Mario Pergolini desvela su mentira más vergonzosa
What will Pergolini's new show be like?
During his column on Argenzuela, Jorge Rial revealed the details of the return. "Pergolini returns to El Trece. It will air every day at 11:15 PM with a kind of newscast, a 40-minute daily summary," he revealed on Radio 10.
According to him, the show will be financed by Diego Guebel, the host's longtime partner. "He got him a very important amount of money in dollars. They met all the conditions," Rial stated.
A return full of contradictions
A few days ago, Pergolini left hints on social media about a possible return to television. He shared a story on Instagram that said: "Is it time to return?".
However, in a conversation with a reporter from LAM, he denied everything. He said he doesn't have social media and denied any announcement. "Where, at what time? How are you going to congratulate if you don't know?" he replied uncomfortably.
"TV is dead," but he's coming back
True to his ironic style, Pergolini emphasized that he has no intention of returning to El Trece: "To El Trece? They kicked me out of there. CQC returned in Spain and it didn't do well. Quit the drugs, dude... TV is dead," he shot back.
He acknowledged that the relationship with Adrián Suar has improved. "I like Suar and I was at odds with him for a long time, but now I like him a lot. If he were my boss, I would chat with him all the time," he said, leaving the door open.
