There is a little bit of french being spoken in this interview, the video is not long, maybe 2 minutes. Can someone please tell me what is being said.

I took a couple of french classes in highschool and I thought I would be able to understand what is being said but, I can't. I can only understand the first three phrases.

Thank you!

Alright I just tried to listen to it 5 times.
I think he is saying:
"très bien présentement, j'espère"
Which would translate as "very well at this moment, I hope" , referring to the way he speaks french, I assume. He has a very, very thick Québécois accent which is pretty hard to understand for someone who is not used to it. Don't feel bad, I've been speaking french for 35 years and I am still not sure that's what he said.

I listened to it three times and couldn't understand word. Must be a heavy Canadian accent, or just bad French.

He said: "Très bien présentement, j'espère" ... that means: "Very well, now, I guess". In french, we use more "maintenant" in everyday language than "présentement" ... but that's all right.

He didn't seem very confident with his french, so he spoke very fast ... but he got it.
