Seine-Saint-Denis is France's poorest district. In 2024 it will be the main site of the Olympic Games. This week the government presented a plan to improve life for its 1.6 million inhabitants. What are the challenges? And is the plan sufficient?
Bad news for New York Foodies: in 2023, all foie gras will be banned. We talk with New York Chef Hugue Dufour, who is not amused with the ban.
On this side of the Ocean, Halloween is getting more and more popular every year.

Hosts Sara and Stefan discuss the new tradition. Recorded in Paris on November 2, 2019.
