Where are all of the good Francophone podcasts (that aren't about francophony itself)? That would be the ideal way to improve upon my already intermediate level of French and have non-awkward conversations with customers at my job in Québec, now that I no longer have high school for daily French class (which did a remarkably terrible job at actually teaching me and most students how to speak French).
If it helps, I'm interested in science (all fields but mainly physics), math, philosophy, psychology, and music.
Pic related is mfw no language filter on Spotify for playlists and I'm just desperate to become fluent in French after living in Québec almost half of my life with a French Canadian dad (French as his first language) who, along with my mom, decided it'd be a good idea to not give their child the gift of a bilingual upbringing along with other mistakes which I still deeply resent but lets not get into that right now.
Youtube search results are almost always shit, and although Québecois will work as a search term, and I am living in Québec, I think France French is just better.

Romeo Elvis (not french) and his sister make nice music, but she's not hip hop more rnb and also not french either.
William Martinez
Thank you! Not a podcast, but this is the best post so far.

Do you like hockey? I’m sure there are French language hockey podcasts. You could learn some banter that might help you with French speaking Normies
Brandon Evans
then you should have a look at NotaBene and Linguisticae channels on youtube too, if that's what you're into

>I think France French is just better. Plenty of Québécois podcasts are done in a relatively neutral non-colloquial language. As an intermediate speaker you probably would hardly even be able to tell the difference. You're simply not at a level to be nitpicking about the exact accent (since anyway your own non-francophone accent will remain the biggest obstacle in that regard for quite some time, regardless of which podcasts you listen to). And even if the podcasts are in a more colloquial register, you said your problem was in large part with your customer service job here in Quebec, so I'm puzzled as to why you would specifically avoid podcasts in Quebec French.

Fair point, I am a bit of an idealist with a blindspot to reality.
you can listen to it without watching the video tho. like the other user said notabene, linguisticae are great too, i would add : alt236, alterhis, astronogeek, axolot, there are way more.

best way to learn french if you don't live around french speakers?
Mason Walker
watching French stream, French news channels internet broadcasts, French movies with subs, youtube channels with subs, reading French books
Eli Johnson
like any other language : only consume contents in your target language and work a lot with audiobooks like assimil or pimsleur, study vocabulary with flash cards on anki and you should build a strong base.

On peut déjà commencer ici si tu veux t'améliorer Les podcast et les livres audio, ou même juste Radio-Canada en français ça peut aider mais faut s'immerger. Il faudra en faire des erreurs et parfois les gens vont te corriger, la plupart du temps assez gentiment. Tu vas parfois tomber sur des con, mais pour la plupart des gens on préfère seront très reconnaissant de l'effort
I worked in Alberta a few years ago, and this is when i really learned how to speak english (I'm from rural Quebec) and i must say people where mostly nice Just be open to learn and be grateful when people correct you, they are your teacher Godspeed user
Aussi, vas dans l'internet francophone. Like des pages de meme Québ. sur facebook. N'importe quoi peut aider. Regarde les films de dennis villeneuve en francais.
Innerfrench updates almost every week and the dude also has a youtube channel
Also Culture 2000

>I think France French is just better. This is nigh identical to each other vocab and normal speaking wise. I literally have been to school in France and everyone understood me perfectly just asked where I was from and I’m Acadian and no I don’t speak chiac ever
Mason Sullivan
Only thing is really different is the weird slang both of us which is completely different but just having a conversation I don’t see how any is better or worse because we can understand each other just fine
