France Inter will soon have a new boss.

Adèle Van Reeth, philosopher and radio host, will replace Laurence Bloch at the head of the radio, announced this Wednesday the president of Radio France, Sibyle Veil, in an interview published in Le Monde.

"I chose to appoint Adèle Van Reeth, who produces

on France Culture," said Ms. Veil, questioned by the daily on the name of the successor to Laurence Bloch, head of France Inter since 2014. At the head of France Inter for eight years, Laurence Bloch, 69, "will remain until the end of the summer grid", declared Sybile Veil.

Rumors about the departure of Laurence Bloch had become more insistent since the beginning of the year, a few weeks before the presidential election and while the first radio station in France was strongly attacked by far-right candidates, Eric Zemmour and Marine Le Pen.

"Both intellectual rigor and modernity"

Normalian and philosopher Adèle Van Reeth, 39, will have the difficult mission of keeping audiences at the highest level.

She made her debut in the round house from 2011 at France Culture, with the production and animation of a daily philosophy program alongside the philosopher Raphaël Enthoven, who became her companion.

Sibyle Veil explained to Le Monde that “this choice was obvious, as Adèle Van Reeth represents everything that France Inter is: both intellectual rigor and modernity”.

“She is a great radio professional in all her dimensions: she knows what it is to produce a daily newspaper, and her program is one of the greatest successes of podcasts in replay of Radio France”, a-t- she adds.
