Yann Marguet Leaves France Inter After Four Years

Franco-Swiss humorist Yann Marguet has delivered his final chronicle on France Inter's Zoom Zoom Zen program to prepare for a new show.

Marguet's departure marks a transition in his career as he moves from radio commentary toward live performance and a high-profile television role. His exit follows a significant tenure at the public radio station, where he established his presence as a regular contributor.

Marguet spent four years ^[1] contributing to the Zoom Zoom Zen broadcast before his final appearance in the autumn of 2024 ^[2]. France Inter said the humorist is leaving the program to focus on the writing and direction of his upcoming stage production ^[3].

Beyond his work in radio, Marguet is expanding his presence in French media. He has been tapped to join the team of Yann Barthès on the popular show Quotidien ^[4]. While reports on the exact timing of this transition vary, the appointment positions him alongside some of the most influential media personalities in France.

France Inter said the departure was an emotional final lap for the columnist ^[3]. The transition allows Marguet to balance his duties as a television columnist with the creative demands of producing a new theatrical work.

Marguet, who is an experienced radio host and television columnist, has spent the last several years building a reputation for humor and satire ^[4]. His move to Quotidien follows a pattern of talent migration from public radio to prime-time television, a path that often increases a performer's national visibility before a major tour.
