It's a JEREMY MARATHON day! To celebrate Jeremy and his new adventure (but don't worry, even New York can't get between him and this pod) we've rounded up four of Jeremy's favorite AOAOAOA episodes for a Jarathon - Love is Blind, Clock It, Eurovision, and True Crime Podcasters. Between episodes is some juicy juicy BTS - Jeremy loses his mind over telling time and laughs so much that he sobs remembering the Eurovision episode. Kylie also fights for her life with Paul F. Tompkins and the gang remember filming podcasts in a hotel lobby fishbowl and what we used to think was a “professional recording set up.” We DON'T show you Jeremy's feet or his Subway commercials with Marshawn Lynch that have never seen the light of day but we do show you where you can find both - the Patreon of course!

The dreaded second spot in the Grand Final lineup has a lot of lore surrounding it, spoken only in hushed tones by those that fear its power. But it turns out despite not producing any winners in 70 years, it hasn't been all bad for those forced to contend with the supposed "Death Slot." We go way back to find the source of the myth, and look at those that fell to the curse as well as those that overcame it.Dimitry's spreadsheet of every Death Slot contestant from 1956 to the present: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/195UrSVGQxLTSqe5UEel6uvSfnV-7h3BZUUcisOYJnl0/edit?gid=0#gid=0Vote for Eurovangelists in the 2025 Signal Awards! https://vote.signalaward.com/PublicVoting#/2025/shows/genre/music Voting ends October 9th!This week's companion playlist: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/7Ev3VwiMW337sFmK1su5Wy 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.

The European Broadcasting Union will vote in November on whether Israel can compete in the 2026 Eurovision Song Contest in Vienna. Under a new rule, if more than 50% of members vote to exclude Israel, next year's contest will take place without Israel. And the vote, expected in December has now been brought forward to November. KAN's Mark Weiss spoke with Alon Amir, an expert and lecturer on the Eurovision and politics and a former spokesperson for Israel's Eurovision delegation.

Can we talk about Trump's culture war, Putin's war on inclusivity, and just about everyone's unwillingness to pay teachers fair wages—and giggle throughout? You better believe it. Nina Lamparski is back in the hosting chair, and strap in, listeners, because this week's show is a *ride.* Our guest this week is the delightful and incisive political analyst Paweł Zerka of the European Council on Foreign Relations. Paweł returns to the podcast to tell us why Europe is living in a Truman-Show-style universe directed by Donald Trump and his international team. We pick Paweł's terrific brain about what our leaders can do to build upon the growing pro-European sentiment (really!) and engage with the US as its peer, not its lackey. Plus: Nina raises a glass of crémant to Luxembourgish teachers, who had what seems to us like a very swanky Good Week. And Dominic awards Bad Week to Eurovision, which seems to be crumbling whilst Russia's Intervision is back and creepier than ever.

How does a country of 10 million people dominate the global pop charts? From ABBA's Eurovision breakthrough to Max Martin's methodical hit-making, Sweden has quietly engineered a kind of musical Stockholm Syndrome: we've all become captives to their sound without realizing it. Listen to the crystalline vocal production and deceptively simple chord progressions in tracks by Lisa, Childish Gambino, and Addison Rae, and you're hearing Sweden's sonic fingerprint so embedded in pop's DNA that it now defines the genre itself. We sit down with pop star Zara Larsson to explore her love letter to home, "Midnight Sun." As she puts it, "I can't really leave Sweden; it's just something that's like a part of who I am," a sentiment that captures how Swedish pop's unique blend of melancholy and euphoria, mirroring the country's extreme seasons, has made us all willing prisoners of Stockholm's musical empire. Songs Discussed Lisa ft. Rosalia: "New Woman" Childish Gambino: "Lithonia" Addison Rae: "Fame Is a Gun" Bleachers: "Tiny Moves" Zara Larsson: "Midnight Sun" Robyn: "Show Me Love" Robyn: "Dancing on My Own" Nirvana "Smells Like Teen Spirit" Brad Mehldau "Smells Like Teen Spirit" Learn more about your ad choices.

Alþjóðlega söngvakeppnin Intervision fór fram um helgina og bar framlag Víetnama sigur úr bítum. Keppnin er andsvar Rússlands við Eurovision, keppni sem á að vera ópólitísk og hampa hefðbundnum fjölskyldugildum. Við kynnum okkur keppnina. Við spjöllum um stórtónleika Birnis í Laugardalshöllinni þar sem hljóð, mynd og ljós fóru fullkomlega saman í mögnuðu sjónarspil. Í dag hefst ný pistlaröð sem nefnist „Ekki slá í gegn.“ Atli Bollason setur spurningamerki við þrá nútímamannsins eftir viðurkenningu og ríkidæmi, hann veltir því fyrir sér hvernig áhersla á frama hefur áhrif á líðan okkar og sjálfsvirðingu, hann pælir í tilgangi sköpunarinnar, tilburðum markaðarins til að fletja allt út, og hvers vegna vinsældir og gæði fari svo sjaldan saman.

The remarks come after pressure from the administration led ABC to suspend late-night TV host Jimmy Kimmel. Mr Kimmel made comments about the Charlie Kirk murder suspect, saying Trump supporters had tried to "characterise this kid as anything other than one of them".Also, we speak to Omar Barghouti who co-founded the worldwide movement to isolate Israel, through boycott, sanctions and divestment; and we head to Moscow to meet some of the musicians competing in Intervision, the Kremlin's counterpoint to Eurovision.(Photo: President Donald Trump speaks to reporters aboard Air Force One on his return from a state visit in Britain, 18 September, 2025.

The recent Vuelta a España bicycle race ended in chaos as anti-Israel protestors made several stages impossible. Turns out, the government is on their side, and now wants a broader boycott of Israel and Israeli products... Will Spain leave Eurovision over the participation of Israeli artists? Will the national team skip the 2026 World Cup? It looks like every option is on the table. Donate to the podcast here: https://expatmadrid.com/donate/
At the height of the cold war in the 1970s, the Soviet Union set up an international song contest to rival Eurovision. It was called Intervision, and like its western counterpart, featured a bevy of cheesy songs, sequins and highly flammable outfits – albeit with a different political message. Intervision burned bright and fast – disappearing long before the fall of the Berlin Wall. But this weekend, with Russia still exiled from the Eurovision Song Contest because of its full-scale invasion of Ukraine, Vladimir Putin is reviving the competition, and the USA is due to compete. In today's episode, BBC Moscow correspondent and Eurovision superfan Steve Rosenberg explores the intertwined histories of Eurovision and Intervision, and the politics behind Putin's decision. Producers: Hannah Moore and Valerio Esposito Executive producer: Annie Brown Sound engineer: Travis Evans Editor: China Collins(Photo: The international music contest Intervision at Zaryadye Park in Moscow.

Watch us on Youtube: https://youtu.be/B2BofINE4pw As Israel's ground operation in Gaza City escalates, Prime Minister Netanyahu briefly suggests the country must become economically self-sufficient — only to backtrack, rattling markets in the process. Meanwhile, cultural boycotts mount, from the Emmys to Eurovision.Yonit and Jonathan unpack the political spin, economic fallout, and the global cultural backlash. They're also joined by Rabbi Angela Buchdahl for our Rosh Hashana tradition — reflecting on moral accountability in Gaza, the meaning of the High Holy Days in wartime, and the challenge of unity in a divided Jewish world.Plus: Yonit joins from Paris, where she sat down for an interview with French President Emmanuel Macron, in which he lays out his thinking on recognition of a Palestinian state — and answers the question: why now?

Neoborn Caveman unleashes a caveman-sized takedown of hatred's toxic grip on our fractured world—from Chinese botnets fueling Middle East rage to Eurovision boycotts turning art into a battlefield. We dissect the "spherical attack" on humanity: plastic-saturated clothes seeping into our bloodstreams, data-hoarding blood banks eyeing your DNA for 30 years, and air pollution blackening icons like Delhi's Red Fort and the Taj Mahal (spoiler: it's not your campfire's fault). But fear not—this isn't doom-scrolling; it's a rallying cry for radical positivity. Learn why almonds slash bad cholesterol for metabolic warriors like us, how Chaplin's Great Dictator speech still slays divisive triggers, and why music—like Sami Chohfi's globe-trotting anthems of connection—builds bridges where propaganda burns them. We champion sovereignty over social contracts no one signed, warn of financial whirlwinds dwarfing 2008, and arm you with tools to protect kids, pets, and your eternal worth. Hatred drains the soul; greatness refuels it. Tune in, unplug the machine, and remember: you're not alone in this extraordinary, ordinary world. Slurp, burp, and rise.Key TakeawaysYou're Built for Greatness: Your unique existence isn't random—embrace it as eternal fuel, untethered from wealth, norms, or globalist gears.Guard Your Sovereignty Fiercely: No registry owns your data—question blood banks hoarding DNA, reject the invisible machine siphoning your soul.Modern Life's a Slow Poison—Fight Back Naturally: Ditch processed junk for God-made gems like organic almonds and green tea; they heal guts, hearts, and barriers against the plastic plague.The Spherical Siege Is Real: From noise-polluted streets to unlivable air turning monuments black, we're under 360° assault—but logic (not "trust the science") exposes the culprits.Brace for Unprecedented Turbulence: Next three years eclipse 2008's bubble burst; thrive without governments by trading, supporting kin, and listening to the good word.Evil Shouts, Good Whispers Louder: More souls are gold than grime; drown bots and agitprop in cat purrs, prayers, and nature walks.Reject the Parasites, Claim Your Throne: WEF, Club of Rome, Shite Gates? Nah—we're sovereign cogs who opt out. History's real lessons (not curricula lies) prove society spins sans their strings.Chapters00:00 Embracing Individual Value and Positivity02:53 The Dangers of Hatred and Division05:47 Sovereignty and Personal Data Concerns08:44 The Impact of Modern Life on Health11:40 The Spherical Attack on Humanity15:04 Anticipating Future Challenges17:05 Health Insights and Nutritional Advice19:05 The Role of Music and Art in Society21:28 The Influence of Hatred in Society26:38 The Power of Positivity and Connection30:30 Cultural Commentary and Social Responsibility34:01 The Importance of Unity Over Division36:49 Recognizing Greatness Within Us38:16 Environmental Concerns and Responsibility41:58 Awakening to True History and SovereigntySound Bites"You were designed to be great...

Bina Bhattacharya is a creative storyteller whose work I've been following for a while now. Her 2017 short film Wild Dances embraced music and cultural identity against the backdrop of Eurovision, while her section in the exemplary anthology film Here Out West, titled The Eternal Dance, is the story from that film that has left the deepest mark on me. Music plays a major role in Bina's filmmaking, and it's another prominent aspect of her feature length debut film From All Sides, with Georgia Anderson's Nina using music to support her passion for dance. This is just one slice of the narrative tapestry that Bina is working with in From All Sides, a drama which presents narratives we rarely see on Australian screens, let alone in global cinema. From the audacious opening which sees wife and husband, Anoushka (Monique Kalmar) and Pascal (Max Brown), engaging in a steamy bisexual foursome, to their domestic lives as parents to Nina and Clyde (Gavril Kumar), and then into the workplace where Anoushka navigates the politics of a support business owned by Toula (Rebekah Elmaloglou). While, on paper, it might seem like there's a lot going on within From All Sides, Bina writes the film like a slice of life. As you'll hear in the following interview, the lived-in perspective of From All Sides comes from Bina herself and her desire to see bisexual stories on screen alongside Australian stories told from a South Asian perspective. This interview was recorded ahead of From All Sides world premiere at the Indian Film Festival of Melbourne, and its subsequent screening at the Queer Screen Film Fest. Queer Screen had previously taken From All Sides to the Marche Du Film in Cannes earlier in 2025 for their Queer Screen Goes to Cannes selection. This is a wide ranging interview with Bina, where we talk about what it means to present stories from Western Sydney on screen, what her creative journey was like to get to this feature film stage, the importance of seeing bisexual lives on screen, and much, much more. To find out more about Bina's work, make sure to follow her on Instagram @binafilmmaker. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
We're talking about the current US administration's war on science through an effective word ban on words in research projects related to "woke" topics such as trans, climate change, autism, and even words like trauma, bias, and woman, such that if they appear in your research article, your government funding gets cut.And to do so, of course we're talking about Radiohead's anti-fascism song 2+2=5, an allusion to 1984 by George Orwell. We talk about the history of censorship, of course the etymology of censorship and ban, and the current events and their impact of scientific communication. Also, we read the list of banned words in its entirety.In the Eurovision segment, we talk about UK's 2025 entry "What the Hell Just Happened" by Remember Monday.

Tommy & Ben dig into the FBI's raid on John Bolton and how Pete Hegseth's firing of the head of the Defense Intelligence Agency fits into Trump's ongoing ideological purges of the US intelligence community. They discuss Israel's criminal “double tap” strike on Gaza's Nasser Hospital, The Free Press's sanctimonious reaction to criticism of their reporting about starvation in Gaza, Israeli Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu's constant moving of the goalposts on a ceasefire deal, why Trump's meeting South Korean president Lee Jae Myung was humiliating for America, Trump's lies and delusions about being a peacemaker, the latest on Iran negotiations, why Australia expelled Iranian diplomats, and Putin's answer to Eurovision. Then, Tommy speaks with Franklin Nossiter, Sahel Analyst at the International Crisis Group, about the complex dynamics in a region where military juntas, jihadists, and foreign powers are all jostling for influence.For a closed-captioned version of this episode, click here.
