In 1428, a young girl from the village of Domrémy, France, audaciously set out to meet the heir apparent to the French throne, the Dauphin, and told him what he had to do to defeat the English occupying her country.  She claimed that she was told what to do by God.  Against all odds, the Dauphin took her advice, and it worked. After a series of military victories, the Dauphin was crowned king, and the young girl went on to become one of the greatest heroes in French history.  Learn more about Joan of Arc, her incredible story, and how it changed French history on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

01:02:26 – Nixon Ends the Gold Standard: A Controlled Demolition of the DollarMarking the anniversary of August 15, 1971, the host recounts how Nixon severed the dollar's tie to gold, ending the Bretton Woods system. He details the lead-up, including the removal of silver from U.S. coinage, France's gold repatriation under De Gaulle, and the resulting shift from a stable bi-metallic economy to a fiat system fueling inflation, de-industrialization, and wealth transfer. 01:17:13 – De-Industrialization, Debt Expansion, and the Rise of Crony CapitalismExplains how taking the dollar off gold dovetailed with free trade policies and the 1973 formation of the Trilateral Commission. America's manufacturing base was hollowed out, trade surpluses ended, and debt skyrocketed from $371 billion in 1971 to $37 trillion today. The conversation ties this to corporate consolidation, zombie companies kept alive by central bank policy, and a rigged system benefiting elites. 01:22:33 – The Petrodollar's Decline and Global De-DollarizationReviews the 1970s Kissinger-brokered petrodollar agreement with Saudi Arabia, its quiet disappearance last year, and the shift toward multi-currency oil sales. Discusses BRICS expansion, the ruble's rebound after being gold-linked in 2022, and the dollar's shrinking share of global trade from 53% to the low 40s. Notes that central banks are hoarding gold over their own currencies. 01:44:06 – National Security State Origins and the Truman LegacyReads and comments on a Lou Rockwell article tracing the 1947 creation of the CIA, NSA, and the modern national security state. Argues that Truman's policies institutionalized interventionism, subverted the republic's founding principles, and laid the groundwork for perpetual war and surveillance. Links these shifts to Israel's 1948 recognition, Cold War militarization, and the influx of Nazi scientists under Operation Paperclip. 01:52:06 – The 80-Year Cycle, Operation Paperclip, and Cultural TransformationReflects on how the summer of 1947 reshaped U.S. governance through security agencies, covert power structures, and foreign entanglements. Notes the cultural influence of imported Nazi scientists, with Wernher von Braun as a public face, and draws connections to Cold War propaganda and the militarization of space. 02:00:58 – JFK's Secret Societies SpeechReading and analysis of JFK's 1961 warning about “secret societies” and “monolithic conspiracies,” framing it as timeless advice against government secrecy and press complicity. 02:07:44 – Operation Paperclip & Nazi InfluenceReview of how former Nazi scientists were integrated into U.S. programs after WWII, influencing aerospace, weapons development, and Cold War strategy, with Wernher von Braun as a central figure. 02:15:39 – CIA & MKUltra OriginsExposes early CIA abuses, including the MKUltra mind-control program, as part of a broader national security state agenda to manipulate populations and undermine dissent. 02:47:09 – Trump, Tariffs, and Trade RisksCritiques Trump's tariff strategy as potentially damaging to consumers and allies, warning it could backfire by pushing more nations toward BRICS-style trade blocs. 03:07:17 – NASA Moon Base Plans & Apollo SkepticismNASA's push for a 100-kilowatt lunar reactor sparks analysis of the Artemis program, U.S.–China competition, and a deeper dive into why America hasn't returned to the moon in decades, despite having done so multiple times in the past. 03:33:56 – Space Race & Global Power ShiftReflection on how space exploration intersects with geopolitical changeovers, comparing today's “fourth turning” to post-WWII institution building, and speculating on the existence of a secret space program. 03:45:54 – Red Heifer Prophecy & Third TempleMr. Anderson connects current events in Israel to biblical prophecy, questioning modern evangelical support for temple reconstruction and warning about theological and political implications. 03:50:56 – Decline of Religious ActivismCritique of modern Christian leadership for failing to visibly oppose cultural trends such as the transgender movement, contrasting this with past Catholic and evangelical activism. 03:58:52 – Gold Standard Anniversary & Fiat Currency WarningMarking the anniversary of Nixon taking the U.S. off the gold standard, the host warns about the destructive effects of fiat currency and urges listeners to consider precious metals.

Je n'ai pas échappé à la vague et j'ai adoré m'intéresser à lui.  Un jour, quand vous vous promènerez dans le quartier Latin, vous passerez peut-être devant la grille du Collège de France et vous apercevrez la statue dont je parle dans cet épisode.  www.onethinginafrenchday.com

La première partie de l'émission d'aujourd'hui sera consacrée à l'actualité. Nous commencerons par évoquer une rencontre très attendue entre les présidents russe et américain. La réunion aura lieu demain en Alaska, mais elle fait déjà beaucoup parler. Trump va-t-il se laisser manipuler par Poutine… une fois de plus ? Prend-il le risque de devenir un Neville Chamberlain face à un Poutine version Hitler ? Ensuite, direction le Moyen-Orient. À ce jour, 147 pays reconnaissent l'État de Palestine. Et pourtant, cette reconnaissance arrive bien trop tard, et reste largement insuffisante. Dans notre section science et technologie, nous évoquerons une étude alarmante sur le nombre croissant d'articles scientifiques frauduleux. Et pour conclure cette première partie de l'émission, nous analyserons une récente enquête de Gallup qui révèle une tendance mondiale encourageante : le bien-être est en hausse. Jamais autant de personnes ne se sont senties aussi épanouies dans leur vie. Sur 142 pays, la part de ceux qui se disent épanouis n'a cessé de croître ces dix dernières années, tandis que celle des personnes en souffrance est tombée à seulement 7 %.    Le reste de l'émission d'aujourd'hui sera consacré à la langue et à la culture françaises. La leçon de grammaire portera sur The imperfect tense - the verbs of the first group. Cette semaine nous parlerons du petit village de Coulonces en Normandie qui reçoit périodiquement une visite insolite : un chevalier en armure y apparaît et disparaît depuis deux ans. Nous terminerons avec l'expression Avoir le bras long. Elle nous permettra d'évoquer une page intéressante de l'histoire de France avec le destin contrarié de Nicolas Fouquet, le surintendant des Finances de Louis XIV. - Les relations entre Trump et Poutine : un remake du pacte Chamberlain/Hitler ? - Les intentions récentes de reconnaître la Palestine sont jugées insuffisantes - Une étude alerte sur le nombre énorme de fausses publications scientifiques - Le bien-être au niveau mondial est en hausse, sauf dans les pays occidentaux les plus riches - Un petit village de Normandie reçoit de nouveau la visite d'un chevalier en armure - L'histoire de Nicolas Fouquet, le ministre des Finances de Louis XIV

France: Heat wave. Simon Constable

Episode 435 is the eighth episode in the Hundred Year Pivot podcast series. In it, Demetri Kofinas and Grant Williams speak with leading realist scholar Jonathan Kirshner about how eroding cultural norms, weakened political guardrails, deepening polarization, and the collapse of shared narratives and belief structures are leading to a break-down in the American-led order, paving the way for a new moneyed elite to seize power in Washington. Their discussion begins with a deep dive into the realist tradition: its origins, how it differs from other ideological schools, its various interpretations, and why classical realists grant primacy to uncertainty and the inherently unpredictable nature of world events. They explore what it means for states to define and pursue their national interests at a time when the American-led world order is fragmenting and deep domestic polarization is weakening the institutional checks and balances that once constrained presidential power. Jonathan also educates the audience on the parallels between the United States today and France in the 1930s—politically fractured, inwardly focused, and increasingly unable to act with purpose on the world stage—and why Kirshner believes the situation may now be closer to France in the 1940s, marked by a willingness to collaborate with the occupying forces of a new plutocracy. Grant, Demetri, and Jonathan also grapple with how the politics of scapegoating, the collapse of shared narratives, and the deliberate erosion of truth claims are undermining the foundations of participatory democracy. Jonathan explains how this epistemic breakdown accelerates America's imperial collapse, undermining its political influence abroad, weakening its alliances, and threatening the long-term stability of the dollar-based global financial system.

In 2013, Jakarta's governor moved to outlaw the use of dancing monkeys on the city's streets.The Indonesian tradition saw macaques made to perform for passers-by - often restrained by chains and dressed in plastic masks.

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. Editor David Horovitz joins host Amanda Borschel-Dan for today's episode. Hamas negotiators arrived in Egypt this week for talks aimed at getting moribund ceasefire and hostage release negotiations back on track, with Israel having reportedly sent a team to Doha. Horovitz updates us on the status of negotiations. IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Eyal Zamir yesterday approved the general outline for the military’s upcoming major offensive to conquer Gaza City. This comes after a highly charged conflict with Defense Minister Israel Katz earlier this week. Horovitz takes us through this unusual public spat and what we know so far about the plan to take Gaza City. Yesterday, Spain signaled support for French President Emmanuel Macron’s proposal of an international coalition under a United Nations mandate to stabilize Gaza -- including deploying the controversial UNRWA agency -- calling it “one of the tools” that could bring peace to the region. Horovitz briefly comments. Even as much of the western world is pushing for a two-state solution, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu agreed in a rare Hebrew-language interview that he felt a connection to the vision of “Greater Israel.” We learn more about the bizarre interaction during an i24 interview, which has spurred international condemnation. Horovitz sat down with US Ambassador Mike Huckabee this week for an in-depth interview. Horovitz brings highlights, including Huckabee's stalwart support and the Baptist minister's impressions of how Gazans see the US and the IDF. The CEO of the Toronto International Film Festival said overnight that he is working to get "The Road Between Us: The Ultimate Rescue," a documentary about the October 7 massacre, back on the big screen, apologizing after the movie was pulled from the festival schedule, which sparked a large outcry. Horovitz describes the surreal request by the festival's organizers to obtain permission for use of the Hamas October 7 footage. Check out The Times of Israel's ongoing liveblog for more updates.

Durant l'été, je vous propose une sélection des meilleurs épisodes de Vlan sur la dernière saison. L'occasion de découvrir ou redécouvrir des épisodes qui ont énormément plu. Grégoire Gibault est le masseur-kinésithérapeute le plus célèbre de France depuis qu'il s'est lancé sur Instagram sous le pseudo Major Mouvement. Il cumule près d'1 million de followers et à écrit plusieurs ouvrages dont le dernier "8 piliers pour rester jeune le plus longtemps possible". Avec son dernier livre, il propose une approche réaliste du bien-être, nous invitant à nous libérer de la pression de la perfection pour profiter d'une vie plus sereine. Dans cet épisode, nous avons discuté ensemble de l'importance de bouger, de bien manger, et de bien dormir – trois piliers fondamentaux de la santé – tout en explorant pourquoi il est si difficile de les intégrer de manière durable dans notre quotidien.J'ai questionné Grégoire sur son parcours et sa vision de la vie. Il nous parle de ses débuts sur Instagram, motivé par le besoin de transmettre des connaissances en santé accessibles à tous. Il partage comment il a su se démarquer en créant du contenu simple et utile, et pourquoi il est resté attaché à sa pratique de kiné malgré son succès sur les réseaux. Nous avons aussi abordé des sujets complexes, comme la douleur chronique, que Grégoire aborde avec une vision transversale : entre le physique, le mental et le mode de vie. Il explique comment le stress peut être un allié si l'on apprend à le gérer, et l'importance de l'auto-évaluation pour mieux vivre avec son corps et ses limites.Au cours de cette conversation, Grégoire nous invite à une réflexion plus large sur la santé mentale et physique, en partageant des exemples concrets et des anecdotes inspirantes. Nous avons également abordé le rôle des réseaux sociaux dans la création de standards de beauté irréalistes et culpabilisants, et comment s'en libérer pour se reconnecter à l'essentiel.Cet échange est une vraie bouffée d'oxygène pour ceux qui cherchent à ralentir, à se défaire des injonctions de performance, et à adopter une approche plus bienveillante envers eux-mêmes. Un épisode qui, je l'espère, vous donnera envie de prendre soin de vous, de manière durable et équilibrée.Les questions que l'on se pose : Qu'est-ce qui t'a poussé à devenir kinésithérapeute et à te lancer sur Instagram ?Comment expliques-tu le succès que tu as rencontré en ligne ?Comment définis-tu le succès et comment cette définition a-t-elle évolué pour toi ?Quelle est ta vision de l'équilibre entre bien vivre et bien-être ?Comment le mental influence-t-il notre perception de la douleur ?Quels conseils donnerais-tu pour commencer à prendre soin de son corps au quotidien ?Comment répondre aux attentes irréalistes que les réseaux sociaux créent autour du bien-être ?Quelles sont les actions simples qui peuvent avoir un grand impact sur la santé à long terme ?Pourquoi est-il important de bouger tous les jours, et comment encourager les gens à le faire ?Quels sont les facteurs qui influencent les douleurs chroniques et comment les combattre ?Timelaps :00:00 - Introduction de Grégoire Pouy et présentation de Major Mouvement01:35 - Major Mouvement raconte son parcours et son succès sur Instagram04:14 - La différence entre bien vivre et bien-être09:59 - Importance de l'auto-évaluation de soi et de la perception du corps13:25 - Discussion sur la connexion entre réseaux sociaux et santé mentale19:00 - La simplicité de la vie dans des moments difficiles, l'importance du sport24:27 - L'impact des réseaux sociaux sur l'estime de soi et le bien-être33:22 - Comment intégrer des habitudes saines dans son quotidien40:41 - Les causes des douleurs chroniques et leur gestion51:03 - Importance du stress bien géré pour le développement personnel Suggestion d'autres épisodes à écouter : Vlan #135 Se reconnecter à l'intelligence du corps avec Eve Berger Grosjean (https://audmns.com/ETKQSfx) #257 Se réapproprier ses émotions à travers le corps avec Bolewa Sabourin (https://audmns.com/hNQWsty) #317 Les secrets pour améliorer son efficacité et maximiser son bien être avec Jeremy Coron (partie 1) (https://audmns.com/dBFvKlG)Hébergé par Audiomeans.

Nineteenth-century Americans regarded Paris as a libertine paradise: a smorgasbord of food and fashion, of night life and sex. Today, the pull toward France endures, though the precise nature of its appeal has shifted. On the second in a series of Critics at Large interview episodes, Alexandra Schwartz talks with the staff writer Lauren Collins about her work as The New Yorker's woman on the ground in France and the long lineage of Francophilic Americans—from Edith Wharton to James Baldwin and, yes, even “Emily.” The two consider how French femininity has been marketed to American women and how modern influencers transmit an incomplete picture of Paris. “Yes, it's romantic, and, yes, it's picturesque, but it's also a big, loud, dirty, profane, complicated city that evolves and changes like everywhere else,” Collins says. “There's a lot of misbegotten essentializing that happens when Americans start talking about France.”Read, watch, and listen with the critics:“Ces restaurants qui gonflent l'addition des touristes américains,” by Mathieu Hennequin (Le Parisien)“Can Emmanuel Macron Stem the Populist Tide?,” by Lauren Collins (The New Yorker)“The Unlikely Rise of French Tacos,” by Lauren Collins (The New Yorker)“Dearest Edith,” by Janet Flanner (The New Yorker)“The Custom of the Country,” by Edith Wharton“Go Tell It on the Mountain,” by James Baldwin“Giovanni's Room,” by James Baldwin“The Discovery of What It Means to Be an American,” by James Baldwin (The New York Times)“Emily in Paris” (2020–)“Sex and the City” (1998–2004)“French Women Don't Get Fat,” by Mireille Guiliano“Bringing Up Bébé,” by Pamela DruckermanNew episodes drop every Thursday.

Hey retreat boss—it's time for a heart-to-heart. In this solo episode, Shannon Jamail gets real about a truth that most retreat leaders avoid:

Is Israel risking overplaying its hand in Gaza and the Middle East, and, as European countries like France and Britain move to recognize Palestine, what are the broader ramifications for the region?

A decades-long manhunt closed in on international terrorist Illich Ramirez Sanchez, aka Carlos the Jackal, on 14th August, 1994 - when he was sedated and kidnapped by French intelligence agents in Khartoum, Sudan, following a tip-off by the CIA. Affiliated with the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine, the Organization for Armed Arab Struggle, and the Japanese Red Army, the Venezuelan militant had been responsible for a slew of major terrorist attacks in the 1970s and 80s, notably the storming of an OPEC meeting in 1975, during which he took hostages and demanded ransoms, and was widely considered the world's most-wanted man.  In this episode, Arion, Rebecca and Olly explain how ‘Carlos' came to acquire not just one, but two nicknames; consider how the politics of the day enabled both his terrorism and his womanising; and reveal why his sperm count ultimately cost him his freedom… Further Reading: • ‘SUDAN SEIZES TERRORIST 'CARLOS THE JACKAL'' (The Washington Post, 1994): https://www.washingtonpost.com/archive/politics/1994/08/16/sudan-seizes-terrorist-carlos-the-jackal/4e8d3daa-b064-4ca7-ba16-e6f0d68744aa/?itid=sr_2 • ‘Carlos the Jackal: The Extraordinary Life of the Most Notorious Terrorist Before Bin Laden' (Vice, 2022): https://www.vice.com/en/article/4awdbq/carlos-the-jackal-communist-terrorist • ‘'Carlos the Jackal' convicted in France' (AlJazeera English, 2011): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g2sUuxYcdro This episode first aired in 2023 Love the show?

Mali : vague d'arrestations au sein de l'armée  Plusieurs militaires et généraux de l'armée malienne ont été arrêtés et accusés de vouloir déstabiliser la transition menée par la junte.

Avec Antoine Grognet, journaliste au service des sports de RFI.     Cameroun : Paris reconnait sa responsabilité dans une « guerre »  Emmanuel Macron a officiellement reconnu que la France avait mené une guerre au Cameroun pendant la période coloniale.

« Dis-moi à quel jeu tu joues, je te dirai qui tu es », est une série spéciale de RFI à la découverte des jeux populaires à travers le monde. Ces jeux qui, à travers les joueurs, parlent de la culture et de l'identité de chaque pays. Aujourd'hui, direction la France et plus précisément Lyon, où l'association des Béninois du Rhône-Alpes organise une après-midi de jeu autour de l'awalé. Ce jeu de semailles est le jeu de société africain le plus répandu, de l'est à l'ouest du continent et jusqu'aux Antilles. Entre transmission et nostalgie, pour la diaspora africaine, l'awalé fait le lien entre l'enfance au pays et la vie en France. Reportage à Lyon de Welly Diallo. Assis face à son adversaire, Julio se concentre. D'une main, il saisit quelques graines qu'il dissémine le long du plateau : « J'ai grandi avec mes grands-parents au pays donc je connaissais déjà l'awalé. » Julio maîtrise le jeu, mais ça ne veut pas dire qu'il gagne chaque fois. « J'ai joué avec quelqu'un de beaucoup plus expérimenté que moi donc euh... Non ! », s'amuse-t-il. Le jeune Béninois n'avait presque aucune chance face à Bienvenue Kenke, le trésorier de l'association des Béninois de Rhône-Alpes, pour qui ces rencontres autour des jeux oscillent entre transmission et nostalgie. « Ça permet aussi à ceux qui sont à Lyon de rester dans le mood des anciens jeux malgré leur âge adulte pour transmettre à leur descendance, explique Bienvenue Kenke. Comme on s'est retrouvé ici, on s'est dit : sortons notre awalé pour que ceux qui sont venus il y a longtemps soient toujours dans le mood de l'ancien temps. » Sur la table d'à côté, Odette la doyenne, retrouve ce « mood de l'ancien temps », cette ambiance, cette excitation d'autrefois. Depuis son arrivée, elle enchaîne les victoires et explique les bases du jeu aux nouveaux-venus. Aujourd'hui, l'awalé se joue dans presque tous les pays d'Afrique subsaharienne. À l'origine, le jeu a émergé entre le XIIIe et le XIVe siècle au Ghana. Puis, la traite négrière va contribuer à son expansion aussi bien en Afrique qu'aux Antilles. L'historien Joseph Salumu Kamangu est le président de l'association africaine des jeux et sports traditionnels : « À l'époque, à chaque déportation par la traite négrière, ces gens-là emmenaient l'awalé avec eux. Aujourd'hui, le gouvernement ghanéen, en collaboration avec l'Unesco, a pu ramener ce jeu, le moderniser un peu en intégrant ce programme dans des écoles et des centres culturels, et aujourd'hui, ça a pris quand même une diffusion internationale. » À lire aussi«Dis-moi à quel jeu tu joues» à Madagascar: le fanorona D'où sa place centrale au sein des diasporas africaines. L'awalé, que l'on appelle aussi l'adji ou owaré, est présent dans les ateliers et séances de jeux, et même jusqu'au festival Yardland de hip-hop, dancehall et R'n'B, qui a eu lieu à Paris début juillet, à l'hippodrome de Vincennes. Dans son stand, Ngoufo Gangnimaze, président du Club Awalé, a proposé aux festivaliers de découvrir le jeu. « Il y a beaucoup d'enthousiasme parce que l'awalé, c'est le jeu le plus connu en France. Les gens viennent très naturellement parce qu'il y a un capital sympathie fort. Et nous, tout ce qu'on a à faire, c'est intervenir dans des festivals, des foires des fêtes de jeux pour faire connaître l'awalé et les jeux africains », raconte Ngoufo Gangnimaze. Faire découvrir le jeu, mais à condition qu'il reste africain, surtout dans sa fabrication : « C'est les Chinois qui ont pour l'instant le monopole de cette fabrication-là. Ils les vendent essentiellement dans les centres commerciaux, grandes surfaces et boutiques en ligne, commente Ngoufo Gangnimaze. Il faut s'investir dans cette industrie, les Africains doivent prendre l'espace, investir dans la fabrication du jeu, faire du lobbying en fait ! Moi, j'ai déjà rencontré des ergothérapeutes qui utilisaient l'awalé pour exercer leurs patients dans tout ce qui est la psychomotricité finee. » Outil pour soigner, pour éduquer, pour se souvenir d'où on vient... L'awalé est ce trait d'union avec le continent pour la diaspora africaine en France. À lire aussi«Dis-moi à quel jeu tu joues» en Argentine: le truco

À l'occasion de la journée mondiale des maladies rares, nous faisons un point sur ces maladies qui touchent une personne sur vingt en France. Une maladie est dite « rare », lorsqu'elle touche moins d'une personne sur 2 000, soit pour un pays comme la France : moins de 30 000 personnes. On dénombre près de 7 000 maladies rares et 80% d'entre elles ont une origine génétique. Parmi elles, il existe les maladies rares de la peau qui n'ont pas de traitement permettant une guérison définitive. (Rediffusion) Quelles sont les maladies rares de la peau ?

In this week's show, I cover Pinot Blanc as part of the grape miniseries.   Pinot Blanc is a white color mutation of Pinot Noir, native to Burgundy/Bourgogne. It creates refreshing light- to medium-bodied wines that run the gamut from simple sippers to much more complex, oak-aged versions, to excellent sweet and sparkling wines. Photo: Pinot Blanc.  Credit: Wines of Austria   This lovely grape is often described as a “workhorse” and not treated with much reverence, partially because it is often seen as inferior to its cousin Chardonnay. But a handful of producers these days are showing that Pinot Blanc can be a lot more than a light sipper. When grown on the right sites and treated well, this grape can create beautiful, complex wines. With its high acidity and medium sugars, it is also extremely versatile -- making great still, sparkling, dry, or sweet wines.   In the show, as I always do with the grape miniseries, I cover the history of the grape, how it behaves in the vineyard, the aroma and flavors and how it changes with winemaking. I end with where it is grown and food pairing ideas.   This show has a lot of producer names in it because I know that it is hard to find good versions of Pinot Blanc, so I'm trying to steer you in the right direction.   Full show notes with producer names and all back episodes are on Patreon. Become a member today!   www.patreon.com/winefornormalpeople _______________________________________________________________   Check out my exclusive sponsor, Wine Access.  They have an amazing selection -- once you get hooked on their wines, they will be your go-to!

The journey of learning anything new, putting in the hours, the practice, and progressing in a controlled environment eventually must make its way into the real-world to ensure any confidence we have gained is sound. Over the past three years, as many TSLL riders and listeners of the podcast know, I enrolled in French language classes (12 in total) with Washington D.C.'s Alliance de Français through their online classes. Completing through FR 204 (B 1.3) in February of this year, I had met my goal and set about heading to France in March, not having been there since 2022 when upon returning home I enrolled in these classes. As a way to keep me focused, inspired and determined, I told myself to complete all 100 and 200 level classes before I could return. My learning journey was shared in a 9-part series consisting of podcast episodes and blog posts, and you can view all of them here. Those posts/episodes include detailed grammar and vocabulary lessons and really step into the language learning process. Today's episode is less concrete French language conversation and more about the experience of being in France having the language more comfortably accessible in my cognitive toolbox. Whether you are in the middle of your French language journey, just beginning or well-advanced along the road of proficiency, may today's episode convey reassurance that your investment of time and money will be worth your efforts in more ways than you might imagine possible. Let's take a look at how the two week trip unfolded with the French language in use. View the detailed Show Notes for episode #408 here - https://thesimplyluxuriouslife.com/podcast408

In 2003, archaeologists on the island of Flores, in Indonesia, discovered the skeleton of a new species of human - Homo floresiensis.It was nicknamed the 'Hobbit', because they were just over a metre in height, and it's thought they became extinct around 70,000 years ago.
