Bardella Under Fire, Macron’s Comeback Dream and Perfect Fries

France is simmering. In this episode, Sara and Stefan unpack the high-school protests spreading across the country: overcrowded classrooms, missing teachers, tense confrontations with police, and what young people are demanding for their future.

They also discuss Mediapart’s reporting on alleged past antisemitic messages by Jordan Bardella — and what the political fallout could mean for the Rassemblement national ahead of 2027. Plus: is Emmanuel Macron already keeping the door open for a 2032 comeback?

And, because France never stays serious for too long: 70,000 people, one world championship, and the eternal question — are the best fries French or Belgian? Bon appétit !
