About this listen

In The Shadow Of Vesuvio is the only English podcast that gives you all things SSC Napoli direct from city. Welcome to the individual feed for the show where you can access all of the episodes.


This show is hosted by Napoli fan Henry Bell, who lives in Glasgow and Michele Borelli, who lives in Naples and is a Curva B season ticket holder at the Stadio Diego Armando Maradona.


Every episode Henry asks Michele to paint a picture of the events in the stadium, the city and the feelings of the fanbase in Naples. This means that In The Shadow of Vesuvio often considers more than just football - neapolitan language, culture and, of course, food are often addressed throughout. The aim of the show is put the listener in the city!
