It's borderline negligent to omit all mention of Gérard Fauré. The guy is hilarious. In which he claims coke made Johnny Hallyday gay, followed up shortly by "c'est quoi, le LGBT?": https://youtu.be/6LBSw79rI8g?t=1705


Related, if you’re interested in learning about the same happening in Florida in the 1970s and 80s, take a look at the book “the man who made it snow.” Its about a mild mannered guy who was recruited by force into the Medellin drug cartel and forced to handle logistics of cocaine in to Florida.
