A flair for gathering friends in Paris - a podcast by Monocle

The first step in hosting is putting together a guest list: a delicate operation that requires diplomacy and some social engineering. Daphné Hézard, founder and editor in chief of Regain magazine – a French journal about countryside, agriculture and farming – takes an editorial approach by drawing up a large list and whittling it down to an ideal collection of diverse personalities. To achieve a clean and serene environment for both making your list and welcoming guests, choose the [LG SIGNATURE Smart Wi-fi Enabled Air Purifier](https://www.lg.com/global/lg-signature/air-purifier).
