Every morning, Pascal Praud hosts Time for the pros live between 9 a.m. and 10:30 a.m. on CNews. Shortly before 9:30 a.m., he sounded an alert on set so as not to miss his handover with Thomas Isle on Europe 1 – the first half hour of his show being co-broadcast there -.
Everything did not go as he had imagined on Tuesday October 8, 2024. While the debates were centered on the theme “Calls for intifada in demonstrations”, the host, who was stung by the attitude of a guest of Léa Salamé, cut short the exchanges on set. The chime of Europe 1, signifying that it was time for his handover with Thomas Isle, was heard.
“The carillon of Europe 1 because it is what allows us to greet our friend Thomas Isle every day”he told his loyal viewers. One of his columnists then hastened to notify him that it was not Thomas Isle who was present in duplex. “Ah it’s not Thomas Isle, I’m told today…“reacted, taken aback, the host who found himself in a bad position after his comments on the Mazan trial.

“SO I hope you’re not going to play the truth game on me because frankly… On the other hand, you could do Wanted with me, but I don’t know if the people who were at school with me would want…“, added the host in reference to the cult shows presented by Patrick Sabatier in the 80s on TF1. He then launched into a series of praises for the man whose life was turned upside down by a heavy family secret.
“Patrick Sabatier is a genius, there are few in our profession. He invented concepts: Wanted poster, The game of truth… And then, there was also a whole Sunday afternoon which was fantastic , Lucky charm. In our professions, Wanted, it was incredible!he chanted before humorously blurting out to his unexpected interlocutor of the day: “It’s not good to have taken Thomas Isle’s place after all!”.
Patrick Sabatier was quick to point out that he was going to make Thomas Isle’s place “with great pleasure”. In the wake of this surprise handover for Pascal Praud, he was the guest of the former host of The Daily In Culture Media on Europe 1.
