The French Resistance holds a very solid spot in the romanticized view of French history, whether you're in the U.S. or, indeed, in France. But this period of time is far from anchored wholly in the past. To unpack the history of the Résistance – the way the story is told and the way it's used to mobilize modern politics – Emily is joined by historian and journalist Diane de Vignemont.

About Us
From one Emily in Paris to another... just speaking French isn't enough to understand the intricacies of the locals, but it's definitely a good place to start. Famously defended by armed "immortals" of the Académie Française (no, we're not making this up) the French language is filled with clues that show interested outsiders what, exactly, makes the French tick.

Each episode, listen in as Emily Monaco and an expert take a deep dive into a word that helps us gain a keener understanding of the French.
