Overview
- Fiorello returned to the microphone on Tuesday for the formal start of La Pennicanza on Rai Radio2 after postponing Monday’s studio debut due to feeling unwell.
- Monday’s scheduled kickoff proceeded without a studio audience as Fabrizio Biggio opened alone while Fiorello joined by telephone and the team retooled the format in real time.
- During the call-in appearance, Fiorello downplayed his condition and jokingly cast his absence as a cautionary tale about stepping into Bruno Vespa’s prized post-TG1 slot.
- The Rai1 promotional mini-show the previous evening posted strong Auditel results with a 22.4% share and 4,192,000 viewers.
- Fiorello has indicated plans for a ‘visual radio’ extension with extra content on digital terrestrial channel 202.
