Michael in ArizonaStill valuable informationI discovered the podcast this weekend. I’ve been binge listening to it for two days. It’s now 2025 and Frederic started his podcast in 2014. Ten years later it’s still great, very useful, very informative, awesome insights into French culture. If you’re thinking about visiting France I think you will love it. If you want to know more about French people, I think you will love it. If you want some insights in the French language I think you will love it. Thank you, Frederic!

sakraoSex in FranceI am a first time listener. Initially I was quite shocked by his frank discussion, but was drawn in at the same time, and he discusses everything so freely and naturally that it seemed completely normal. His contrast with the American culture was spot on.

Larissa LocateliGreat podcastIt’s great the way he explains about the culture of France. The way he tries his best not to be bias in order to show the bigger picture is great. I love it 🥰

NortkaThank youI like this podcast because Frederic provides colloquial French expressions not just the stuff you get from text books. Merci beaucoup!

PjricherA dose of French learning in bite-sized piecesI look forward to every podcast by Frederic. He covers a variety of topics with insight and a little humor. Nothing like getting a taste of French language, culture, and street smarts first hand!

AHMGoreExcellent, witty and entertaining podcastThis is by far the best podcast for those who want to understand French culture as well as learn the language. Frederic’s podcasts are witty, engaging and most important, based on real life. No more ‘ou est le bibliothèque?´ that I studied at school, but have never once used. I listen to these podcasts a lot and never get bored. Always learn something new as they cover topics that are not "the usual". Subjects that you would likely not want to broach in a class setting or even privately with your French teacher 😉 Merci beaucoup Frederic!

Lili_LiseDelightful French podcastFrederic is a wonderful teacher. His podcasts are relaxed and feel as if you are having a conversation with a very good friend. He is funny, insightful and always a delight to listen to as you learn new things about French culture and language. He covers things that others don't and that makes it so much more meaningful. Each podcast includes new words and gives you enthusiasm to keep learning French. Give it a listen, you will definitely say, 'Merci Frederic!'

MMMitchell9000Très mignon!Bibard has a sweet and down-to-earth outlook which is very refreshing, especially if you have ever suffered a snob of a professor. I feel like I can trust his options and interpretations of culture and history. I was initially drawn to this podcast because I have a terrible time pronouncing French and his accent in English helps me interpret the “mouth” of the language. I do wish the vocabulary section was a bit slower.

Esther FriedrichThe Funnest Way to Learn FrenchFrederic's podcast as well as his website are both great ways for French learners and fans of France to learn the language and the culture of France. He covers a wide range of subjects, including French vocabulary, grammar, pronunciation, fun phrases, and cultural questions about France. I would highly recommend Talk in French to everyone.

MmelaprofPodcast 16These are great! There’s a variety of information presented in a very casual, friendly manner. I speak French already, but I enjoy the reminders about faux amis and some of the vocabulary. The cultural information is interesting and current.

Superblonde570GreatThese are great podcasts. A little bit of everything from an everyday, casual french perspective—culture, vocabulary and phrases. I especially enjoy the phrases because they are not always direct translation from English.
