Hello everyone, welcome to this interview of the Lotus Itas. I'm very pleased today to be interviewing Rafael Paiyot from France.

And we are going to talk about the very sad events, the murder of Quentin last week.

And Raphael, I'm very pleased to be interviewing you today.

Where can people find you? Well, I'm very pleased to be interviewing you today. Where can people find you?

Well, I'm pleased too, and the people can find me on my X account, Raft Pai-O.

They can find me on my YouTube channel called the Panache, in French, of course.

And also on substack, Rafaelpaio.com.

And soon I'm planning to translate my writings in English.

So they will be able to find me there when it will launch soon.

We have been talking for some time on X.

It's more than a year now, I think.

And I'm very pleased to be talking to you in person today.

So...

Yeah, well, I think you are a very interesting thinker and philosopher.

I would have liked to talk to you about your philosophy

instead of the murder of one of my friends.

But here we are.

And I'm glad that I thank you for giving me the opportunity to defend his name and his memory

because it wasn't done so by the French media.

So yeah, thank you again.

You're welcome and thank you very much for agreeing this.

And I know that this is going to be a very emotional interview
