghty. @jennyphoria; Website: http://jennyphoria.com Music Credits Édith Piaf - La Vie en Rose (DeliFB Lofi Remix) 🎵 MSKD Sounds: https://www.instagram.com/mskd_sounds/ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCRql... https://soundcloud.com/mskd_sounds 🎵 DeliFB: https://www.youtube.com/c/DeliFB https://soundcloud.com/delifb https://www.instagram.com/cativo.kevin/ https://twitter.com/DeliciousFB About Us From one Emily in Paris to another... just speaking French isn't enough to understand the intricacies of the locals, but it's definitely a good place to start.

| 05 Mar 2023 | Ep 51 - Navigating “Grève” with Emma Pearson | 00:25:10 | |
If you believe the news, you may think that the French are constantly on strike. But the reality is a lot more nuanced, as Emma Pearson, editor of the Local, is here to explain the significance of the word grève as it pertains to the French character and the very fabric of social life here. That this episode’s recording was pushed back twice due to strikes is… well, probably par for the course. https://twitter.com/LocalFR_Emma https://www.thelocal.fr/ https://www.cestlagreve.fr/ Join us on Patreon: patreon.com/parisundergroundradio Find Us Online Website: https://www.parisundergroundradio.com/navigatingthefrench Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/parisundergroundradio Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/parisundergroundradio/ Credits Host: Emily Monaco. @Emily_in_France; Website: http://www.tomatokumato.com and http://www.emilymmonaco.com Producer: Jennifer Geraghty. @jennyphoria; Website: http://jennyphoria.com Music Credits Édith Piaf - La Vie en Rose (DeliFB Lofi Remix) 🎵 MSKD Sounds: https://www.instagram.com/mskd_sounds/ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCRql... https://soundcloud.com/mskd_sounds 🎵 DeliFB: https://www.youtube.com/c/DeliFB https://soundcloud.com/delifb https://www.instagram.com/cativo.kevin/ https://twitter.com/DeliciousFB About Us From one Emily in Paris to another... just speaking French isn't enough to understand the intricacies of the locals, but it's definitely a good place to start.

| 19 Mar 2023 | Ep 53 - Navigating “Province” with Forest Collins | 00:36:50 | |
France is far more than just Paris; indeed, 45 percent of the country is still agricultural. And the French countryside, despite our provincial fantasies, is not trapped in the past. To debunk the clichés and stereotypes – and shed light on the reality – Emily is joined by Forest Collins, the cocktail expert behind 52 Martinis and a part-time resident of the countryside le Perche, to delve into a world that draws a distinct line between Paris and elsewhere: province. https://www.instagram.com/52martinis/ Join us on Patreon: patreon.com/parisundergroundradio Find Us Online Website: https://www.parisundergroundradio.com/navigatingthefrench Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/parisundergroundradio Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/parisundergroundradio/ Credits Host: Emily Monaco. @Emily_in_France; Website: http://www.tomatokumato.com and http://www.emilymmonaco.com Producer: Jennifer Geraghty. @jennyphoria; Website: http://jennyphoria.com Music Credits Édith Piaf - La Vie en Rose (DeliFB Lofi Remix) 🎵 MSKD Sounds: https://www.instagram.com/mskd_sounds/ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCRql... https://soundcloud.com/mskd_sounds 🎵 DeliFB: https://www.youtube.com/c/DeliFB https://soundcloud.com/delifb https://www.instagram.com/cativo.kevin/ https://twitter.com/DeliciousFB About Us From one Emily in Paris to another... just speaking French isn't enough to understand the intricacies of the locals, but it's definitely a good place to start.

| 26 Mar 2023 | Ep 54 - Navigating “Tripes” with Jennifer McClagan | 00:33:21 | |
French idioms often use body parts to evoke emotion. Feeling things dans les tripes means feeling them at your core; having le spleen is a way of evoking malaise. A crise de foie – a liver crisis – is another term for indigestion, and having mal aux reins or “painful kidneys” means you have backache. That the French are so familiar with their bodies may be one reason that they’re also so comfortable with eating all parts of them, as Emily discusses with Jennifer McClagan, the acclaimed author of books entitled Bones, Odd Bits, and Blood.

| 21 May 2023 | Ep 55 - Navigating “Retraite” with Chris O’Brien | 00:31:10 | |
The word retraite has two apt translations: retirement and retreat. And while the French predilection for both is portrayed in somewhat outsized fashion in the international news media, it’s an apt word to discuss these days, in the wake of retirement reforms pushed through by a largely absent chief executive, President Macron. Here to get to the bottom of this issue is Chris O’Brien, the American journalist behind the newsletter French Crossroads. https://frenchcrossroads.substack.com/ http://www.chris-obrien.com/ https://twitter.com/obrien https://frenchtechjournal.com/ https://seriese.media/author/chris-obrien/ Join us on Patreon: patreon.com/parisundergroundradio Find Us Online Website: https://www.parisundergroundradio.com/navigatingthefrench Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/parisundergroundradio Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/parisundergroundradio/ Credits Host: Emily Monaco. @Emily_in_France; Website: http://www.tomatokumato.com and http://www.emilymmonaco.com Producer: Jennifer Geraghty. @jennyphoria; Website: http://jennyphoria.com Music Credits Édith Piaf - La Vie en Rose (DeliFB Lofi Remix) 🎵 MSKD Sounds: https://www.instagram.com/mskd_sounds/ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCRql... https://soundcloud.com/mskd_sounds 🎵 DeliFB: https://www.youtube.com/c/DeliFB https://soundcloud.com/delifb https://www.instagram.com/cativo.kevin/ https://twitter.com/DeliciousFB About Us From one Emily in Paris to another... just speaking French isn't enough to understand the intricacies of the locals, but it's definitely a good place to start.

| 28 May 2023 | Ep 56 - Navigating “Cinéma” with Manon Kerjean | 00:31:44 | |
Faire son cinéma is to live in a dream world; arrête ton cinéma means stop being a drama queen. Manon Kerjean is the co-founder of Lost in Frenchlation, a program that screens French films with English subtitles in arthouse cinemas in Paris. She’s here not only to share these idioms with Emily, but also to discuss how essential cinéma is to French culture – and to foreign perceptions of France.

| 04 Jun 2023 | Ep 57 - Navigating “Lumière” with Knox Peden | 00:35:58 | |
When people call Paris the City of Light, it evokes images of a rose-tinted city illuminated by beautiful street lamps. But this "Light" is actually of a philosophical nature, as researcher Knox Peden is here to explain. In our conversation on lumière, he delves into the tenets of this philosophy and how it still resonates in French culture centuries later.

| 11 Jun 2023 | Ep 58 - Navigating “Française” with Iris Goldsztajn | 00:25:34 | |
If the self-help section of Barnes and Noble is to be believed, French women parent better, dress better, have sex better, cook better, lose weight better… and all with no effort at all! It's a mindset that has given Anglo-American readers almost impossible ideals to live up to, but it also has negative repercussions on teen girls growing up in an environment where it’s not cool to try… or even to care. Here to discuss how harmful the “French Girl Aesthetic" can be on teens growing up in such a context is real-life Française Iris Goldsztajn, a journalist who took Twitter by storm with her critique of this mindset. https://twitter.com/irisgoldsztajn/status/1620049542329806849 https://www.irisgoldsztajn.com/ https://www.vogue.co.uk/arts-and-lifestyle/article/french-girl-problematic Join us on Patreon: patreon.com/parisundergroundradio Find Us Online Website: https://www.parisundergroundradio.com/navigatingthefrench Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/parisundergroundradio Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/parisundergroundradio/ Credits Host: Emily Monaco. @Emily_in_France; Website: http://www.tomatokumato.com and http://www.emilymmonaco.com Producer: Jennifer Geraghty. @jennyphoria; Website: http://jennyphoria.com Music Credits Édith Piaf - La Vie en Rose (DeliFB Lofi Remix) 🎵 MSKD Sounds: https://www.instagram.com/mskd_sounds/ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCRql... https://soundcloud.com/mskd_sounds 🎵 DeliFB: https://www.youtube.com/c/DeliFB https://soundcloud.com/delifb https://www.instagram.com/cativo.kevin/ https://twitter.com/DeliciousFB About Us From one Emily in Paris to another... just speaking French isn't enough to understand the intricacies of the locals, but it's definitely a good place to start.

“Simple” might be the last word you’d think of to describe French cakes, and yet in contrast to all of those ornate patisseries, French home bakes are indeed surprisingly plain, frugal, and, yes, simple. Here to explore how and why is Aleksandra Crapanzano, a James Beard Award–winning writer and dessert columnist for The Wall Street Journal for over a decade. She’s also the author of a book that gets to the bottom of le cake: Gateau: The Surprising Simplicity of French Cakes. https://www.amazon.com/Gateau-Surprising-Simplicity-French-Cakes/dp/1982169737 Join us on Patreon: patreon.com/parisundergroundradio Find Us Online Website: https://www.parisundergroundradio.com/navigatingthefrench Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/parisundergroundradio Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/parisundergroundradio/ Credits Host: Emily Monaco. @Emily_in_France; Website: http://www.tomatokumato.com and http://www.emilymmonaco.com Producer: Jennifer Geraghty. @jennyphoria; Website: http://jennyphoria.com Music Credits Édith Piaf - La Vie en Rose (DeliFB Lofi Remix) 🎵 MSKD Sounds: https://www.instagram.com/mskd_sounds/ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCRql... https://soundcloud.com/mskd_sounds 🎵 DeliFB: https://www.youtube.com/c/DeliFB https://soundcloud.com/delifb https://www.instagram.com/cativo.kevin/ https://twitter.com/DeliciousFB About Us From one Emily in Paris to another... just speaking French isn't enough to understand the intricacies of the locals, but it's definitely a good place to start.

| 02 Jul 2023 | Ep 61 - Navigating “Intégration” with Megan Brown | 00:35:09 | |
In France, a "good" immigrant is one who is intégré, integrated. This concept encapsulates values, language, culture, religion... and has frequently been weaponized against people of color. To delve into the ways in which this value looms large and small in French culture, Emily is joined by Megan Brown, a historian of Modern Europe with a focus on 20th-century France, European integration, and empire at Swarthmore college.

The French love to speak in negatives: not bad instead of good, not false instead of true.

| 10 Mar 2024 | Ep 65 - Navigating “Tutoiement” with Ian Winick | 00:24:23 | |
If you start to get along fairly well with a new French acquaintance, you might field the question... On peut se tutoyer ? "Can we say tu?" This phrase allows you to change registers from the formal to the informal at the drop of a hat – something that English doesn't allow quite so easily, as translator Ian Winick is here to discuss. https://www.ianwinick.com/en/how-do-you-du/ https://www.reddit.com/r/learnfrench/comments/gv1vqt/a_handy_chart_for_those_confused_by_the_usage_of/ Join us on Patreon: patreon.com/parisundergroundradio Find Us Online Website: https://www.parisundergroundradio.com/navigatingthefrench Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/parisundergroundradio Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/parisundergroundradio/ Credits Host: Emily Monaco. @Emily_in_France; Website: http://www.tomatokumato.com and http://www.emilymmonaco.com Producer: Jennifer Geraghty. @jennyphoria; Website: http://jennyphoria.com Music Credits Édith Piaf - La Vie en Rose (DeliFB Lofi Remix) 🎵 MSKD Sounds: https://www.instagram.com/mskd_sounds/ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCRql... https://soundcloud.com/mskd_sounds 🎵 DeliFB: https://www.youtube.com/c/DeliFB https://soundcloud.com/delifb https://www.instagram.com/cativo.kevin/ https://twitter.com/DeliciousFB About Us rom one Emily in Paris to another... just speaking French isn't enough to understand the intricacies of the locals, but it's definitely a good place to start.

| 17 Mar 2024 | Ep 66 - Navigating “Pain de Campagne” with Apollonia Poilâne | 00:31:09 | |
Baguette may seem like France's most emblematic loaf, but pain de campagne or country bread tells the story of France's relationship with bread far more aptly.

The word favorite doesn't really mean favorite, in France. Instead, it evokes a centuries-long tradition of sex, power, and gender roles in the French courts, as sisters and academics Christine and Tracy Adams are here to share. https://www.psupress.org/books/titles/978-0-271-08597-5.html Join us on Patreon: patreon.com/parisundergroundradio Find Us Online Website: https://www.parisundergroundradio.com/navigatingthefrench Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/parisundergroundradio Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/parisundergroundradio/ Credits Host: Emily Monaco. @Emily_in_France; Website: http://www.tomatokumato.com and http://www.emilymmonaco.com Producer: Jennifer Geraghty. @jennyphoria; Website: http://jennyphoria.com Music Credits Édith Piaf - La Vie en Rose (DeliFB Lofi Remix) 🎵 MSKD Sounds: https://www.instagram.com/mskd_sounds/ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCRql... https://soundcloud.com/mskd_sounds 🎵 DeliFB: https://www.youtube.com/c/DeliFB https://soundcloud.com/delifb https://www.instagram.com/cativo.kevin/ https://twitter.com/DeliciousFB About Us From one Emily in Paris to another... just speaking French isn't enough to understand the intricacies of the locals, but it's definitely a good place to start.

Je ne sais quoi is a phrase American women love to use to describe their French counterparts, but according to Debra Ollivier, best-selling author of What French Women Know About Love, Sex, and Other Matters of the Heart and Mind, the French don't use it at all.

In French, à la mode has got nothing to do with ice cream. Rather, it refers to one of the pinnacles of art de vivre: fashion.

| 14 Apr 2024 | Ep 70 -Navigating “Brûlée” with Marie DeGross | 00:34:05 | |
When we hear the word "brûlée" in English, we're likely thinking about the sweet, shattery topping of a classic French dessert. But when Notre Dame suddenly caught fire in 2019, a whole other meaning of this word came into focus. Marie DeGross is a tour guide specialized as much in pastry as she is in the history of the military and first responders in France. She's here to explore what makes the Paris Fire Brigade stand out on a national – and international – stage. https://www.instagram.com/millemercismarie/ https://www.primevideo.com/detail/Notre-Dame-br%C3%BBle/0HYVXHHF99PUTAEBCSTHOMOU8O Join us on Patreon: patreon.com/parisundergroundradio Find Us Online Website: https://www.parisundergroundradio.com/navigatingthefrench Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/parisundergroundradio Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/parisundergroundradio/ Credits Host: Emily Monaco. @Emily_in_France; Website: http://www.tomatokumato.com and http://www.emilymmonaco.com Producer: Jennifer Geraghty. @jennyphoria; Website: http://jennyphoria.com Music Credits Édith Piaf - La Vie en Rose (DeliFB Lofi Remix) 🎵 MSKD Sounds: https://www.instagram.com/mskd_sounds/ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCRql... https://soundcloud.com/mskd_sounds 🎵 DeliFB: https://www.youtube.com/c/DeliFB https://soundcloud.com/delifb https://www.instagram.com/cativo.kevin/ https://twitter.com/DeliciousFB About Us From one Emily in Paris to another... just speaking French isn't enough to understand the intricacies of the locals, but it's definitely a good place to start.

| 21 Apr 2024 | Ep 71 -Navigating “Populaire” with Debra Ollivier | 00:31:49 | |
If you grew up worrying the world was a popularity contest, get yourself to France, where the word populaire is better translated as "working class" or literally, "of the people." Without an apt translation for "popular," French society governs itself by different principles, which author Debra Ollivier is more than ready to unpack. https://www.amazon.com/What-French-Women-Know-Matters/dp/042523648X Join us on Patreon: patreon.com/parisundergroundradio Find Us Online Website: https://www.parisundergroundradio.com/navigatingthefrench Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/parisundergroundradio Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/parisundergroundradio/ Credits Host: Emily Monaco. @Emily_in_France; Website: http://www.tomatokumato.com and http://www.emilymmonaco.com Producer: Jennifer Geraghty. @jennyphoria; Website: http://jennyphoria.com Music Credits Édith Piaf - La Vie en Rose (DeliFB Lofi Remix) 🎵 MSKD Sounds: https://www.instagram.com/mskd_sounds/ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCRql... https://soundcloud.com/mskd_sounds 🎵 DeliFB: https://www.youtube.com/c/DeliFB https://soundcloud.com/delifb https://www.instagram.com/cativo.kevin/ https://twitter.com/DeliciousFB About Us From one Emily in Paris to another... just speaking French isn't enough to understand the intricacies of the locals, but it's definitely a good place to start.

| 24 Nov 2024 | Ep 82 - Navigating “Paysan” with Sophie Duncan | 00:28:37 | |
The word "peasant" in English may bring to mind blouses, skirts, or Monty Python sketches, but paysan culture is alive and well, as author Sophie Duncan is here to explore. https://www.amazon.fr/Beyond-Paris-insiders-guide-France/dp/1910779032 https://chateausurvivor.medium.com/ Additional thoughts from Sophie: "Gabrielle Chevalier's novel Clochemerle, published in 1934 is a good snapshot of the values and divisions of small country village life then. It was a spoof and made fun of the village rivalries and pretensions. Those types definitely still exist today. A great deal more light hearted than Jean de Florette. The school teacher, liberal. The ex retired military type tends to be more conservative, siding with the priest and his posse. The village priest has all but disappeared from our village life altogether now. In the Aude, a single priest will be responsible for 10 or more parishes, visiting only when invited for funerals and baptisms. The local struggle to control the water still goes on. Having been involved in renovating the Chateau, something I noticed change was on an aesthetic level of taste. The paysan life, idealised as far back as Mariantoinette, valued hand crafted items produced skillfully and at no cost, artisanal,l natural gathered from woodland and field. An escape from modern excess. It values a sense of simplicity, a commitment to minimal waste, and a homely, handcrafted aesthetic. Even high-powered professionals find themselves longing for the uncomplicated quality of paysan life. Nowadays land gets sold and farmers need a loan, and a concrete bungalow pays the tractor loan and makes more sense than cultivating firewood or selling mushrooms at the market. My favourite villager one assorted me that back where I came from the ‘paysans’ there would also know the power of the phases of the moon in all matters. If he were alive now I think he would be amazed by how lunar cycles have been jetisoned. Even though that type of country life is still way more robust than it is in England the aesthetic has changed too. For example in our village there was a grove of wild pomegranates, a rare strain that ripened these wonders until christmas. People would come from far and wide to the village to admire them, and the view. A mayor came to power, not from the village who had them bulldozed, then got a grant to build a wall in the Toulouse Hospital car park aesthetic. Although hearts bled there is a reflex that getting a grant for anything is a wonderful thing. But maybe that is more of a continuation of the way things are going. The impression believing they can have something for nothing is defin timely an achilles heel. Another mayor in another village is busily bringing back the fruit trees. Overall though the shift to the uniform, predictable and lower skilled way of life. Not so long ago locals once set on a career could stick to it to the end but now the jobs end and they wish to learn something new they need to leave the countryside. The real paysan sensibility and skills are more and more a rarity and knowing the rules of grants and loans is more important than the phases of the moon and the wisdom of good husbandry" Join us on Patreon: patreon.com/parisundergroundradio Find Us Online Website: https://www.parisundergroundradio.com/navigatingthefrench Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/parisundergroundradio Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/parisundergroundradio/ Credits Host: Emily Monaco. @Emily_in_France; Website: http://www.tomatokumato.com and http://www.emilymmonaco.com Producer: Jennifer Geraghty. @jennyphoria; Website: http://jennyphoria.com Music Credits Édith Piaf - La Vie en Rose (DeliFB Lofi Remix) 🎵 MSKD Sounds: https://www.instagram.com/mskd_sounds/ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCRql... https://soundcloud.com/mskd_sounds 🎵 DeliFB: https://www.youtube.com/c/DeliFB https://soundcloud.com/delifb https://www.instagram.com/cativo.kevin/ https://twitter.com/DeliciousFB About Us From one Emily in Paris to another... just speaking French isn't enough to understand the intricacies of the locals, but it's definitely a good place to start.

| 01 Dec 2024 | Ep 83 - Navigating “Le Grand Paris” with Simon Kuper | 00:34:23 | |
Paris may no longer be home to medieval fortification walls, but that doesn't stop locals talking about Paris intra and extra muros. The wall, in this case, is the périphérique ring road, which has long been a stopper between the city and its suburbs. But a great plan for expanding Paris – and its métro system – outside of these walls into le grand Paris is changing lives, and the very culture of Paris. To explore how and why, Emily is joined by Simon Kuper, a Financial Times journalist and author of Impossible City. https://bookshop.org/p/books/impossible-city-paris-in-the-twenty-first-century-simon-kuper/20664638 Join us on Patreon: patreon.com/parisundergroundradio Find Us Online Website: https://www.parisundergroundradio.com/navigatingthefrench Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/parisundergroundradio Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/parisundergroundradio/ Credits Host: Emily Monaco. @Emily_in_France; Website: http://www.tomatokumato.com and http://www.emilymmonaco.com Producer: Jennifer Geraghty. @jennyphoria; Website: http://jennyphoria.com Music Credits Édith Piaf - La Vie en Rose (DeliFB Lofi Remix) 🎵 MSKD Sounds: https://www.instagram.com/mskd_sounds/ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCRql... https://soundcloud.com/mskd_sounds 🎵 DeliFB: https://www.youtube.com/c/DeliFB https://soundcloud.com/delifb https://www.instagram.com/cativo.kevin/ https://twitter.com/DeliciousFB About Us From one Emily in Paris to another... just speaking French isn't enough to understand the intricacies of the locals, but it's definitely a good place to start.

| 08 Dec 2024 | Ep 84 - Navigating “Champêtre” with Kate Hill | 00:33:43 | |
The image of the French countryside is quite different from the reality, as Kate Hill, the American expat founder of the Relais de Camont Writers and Artists Residency, well knows. She’s spent the past few decades restoring and living in a 300-year-old French farmhouse, so she’s the perfect person to help distinguish the dream and the reality of French country living as we navigate champêtre.
