  • Needs More Gulick

    This is a great podcast, because where else can you get a heady mix history, Eurovision, costumes, Protestantism, Wimbleton and cats?

    But they are wrong about Waterline v Lipstick and they need an episode about Moldova’s national contest, featuring the kind fever of Victor Gulick.

  • It isn't hard to find Eurovision podcasts if all you care about is this year's show but historical content is seriously thin on the ground. That's where Mark and Danny come in! I was looking for a primer before watching some old editions on YouTube and these guys are brilliant at sketching the story of each year in a fun way. They're really good company even if you aren't a Eurovision fanatic, absolutely invaluable if you are.

  • Two great Eurovision fans

    Dani and Mark are such a great couple and their chemistry really makes the podcast work. They’re obviously big fans so their attention to detail is excellent. This podcast is a walk down memory lane. I don’t like comparing to other podcasts but I love that they play the songs unlike other podcasts that sometimes don’t even mention the artists or their names when discussing Eurovision years past. Thanks guys
