Silvio Berlusconi was a charismatic multi-millionaire real-estate mogul who upended the Italian political order and hypnotized an entire nation. He was one of the longest-serving prime ministers of one of the world’s wealthiest countries, until he was brought down by three powerful women - and two words: “Bunga Bunga.” From Wondery, the makers of Dirty John and The Shrink Next Door, and hosted by comedian Whitney Cummings, “Bunga Bunga” is an eight part series on the incredible true story of the rise and fall of Silvio Berlusconi, told with Whitney’s signature wit and style.

All Silvio, All The Time
It’s been five years since Silvio’s first term in office ended, and he’s ready for a comeback. While Silvio creates his own glossy brochure to tell voters of his idyllic life, a late-night talk show host is pulling back the curtain. He wants to answer a question that has been dogging Silvio his entire career: “Silvio, where did you get all this money?!” The answer causes a sensation. (Hint: it involves the Mafia.) But is this revelation enough to stop Silvio from winning a second time?

Recensioni dei clienti
So Good!
Well delivered insight into the normalised antics that go on, in and around, decision making in Italy.
Lucida
Ricostruzione chiara e intelligente trent’anni di storia, con un pizzico di ironia che rende l’ascolto estremamente piacevole. Bravi.
amazing, but
This podcast is amazing.
Episode 9, to be honest, is full of general thoughts on Italy and Italians and sounds a bit offensive.
