On the front page, a small revolution in the world of radio.

It's a new free application for listening to the radio - it's called Radioplayer France.

It was launched this Thursday, at the initiative of almost all radio stations including Europe 1. Radioplayer France is a kind of digital radio set, available on smartphones, computers, speakers and TVs connected.

You can choose the station of your choice from among the major national private and public radio stations, as well as from 130 independent radio stations and 600 Internet radio stations.

At your disposal, also 100,000 podcasts, including those from Europe 1, all without advertising apart from the one on the air of course.

The podcasts that are more and more listened to. 

Nearly 114 million downloads last month, according to Médiamétrie's monthly study.

14 million for Europe 1 which places 4 of its podcasts in the Top 30: “Historically yours”, “At the heart of history”, “La revue de almost” by Nicolas Canteloup and “Hondelatte Raconte” which is 3rd in the ranking and still the # 1 story podcast.

A new competition on the L'Equipe channel. 

And not just any!

The 24 Hours of Le Mans, one of the biggest car races in the world.

The sports channel has just stolen the rights from France Televisions for the next three years.

The price remains secret.

It will broadcast the event until 2023, an important year since it will be the centenary of the 24 hours, with the announced return of Ferrari and Audi, in particular.

With the 24 Hours of Le Mans, L'Equipe fills a gap: it was the only race in the endurance world championship that it did not broadcast.

All the others are on the channel ... An argument that weighed against France Télévisions.

Who will present, who will comment on the competition?

No answer yet.

The device is not yet fully defined but there will be people.

The 24 hours of Le Mans, on the L'Equipe channel, will be on August 21 and 22.

BFM will have many local chains on the Côte d'Azur.

The CSA has just validated the acquisition of Azur TV, announced in early February.

Green light, therefore, given to Altice, the parent company of BFM Régions, which will take over the Azur TV channels and thus continue its development.

The Superior council of audio-visual explains that this acquisition does not compromise the pluralism and the interest of the public. 

An event documentary on the Paris firefighters will be broadcast Sunday evening on M6. 

Documentary event because its director, Manuel Laigre, followed them for a year.

In their barracks, on the ground.

Especially at the scene of the chopper attack, committed in front of the former premises of Charlie Hebdo, last September.

Documentary in immersion, therefore - as close as possible to these soldiers, in emergency vehicles or in burning buildings.

A condition all the same to be able to turn so close to the firefighters: to do a training (Manuel Laigre mentioned it at the moment).

10 days to familiarize yourself with the flames, the smoke, the heat.

It was only after that that he was able to follow the firefighters on all the fires.

Particularly impressive images, and difficult to shoot.

Manuel Laigre, director of the documentary “Pompiers de Paris: A year at the heart of an elite unit” is in “Zone Interdite”, Sunday, at 9 pm on M6. 

Twitter almost bought Clubhouse.

The social network would have offered nearly 3 billion 400 million euros to buy the young application - which offers to communicate via audio shows. But the talks were unsuccessful, according to Bloomberg, without knowing who ended them and why. What we do know, however, is that Twitter is working on a feature that would be in all points similar to Clubhouse.
