    Vive la Reunion! Well, we've previously had interviews in Russian and German on PBC Podcast and now French steps to the fore. In the season finale we meet our exotic visitors from a school in the Indian Ocean who came into Pres on an exchange in May. Teacher Luc Briand and his students from Reunion Island, a French Département east of Madagascar, share their culture and music with us including bi-lingual interviews and chats.

    Amuse-toi bien! We also feature an in-depth interview with our own Oisín Tóibín who is representing Ireland in the U-16 European Basketball Championships this summer. Thanks for listening and we'll see you soon for Season 5!
