Francosonic presents:

Pour fêter les mères

Joyeuse fête des mères en Amérique !

As mentioned on tonight’s show, here are the origins and dates of Mother’s Day celebrations elsewhere, in the francophone world.

And you’ll enjoy this “good news” Facebook page, Un Touche d’optimisme, in which a musician sings “En clôque” (loosely translated as “A bun in the oven”). You heard the original tonight by Renaud, and this guy makes quarantine in France just a little easier with his snappy accordion version.

Merci, Maman, pour tout !
