So probably try Journal en Francais Facile podcast first, and if you can understand most of that, then try these out. Otherwise, if you jump into them straight away and don't understand a lot of it, it's really discouraging + boring. And look, it depends on what interests you, coz I listen mostly to news/culture/history podcasts, but you can find ones that suit your interests. The ones I like most are:

- Grand Reportage (every day there's a new 20 minute show about a wide variety of subjects, they're kind of like small versions of foreign correspondent, but also with reports about domestic French stuff. So the type of topics are 'afghan youth and the elections' 'mental health in france' etc.)
- Paranthese (this one is about ideas, they usually interview an author of a recent book about things like 'personal vs collective happiness' or human vs animal rights etc. About a quarter of this podcast is devoted to the two female hosts mocking the male bcz he is uncultured, but he is very good-humoured about it, but I still feel sorry for him)
- Le journal de 8h (just a morning news podcast)
- La marche de l'histoire (history, half-hour eps)
- Cosmopolitaine (this is one of my favourites, they interview the coolest people, like they had an interview with Spike Jonze (with french voiceover) and one with Wes Anderson and Selden Edwards and it's just great)
- Terre a terre (environment-focused, so good for the enviro unit you do in vce, but I find some episodes a bit boring, it just depends what you're into. But terre a terre taught me that the properties of tree bark change with the phases of the moon, so I guess it's worthwhile?)

So I mean try these out if you like, but ultimately you'll only listen to things regularly if you understand them and if they interest you, so try looking around for things that suit your level and interests. Bonne chance!

catnus:
Except for Terre a Terre, I used those same podcasts! Podcasts about things that you're interested in are great for listening.

banditk:
Thank you Vermilliona and catnus! I'll look into them now  :)

Salut banditkid,

Si tu trouvais ces podcasts un peu difficile, et qu'ils parlaient trop vite, (comme moi, je ne pense pas que le journal de RFI en français facile soit tout à fait "facile"...) je te conseillerais le podcast de français authentique. Cette personne parle assez lentement je trouve, et il a une voix claire et compréhensible.

Ses episodes qui expliquent des expressions françaises sont utiles, je les recommande :)

(Sorry if you notice any mistakes in my french, I probably made some haha)
