"After the tour that saw us take the stage this autumn, we are looking forward to returning to the stage with new cases to tell." - Martina and Federica
Born from the friendship between Martina and Federica, Bouquet of Madness has quickly conquered Italian listeners, reaching the top of the charts of the best podcasts on the main listening platforms. Bouquet of Madness - for friends BOM - talks about the strangest, most absurd and mysterious crime cases in Italy and around the world, without solutions but with many questions: in each episode, Federica and Martina tell us two stories with a pleasant vein of black humour, bringing to light the absurdities of human behaviour. To date, Bouquet of Madness has numerous episodes, a spin-off - MiniBom, available by subscription only on Spotify - as well as a series of appearances at festivals and events including Lucca Comics. Their way of telling stories and creating catchphrases such as the human labrador, the wafflers and bello* has gathered around them a fierce fanbase of BOMers who can't wait to meet them live.
The first gem of an idea popped up several months before the actual realisation of the first episode and it was just a wish, a promise: 'Wouldn't it be nice to have a project together?Both Federica and Martina follow numerous podcasts, and the choice of theme was also immediate, despite the fact that the two approach true crime differently: Martina is methodical and likes to immerse herself in the dark, Federica does it as a counterphobe and the thing she is most afraid of in the world is serial killers.
The title of the podcast is inspired by the monologue of Ophelia's madness in Shakespeare's Hamlet, in which the Bouquet of Madness is described: ""There is sense even in her delirium; thoughts and remembrances conform. Says Laertes, as Ophelia illustrates the flowers with which she has adorned her hair on the way to madness."
