Summary

Did you know there's a sewer museum in Paris?

In case you're put off by the thought of even stepping foot inside it - don't worry, I've done it for you.

Yes, I teamed up with past guest Amber Minogue (hear her last appearance here) and we went underground to check out the Musée des égouts.

And Corey Frye the tour guide ties it all together with a story about the Paris catacombs.

Find Amber's podcast, Paname, here

You can find pics from the sewer trip on www.theearfultower.com and you can find more info about the museum here.
