This is the 17th episode of French for Beginners presented by the talented Alexa Polidoro.

After many years of developing and harnessing her language-teaching skills with The French Ecole, Alexa has now created an audio treat for people who wish to learn a new language from scratch, without any pressure, in fun, relaxed, and manageable chunks.

Highlights of lesson 17 include: "on" means "we" - huh?; talking in the past using the auxiliary "to have" and "to be"; very useful verbs (part 2) "pouvoir" (to be able); and all the usual bits and bobs.
