La Zanzara

Alongside David Parenzo, Cruciani is the host of hot talk radio show La Zanzara (Italian for The Mosquito) aired on Radio 24. On La Zanzara, current affairs are discussed with guests including politicians, pundits and listeners calling from home. Over time, the show has dealt with subjects such as satire, politics and sex, with Cruciani often taking controversial positions. Listeners can leave their number and be called back by the hosts. Calls often turn into heated dispute. Traditionally, rock and heavy metal music is played in the background. Some of the listeners calling from home ended up dead or in jail, such as Mauro da Mantova, Giovanni da Reggio Calabria, Donato da Varese or Doctor Petrella.
