What difference does it make that a Eurovision act had a hand in their song’s creation? This week, we’re talking about the importance of authenticity, and looking at how much […]

With the release of some great collabs between some of this year's (and past year's) Eurovision faves, it's time to take a look at a whole bunch of recent songs by pairs of ESC artists. They might be from the same country, they might be from the same year, or they might have even collaborated before their dreams of holding the glass trophy had even entered their minds, but all the songs are good fun and a good excuse to check in with some favorite artists. Jeremy needs some high-speed kissing, Dimitry experiences an awakening of his appetite, and Oscar wants to take you for a ride.Watch this week's selections on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QNRTEJYCXGM&list=PLd2EbKTi9fyXUVog4esKS8i77l9zXp3I1&pp=gAQBThis week's companion playlist: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/3nA9KxIkUJ3Uw79q2BnlLc The Eurovangelists are Jeremy Bent, Oscar Montoya and Dimitry Pompée.The theme was arranged and recorded by Cody McCorry and Faye Fadem, and the logo was designed by Tom Deja.Production support for this show was provided by the Maximum Fun network.The show is edited by Jeremy Bent with audio mixing help was courtesy of Shane O'Connell.Find Eurovangelists on social media as @eurovangelists on Instagram and @eurovangelists.com on Bluesky, or send us an email at eurovangelists@gmail.com.

Vi talar kris- och säkerhetsberedskap med Karin Johanessen, en av landets främsta experter. Vad behöver alla veta, vem är ansvarig och på vilket sätt kan magkänsla och att tänka utanför boxen hjälpa oss. Det blir även lärdomar från högprofilerade events som Kronprinsessans bröllop och Eurovision. Från det stora till det lilla där vi även tipsar om den digitala säkerhetsutbildning som nyss lanserats - den tycker vi också du ska lyssna på. 

In dieser Episode haben wir gleich drei spannende Interviews für euch! Wir reisen zurück zum ESC 2019 nach Tel Aviv und sprechen mit Victor Crone, der für Estland mit „Storm“ antrat. Außerdem treffen wir eine echte ESC-Legende: Sandra Kim aus Belgien – sie gewann mit „J'aime la vie“ und erzählt, wie sie damals über ihr Alter schwindelte. Und auch Renata Dąbkowska von der Gruppe Sixteen ist mit dabei. Sie vertrat Polen 1998 mit „To takie proste“. Zum Schluss gibt uns Tel Avivs Mister Eurovision, Alon Amir, spannende Einblicke in die Diskussionen rund um Israels Rolle beim ESC.Unser Weihnachtsvoting ist gestartet! Wir suchen "The Winner Of The Winners" - den besten Siegersong der ESC-Geschichte. Alle Informationen und den Link zum Voting gibt es auf unserer Homepage.Victor Crone war Anfang Oktober in der Wiener Stadthalle beim OGAE Eurovision Live und Marco befragte ihn über seinen Auftritt 2019 in Tel Aviv mit "Storm" und ob er nochmal beim Eurovision Song Contest auftreten würde. Erst ein paar Wochen später wurde bekannt, dass er gemeinsam mit Stig Rästa beim estnischen Vorentscheid Eesti Laul 2026 starten wird.Bei der Nordic Eurovision Party 2026 in Oslo hat Sonja Sandra Kim getroffen. Sandra Kim war gerade mal 13, als sie mit "J'aime la vie" den Eurovision Song Contest 1986 in Bergen gewann. Im Interview, das sowohl auf Sonjas Seite bleistiftrocker.de als auch auf ihrem Videokanal abrufbar ist, erzählt Sandra über die Hintergründe ihres Auftritts.1998 trat Renata Dąbkowska mit ihrer Band Sixteen beim Eurovision Song Contest in Birmingham für Polen an. Ihr Lied "To Takie Proste". Marco traf Renata beim OGAE Germany Treffen in München und sprach mit ihr über den Nachteil, vor Dana International die Bühne zu betreten. Mittlerweile ist sie als Therapeutin für Kinder tätig, singt mit ihnen aber auch.Unsere Gäste mussten natürlich auch die traditionellen Fragen am Schluss beantworten:Einzig Victor Crone hat den ESC 2025 geschaut und liebt Tommy Cashs "Espressio Macchiato".Sein Lieblingslied vom ESC ist "Goodbye to Yesterday" seines (künftigen) Duettpartners Stig Rästa zusammen mit Elina Born. Renata Dąbkowskas absoluter Lieblingssong ist der Siegertitel "Amor Pelos Dois" von Salavador Sobral.Anschließend plaudern Sonja und Marco mit Alon Amir, langjähriger Head of Press für diverse Delegationen, und Autor des Buches "Three Minutes of Eternity".  Der Israeli berichtet von den aktuellen Entwicklungen rund um den Sender KAN, über die Bedeutung des Song Contets in Israel selbst. Zusammen erörtern sie die rückehrenden Länder.In der Kleinen Geschichte am Schluss erzählt Alkis von einem Vater/Tochter-Gespann beim Song Contest.

New Liberal budget changes the political math in the House of Commons, as Conservative MP Chris D'Entremont crosses the floor. Mark Carney's government signals it intends to to scrap the oil and gas emissions cap. Growing calls for EU nations to increase air defences after drone sightings force Belgium's business airport to close. US Supreme Court to hear arguments on the legality of US President Donald Trump's unilateral tariffs. Big wins for Democrats in votes across several states. Democrat Zohran Mamdani elected new mayor of New York. ICYMI: Prime Minister Mark Carney's government wants Canada to participate in the Eurovision song contest.

Elias Makos welcomes back Dan Delmar, Co-founder of the content marketing firm TNKR Media and co-host of the podcast Inspiring Entrepreneurs Canada, and Anne Lagace-Dowson, political analyst. It was hyped as a “generational budget,” but did it live up to that hype? Prime Minister Mark Carney tabled his first ever budget yesterday. The budget cuts the luxury tax on yachts and private jets and boosts funding to the CBC while giving them a super-specific new goal: bringing Canada into the Eurovision contest. Is this what Canadians were asking for? The federal liberals are now one step closer to a majority while the federal Conservative are screaming treason towards a former party MP that has crossed the floor. The city of New York has a new mayor. NFL football legend Tom Brady says his new dog Junie is a clone. Would you you do the same?

Whitey and Dan are back in the saddle for another dive into Arnold Schwarzenegger's golden era with their The Running Man (1987) Review, a dystopian action flick that predicted the rise of reality TV and the cult of celebrity with eerie accuracy. It's big, it's loud, it's absurdly 80s, and the boys are here for every neon-lit minute of it.Released in the same year as Predator, The Running Man often sits in Arnie's shadow catalogue, but this week Whitey and Dan make the case that it deserves far more love. The film, adapted from a Stephen King novel (written under the pseudonym Richard Bachman), throws viewers into a violent future where convicted criminals fight for survival on a televised game show, because nothing says prime-time entertainment like watching people get chainsawed on live TV.From the opening massacre in Bakersfield to Ben Richards' first "I'll be back" moment, Whitey and Dan take listeners on a nostalgia-soaked journey through the blood, the banter, and the bad outfits. They break down the stalkers, Buzzsaw, Sub-Zero, Fireball, Dynamo, and Captain Freedom and debate which death scene gets the best (and most ridiculous) send-off. Spoiler: chainsaws and balls don't mix.Along the way, the boys give Richard Dawson his due credit as Damon Killian, the sleaziest game show host since, well, himself. As Whitey points out, Dawson essentially plays an exaggerated version of his Family Feud persona, a charismatic creep who can charm the crowd while stabbing them in the back. Dan draws parallels between modern-day media culture and the movie's grim predictions of audience addiction, fake news, and manufactured heroes, which feel alarmingly close to home.There's plenty of banter too: stories about watching the film with their kids, reminiscing about the VHS days, and of course, a classic tangent on Australian childhoods versus American movie myths. Whitey marvels at Arnie's physical prime, the perfect blend of muscle and movie-star charm, while Dan compares the Austrian Oak's 1987 aesthetic to "a bag of walnuts, Arnie" in Predator. They even give props to the underrated soundtrack by Harold Faltermeyer and the bold (if slightly confusing) set design that feels part Blade Runner, part Rollerball fever dream.The Film School for F-Wits segment delves into dystopian cinema, with Dan running through ten classics that share DNA with The Running Man, including Demolition Man, Gattaca, Children of Men, and 1984. Expect tangents, trivia, and typical Morgs-level shade directed at absent co-hosts.As always, the boys bring the laughs with The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly. The good? Arnie's comedic timing and Richard Dawson's deliciously slimy performance. The bad? The script's dodgy one-liners, including the immortal “Subzero… now plain zero." The ugly? The shiny Lycra jumpsuits that make everyone look like they've escaped from a Eurovision rehearsal.It's vintage Born to Watch: irreverent, nostalgic, and filled with 80s love. Whether you're an Arnie completist or just here for the banter, this episode proves that The Running Man still runs circles around most modern action flicks.JOIN THE CONVERSATIONShould The Running Man be ranked among Arnie's all-time classics? Did this 1987 gem actually predict the rise of reality TV? Is Richard Dawson the sleaziest game show host in movie history?Listen now on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or at BornToWatch.com.au#TheRunningMan1987Review #BornToWatch #ArnoldSchwarzenegger #80sAction #SciFiClassic #MoviePodcast #FilmReview #StephenKing #DystopianMovies #CultCinema

If 1956 was the Eurovision first started, then 1957 is the year it really started to figure out what it was, says Steven, as he deep dives into the the 2nd Annual Eurovision Song Contest.It was a year when precedents were set, when rules were tested, and when the scoreboard was just Dave the Intern changing numbers on the big board, nervously sweating because he said he passed it at school but he actually preferred drama, and now he's doing quick maths live to the whole of Europe.Spoiler alert: Dave smashed it..Theodor Andrei - ‘D.G.T.

It wouldn't be a Halloween episode without an extra spooky guest, so we've got the winner of Season 2 of the Boulet Brothers' Dragula, Biqtch Puddin', on the show to talk all things creepy (both meanings).

Los aficionados a las ucronias suelen afirmar que, si Hitler hubiera entrado en la Academia de Bellas Artes, hoy no habria documentales de la Segunda Guerra Mundial. Y si Churchill no hubiera suspendido el examen militar y hubiera acabado en un cuartel remoto, lo mismo hoy hablariamos aleman. De igual manera, si Stalin hubiera seguido en el seminario, habria sido sacerdote en Georgia y no habria habido gulag. Quien sabe lo que habria pasado si Napoleon hubiera acabado como notario en Corcega, si Lenin hubiera conseguido un empleo en Zurich o si Mao hubiera triunfado en la poesia...Salvando las distancias, muchos nos hemos preguntado que habria sucedido si Marengo, el grupo de musica melodica en el que Carlos Mazon era vocalista, hubiera sido seleccionado para Eurovision, evento al que concurrio sin lograr clasificarse; que hubiera sucedido si finalmente se hubiera consolidado en los escenarios...Dice Jabois que lo unico que se recordara dentro de cien anos sera la factura del Ventorro y el paseo por el parking. Seguramente ni eso. A lo mejor dentro de cien anos nadie recuerda ni lo que era un parking. Pero hay algo que si perdura: la certeza de que lo peor que puede decirse de un politico cuando todo se ha dicho es que habriamos estado mejor si nunca se hubiera metido en politica.Ser feliz es ignorar, y nosotros ignoramos los desastres que se evitaron porque cierta gente no se metio en politica. No nos hagamos dano.

Listen, we all love the Eurovision Classics: Waterloo, Love Shine A Light, etc. But sometimes these songs get a little overexposed, and that's when they need a few years to cool off in the Eurovision Vault. We take a look at a few songs that could use a rest as interval acts or medley choices, and offer up some replacements that might sound a little fresher to the ears of the discerning ESC fan. Jeremy's making a good living on the wages of love, Dimitry reveals his all-time Eurovision crush, and Oscar's shouting Hallelujah.

Fáilte ar ais chuig eagrán nua de Ar An Lá Seo ar an 22ú lá de mí Dheireadh Fómhair, liomsa Lauren Ní Loingsigh. I 1980 bhí triúir fear sa chúirt ar triail do dhúnmharú de Gharda I Ros Comáin. I 1993 tháinig sé amach go mbeadh an plean forbairt don rialtas leis an chostas 20 billiúin punt, laghdaithe go 16 billiúin punt I 6 bhliain. I 1980 tháinig sé amach gur cheannaigh sreang ollmhargaí Quinsworth an t-ionad siopadóireachta in Inis. I 1999 tháinig gaineamh ón Sahara agus an Spáinn agus bhí sé sin an fáth a raibh a lán dath meirg ar carr in Inis. Sin Meat Loaf le I'd Do Anything For Love – an t-amhrán is mó ar an lá seo I 1993. Ag lean ar aghaidh le nuacht cheoil ar an lá seo I 1999 tháinig sé amach go raibh Sinéad O'Connor ag iarradh eaglais a cheannach – áit a oirníodh ina gCaitliceach í. Bhí an eaglais ar dhíol do 70 míle punt. I 2005 tháinig sé amach go raibh Waterloo ó ABBA an t-amhrán is fearr ón Eurovision riamh. D'fhéach daoine ar seó speisialta I 31 tír timpeall an Eoraip agus bhí vótáil ag dul ar aghaidh chun ceiliúradh a dhéanamh do 50 bhliain. Agus ar deireadh breithlá daoine cáiliúla ar an lá seo rugadh aisteoir Jeff Goldblum I Meiriceá I 1952 agus rugadh aisteoir Christopher Lloyd I Meiriceá ar an lá seo I 1938 agus seo chuid de na rudaí a rinne sé. Beidh mé ar ais libh amárach le heagrán nua de Ar An Lá Seo. Welcome back to another edition of Ar An Lá Seo on the 22nd of October, with me Lauren Ní Loingsigh 1980: 3 men facing charges of the capital murder of a Garda in Roscommon was on trial before the special criminal court. 1993: The governments much valued £20bn National development plan will be worth only £16bn or less in six years 1980: The Quinsworth supermarket chain has bought the Ennis shopping center. 1999: Sands from the Sahara or the high plateaus of Spain were probably responsible for the light coating of rust coloured deposits in vehicles in Ennis That was Meat Loaf - I'd Do Anything For Love – the biggest song on this day in 1993 Onto music news on this day In 1999 It was reported that Sinead O'Connor was attempting to buy the church where she was ordained into the Catholic sisterhood. The church was on the market for £70,000. 2005 Waterloo by ABBA was voted the best song in the history of the Eurovision Song Contest. Viewers in 31 countries across Europe voted during a special show in Copenhagen to celebrate the annual event's 50th birthday. And finally celebrity birthdays on this day – actor Jeff Goldblum was born in America in 1952 and actor Christopher Lloyd was born in America on this day in 1938 and this is some of the stuff he has done. I'll be back with you tomorrow with another edition of Ar An Lá Seo.

The European Broadcasting Union has postponed its plan to hold a membership vote to decide if Israel's broadcaster KAN will be allowed to compete in next year's Eurovision. While it remains unclear if the vote will still happen, it doesn't fully resolve how the EBU got to this point in the first place. We'll take a closer look at other times the EBU's non-political stance has been tested and see what lessons can be applied going forward.

It’s probably the most famous Eurovision song of all time (sorry ABBA) – Domenico Modugno’s “Nel blu, dipinto di blu” – aka “Volare” – has captured the hearts of listeners […]

The UK's 2006 Eurovision entry was a song called "Teenage Life," which placed 19th. But what placed far higher in our hearts is the incredible BBC3 documentary Daz's Eurovision about the man, the myth, the legend, Daz Sampson. It's a veritable Spinal Tap's worth of hilarious moments, bizarre musical connections, and at least one moment where Daz suggests he's as good a songwriter as Paul McCartney. OGAE Ireland's president Frank joins us for a very fun deep dive into the doc.Watch (please) Daz's Eurovision here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uko7Rfgu4XwThis week's companion playlist: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/1pbE4upeQ6cJnnLiLcuva3 The Eurovangelists are Jeremy Bent, Oscar Montoya and Dimitry Pompée.The theme was arranged and recorded by Cody McCorry and Faye Fadem, and the logo was designed by Tom Deja.Production support for this show was provided by the Maximum Fun network.The show is edited by Jeremy Bent with audio mixing help was courtesy of Shane O'Connell.Find Eurovangelists on social media as @eurovangelists on Instagram and @eurovangelists.com on Bluesky, or send us an email at eurovangelists@gmail.com.

Are you enjoying this? Are you not? Tell us what to do more of, and what you'd like to hear less of. The Reykjavík Grapevine's Iceland Roundup brings you the top news with a healthy dash of local views. In this episode, Grapevine publisher Jón Trausti Sigurðarson is joined by Heimildin journalist Aðalsteinn Kjartansson, and Grapevine friend and contributor Sindri Eldon to roundup the stories making headlines in recent weeks. On the docket this week are: 00:03:50 Overview Of This Week's Stories00:04:50 Man Drinking Alcohol At City Library Kicked OutA man was evicted from a library in Reykjavík for drinking alcohol in the library's bathroom on Friday. The police said that drinking in the library was not good “library etiquette”.00:10:45 Laxness On His Way Out Of Icelandic College CurriculumNovels by Halldór Laxness, the only Icelander ever to win a Nobel prize, will soon no longer be taught in Icelandic schools 00:26:20 Icelanders Can Now Be Named MohammedThe Icelandic Naming Committee decided on five new names that Icelanders can use this past week. The names in question were Tenchi, Ivy, Ýri, Meryem and Múhameð, which is the Icelandic spelling of Mohammed.00:33:40 Former Icelandic Popstar And Activist Arrested On The High Seas By IsraelMargrét Kristín Blöndal, arrived in Amsterdam this past weekend after having been released from custody by the State of Israel. Margrét, or Magga was arrested last Wednesday along other members of the so called Freedom Fleet, trying to get aid to Gaza by way of the sea. A ceasefire has been declared in Gaza. Also, the foreign minister of Palestine, Dr. Varsen Aghabekian, happened to be in Iceland when the ceasefire was announced.00:39:30 Two Thirds Of Icelanders Think Iceland Should Not Participate In Eurovision, If Israel Is Allow To ParticipateA recent poll, conducted this September, 67% of participants said Iceland should rather stay out of Eurovision next year if Israel participates. Younger people were less likely to want Iceland to withdraw in that scenario, while people from outside Reykjavík were likelier than the inhabitants of Reykjavík, to want Iceland to boycott the competition.00:41:00 The Murder Case That Never RestsIn 1974, two men disappeared within 10 months of each other. These men were named Guðmundur and Geirfinnur. The case led to numerous arrests, and finally long time prison sentences. Much doubt has been cast on whether those charged and sentenced were actually guilty. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------SHOW SUPPORTSupport the Grapevine's reporting by becoming a member of our High Five Club: https://steadyhq.com/en/rvkgrapevine/You can also support the Grapevine by shopping in our online store: https://shop.grapevine.is------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This is a Reykjavík Grapevine podcast.The Reykjavík Grapevine is a free alternative magazine in English published 18 times per year, biweekly during the spring and summer, and monthly during the autumn and winter.
