Lionel speaks with Pascal, the director of the "Langue Sous Hypnose" (Language Under Hypnosis) school, who explains how hypnosis can help make language learning less daunting. Though Pascal says that "it's not hypnosis that teaches people languages, it's the teacher," he claims that hypnosis can make your brain more receptive to learning a new language.

Lionel takes us inside an amazing store filled with multicolored candies called dragées, or sugared almonds. This confection is very much a part of French tradition as it is offered at weddings, baptisms, and communions. A good-quality dragée is made from a top variety of almond like the Avola. Larger almonds require a thinner layer of sugar, which is considered a sign of quality as the delicate almond flavor won't be overwhelmed by the sugar.

Lionel is at a local market in Toul near Alsace, where he samples a beer from a local micro-brewery that sells its products at several markets in the area. The beer goes by the name of "Coin Coin" ("Quack Quack") for no other reason than catching people's attention. The young lady, who brews the beer herself, reassures Lionel that consuming her beer will not give him webbed feet...

Lionel takes us to a highly regarded soccer club where the shadow of certain famous soccer players like Rouyer and Platini still hangs. The Nancy-Lorraine Soccer Club grooms high school boys into professional soccer players, endeavoring to strike a balance between academic and sporting achievements.

Lionel takes us inside the AS Nancy-Lorraine soccer club in Velaine-en-Haye, where young men can study full-time and train to become professional soccer players.

Jean-Pierre's canine club is a very structured environment, where both the dog owners and the dogs receive a membership card. And the dogs even receive a report card as well, just like children in school!

We continue our visit of the madeleine factory in Liverdun. This time, we see the finished product coming out in its packaging. Claude, who has been working at the factory for twenty-nine years, shows us the packing process.

Lionel introduces us to Norbert, a former mailman who always had an interest in music and, after retiring, finally got to pursue his passion by setting up his own recording studio.

Norbert explains the intricacies of a recording studio and the latest technology and trends in the music industry. He also tells us who the first artist to use auto-tune was.

Lionel visits the Musée du Sabotier (Clog Museum) in the village of Soucht, where the traditional craft of clog making has been practiced for centuries.

In part two on this series on the Clog Museum, we meet the last remaining clog maker in the village. And surprisingly, he isn't wearing clogs!

Hilaire from the Clog Museum shares some more interesting facts about clog manufacturing back in the day. For instance, clogs used to be sold without a strap—the buyer would have to put one on him or herself.

We continue our visit to the Clog Museum with Lionel and Hilaire who will teach you how to use some very interesting tools for clog manufacturing.

We continue our series on clog making. Hilaire explains step three, the hollowing out of the clog with special equipment, and the finishing stage, sanding the outside and drying the wood.

Hilaire summarizes all the steps in the clog-making process. The Clog Museum has descriptions with models in relief for the blind and visually impaired.
