Summary

Today on Join Us in France we visit Southern Burgundy, specifically the department of Saône et Loire (71) with Jeff Steiner of Americans in France. This is an area that French people would qualify as "la France profonde" meaning that it is rural, has centuries of history during which strong culinary and viniculture traditions developed. Is it worth a visit? You decide as we discuss all the highlights in this area. I can't wait to visit myself!

0:00.0	And the the This is join us in France episode 61.
0:35.0	Hello I'm Annie and today I'll be talking to Jeff Steiner who runs the
0:40.2	website Americans in France.net. He's been living in southern
0:44.8	Burgundy for 15 plus years I can't remember and he even wrote an
0:49.3	e-book about it. Now if you remember episode 57 with Kelly Cambodian was also about Burgundy and we talked about the history, the food, the wine of the area, but we didn't have that much time to go into many specific places, and I'll have her back on the show soon.
1:08.0	With Jeff, we discuss specific places that he's visited and written about, and I think it will help you decide if you
1:14.7	want to go see it for yourself and I certainly do. Now our conversation went along
1:19.7	swimmingly for like an hour or so and then I got a notification on my computer that the recording had stopped so I
1:27.2	started it up again and then we said goodbyes because we were done anyway. Well come to find out when I started editing the show that after
1:36.2	42 minutes of very good recording all I got was just a garbled mess. Now being a nice person I removed most of the garbled mess and I
1:47.0	spare you the rest but that means that Jeff doesn't even get to finish his
1:51.0	thought he gets cut off, which is too bad.
1:53.4	So sorry about that, Jeff, but you also produce a podcast,
1:57.3	you know the vicissitudes of recording audio with a computer.
2:00.8	Now if I had a mixer, I could use my digital recorder which never fails I have to say to
2:07.6	record Skype but I don't have a mixer which Which brings me to supporting the show.
2:13.8	And a huge thank you to Tony's French girl
2:17.2	who made a donation to the show.
2:19.6	Now you may not have noticed if you don't visit the website very often but I put a
2:24.4	donation button on the site it says tip your guide donate and Tony's French girl
2:31.0	used it and it works beautifully. Thank you very much. Now to me that makes sense people tip tour guides and I even tip tour guides so why not? But then I was told that having a donation button on the side made me an internet pan
2:48.2	handler. Well that kind of hurts my feelings because I'm not an internet pan handler
