Checked October 2026 on the official site ·
Little Talk in Slow French is Nagisa Morimoto's podcast of slow, unhurried conversations about life and current affairs in France, with more than 100 episodes of around half an hour. Each episode links a transcript on Patreon, and the ones we opened were readable without paying. It suits an A2 or early B1 learner who needs French slowed right down to follow a whole conversation. It is not a course: there is no English, no explanation of grammar, and the slow delivery is a step towards real speed, not a substitute for it.
