even funnier if you speak the lingo

Could someone translate at least the opening part of this video for me? I assume the guy is speaking Italian.
This is why podcasting anything but music sucks; No babelfish for you!

i can officially report that adrian has listened to the broadcast. he defines it as comprising "various forms of swearing". He will report back shortly with a full translation no doubt.

This is excellent. He starts of with a lot of "porco Dio" / "Dio porco" which, literally, is "Pig God". It's mostly blasphemous - "Dio cane" (God dog) and towards the end "Dio schiffoso cane" (God disgusting dog). There's also a couple of references to Mary - "Madonna puttana" (Our Lady whore) and other stuff.
It's funny how swearing varies from place to place - much more of an emphasis on blasphemy in Italian than in English, I think. Our swearing seems to be more tightly connected with sexual taboos, rather than religious.
Reminded me of the noises I used to hear come from Antonio's room when he was playing football on his computer.

He also says "va fa in culo" and "va fa in culo porco dio" - "go do it in the ass"
