NEW EPISODE: Pour Le Fun

This week on Pardon Your French, me and Vanessa dive into the pure fun, madness, and everyday humour of living in France — the stuff no one warns you about, but everyone ends up laughing about.

From the charming chaos…

to the “did that really just happen?” moments…

to the small joys that make this country feel like home…

It’s an episode that’s all heart, all giggles, and all the reasons we love this beautiful, unpredictable French life.

If you’re in need of a smile, a laugh, or just a feel-good escape — this one’s for you.

Pour Le Fun is out now on Spotify, Apple Podcasts & YouTube.

Grab a cuppa (or a glass of wine), and come laugh with us!

In this week’s episode of Pardon Your French Podcast, we sit down with the ever-charismatic Andy, whose story takes us from the bright lights of UK radio to the laid-back charm of life in France — and now onto his next adventure in Spain. Once spinning tracks and sharing laughs alongside the likes of Chris Evans and Jonathan Ross, Andy has lived a life steeped in sound, stories, and spontaneity.

Now, his soundtrack has shifted from studio beats to the slower rhythm of European village life. We talk about what inspired his move to France, how he built a new chapter surrounded by wine, warmth, and community, and why Spain is now calling his name. His journey isn’t just about relocation — it’s about reinvention, chasing new horizons, and staying true to your passions wherever you land.

This conversation is filled with heart, humour, and honesty — from tales of radio chaos to the quiet moments of reflection that come with starting over. Whether you’re dreaming of a move abroad, missing the buzz of a creative career, or just love a good story of courage and curiosity, Andy’s episode will leave you inspired to keep exploring life’s next destination.
