In the only English language Napoli podcast direct from the city, Henry and Michele are back from their holidays and dive straight into Dimaro reaction. Michele gives the città perspectives on the mercato comings and goings and gauges the mood of Naples ahead of the new season. There’s also time for conversations about gelato and which ex Napoli player is most fond of good times in night spots. A classic ITSOV mixture of the sublime and the ridiculous.

This week's episode is a game of two halves. Henry and Michele begin with a serious and nuanced discussion about ADL and why he remains so unpopular within the city. Then, our alternative season awards involve plenty of pasta, scooter journeys and imagined trips to Castel dell’Elmo with Ciro and Kat Mertens.

WELCOME TO NAPOLI, DR. BELL!!!

In this special episode Michele interviews Henry for a change as they talk about meeting in person for the first time last Sunday! Please enjoy the "In Stadium" perspective of the historic moment in the club as Lorenzo Insigne and Faouzi Ghoulam said goodbye to the home fans. Henry opens up about the experience of being a long distance Napoli fan and coming to the stadium for the first time. Much emotion all round! We'd say Henry's Napoli experience was BELLissima!!! ;)

In The Shadow Of Vesuvio explores all things SSC Napoli in English and direct from the city itself.

We explore the disaster of #EmpoliNapoli from the perspective of Michele watching it with his girlfriend’s dad. It was the first time they had watched a game together!

We try to cheer ourselves up by also exploring Napoli taking up another sport and go deep on how this team can find more cazzimma like the best SSC Napoli teams from the recent past.
