Over the course of these "vertical hours", Louis-José takes up the recipe that made his first two laps of the track successful: observations of trivial everyday facts that he notes with candor, gentle cynicism and a sense of punch that is unique to it. With, as a bonus, a fresh wisdom and sensitivity, acquired with time and experience. Whether he's tackling the squirrels' lack of social etiquette, imagining out loud a lion sending text messages or serving up his inimitable facial expressions and gestures, Louis-José always hits the mark. sensitive areas of his flowerbed and has a knack for generating images in our minds.
