While studying in Caen, he made his journalistic debut as a stringer in the weekly Pays d’Auge-Tribune.
[3] He left for Paris, performed his military service in 1968/69 in Toulon, then in Fréjus and finally in Djibouti in the naval infantry.
From 8 January 1990, Jean-Louis Ezine held a daily three-minute column on France Culture,[5] taking the form of a humorous and often caustic humor note,[6] in the successive morning programs of the station: Culture matin, Tout arrive !, Pas la peine de crier [fr], then La Matinale.
On July 19, 2013, he delivered his 5651st and latest chronicle[7] after the decision taken by the radio station to put a halt to the program.
Ezine was also a member of the literary program Le Masque et la Plume [fr] on France Inter - of which he was a true pillar, and one of the speakers with the most singular tone[4] since the beginning of the 1990s.
