Buckle up, because the Eurovision season has shifted into overdrive and we're officially drowning in glitter and key changes! In today's episode, we're tackling the massive wave of entries that have flooded the airwaves since Lithuania kicked things off with Lion Ceccah's "Sólo quiero más." We're diving deep into the high-energy vibes of Norway's Jonas Lovv with "Ya Ya Ya" and the heavy emotional weight behind Poland's Alicja with "Pray." The conversation also explores the traditional textures of Portugal's "Rosa" by Bandidos do Cante and the bold, unapologetic sound of Romania's Alexandra Căpitănescu in "Choke Me."The party continues as we look at the return of the ultimate Eurovision veteran for San Marino, Senhit, and her upbeat entry "Superstar," alongside the sleek, polished pop production of "My System" by Sweden's Felicia. We also spend some time with"Kraj mene" from Serbia's Lavina and the experimental but fun approach of the United Kingdom's Look Mum No Computer with "Eins, zwei, drei." And we cannot forget in our marathon coverage the French sounds of Monroe's "Regarde" and the recently unveiled Azerbaijani entry, "Just Go" by Jiva.Cookie points (in our hearts!) for subscribing on⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠Spotify⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, ⁠⁠⁠Apple Podcasts⁠⁠⁠ or ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠!

The mindset of a poker pro can now be applied outside of a narrow game.In Episode #517 of 'Meanderings', Juan & I discuss: Annie Duke's 'Thinking In Bets' book and how the poker mindset can reshape everyday decision-making, why focusing on process over outcomes matters, how using AI as a sounding board revealed hidden risk-taking in my own finances, testing assumptions in small experiments before going all-in, how arbitrage opportunities appear with prediction markets and why clarity on desired outcomes should drive bet-sizing. No support for this week so no beanie either. Also my laptop died suddenly hence the rather curt cut off at the end. Luckily we were almost done anyway phew.

Look back at JB's first week on the Rush Hour for 2026, as he and Billy chat to Collingwood's Ned Long, unearth some audition tapes for Australia's Eurovision entry, ask what you did for the first time, speak to Scotty James, Richmond's Jacob Hopper, and Kyren Williams & Kevin Dotson from the LA Rams. Finally, we pick out Billy's best joke for the week.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Greg Watts• British - Born in Reigate, UK.• DWB Publishing https://www.dwbmusicgroup.com• Greig runs a mentorship program.• He partnered with a couple of song writers.• Keeping The Dream Alive is his book.• Coaches a female football team.• The book is about perseverence and overcoming rejection in the music business.• Howard Jones, Madness, Thomas Dolby. • Greg gravitated yo the keyboards in music.• He worked at a bank for 9 years.• He's had a lot of hits in the Japanese market (JPop).Questions 1. What is the “brutal truth” about the music business?2. You cite Herbie Hancock's “Axel F” as an inspiration. Is your sound rooted in the music of the 80's?3. It's great to use the plethora of tools available to songwriters today. But monetizing is an entirely different battle. How does an artist get compensated for his work today?4. Was there someone who mentored you in music?5. Can you name a song that not only impacted you, but actually changed the world?6. What can a young artist do to implement the structure and discipline required realize their dreams in music? 7. How do handle a situation when a student is just not a fit for mentorship?8. You have had 16 artists perform at Eurovision over the last ten years. What is Eurovision?9. What did you learn about yourself during the writing of this book that you did not know before?10. In your book you show a snapshot of a report card that read “Greg plods along in music without much enthusiasm or interest”. Was that a motivator or catalyst for you moving forward?11. Philopsical Question of the podcast: When we landed on the moon the astronauts listened to “Fly Me to the Moon” by Frank Sinatra. When we land a man on Mars, what will be the theme for the astronauts? (Madness “One Step Beyond”?)Pop music that MTV made famous1. Madness (Our House) vs Thomas Dolby (Blinded Me with Science)2.

Episode Title: "Bang Bang A-Boom!" - Season 12 Retrospective & Big Finish Review - Patreon Exclusive #85 SPECIAL MAIN FEED RELEASE - PATREON SHOWCASE DOCTOR WHO THEME MONTAGE: The Tardis Elliot Video: John sent Jim a montage from Tardis Elliot (a fan who makes trailers of Doctor Who episodes) featuring title opening sequences. John's Reasoning: "This is the last, with Tom Baker, the last hurrah for the original version of the Doctor Who theme. After this, we're going to start seeing the variations. I thought, give me a little sneak peek at what's in store for you if you continue on into the new series and all." NO COMIC THIS WEEK: Jim: "What a relief that was. It's terrible for me to say that, but what a relief. It was nice having a break. It really was." SEASON 12 RETROSPECTIVE: SEASON AVERAGES: Jim: 10.2/15 John: 11/15 Overall Average: 10.6/15 Jim: "Some of that is nostalgia for you." John: "Absolutely." SEASON 13 SPOILER CARDS: The Three Cards: Ncuti Gatwa Fembots Classic Movies JIM'S CHOICE PROCESS: "How in the world could I possibly pick? I can pretty quickly eliminate Classic Movies, even though I like classic movies. I'm really intrigued by the other two." Fembots: "I'm not as big of a Bionic Woman fan as you are. I didn't watch it regularly like I did $6 Million Man. I know who the Fembots are and I liked that she had a recurring adversary, that was sort of her Daleks." THE PICK: NCUTI GATWA THE REVEAL: PYRAMIDS OF MARS BIG FINISH: BANG BANG A-BOOM! Release: December 19th, 2002 (their second Christmas episode) Writers: Gareth Roberts & Clayton Hickman Director: Nicholas Pegg Doctor: Sylvester McCoy Companion: Mel THE BASIC PLOT: "Star Trek meets Space 1999 meets Eurovision." The Setup: "The TARDIS lands on Dark Space 8 and finds themselves dealing with a whole bunch of aliens who are on the station because the Doctor is mistaken for the replacement commander for the station." The Backstory: "The TARDIS winds up on a shuttle that's transporting the new commander, but it explodes before it reaches the station. They are beamed onto the station - he and Mel - as the only survivors of it." Beamed vs. Transmitted: "They actually say 'beamed' in this case. They don't use the term transporter though. But I think that term was already being used in science fiction before. It's like blasters. I was naive enough to think that blasters came from Star Wars, but in Foundation by Isaac Asimov, the guns are called blasters." THE ELEMENTS: Space 1999: "The Space 1999 bit is the medical doctor who sounds an awful lot like Barbara Bain. She's going out of her way. She's the one doing medical logs like Bain did in Season 2 of Space 1999. Barbara Bain had a very distinctive voice. This woman seems to be placing that same emphasis on it there." Star Trek: "There's a lot of references to Star Trek. You look and you go 'Oh, now they're referencing this episode. Now they're referencing that episode.'" Eurovision: "They got someone who did a dead-on impression of the guy. For years Eurovision was hosted by a BBC presenter Wogan from Northern Ireland. So they have their version being Logan and he sounds just like him. It was cute." THE INTERGALACTIC SONG CONTEST: "On the station, while he's trying to figure out who tried to kill or not try to but successfully killed the new commander, the Doctor's also got to deal with an intergalactic song contest." JOHN'S VERDICT: Worth It? "It's worth a listen, especially if you are a Star Trek fan. And in my case, I had to laugh at the Eurovision spoofing they did." NEXT TIME: Friday (Patreon): Big Finish's "The Ark" - Jon Lucarotti's original story before it became Ark in Space Saturday (Main Feed): Reissue/release of a Patreon episode - Jon Pertwee Retrospective Monday (Patreon #86): "Primarily we're going to be focusing on the comic strips that were on during the break." The Reality: "It's going to be a mix of stuff from the strip and also a comic from the TV Comic Annual for 1976." "And that is our Big Finish for this show!"

The semi-final era has not been kind to Poland. Though the country has done okay at Eurovision the last few years, they haven't reached the heights of their debut entry in 1994.
