Being from New York City - here are a few phases that one may find handy.
Au voleur! ( Stop Thief )
Laissez- moi ( Leave me alone)
Je suis desole ( I'm sorry )
Ou est la banque la plus proche ( Where is the nearest bank ! )
Je crois que je suis perdu ! ( I think I'm lost )
and my personal favorite .... Je veux un avocat ( I want a lawyer ! )
and for Pete. iln ' ya pas assez de nourriture de mon plat ( There's not enough food on my plate )

Another podcast that I have been listening to is Coffee Break French (found on iTunes). I will by no means be fluent come September but will know some of the basics. I'm just happy that we will have guides to help us out when we get stuck.

Amen!!!!!!

I'll check out that Coffee Break French. ANYTHING would help. I pronounce French like Spanish (hey, I grew up in Southern California!) and it makes EVERYONE cringe!

Yes...both Coffee Break French and Visit London are free podcasts.
