Voice-over of the weekly program "Cronic Chronicles" on TFX, Jacques Pradel specifies that his magazine "

".

The point of agreement is the resumption – in more developed – of a story which the program has just spoken about.

The host also tries to decipher the public's enthusiasm for this type of news program: “

For me, there are three reasons for that.

First

and curiosity.

Then the thriller side because the intricacies of a criminal investigation interest the public.

sketch was fantastic and I really liked it.

It was very funny and made for great publicity on the show

.

“Then, questioned about his “competitor” in criminal cases, Christophe Hondelatte, Jacques Pradel confesses: “

We don’t know each other but I listen to his podcasts on Europe 1 from time to time. For me, his program

Bring in the accused
