k&k episode 140 - the one where they declare their reign as karaoke queens... and stuff...
We're thrilled to welcome the delightfully English Rhino75 to the Coffee Table Studio for episode 140. We cover topics such as Gay Karaoke, the advantages of watching Nouvelle Star, musicals, cool listeners, dreams featuring k&k and birthday months (and we get interrupted by a hyperactive Symphony about 300 times). Rhino tells us a bit about how he found himself in France and how he learned French, then we take a slight detour and talk about Grange Hill, prefects and uniforms, then Katia shares some of her boarding school adventures and Kylie tells us all about what she did in the marching band.
This episode was brought to you by the word "un rêve" (a dream).
And we've got lots of adventures planned! We're having an apéro-picnic on Saturday 24 May and we're going to see Mamma Mia in July - if you want to join in on any or all of these adventures (and more on our events page), let us know!

k&k episode 138 - the one brought to you by the letter M... and stuff...
We're thrilled to have yet more new guests in the Coffee Table Studio this week - this time around it's Axel and Michelle in episode 138! We have a host of interesting topics in today's episode, such as mojito making, mint crisp m&ms, meeting listeners, world travel and American geography lessons. Michelle tells us a little about how she found herself in France, then Axel talks about being a Frenchman in the US and about his experiences in the American university system, which turns into a debate about the respective merits of the different schooling systems around the world and whether higher education actually prepares you for the real world, and then we chat about the weird and wonderful concept of school rings, varsities, pep rallies and high school rivalries.
This episode was brought to you by the word "la menthe" (mint).
