  • 6.1 Why Every Parisian Shops at Monoprix | The Surprising History of Paris' Favourite Store

    6.1 Why Every Parisian Shops at Monoprix | The Surprising History of Paris' Favourite Store
    2026/07/14
    In this episode of Coffee Pot Conversations, I explore my slightly unusual tradition of buying a Monoprix shopping bag every time I visit Paris. What began as an accidental souvenir has become a gateway into one of France's most recognisable retail brands.From humorous encounters with Monoprix staff to the surprising history of the company itself, we uncover how a department store founded in 1932 became woven into everyday Parisian life.We also follow the fascinating evolution of Monoprix through its partnerships with Casino Group, Franprix, Naturalia and even Ocado, revealing how one familiar Paris shop sits at the centre of a much larger retail story.Along the way, I share stories from shopping in Les Halles, Bastille, Nation and Ledru-Rollin, discovering that sometimes the ordinary places reveal far more about Paris than its famous monuments.If you've ever wandered through Paris carrying one of those famous white Monoprix bags - or simply want to understand everyday Parisian life - this episode is for you.Perfect for listeners interested inParis • Paris travel • Paris shopping • Monoprix • Hidden Paris • Everyday Paris • French supermarkets • Paris history • Paris culture • France travel • Les Halles • Bastille • Nation • Paris podcast • Shopping in Paris • French retail history • Visiting Paris • Local Paris • Paris stories☕ Coffee Pot Conversations explores the hidden history, everyday culture and overlooked stories that make Paris one of the world's most fascinating cities.Rather than ticking off famous landmarks, each episode invites you to experience Paris as a visitor rather than a tourist.New episodes explore forgotten streets, remarkable people, cafés, neighbourhoods and the stories hiding in plain sight.The Earful Tower⁠ with Oliver Gee⁠La Vie Creative⁠ with Krystal Kenney⁠Bleu Blonde Rouge⁠ with Claudine Hemingway📹 YouTube - ⁠⁠https://youtube.com/@CoffeePotConversations/📷 Instagram - ⁠⁠https://instagram.com/anenglishmaninparisblog/⁠⁠✒️ Blog - ⁠⁠https://anenglishmaninparis.blog/⁠⁠☎️ Message - ⁠https://voicenote.anenglishmaninparis.blog/⁠📧 Email -⁠ ⁠6.1@anenglishmaninparis.blog⁠⁠🔗 Links - ⁠⁠https://anenglishmaninparis.start.page/⁠⁠📣 Shout out - ⁠⁠shoutout@anenglishmaninparis.blog⁠⁠🎂 Birthdays - ⁠⁠birthday@anenglishmaninparis.blog⁠⁠💰 Support - ⁠https://patreon.com/coffeepotconversations⁠☕ Buy Me a Coffee - ⁠https://buymeacoffee.com/anenglishmaninparis⁠⁠ Introduction (00:24)News (03:54)Coffee Pot Conversation (14:00)Conclusion part 1 (27:21)Coming Up part 1 (34:58)Conclusion part 2 (35:29)Coming Up part 2 (38:31)Outro (39:08)

  • 5.10 The Best Bits (Season 5)

    5.10 The Best Bits (Season 5)
    2026/05/26

    There's not much to say - except 50 (official) episodes have brought me to this moment in time.

    There's a lot to do and a lot to come, but that's for Seasons 6 and 7.

    • For those of you who have been with me from the beginning, I thank you.
    • For those of you who have joined me more recently, I thank you.
    • For those of you who have joined me since I recorded this episode, I thank you.

    There is a lot of time and work that goes into making these episodes and for you to be spending some of yours with me is what makes me continue.

    Not just that, but also my love of creating and of Paris.
