Our podcast will give you the cultural…","last_synced_at":"2026-07-13T04:17:55.631461+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/fluent-fiction-french-5994524"},"episode":{"title":"Reunited at Mont-Saint-Michel: A Family's Journey to Acceptance","slug":"reunited-at-mont-saint-michel-a-family-s-journey-to-acceptance","published_at":"2026-05-06T22:46:02+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/fluent-fiction-french-5994524/reunited-at-mont-saint-michel-a-family-s-journey-to-acceptance","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/fluent-fiction-french-5994524","url":"https://www.fluentfiction.com/fr/episode/2026-05-06-22-34-01-fr","audio_url":"https://dts.podtrac.com/redirect.mp3/api.spreaker.com/download/episode/71899020/2026_05_06_22_34_01_fr_draft_episode.mp3","summary":"Fluent Fiction - French : Reunited at Mont-Saint-Michel: A Family's Journey to Acceptance Find the full episode transcript, vocabulary words, and more: fluentfiction.com/fr/episode/2026-05-06-22-34-01-fr Story Transcript: Fr: Sous un ciel bleu clair de printemps, le Mont-Saint-Michel se dressait majestueusement, une île commune médiévale entourée de bancs de sable.
