What happens

Les Rencontres du Papotin (English: The Chatterbox Encounters) is a French television programme where a celebrity answers questions from non-professional journalists with autism spectrum disorder. The discussion is moderated by Julien Bancilhon, psychologist and editor-in-chief of Le Papotin, a magazine edited mostly by autistic people. It has been broadcast in France since 3 September 2022. It airs on certain Saturdays at 8:30p.m. on France 2, after the 8 p.m. news. It has been rebroadcast in Belgium since 5 October 2023, where it is shown on Sunday at 2 p.m. on La Une, in contrast to the original broadcast order. The show adapts the newspaper Le Papotin based on an idea by directors Éric Toledano and Olivier Nakache, by inviting a media personality to face the journalists from the newspaper's editorial staff.
