Podcasts about parisians

It hasn't been a Good Week for the climate since, er, 1820-something? And it wasn't last week, either. But it is a good week for The Europeans, because we're joined by Luisa Neubauer, one of Germany's best-known climate activists. Luisa recently wrote a terrific piece for The Economist about Europe's climate “vibe shift”. We got her insights on what has caused the greenlash and what we ought to be doing about it. It's a thoughtful, self-reflective, heartening conversation we think you'll enjoy.    We're also talking about Brussels' proposed “military Schengen” agreement, which would allow EU member states to move troops and equipment across borders relatively swiftly. (You don't want to know how sluggish things are now.) And we're taking a look at Slovenia's troubling new “Šutar Law”, a security bill that is widely understood to target the Roma minority.   In other news… The Europeans are launching a newsletter! If you want to hear more about what happened in Europe over the past week and find out what we left on the podcast-cutting-room floor, subscribe to GOOD WEEK BAD WEEK over on Substack. New issues hit inboxes on Friday mornings.   And someone else has a new newsletter, too. Our very own Katy Lee has just published the first issue of Millefeuille, an English-language newsletter “for Parisians who are bad at local news”. If you fall in the middle of the Europeans podcast–Francophile Venn diagram, subscribe here.   This week's Inspiration Station recommendations are two newly resurfaced works by Johann Sebastian Bach (here and here) and Carlo Rovelli's book about the physics of time, The Order of Time.  And if you, too, are in the market for a novella to help you knock out your 2025 reading goals, Dominic likes Claire Keegan's Small Things Like These.    Other resources for this episode:   “The surreal 45-day trek at the heart of Nato's defence” - Financial Times, 17 November, 2025  “Commission moves towards ‘Military Schengen' and transformation of defence industry” - European Commission press release, 19 November, 2025  “Why you probably should not re-gauge railways in Europe” - Jon Worth, 30 September, 2025 “Slovenia's ‘Šutar Law' Sets a Dangerous Precedent for Europe” - Roma Foundation for Europe, 18 November, 2025 “Romani Activists Fear Collective Punishment & Discrimination as Slovenia Passes New Security Bill" - European Roma Rights Centre, 7 November, 2025   This podcast was brought to you in cooperation with Euranet Plus, the leading radio network for EU news.

SOL LUCKMANIt's hardly surprising that one of the most iconic and bestselling musician biographies of all time, and the first (of a veritable “Spanish Caravan”) written about the Doors front man Jim Morrison, was titled NO ONE HERE GETS OUT ALIVE.The lyric is a line from “Five to One,” a perennial fan favorite penned by Morrison but credited officially to the Doors—and it has stuck in my mind (as it has in countless others over more than half a century since its 1968 release) like a splinter, to reference the movie THE MATRIX that also figures prominently in this book.When I was living in Paris in the early 1990s, I became obsessed with Morrison, and not just his music but his often macabre poetry as well. This was shortly after the release of Oliver Stone's uber provocative rock biopic that put to shame all other rock biopics, THE DOORS.As a birthday present, my girlfriend gave me a bilingual copy of THE LORDS & THE NEW CREATURES, Morrison's first volume of poetry replete with dark meditations on sex, celebrity, drugs, and (of course) death.While riding the Metro, sitting on the steps of Montmartre and sipping espresso at cafés, I found myself reading it alternately in English and the French translation to capture more and more nuances of Morrison's cryptic, multilayered thought.Jim had died in Paris and was buried in the city's famously lovely necropolis, Père Lachaise Cemetery. His grave—which once featured a stone bust with his big hippy hair made by a Croatian sculptor and stolen in 1988—was, and still is, a literal shrine to many tourists, fans and hipster locals making rock ‘n' roll pilgrimages from near and far.Practically as controversial in death as in life, ever since his untimely demise in 1971 that rocked the rock world, Morrison has lingered in a sort of public half-life.Simultaneously, he has been an inspiration for counterculture and music lovers; a nuisance for Parisians fed up with the incessant drinking, smoking and carousing that have turned his grave into an eternal party; and a would-be prodigal son to his home country, where a Florida politician bizarrely (and unsuccessfully) sought to have Jim's final resting place relocated to his birthplace, the Space Coast!My girlfriend—call her Kate—and I regularly visited Morrison's final resting place, and often partook in the festivities, which I must admit were exemplary displays of Dionysian behavior … if inevitably a regretted hangover source.Filled with more cemeteries, church crypts and bone-lined Catacombs than you could shake a Gauloise at, Paris invited an ongoing meditation on the afterlife. Like HARRY POTTER's Myrtle without the moaning, I regularly found myself contemplating the seeming inevitability of death.And then one overcast Parisian winter afternoon half a decade later, when I was back in town visiting a new girlfriend, while standing in front of Morrison's grave strewn with flowers and cigarette butts yet again as if no time had elapsed and nothing had changed, the doors of my perception (hat tip to William Blake and Aldous Huxley) suddenly burst wide open when a still small voice inside me asked this simply disarming question:“Does no one here get out alive?”Copyright © Sol Luckman.

Wow, Thanksgiving hits LinkedIn hard in the US: “I'm grateful for my boss” ; “I'm grateful for my dog” ; “I'm grateful for my favorite stapler.” I'm from Paris, and gratitude isn't something I grew up with. Parisians are so grumpy, we'd probably roll our eyes if you smiled at us. We save our gratitude for true miracles, like getting through a family dinner without someone bringing up immigration while carving the turkey. See, in France, we don't just say 'merci'. No, we write books about it. There's this French anthropologist, Marcel Mauss, who explains that kindness isn't really kindness: it's a debt. It's what he called the 'counter-gift'. You don't do someone a favor, you open a tab. You think you're just borrowing some sugar to your neighbor, and next thing you know you're hosting their dog's birthday, watering their plants, and pretending to care about their homemade kombucha. Japanese agree that not every “thank you” moment is pleasant. They actually invented a phrase for when gratitude feels like emotional spam: 'arigata meiwaku'. It's that uncomfortable vibe when somebody insists on “helping” and you end up having to perform gratitude you didn't sign up for. It's like being forced into a gratitude hostage situation. But hey, tossing a sincere "thank you" is free, it doesn't add calories, and sometimes it actually pleases people. So go on, throw some thank-yous out there when you really mean it. Just remember: real gratitude doesn't need a TED Talk or a LinkedIn post. Sometimes it's just a nod, a laugh, and moving on before things get weird. And if your “gratitude” ends up sounding more like sarcasm? That's fine too. At least in Paris, they'll respect you for it.

The Bataclan music venue has become synonymous with the Paris terror attacks of November 2015, when 130 people were killed, 90 of them while attending an Eagles of Death Metal concert at the Bataclan. Photographer Marion Ruszniewski was on assignment at the venue and was injured in the attack. Ten years on, she tells us about the events of that tragic evening, as well as her feelings about returning to work at the Bataclan a year later. Plus, as Marion publishes a book detailing two decades of concert photography, we discuss the resilient spirit that saw Parisians return to the bars, cafés and concert halls in the aftermath of the tragedy. 

What if you could spend eternity next to your favorite celebrity? Paris is making headlines with its morbidly fascinating “Death Lottery,” letting citizens pay to be buried next to famous figures like Jim Morrison and Oscar Wilde complete with tomb restoration and a chance at posthumous celebrity status. Could this quirky concept come to the U.S.? We explore the bizarre details, the costs, and why Parisians are both thrilled and creeped out. Tune in for Nina’s trending stories on The Jubal Show!

Giles is still sleeping apart from Esther because of his snoring. But he is not fully reconciled to the new arrangement. The subject hit a nerve as many listeners have been in touch with ideas to improve the situation – from wired jaws, wedge pillows or intriguingly a trip to Newcastle. After Giles composes himself, he considers a few of the options. In more upbeat new Parisians are being offered the chance to win a burial spot next to the likes of Oscar Wilde, Jim Morrison or Edith Piaf in the famous cemeteries of the Père-Lachaise, Montparnasse and Montmartre. So where would Giles and Esther like to be buried?Lastly, a new charge has started to appear on some restaurant bills – an admin charge. What is it, why is it there and does it mark the end of fine dining…? And as always please do get in touch: noidea@thetimes.com Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Spoiler: Politics, and the private lives of politicians. Synopsis: Every first Friday of the month, The Straits Times catches up with its foreign correspondents about life and trends in the countries they're based in. For more than a century, it was quite accepted in France that Presidents and male politicians could have mistresses, and no one would pry into their private lives. But public attitudes are changing, and this is manifested in persistent curiosity about President Emmanuel Macron and his wife - who have now taken the unprecedented step of filing a lawsuit to battle scurrilous allegations. In this episode, ST's foreign editor Li Xueying hosts global affairs correspondent Jonathan Eyal, who takes his skewer to double standards, culture wars and conspiracy theories that are fuelling the change.

The Siege, Starvation, and the Start of the Communard Revolt. Sebastian Smee discusses how during the Prussian siege of Paris, Parisians suffered terribly in the coldest winter on record. Radical Republicans grew furious at the moderate government's failure to defeat the Prussians. When the government surrendered and accepted severe conditions, the radicals decided to revolt. The revolutionaries, gathering in March 1871, seized cannons and established the Commune. The Communards were more libertarian than communist, aiming to democratize society. They were violent immediately, and the government forces retreated to Versailles. Paris found itself besieged again by French government forces directed by Adolphe Thiers.

A grave for over 6 million Parisians, the Paris Catacombs today are a huge tourist attraction of the city. But the history behind the subterranean ossuary is much deeper than just being a “mass grave”, and the intricate construction with bones is something that some find haunting while others find fascinating.

Full Text of ReadingsTwenty-third Sunday in Ordinary Time Lectionary: 129The Saint of the day is Blessed Frdric OzanamBlessed Frédéric Ozanam’s Story A man convinced of the inestimable worth of each human being, Frédéric served the poor of Paris well, and drew others into serving the poor of the world. Through the Saint Vincent de Paul Society, which he founded, his work continues to the present day. Frédéric Ozanam was the fifth of Jean and Marie Ozanam's 14 children, one of only three to reach adulthood. As a teenager he began having doubts about his religion. Reading and prayer did not seem to help, but long walking discussions with Father Noirot of the Lyons College clarified matters a great deal. Frédéric wanted to study literature, although his father, a doctor, wanted him to become a lawyer. Frédéric yielded to his father's wishes and in 1831, arrived in Paris to study law at the University of the Sorbonne. When certain professors there mocked Catholic teachings in their lectures, Frédéric defended the Church. A discussion club which Frédéric organized sparked the turning point in his life. In this club, Catholics, atheists, and agnostics debated the issues of the day. Once, after Frédéric spoke about Christianity's role in civilization, a club member said: “Let us be frank, Mr. Ozanam; let us also be very particular. What do you do besides talk to prove the faith you claim is in you?” Frédéric Ozanam was stung by the question. He soon decided that his words needed a grounding in action. He and a friend began visiting Paris tenements and offering assistance as best they could. Soon a group dedicated to helping individuals in need under the patronage of Saint Vincent de Paul formed around Frédéric. Feeling that the Catholic faith needed an excellent speaker to explain its teachings, Frédéric convinced the Archbishop of Paris to appoint Dominican Father Jean-Baptiste Lacordaire, the greatest preacher then in France, to preach a Lenten series in Notre Dame Cathedral. It was well-attended and became an annual tradition in Paris. After Frédéric Ozanam earned his law degree at the Sorbonne, he taught law at the University of Lyons. He also earned a doctorate in literature. Soon after marrying Amelie Soulacroix on June 23, 1841, he returned to the Sorbonne to teach literature. A well-respected lecturer, Frédéric worked to bring out the best in each student. Meanwhile, the Saint Vincent de Paul Society was growing throughout Europe. Paris alone counted 25 conferences. In 1846, Frédéric, Amelie, and their daughter Marie went to Italy; there he hoped to restore his poor health. They returned the next year. The revolution of 1848 left many Parisians in need of the services of the Saint Vincent de Paul conferences. The unemployed numbered 275,000. The government asked Frédéric and his coworkers to supervise the government aid to the poor. Vincentians throughout Europe came to the aid of Paris. Frédéric then started a newspaper, The New Era, dedicated to securing justice for the poor and the working classes. Fellow Catholics were often unhappy with what Frédéric wrote. Referring to the poor man as “the nation's priest,” Frédéric said that the hunger and sweat of the poor formed a sacrifice that could redeem the people's humanity. In 1852, poor health again forced Frédéric to return to Italy with his wife and daughter. He died on September 8, 1853. In his sermon at Frédéric's funeral, Fr. Lacordaire described his friend as “one of those privileged creatures who came direct from the hand of God in whom God joins tenderness to genius in order to enkindle the world.” Frédéric was beatified in 1997. Since Frédéric wrote an excellent book entitled Franciscan Poets of the Thirteenth Century, and since his sense of the dignity of each poor person was so close to the thinking of Saint Francis, it seemed appropriate to include him among Franciscan “greats.” His liturgical feast is celebrated on September 9. Reflection Frédéric Ozanam always respected the poor while offering whatever service he could. Each man, woman, and child was too precious to live in poverty. Serving the poor taught Frédéric something about God that he could not have learned elsewhere. Learn more about the legacy of Frédéric Ozanam! Saint of the Day, Copyright Franciscan Media

Post Malone BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Post Malone has delivered one of his boldest weeks yet, capturing headlines across entertainment and fashion circles. On September 3, he's set to electrify Paris for the first time at La Défense Arena as part of his Big Ass World Tour—a landmark event drawing thousands, with ticket sellers anticipating capacity crowds and public transport urged to handle the influx. Fans are buzzing about his setlist, which promises both chart-toppers and recent country pivots. The concert boasts a special guest opener, heightening anticipation, while arena staff recommend arrivals from 5:00 pm to ensure a smooth experience.Just days before this career-defining show, Post made a splash in the Paris fashion world, debuting his new clothing label Austin Post Apparel at none other than Karl Lagerfeld's former mansion. According to FashionNetwork, Malone—known for mixing genres as freely as he does styles—delivered a collection rooted in authentic Western wear: think ostrich leather cowboy boots, buffalo coats, and star-embroidered denim, worn by both local Parisians and American cowboys. Whiskey Riff described the Labor Day launch event as an epic, cowboy-chic affair, with Post taking bows in head-to-toe blue denim before rave reviews and raucous applause. Insiders reveal he's plotting a pop-up in New York later this month but left fans guessing where exactly to buy the gear, saying, “that's a good question.”On the music front, his country album F-1 Trillion—recorded with Nashville's heavy-hitters and featuring stars like Morgan Wallen, HARDY, and Blake Shelton—is fueling a major transition for Malone. In a candid Apple Music interview, he spoke about moving to Nashville, finding a welcoming creative community, and feeling “happy, very happy” after slowing down and ditching L.A.'s relentless demands. Friends and collaborators cite his positivity as infectious, and PEOPLE has noted his ongoing public embrace of country influences, including performances with Beyoncé and Brad Paisley.Social media has been awash in posts tagging his Paris runway event and the arena concert's logistics, though verified accounts remain sparse on controversy—most echo the celebratory tone of his recent public appearances. Major outlets are already hailing his Paris stint and fashion debut as milestones that could redefine his image for years to come. If Post Malone keeps this momentum, both the music and fashion worlds will be recalibrating for the long haul.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOta

Rabble by Geoffrey Fox is a short historical novel set during the Paris Commune of 1871 — the brief, radical workers' government that took power in Paris after France's defeat in the Franco-Prussian War.Rather than focusing on famous leaders, Fox tells the story from the perspective of ordinary Parisians swept up in the uprising: street vendors, seamstresses, bricklayers, petty criminals, and soldiers, all struggling to survive and make sense of revolutionary ideals as the city descends into chaos.Through multiple voices, the book explores the hopes, conflicts, and betrayals among the “rabble” — the people history usually overlooks — in the last desperate days before the French Army brutally crushes the Commune.

Before you listen too far, make a mental note of what you think are the three most popular streets in Paris.  Then listen to two typical Parisians as they take on this unusual question.  Of course, most people would agree on number one... but where do we go from there.

A century after the city of Berlin banned swimming in the Spree River because it was so polluted, it could make people sick, there's a push by swimmers to get back into the water. Around 200 people jumped into the slow-moving, greenish water to show that it's not only clean enough, but also lots of fun to splash and swim in the Mitte neighborhood along the world-famous Museum Island. A group calling itself Fluss Bad Berlin, or River Pool Berlin, has been lobbying for years to open the meandering river for swimmers again. "For 100 years now, people have not been allowed to swim in the inner-city Spree and we no longer think this is justified, because we can show that the water quality is usually good enough to go swimming during the season," said Jan Edler, who is on the board of Fluss Bad Berlin and helped organize the swim-in. To circumvent the ban, the group registered their collective swim event as an official protest. Standing on a little staircase that leads down to the Spree canal, which flows around the southern side of the island, Edler stressed that "we want the people to use the Spree for recreation again." He pointed to the fact that the river has been cleaned up thoroughly, and that the water quality has improved in the last decade and is constantly being monitored. Even city officials in the central Mitte district of Berlin say they'd be interested in introducing river swimming again in 2026. "There are still many things that need to be clarified, but I am optimistic that it can succeed," district city councilor Ephraim Gothe told the German Press Agency recently. Supporters of lifting the swimming ban also point to Paris, where the Seine River was opened up for swimmers for the Olympic Games last year and will be opened this summer for Parisians. Swimming had been banned there since 1923. This article was provided by The Associated Press.

James discusses the key moments and all the fallout from the Club World Cup Semi Finals as Chelsea and Paris St Germain clinched their spot on Sunday's final. Joao Pedro starred in Chelsea's win, there's discussion on how he differs from Chelsea's other attackers and on Enzo Maresca's latest tactical tweaks that worked so well in the victory against Brazilians Fluminense. And PSG demolished Real Madrid, on a night where Xabi Alonso may have regrets about his selection and tactics. There's a focus on Madrid's individualism in their players against the clear team ethic and quality of the Parisians, who themselves look like they could be about to dominate football. It doesn't mean Chelsea can't beat them though... but it also doesn't mean PSG aren't the best around if they do...

NOTED. (RELENTLESSLY)—When a company publishes a magazine, or at least an “editorial” product, for whatever reason, it is called custom publishing. I have a long editorial background in custom. And custom has a surprisingly long history itself.How long?John Deere started publishing The Furrow in 1895. The Michelin Star started as a form of custom content: what better way to sell tires to monied Parisians than by enticing them to take a drive to the countryside to try a great restaurant?Amex Publishing famously published Travel + Leisure among other titles for decades. That in-flight magazine you once enjoyed on your flight overseas? That, too, is custom publishing.Now, after some down years, custom publishing is leaning waaaaay into print again. Henrybuilt is an industry leader in designing and constructing well-built products and furnishings for the home. Henrybuilt is not, however, a company that you would think is screaming for a magazine.But the qualities that make a great magazine—attention to detail and craft, the curation of ideas, hard work—are the very qualities that have made Untapped, a “design journal that looks back to look forward.” Led by editor-in-chief Tiffany Jow, Untapped is a smart, well-designed magazine that avoids the pitfalls of most design journals in being free of jargon and thus accessible.With an enviable level of editorial freedom, Jow has created an editorial product that richly explores livable spaces and champions “ideas-driven work.” The result is a growing media entity across platforms independent of Henrybuilt while hewing closely to its brand.

Originally established in the late 18th and early 19th centuries to address the critical issue of overcrowded cemeteries, this vast network of tunnels now holds the remains of over six million Parisians.
