psa for british podcast fans: a @maximumfun.org subscribtion is increasingly good value; my $10 sub was £8.14 in january, now it's £7.51! i suspect this is not a good indicator for the american economy as a whole, but it does support artist-owned podcasts so why not sign up?

We’re courting controversy with this week’s episode by picking songs we think need to be shelved (just for a bit!) in favor of other worthy songs from the ESC songbook. The main offender? Waterloo. We suggest our own replacements, but feel free to offer up your own! maximumfun.org/episodes/eur...

Psst… to all our MaxFun backers, check your BoCo feed for this month’s But Enough About Eurovision Already. We have a nice long chat about… well, you’ve probably already watched it. And if you haven’t, it’s probably in your queue. It’s a fun one!

We’re going all the way back to the beginning this week, as we return to 1956 with special guest Bridger Winegar to take a listen to the great granddaddy of them all, the very first Eurovision. We’re shocked how many ESC traditions start on day one! maximumfun.org/episodes/eur...

It’s Juneteenth once again, which means we once again have the fantastic Sequoia Holmes of Black People Love Paramore joining us to talk black artists in Eurovision! So many good singers and as a counterpoint, one song that does not pass the test of time. maximumfun.org/episodes/eur...

Eurovision has only ever been canceled once, and for good reason: in 2020. But all of the songs had already been selected, so we had @jordanmorris.bsky.social on the show to talk through our favorites and least favorites, and who might have won! maximumfun.org/episodes/eur...

A gentler, more relaxed episode of Eurovangelists this week, as we reflect on our time in Basel… at least until we get to the Euro Club. maximumfun.org/episodes/eur...
