About this episode

The hosts discuss French pop culture with special guest Babs, sharing insights on films, food, and personal experiences in France.

Bonjour, listener! Comment allez-vous? On this magnifique episode of Baconsale, messieurs Joel, Kent, and Zack will be sharing their thoughts on French pop culture. We also have a, how do you say, special guest joining us here in the La Maison de Bacon. Our bonne amie Babs will assist us with our pronunciations and share some personal experiences about her time living in France. Also, we will be giving answers for such categories as Cinema Vérité (excellent films), A Voice that Brings Me Joie de Vivre, Encore for this Export, An Invention with Savoir-Faire, Bon Appétit (good food), Faux Pas Cuisine (bad food), and My Dream Bon Voyage! There will be plenty of poor attempts at French accents, but we’ll try to avoid clichés as we converse about bread, cheat to find loopholes, and discover what isn’t actually French. Are you ready to press play? Oui? Then allons-y!
