This week on Add This To Your Playlist, we're doing something a little different. We're sharing a French episode. Specifically, a balado—because if you're going to discover the Québécois podcasting scene, you may as well learn the word for it.
French Canadian audiences are tuning in more than ever these days, and the production coming out of that world is seriously worth your attention. Case in point: Fréquences et images, produced by our friends at Phonique, a podcast agency just outside Montreal creating branded content that has the same production quality and storytelling focus as the work we do here at the Walrus.
Produced in collaboration with the OTIMROEPMQ—the organization that represents the people who run medical imaging and radiation tests in Québec—this episode demystifies radioactivity. Where we actually encounter it, what it means in a medical context, and why it's nowhere near as scary as pop culture has made it out to be.
If you want a window into the French Canadian podcast world, if you're curious about a medical experience your body has probably already had, or if you're looking for a low-stakes way to dust off your French listening skills, you need to add this podcast to your playlist!
