So glad that this pod continues to updatr

Excellent for short and sweet basic listening practice

I read French pretty well but I struggle to follow the spoken language.

This podcast is perfect for quick, bite-sized pieces of practice in listening. It’s just one or two sentences. At first sometimes I can understand it, sometimes I can’t. But the he walks through the sentence one word at a time, and by the end it’s clear as a bell.
