Game over for Augustin Trapenard. The host will no longer bring back his “Boomerang” every morning on France Inter. While a new formula was planned for the start of the school year, the host created a surprise and decided to turn the page, as he had hinted Friday July 1st in this morning issue supposed to mark the end of the season and “of a cycle”, he specified then.
“Why say goodbye when you can say hello? he had launched in the preamble, his voice tight with emotion, before returning to his first broadcast eight years ago, to recount his memories, the personalities he received. While his name circulates for replace François Busnel at the controls of “la Grande Librairie”, the literary program of France 5, the discussions continued during the day between the 43-year-old journalist and the management of the public radio… Who confirms to us this Friday evening “the stop of Boomerang with Augustin Trapenard following eight intense years of daily life”.
“He will carry new projects, in particular with France Inter”
But the one who presented 1657 appointments in the morning at 9 am does not leave the station. “He will carry new projects, in particular with France Inter”, we specify with the management. Events, digital format, weekly on the air? Several avenues are under study.
In the meantime, France Inter has already found its replacement: at the start of the school year, Rebecca Manzoni will take control of a new cultural section, renamed, and which will be broadcast every day from 9:30 a.m. to 10 a.m. from August 29. The journalist and host of “Pop N’Co” returns to familiar territory: between 2004 and 2006, she also offered an open window on cultural news every morning on public radio in “Eclectic”.
