Edoardo del Ponteafter a long time, he fired heavy ammunition at his former friend Mario Pergoliniwith whom he shared the success of Anyone who fails and was his great partner in the radio cycle Which?.
Despite being away from him for many years and not even having a connection, the reporter was a guest on the podcast Burn a patrol carwhich is hosted by Gustavo Olmedo, his former radio companion, and revealed unpublished details about what his relationship with the creator of Vorterix was like.
Together with Pergolini, De la Puente formed one of the most successful duets of Argentine radio and during the 1990s and early 2000s they marked an era, becoming vital for any rock group looking for promotion at that time. .
“I did not go in the great door (on the radio). I was one of those who made the great door. And after that, and all the relationships and problems that have happened, I also had to go down to a very old age. After doing what I did, some people say to me ‘are you nowhere?’ “She began, referring to how she had to reinvent herself in her career.
Eduardo de la Puente and Mario Pergolini in the successful times of “CQC”.
“I’ve been shit from the top of the Manhattan Bridge. Anyone can screw you, it’s something I’ve learned. I don’t expect it, but the disappointments, the efforts, the sadness, the miseries that I ate because they made me a mess that I thought I could never go wrong and to which I gave my best, never. I already know it can happen, “he acknowledged.
And he clarified: “It’s not that I’ve been screwed, but disappointed. Because to shit you, they have to take you into account and the problem is that they don’t take you into consideration. When you get off the radar, they don’t take you into consideration. I learned the difference. “
“And what was that bond with Mario Pergolini like?” asked Olmedo, the bicycle rider.
De la Puente in his dialogue with Gustavo Olmedo, former Rock and Pop partner.
“It was fantastic. We were twenty, the market hit us like a phenomenon. We had all the rock and roll on us, we were doing something we liked. That walked well. We were breaking the mold of the radio every day without realizing it. It was like everything was okay and everything was a lot of fun and fun, “she recalled.
And then he fired categorically: “Over time, little by little, what has always been emerged. For this reason, speaking punctually of Mario, I learned the difference between what a son of a bitch and what is an entrepreneur “.
“The son of a thousand whores if he wants to fuck you, he will fuck you. And it is personal, it is that he has something with you. The entrepreneur, meanwhile, is the one who does not take you into account and you are not functional to his projects, desires or other, “he explained.
De la Puente assured that he was a close friend of Pergolini but today they have drifted apart.
“If you tell me ‘how did Mario screw you?’ No, he did what he had to do. I am collateral damage. Like everyone. The truth is this. His twine career pays off. And his power rush, which has not been resolved and there will be collateral damage. I don’t even think the guy hates me. I don’t think he messed me up, he took me on his assault“, he assured.
In this sense, without qualifying Pergolini, he mentioned what he thinks of him after the great disappointment he experienced after several years of friendship: “If you are a boy who he told me ‘as long as I have life you and your family will never miss anything’ and the next day he is deviating from the trading patternhe’s directing the antenna to the other side, he’s boycotting the networks, he’s making it pointless to sink Rock and Pop, knowing I’m going to sink with Rock and Pop, knowing I’m your friend, he screwed me … if you’re the devil, a businessman or son of a bitch, you have the same responsibility. “
At the same time, it manifested the mismanagement that the former vice president of Boca had when he sold the format CQC: “When you sell the competence in many countries, Juan and I don’t see a burden of all this. When merchandising of Fallthe records, the cups, Juan and I don’t see a single weight of all this. “
“And you can say, ‘You’re an idiot, why did you sign the contract you signed?’ You’re right, I’m an idiot. But if I sign it and I’m an idiot, the guy who writes that contract that leaves me out of something I made up, what is it?he said ironically.
At one point the journalist accepted the situation and put Sergio Szpolski on a par with Pergolini, the entrepreneur who bought Rock and Pop in 2013: “He wore me. Because he couldn’t do anything else. That’s why I say that (Mario) is not a son of a bitch. Because he can’t be a son of a bitch. He doesn’t give him the soul to be a son of a bitch. He looks ugly, he looks like a monster. It is not. He’s a fucking teddy bear and he can’t show it because his empire is falling. So the boy is fine, but if you call me Szpolski or Pergolini, it’s the same for me. “
Despite no longer having a relationship with who was his personal friend, Eduardo admits that he hurt him a lot at the time, especially because he experienced very intimate things with the driver: “One thing made me feel like an idiot was saying ‘for 20 years I stood up for a guy who ended up doing what he did. When they said ‘he’s a son of a bitch’, I said ‘no, you don’t understand’. He was my friend. “
And he exemplified: “He was a guy who I took shelter for a year and a half in my apartment in La Boca. Looking back I realized that I was justifying it from unjustifiable places. It is true that we have defended him to the death. And he had to make sure that he got to the place where he had arrived. “
Eduardo de la Puente talked about Mario Pergolini in the podcast “Burn a patrol car”.
“If we have to talk about his inner circle right now, you have to talk about his family and me. Why We live together. I cleaned up the vomit of the chabón. And because I have known his positive side, his talent and I have also known his miseries and fears “, he added.
Finally, De la Puente hinted that there were very intimate things in the bond that held Pergolini bothered him a lot and that he was wearing down the relationship: “What bothers you is ‘this, this and this’ that you envy deeply because you want to do it and you can’t do it. That I had a band, it bothered him a lot. That the musicians came to the radio to take notes and talk to me as an equal bothered him a lot and it also bothered him that I separated. “
“And I speak of this without rancor, eh. I have learned over time that resentment, revenge, revenge is something that consumes a lot of time and spirit that is not forgiven, but just puts the question in its place. I became a believer in karma, life cares“, he concluded.
