A few weeks ago, I was contacted by Reshet B and offered to be the main guest on Nativ Robinson's show.Global Path". I agreed immediately of course and then they told me that the program would take place between midnight and 3:00 in the morning. Anyone who knows me knows that during these hours I have long been in bed dreaming about A trip to the Latin Quarter Or about a meeting with Louis XIV, but I decided that it's not every day that I have the opportunity to participate in a 14-hour radio show about Paris.

So close to midnight I showed up at the studios and the Paris Marathon started. So what did we have? What didn't we have? Chansons, interviews with some notable Parisologists and of course quite a few of my own and others' musings about my beloved Paris. I must say that I really enjoyed every moment and the three hours of the program went by so quickly. I really hope you enjoy the program as much as I did.
