“This podcast is perfect. I use it as a vehicle for French conversation classes. I wish I’d discovered it before. Lots of new vocabulary within the context of current events which my students are already interested in, in English. A great way of learning.”

“Love the program and the transcripts with sayings and harder words defined by hovering.
I do wish there were more speed choices than 0.5, 1 and 1.5 because 1.5 is now too slow for me.”

“So happy to have found this! I have studied french for a few years and while I read it quite well, I continue to struggle with listening comprehension. I was feeling very frustrated by this. Listening and understanding real news, spoken by native french speakers, is very empowering. I feel...”Read full review »

“It is as the other recent reviews have stated.
Used to have at least one story, but now has hardly any content. It seems that now over half of the audio is the introduction and the outro, with about a minute of new French content in the middle, where they tell you what they will discuss if...”Read full review »

“Quel malheur! This podcast was great when you actually got to hear one news story and one commentary. Unfortunately, they truncated the podcast to just the introductory segment earlier this year. I can only suppose this was an effort to drive more business to the paid subscription full-length...”Read full review »

“This used to have a short news story or two that was worth listening to and then end with information on how to hear the full program. Now it’s just a 4 minute teaser for the full program with no actual substance. Don’t bother.”

“This used to a snippet of the full show, which you have to pay for online. They featured one short news story, and it was great. They've removed that completely and now it's about 4 minutes of mindless chatter. You can't really advertise this as "news" in slow french if you...”Read full review »

“If you want to learn a language it’s always good to hear how it sounds, plus you get to listen to the news and catch up on current events from all around the world. It has really helped my own French comprehension. When I first started listening it was a bit hard, but now I can understand most of...”Read full review »

“I want to learn French but it seems like when people learn a language mostly through written content, their pronunciation suffers because they try to pronounce the words as they would sound in their native language. I’m so glad I found this podcast! I’ve barely studied any French and I already...”Read full review »

“For now, not yet ready for iphone 6. Still a good learning tool.
I think all french learners just need to subscribe two podcasts: News in Slow french and the One thing in a french day by Laetitia Perraut. They are just clever and sensitive to the learners' weaknesses and needs. I am...”Read full review »

“The latest update came out recently and revamped the look : easier to read with a more modern look, though some bugs to fix. But I’m not too worried because I’ve always had a good experience with Linguistica360.”

“This podcast has proven very helpful for refreshing my French language skills. Because they are discussing current events in a news broadcast style, it is relevant and interesting. I also find the banter between the two hosts after each story to be helpful, as it gets into a more conversational...”Read full review »

“Great idea! It's perfect for a commute and I can get a lot of it in context to news so it's amazing how I know the basic thread and can learn words because I can anticipate the story already. Also, instead of blasting by long numbers, they repeat them.”Read full review »

“The free version is an excellent get learn French (once you are at least an intermediate). I think this would be above most beginners.
