THE2026 opens in good spirits with the return of one of the most loved daytime radio (and television) events. She’s back Pennicancethe program of Fiorello and Biggio which, from Monday to Friday at 1.45 pm on Rai Radio2 and on channel 202, he keeps Italians company with a unique mix of satire, music and improvisation. The first episode of the year did not disappoint expectations, immediately focusing on current political events (and Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni) with the Sicilian showman’s usual scathing style.
Fiorello’s response to Giorgia Meloni
At the center of the opening, the “official” response to a statement that had caused discussion in recent days. During the traditional press conference at the beginning of the year, the Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni he had openly declared that he “wanted to work with Fiorello”. An assist too inviting for the showman, who seized the opportunity to transform the Premier’s compliment into an irresistible sketch.
«Okay Giorgia, I’ll hire you. But in black!»exclaimed Fiorello amidst laughter in the studio, playing with his usual cheekiness. But the irony didn’t stop there. Fiorello continued to weave the plot of this unlikely working collaboration, adding hilarious details about how he imagines the prime minister’s future in his team: «I’ve already spoken to her, she doesn’t want to appear on video but will work for us as an author!».
Pennicancea winning formula
This start to the season confirms the winning formula of Pennicance: transform the events of the day into moments of pure entertainmentwhere the border between reality and parody becomes very thin. With Biggio supporting him, Fiorello proves once again that he is the undisputed king of the immediate reaction, capable of defusing the solemnity of politics with a withering joke.
