What would life be like without radio? A lot poorer, if you believe the opinion polls. In his radio play, David Lescot brings together a wide variety of people who are stimulated, excited, moved, calmed or left indifferent by the radio... Simon and Geneviève are expecting a work colleague and his wife for Sunday lunch. The weather is fine, so Simon could assemble the new garden chairs for the meal on the terrace. But Geneviève would rather listen to the weather forecast again, better safe than sorry, except that the radio is constantly reporting on this one-man sailing competition, which in turn distracts Simon from his Herculean task. Lescot has modelled his characters on reality, he is a master of situation comedy and this also includes an ironic look at the main character: the radio.
