French that speaks to you.
Salut, c'est Hugo! I created this podcast in 2017 when I was teaching at the French institute in Warsaw, Poland. My goal was to show my students that they could learn French naturally simply by listening to it. 30 million downloads later, I think we're onto something!
Granted, it's not a magic bullet. This method still requires hundreds of hours of practice. That's why... more

L'amour, le couple et la famille ont toujours été considérés comme plus essentiels que l'amitié. On la considère souvent comme un plaisir de jeunesse qui doit passer au second plan à l'âge adulte pour se focaliser sur sa carrière et sa famille.

La France est l'un des pays au monde produisant le plus d'électricité grâce aux centrales nucléaires. Cela découle d'une volonté historique d'indépendance énergétique, l'Hexagone ne disposant pas de ressources fossiles tels que le gaz et le charbon. more
La France se présente souvent comme un pays d'égalité. La Révolution de 1789 a aboli les privilèges, la devise nationale est "Liberté, égalité, fraternité", et l'école publique est gratuite pour tous. Sur le papier, tout le monde a sa chance.

Qu’est-ce qui se passe Hugo et Ingrid?
Vous me manquez… est-ce que vous avez arrêtez ou vous allez revenir bientôt?
J’adore le podcast!
I started at episode 1 and am going forward from there. Every episode is interesting and I’m understanding more and more. News podcasts are so depressing and others are too childlike, but every one of Hugo’s is interesting and engaging. Absolutely love it!
Vous parlez assez rapidement, mais je suis ravie de voir que je peux suivre tous que vous dites. En plus, je trouve le contenu intéressant, merci.En ce moment j’écoute vos bilans de l’année dernière où Hugo parle de Scooby Doo. Je vous laisse avec cette phrase importante: Et j'aurais réussi à m'en tirer si vous, les petits fouineurs, n'étiez pas là.
Not sure the last time I rated my experience with anyone or provided feedback, but Inner French is absolutely amazing. I have spent a lot of time listening to or watching programs to help my French, and Inner French has been the best, in my opinion. Hugo’s awareness of our skill level, things we struggles with and support are unbelievable. I have been recommending the Podcast to everyone working to improve their French. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
InnerFrench is a key missing piece for me in learning French. News, movies, shows were too fast for me to understand and I was not progressing. InnerFrench built up my listening comprehension and broke the logjam. I recommend it highly.

The show targets French learners by pairing clear, natural speech with accessible topics, often accompanied by transcripts. Episodes blend language-focused tips with cultural, political, and social subjects, creating a steady progression in complexity. Listeners appreciate slower, understandable delivery, practical correction, and a wide range of topics that spark conversation at dinner tables or study sessions. A notable strength is the transcript availability and a conversational duo that expands beyond beginner content into deeper cultural and current affairs discussion, making it useful for learners who want both language practice and genuine cultural insight.
