Cerbero Podcast
Tribute Illustration
The Cerbero Podcast has become one of the most popular channels on Twitch in Italy.
Its story began in 2018 when Simone Santoro (Dudubbi), Davide Marra (Mr.Marra), and Gianluca Miele (Mr.Flame) created the Cerbero Podcast at a time when podcasts were not as widespread as they are today. They drew inspiration from American podcasts to create their unique style.
Later, Marco Kitano joined as the director, and Dave Raven also became part of the team.
The original format of the podcast features the three team members, each with their own personality and perspective, discussing current topics.
Over time, they have hosted numerous guests, from J-Ax to Parenzo, from Nino Frassica to Michele Boldrini, enriching the show with interesting debates and in-depth discussions on important subjects such as politics, music, and the web.
The interviews have added a unique mix of comedy and hilarity to the podcast, bringing a fun touch to discussions on relevant issues.

The trio of the Cerbero Podcast gained experience in the online world before founding their podcast and their company, Asdrubalini S.R.L.S.
Excluding Mr.Marra, who had not yet opened his YouTube channel dedicated to movie reviews at that time, Dudubbi and Mr.Flame were already known to the online audience.
Dudubbi made himself known through irreverent videos targeting online "phenomena," where he criticized their contradictory behaviors, with one notable example being his video about Capobastone. His channel, called "Youtube fa cagare," quickly gained a surge of subscribers due to his analysis presented in a non-aggressive yet highly effective communication style that clearly highlighted the focal point of the debate.
Similarly, Mr.Flame also had a presence on the web, albeit with a slightly different approach. His videos were characterized by exaggerated reactions, both in language and tone. At times, these "outbursts" made it challenging to fully grasp the content of his videos.
With the arrival of Marco Kitano as the director, the Cerbero Podcast has made a significant leap in terms of production quality, including filming and audio, despite occasional technical issues that may arise

It's not just the direction that benefits, but also the harmony within the group, thanks to their great camaraderie. The collaboration with Dave Raven, a DJ/musician, has certainly enriched the team, as stated by themselves.
Born within the four walls of their apartment, they have grown to have their own studio where they can develop their formats to the fullest

But the Cerbero Podcast doesn't limit itself to the online realm. After the pandemic, they started entertaining the audience with live shows such as Cerbero Party and other events like San Cerbero.
However, the most iconic event that surpasses fans' expectations every year is Cerbero Boscar, a show dedicated to honoring the most influential figures who have been part of the podcast, divided into various categories.

Finally, after years, I had the privilege of attending one of their live shows.
In Milan, during the Games Week, an event dedicated to content creators on web platforms, their Cerbero Party brought together the most famous Italian streamers.
Unforgettable was the entrance of the trio, accompanied by their iconic opening theme.
The event lasted just over an hour, filled with comedic sketches and laughter, during which the audience actively participated and enjoyed themselves alongside their "begnamini."
Not to be forgotten was the performance by Mario Sturniolo and the Merrino brothers, who performed Tiziano Ferro's song, "Buona (Cattiva) Sorte."
