This week's 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.

And he ends with a few tips for good gay bars to check out.

Oh yes, and here's the pic of Princess Palatine that Bryan mentioned.
