Concept
Tout le monde en parle is a talk show recorded in front of an audience, then edited. Every week, the show welcomes, on the same set, personalities from different spheres of interest: politics, sport, show, literature, journalism, religion, affairs, etc. They usually have taken part in news of the week, and although they are mostly Quebecers, they are sometimes international guests. They are invited to discuss, freely express themselves and share their opinions on hot topics or on topics directly related to them.
It often consists of interviews or games, sometimes only discussion. The host leads debates and conversations. A co-host, known as Le fou du roi (English: the jester), reacts promptly and spontaneously, in a humorous way, to the debate.
Host
Since the debut of the show, the host has been Guy A. Lepage, a former member of the sketch comedy group Rock et Belles Oreilles (RBO) and "the guy" in the sitcom Un gars, une fille (English: A Guy & A Girl). Le fou du roi is Dany Turcotte, former member of the sketch comedy group Groupe sanguin.
A guest host is brought in when Lepage is away, although this rarely happens. For the December 3, 2006 edition, Lepage was replaced by Véronique Cloutier so Lepage could participate in an interview with RBO.
