Coffee Pot Conversations hosted by An Englishman in Paris

Hello and welcome to Coffee Pot Conversations hosted by An Englishman in Paris. This podcast covers many aspects of Paris. These episodes have me talking about things I find interesting about Paris, guests talking about things they find interesting about Paris or guests talking about things I find interesting about Paris. A low-budget escapade, be prepared for a laid-back feel and a whole heap of information in some of the more factual episodes. I’m always looking for feedback, recommendations and suggestions. Every 2nd and 4th Tuesday of the month (January to May, July to November)

In this ad-hoc, ad-libbed Christmas special episode, I continue waffling on and making people wonder they follow my podcast.

    Betrayal Season 5

    Saskia Inwood woke up one morning, knowing her life would never be the same. The night before, she learned the unimaginable – that the husband she knew in the light of day was a different person after dark. This season unpacks Saskia’s discovery of her husband’s secret life and her fight to bring him to justice. Along the way, we expose a crime that is just coming to light. This is also a story about the myth of the “perfect victim:” who gets believed, who gets doubted, and why. We follow Saskia as she works to reclaim her body, her voice, and her life.
