My guest today is a true Club Med legend, having worked with the company from 1985 to 1990. He began his journey at Club Med Punta Cana as—believe it or not—the Chief of Mini Club, before transitioning into Circus and eventually rising to become the Chief of Circus. For the past 36 years, he’s been a familiar face on television as a host and now produces three different shows currently airing. His voice has echoed on the world stage too, serving as the French PA announcer at both the 2010 Vancouver and 2014 Sochi Olympic Games. For the past sixteen years, he’s also helped shape the next generation of G.O.s as a Club Med field recruiter. And as if that weren’t enough, his son is now carrying on the legacy as Chief of Animation at Club Med Charlevoix. Please join me in welcoming the dynamic and multi-talented Mr. Alain Cyr! In this episode, we delve into each of Alain’s seasons with Club Med, examining the highlights, challenges, and unforgettable moments. We also get an inside look at his impressive television and sports announcing career following his time with the company. Alain reflects on the three things he misses most about his former role and shares a powerful, full-circle story involving his son and a meaningful moment on the trapeze. This is an episode you won’t want to miss! **My First Season podcast has always been ad-free and free to listen to and is available to download on: Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Samsung Podcasts, Podbean App, Podchaser, Spotify, Amazon Music/Audible, TuneIn + Alexa, iHeartRadio, PlayerFM, Pandora, and Listen Notes.
