    Marjane Satrapi, autrice franco-iranienne
    Jul 2 2026

    In this episode, Gaelle talks about Marjane Satrapi, an Iranian-French artist who died in June 2026, at the age of 57. She was really well known and famous in France, where she had emigrated from Iran at the age of 25 and where she published her first and bestseller graphic novel, Persepolis. Her professional career and personal life both deserve some praise as she was a strong female voice fighting against a tyrannic regime.

    In this episode, Gaelle talks about the trend of “no-kids” spaces in France. It all started when the national train company offered new premium seats in coaches where children under 12 were not allowed. That sparked a fierce debate on the internet and national TV about the appropriateness of such places, where children were banned.

These episodes are great for expansion my French vocabulary and getting used to French. I play it at 1.2 because normal speed is very slow!

Gaelle has a lovely speaking voice, she doesn’t speak too slow so that the liaisons disappear but not too fast that it’s hard to follow. The topics are interesting too which means i learn more about francophone culture and current affairs as well as historical topics.

Interesting and nice to listen to
