About this Episode

With the 2024 Paris Olympics in the home stretch, Julia and Eva sit down with Paris guide extraordinaire (and superstar Cerca Concierge), Allison Isambert of Tower to Bridge Tours. The ladies discuss the best of Paris - from baguettes to the latest parisian pastry crazes (“Brookies” and “Crookies” and they are  glorious) to the markets right outside the city where film and tv production designers buy everything from gorgeous antique armchairs to decorative swords. And, of course, how Parisians feel about the City of Lights becoming the City of the Olympics.

Plus, in this week’s Travel Trivia game - the TV Show the French utterly detest and the secret origin of the Birkin bag.

Also, an update on the s#!t in the Seine.
