Broken French

Broken French

French is hard. It sucks to spend hours learning French and still feel like you haven't made any progress. This podcast features candid, everyday conversations between me, Vince (a French, French teacher in NYC), and Matt, a perennial student of the French language. We hope our witty banter and occasional educational segue help you master the French language.
