Coming up on today' show, we take a look at how PSG - who now have a ten-point lead atop the standings after Marseille threw away a two-goal lead over Strasbourg - very nearly didn't bounce back from Champions League elimination to Bayern Munich in mid-week.

Au programme de Tour d'Europe cette semaine, direction l'Angleterre pour débuter. Si Arsenal l'a emporté ce dimanche à Fulham (0-3), il le doit en grande partie à Leandro Trossard, recrue hivernale dans le ton, tout comme Jorginho.

Vainqueur à Monaco dimanche (0-1), le Stade de Reims de Will Still reste sur une folle série de 19 matches sans défaite en L1. Le coach belgo-britannique impressionne pour ses débuts comme entraîneur avec une méthode rafraîchissante, comme le souligne Elton Mokolo. Jusqu'où ira-t-il ?Alors que le FC Barcelone est sous le feu des critiques après les révélations d'échanges financiers entre l'ancienne direction et un ancien cadre de l'arbitrage espagnol, le Real Madrid a communiqué sa volonté de figurer parmi les parties civiles.

Écoutez l'histoire de Louis IX, plus communément appelé Saint-Louis, racontée par Virginie Girod dans un récit inédit en deux épisodes. Saint Louis est un roi médiéval exemplaire, le souverain qui rend la justice au pied de son chêne. Le XIIIe siècle est souvent considéré par les historiens le “siècle de Saint Louis”. Et pour cause, chevalier courageux et combatif, souverain habile et sage, Louis IX a porté le royaume des Capétiens à son apogée, avec un prestige sans égal. Roi chrétien, chef pieux, Saint Louis apparaît comme le modèle du roi chrétien tel que se le représentaient les hommes du « beau Moyen Âge ». Son règne a contribué à fonder l'idée de l'incarnation d'un pouvoir politique et spirituel en un homme singulier et non plus seulement en un Dieu universel. Après la mort de son père Louis VIII Le Lion, le 7 novembre 1226, Louis IX accède au trône et est sacré à Reims la même année. Louis IX devient roi à 12 ans. Son règne est marqué par la tutelle et la régence de sa mère. Le sort du royaume est ainsi entre les mains de l'énergique Espagnole : Blanche de Castille. “Au cœur de l'Histoire est une production Europe 1 Studio.Sujets abordés : Croisade – Sainte-Chapelle – Relique – Justice - Régence - Sacre - Capétiens - Couronne – Moyen Âge - Féodalité - Religion – Guerre de Cent Ans

Bonjour and welcome back to Casser Les Lignes, the French football podcast with the accent with your host, Jeremy Magan. On this episode, Jeremy shared his analysis on: [Ligue 1's Matchday 27] = 10 games on the weekend, 5 away wins OM 2-2 Strasbourg: 10 men OM goes up 2-0 before changing tactics and conceding twice with 3 minutes to go Lille 3-3 Lyon: 6 goals in one half, Lille and Lyon being Lille and Lyon, failing to find consistency in results Brest 1-2 PSG: PSG still reeling from their elimination in UCL needs another prowess from Mbappe at the last minute to get all 3 points. PSG once again only playing for Ligue 1. Something has got to change. Analysis on the rest of games in Ligue 1, with Reims' surprising win in Monaco (their 17th game undefeated) and Lens thrashing Clermont away.

PSG lose Neymar to ankle surgery as they crash out of the UCL to Bayern while former Football Manager player Will Still has led Reims to 18 games unbeaten. Arsenal put on a potential title-winning performance as they beat Bournemouth at the death. Liverpool handed Manchester United their worst loss in EPL history by scoring SEVEN goals, SIX coming in the second 45 minutes. Liverpool have heated up the race for top 4.

Jimbo, James Horncastle, Raphael Honigstein, Julien Laurens and Alvaro Romeo are back together at The Athletic studios in anticipation of some red-hot Champions League second legs. Bayern host PSG with a 1-0 lead but can they contain Kylian Mbappe, PSG's newly crowned all-time top scorer? Especially when Julian Nagelsmann seems to have lost faith in Joao Cancelo. Dortmund travel to Stamford Bridge after securing their 10th win in a row in 2023. They've learned how to play without the ball and the brilliant Julian Brandt is archetypal of the new Dortmund. Spurs welcome Milan to North London for a fixture that's too close to call. Is Rafael Leao due a big performance for the Rossoneri? Domestically, Sevilla are smashed 6-1 by Atletico with Sampaoli and Monchi both under the microscope. And Will Still is still unbeaten in Ligue 1 with Reims. Plus Scott Parker, Piers Morgan and boil-in bag rice. Produced by Charlie Jones.

When in April 2019, a fire broke out at the Cathedral, the world watched as the tragedy unfolded and an outpouring of love for the building showed just how much it means to so many.Is the Cathedral haunted?Could a place so blessed and revered have a darker side?Tombs were uncovered as part of a cache of statues, sculptures and fragments of the cathedral's original 13th-century rood screen buried under the floor of the transept crossing at the heart of the cathedral that was ravaged by fire in April 2019.Maybe this is where some of the apparitions come from?Let's find out who might be haunting one of the most significant gothic Cathedrals in the whole of the world.We would ask that you leave us a review and if you haven't done so yet please SUBSCRIBE.Send us a message as we would love to hear from you.Leave us feedback or a message with what you think is going on here on our Facebook page at: https://www.facebook.com/TrueHauntingsPodcastIf you have enjoyed this episode please leave us a review and subscribe and share.We would love to hear from you too!Join us on our Facebook page - https://www.facebook.com/TrueHauntingsPodcastP.S.

1805. Reims. Une femme, âgée de seulement 27 ans, perd son mari, François Clicquot, un jeune vigneron qui travaillait pour son père dans une Maison de champagne. A la mort de son fils, le propriétaire s'apprête alors à laisser tomber son affaire. Mais la veuve, animée par la passion du vin, lui propose de prendre en charge l'entreprise. La Maison de champagne deviendra alors l'une des plus novatrices et des plus réputées au monde. Le nom de cette femme : Barbe-Nicole Clicquot, dite la veuve Clicquot. De sa passion pour le vin au triomphe d'une entrepreneuse, découvrez sa True Story. Une femme audacieuse et déterminée Barbe-Nicole Ponsardin naît à Reims en 1777. Nous ne savons pas grand chose de son enfance à part qu'elle est la fille d'un haut négociant de la ville. Et lorsque ce dernier meurt en 1820, il laisse à sa fille une bonne partie de sa confortable fortune. Barbe est une femme très audacieuse et déterminée. Elle est dotée de grandes valeurs et son éducation n'y est pas pour rien.

Sprache macht Spaß, gereimte ganz besonders. Wer reimt, der kostet Ton und Klang der Sprache aus, der spürt der geheimnisvollen Verwandtschaft nach, die zwischen ähnlich lautenden Wörtern walten mögen. Seit alters her haben sich die Menschen viele Möglichkeiten einfallen lassen, den Gleichklang der Wörter auszukosten. (BR 2013)

Le baptême de Clovis est l'une des dates marquantes de l'Histoire de France. Né en 466, il succède, en 481, à soin père, Childéric Ier, Roi des francs saliens et fils de Mérovée, le fondateur, en partie légendaire, de la dynastie mérovingienne. Cette date n'est d'ailleurs pas connue avec certitude. Le baptême aurait eu lieu, en effet, en 496 ou en 498. Clovis aurait choisi le jour supposé de la naissance du Christ, le 25 décembre, pour se faire baptiser. La conversion du souverain provoquant alors celle de son peuple, le Roi ne reçoit pas le baptême seul. En effet, il entraîne avec lui 3.000 de ses guerriers. Quand il accède au trône, Clovis, comme d'autres souverains germaniques, est païen. Dès lors, on peut se demander pourquoi il adopte la religion chrétienne. Pour expliquer cette conversion, les historiens évoquent d'abord l'influence de sa femme, la Reine Clotilde, fille de Chilpéric II, Roi des Burgondes. Clotilde est chrétienne et, comme elle est très pieuse, elle aurait tout fait pour convaincre son époux de partager sa foi. On note là le premier indice d'un parallèle avec la conversion de l'Empereur Constantin, en 312. En effet, l'influence d'une femme, en l'occurrence sa mère Hélène est, comme pour Clovis, jugée primordiale dans sa décision. Par ailleurs, l'évêque de Reims, saint Remi, et, à travers lui, l'Église de Gaule, joue un rôle essentiel dans la conversion de Clovis. En effet, les chrétiens ont besoin d'être protégés contre des Rois païens ou professant l'hérésie arienne. Une fois converti au christianisme, Clovis pourrait être ce protecteur. Mais il doit, lui aussi, s'appuyer sur les évêques. Dans une période où les autorités locales, et notamment celles des villes, se sont effacées, ce sont ces prélats qui encadrent les populations. Enfin, comme Constantin au pont Milvius, en 312, Clovis considère qu'il doit sa victoire sur les Alamans, à la bataille de Tolbiac, en 496, à l'intervention du Dieu de Clotilde. Voyant son armée sur le point de perdre pied, il l'aurait invoqué, jurant de se convertir s'il lui donnait la victoire. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

The Western Front evokes images of mud-spattered men in waterlogged trenches, shielded from artillery blasts and machine-gun fire by a few feet of dirt. This iconic setting was the most critical arena of the Great War, a 400-mile combat zone stretching from Belgium to Switzerland where more than three million Allied and German soldiers struggled during four years of almost continuous combat. It has persisted in our collective memory as a tragic waste of human life and a symbol of the horrors of industrialized warfare. In this epic narrative history, the first volume in a groundbreaking trilogy on the Great War, the acclaimed military historian Nick Lloyd captures the horrific fighting on the Western Front beginning with the surprise German invasion of Belgium in August 1914 and taking us to the Armistice of November 1918. Drawing on French, British, German, and American sources, Lloyd weaves a kaleidoscopic chronicle of the Marne, Passchendaele, the Meuse-Argonne, and other critical battles, which reverberated across Europe and the wider war. From the trenches, where men as young as 17 suffered and died, to the headquarters behind the lines where Generals Haig, Joffre, Hindenburg, and Pershing developed their plans for battle, Lloyd gives us a view of the war both intimate and strategic, putting us amid the mud and smoke while at the same time depicting the larger stakes of every encounter. He shows us a dejected Kaiser Wilhelm II―soon to be eclipsed in power by his own generals―lamenting the botched Schlieffen Plan; French soldiers piling atop one another in the trenches of Verdun; British infantryman wandering through the frozen wilderness in the days after the Battle of the Somme; and General Erich Ludendorff pursuing a ruthless policy of total war, leading an eleventh-hour attack on Reims even as his men succumbed to the Spanish Flu. 35 black-and-white illustrations, 8 maps
