This week’s podcast guest is Bryan Pirolli, an author, marathon runner, and a tour guide around Gay Paris.
He explains a little about the city’s gay history, its present and its future. He also shares his thoughts on just how gay friendly the city is.
And of course, we have a good old chat about Paris and tour guiding in general. Not to mention where you can find a “baguette magique” (see video below).
Bryan ends with a few tips for good gay bars to check out. Listen to it below, and subscribe to hear these episodes on your phone every Monday.
Above is the video from when Bryan and I met during the pride week in 2018 for a walk show around the gay quarter of Paris. The X-rated baguettes are at Legay Choc at 45 Rue Sainte-Croix de la Bretonnerie in the fourth arrondissement.
Oh yes, and here’s the pic of Princess Palatine that Bryan mentioned, in case you were wondering.
