The episode aired last night on Rai Due of the variety Una Pezza di Lundini conducted by Valerio Lundini ed Emanuela Fanelli proposed an interview with the singer-songwriter Bugo (aka Cristian Bugatti) somewhat atypical.
Quoting Lundini: "An interview that the public recovers on their own, if they are really interested."
In this interview Bugo and Lundini exchange "encrypted" questions and answers by referring first to props and then to social posts, information that can be easily found on Wikipedia and other media.
Secondly, it is up to the audience to decipher the hilarious interview.
We at WelcomeGaming.com have been offering you solutions for the videogame titles of the moment for years.
This time we rolled up our sleeves for something different.
Lundini interview with Bugo. Here is the solution
The answers to the first questions are given directly within the transmission in order to make spectators understand how the game works.
Lundini's first question is written on a piece of paper under Bugo's chair:
Lundini: Hi Bugo, how's life going?
Bugo's answer is found, again as a note, inside the saxophonist Olimpio Riccardi.
Bugo: Well enough for me, and you?
And this is where the real game begins with the spectators: Lundini's answer is the sixth song of the album "What a fantastic story is life" by Antonello Venditti.
A quick search leads us to the album's Wikipedia page which reports the solution:
Lundini: Not bad.
Bugo replies with: Second vignette of the eleventh plate of Giallo Scolastico by Andrea Pazienza. The cartoon in question reads:
Bugo: I'm very happy.
Lundini continues: Caption of the eleventh photo uploaded to VazzaNikki's Instagram profile.
We jump on the profile of the musical group and after a quick scrolling through all the photos published by the band, we finally have the caption:
A post shared by VazzaNikki (@vazzanikki)
Lundini: So Bugo, when did you start your career?
Bugo continues by calling back the first sentence that Emanuela Fanelli said in the last episode after the interview with Fabio Caressa.
For the solution to this part of the interview we went to review the episode of April 27, 2021 available on the Rai Play website.
The sentence is found at 9:09.
Bugo: In 2000, when I released my first album.
The conductor's answer is found in the tweet published by Matteo Bordone on 25 April 2021 at 20:29. A quick search in his twitter account reveals the next puzzle piece.
Lundini: Ah yes, 2000, I remember it. You were born in Rho, right?
Bugo retorts with the sentence said by Nicola Savino during the radio broadcast Deejay Chiama Italia in the episode of April 26 after about an hour and thirteen minutes and six seconds. We went to the official site and listened to the reply at exactly that minute.
Bugo: Yes, but I spent a few months there.
Lundini continues, his next question is the song that brought Giorgia to Sanremo in 1994. We have an answer with a quick Google search.
Lundini: And then?
Bugo's answer is the Facebook post published on the Lo Sargabonzi page on April 26 at 1:31 am.
A quick search on the social network gives us the solution:
Bugo: And then I grew up in Cerano, have you ever been there?
We move on to the cinema.
Lundini's answer consists in the line of Marcel Marceau in the film "The Last Madness of Mel Brooks" (in original Silent Movie).
Marcel was a famous stage actor and mime artist.
In the film, entirely silent, he acts just as a mime.
The funny thing is that in the entire feature film he is the only character who utters a word, the same as the solution.
Lundini: No!
Bugo's next sentence is the third single from 883's second album. The second album by Max Pezzali's group is North South West East and the third single is:
Bugo: How come?
Lundini answers this question with Laura Tonini's tweet published on 25 April 2021 at 15:40 pm.
Lundini: It never happened to me, but I read it written in various places, especially stations.
With Bugo's next answer we leave the internet to go back to the books: it is what Hermione replies in an icy tone at the end of the ninth chapter of Harry Potter e la camera dei segreti.
We have all read about the adventures of the young wizard created by JK Rowling.
How do you say? have you only seen the movies?
Fortunately we can rely on our dearest friend who collects them all in her personal library.
After a phone call we have the singer's answer:
Bugo: Okay.
Lundini changes the subject and proposes the caption of his first photo uploaded to his Instagram profile.
After shaking for a while we find the photo and therefore the caption:
A post shared by Valerio Lundini (@valeriolundini)
Lundini: I know you're a big Vasco Rossi fan, right?
Then Bugo and Lundini answer each other through two Bitly links. For those unfamiliar with it, this is a site that allows you to shorten links and keep track of clicks.
Bugo replies with the link bit.ly/3njeDyM to which Lundini replies with bit.ly/2QVTu1A
Respectively:
Bugo: Yes, absolutely, I'm a huge Vasco fan!
Lundini: Ah! I didn't think you were a Vasco Rossi fan, I didn't think ...
Then Bugo continues, the answer is the song that this year brought to Sanremo.
It doesn't matter if you followed it or not, a quick search on the search engines and we have the answer.
Bugo: But yes!
Lundini continues with the sentence that he himself said as his opening sentence that morning (4/05/21) as a guest by Luca Barbarossa and Andrea Perrone on Radio2 Social Club.
The radio broadcast is available here. The sentence is a bit blurry given that Valerio was entering the studio at the time but it should be:
Lundini: Listen Bugo, would you sing us a piece of the very first Vasco?
Bugo replies with the fourth track of A woman as a friend of Battisti.
For those unfamiliar with it, the solution is always within reach of Wikipedia:
Bugo: Why not?
Lundini, turning to the band with a questioning tone, asks for twelfth work by Cristina Comencini.
Let's search on Google again this time, then on Wikipedia.
Lundini: You don't know her?
At this point the band responds with la "Seventh note".
As a fan of good music, we know the answer very well:
VazzaNikki: Yes!
And always the band continues with the eighth film directed by Vincenzo Salemme.
Let's go back to Wikipedia again to find out the answer:
VazzaNikki: No problem!
Finally, the most difficult: Lundini asks the name of a strong narrowband signal detected by astronomer Jerry Ehman on August 15, 1977 and lasted for 72 seconds.
To answer this we had to google the name of Jerry Ehman and then go to the Wikipedia page dedicated, specifically to the signal.
The answer is:
Lundini: Wow!
The solution to Valerio Lundini's interview with Bugo is thus concluded.
We really enjoyed "deciphering" it.
Below is the complete text gathered:
