In conjunction with my endeavours into French, I tried searching today for podcasts in french to work on my listening comprehension. While I do use movies for this as well, I have just about memorized Amelie and I don’t think that counts as “understanding.”
I only found one site with French podcasts and they were all out of date. I suppose I shouldn’t beg and then choose, but a girl can try. I’m relatively new to the podcasting world and so am only beginning to learn the ways to locate interesting ones - I’ve found some great law resources, as well as news and politics. But, my friends, I’m looking for French culture, history, news, politics, anything.
Additionally, I’m amassing whatever French music I can find for the same purposes. I’m virtually addicted to Carla Bruni - she is amazing. I also know that some blog I read had a whole post full of links to French music and I must hunt this down again….perhaps one of the librarians?
Update: I found the post - “French Chanson Linkfest” by Depraved Librarian. Since Finals Period is on strong, I’m going to stick to french music and will get back to films and the next of Leonardo’s Seven Senses: Dimostracione in two weeks.

Thanks for the mention! Perhaps you might also like Patricia Kass? And as for movies, how about ‘Time Regained’ by Raul Ruiz - it is on Netflix.

I’m glad you reminded me of Patricia - I just re-discovered my Launch Radio on Yahoo! and have her rated highly. Thank you for the recommendations!
