Synopsis

Each week, host Patrice Michaud sits down with three well-known personalities from all walks of life to explore the favourite things that shaped them, from childhood to the present.

Welcome to Au bar central, a lively neighbourhood pub where all forms of culture — from the most established to the most experimental — are on the menu. From music, literature and board games, to sporting events, viral videos and reality TV, everything is up for discussion.

Through a series of warm, unpretentious conversations, Patrice gets to know his guests in a new light. Whether they're talking about the classics they grew up with, the works that defined a specific period of their life or a recent creation they passionately advocate for, they always speak from the heart. It's a sincere celebration of culture in all its forms.
