Podcasts about Eurovision Song Contest

Während dem Eurovision Song Contest fuhr ein Karaoke-Tram durch Basel. Nun teilt die BVB mit, dass dieses bis Ende Jahr auf den Basler Schienen bleiben soll.

Marc Dietrich war mit dem enorm erfolgreichen Schweizer Trio Peter, Sue & Marc zwischen 1971 und 1981 viermal beim Song Contest und erreichte zwei Mal den vierten Platz. Das Leben von Marc Dietrich war sehr abenteuerlich. Nach seiner Musikkarriere begann der begeisterte Berner einen Weinhandel, geriet in Burnout, half der Stadt Bern bei der Straßenreinigung und trat im Theater auf. Wir trafen Marc Dietrich in München bei der Gala der OGAE Germany. Bereits 1971 traten Peter, Sue und Marc das erste Mal beim Eurovision Song Contest mit "Les illusions de nos vingt ans" an, 1976 dann mit "Djambo Djambo". 1979 taten sich Peter, Sue & Marc mit den Musik-Performern Pfuri, Gorps and Kniri zusammen und sangen "Trödler und Co" und hatten interessante Begegnungen mit dem israelischem Zoll wegen ihrer ungewöhnlichen Instrumente. 1981 dann der Abschied der Gruppe mit "Io senza te".Nach der Trennung der Gruppe machte Peter Reber fast endlose Reisen und später mit Musik weiter. Sue Schell hat sich nach ihrer Sookarriere mit Esoterik beschäftigt und Marc Dietrich machte einen Weinhandel auf, bis es nicht mehr ging. Im Interview mit Marco erzählt Marc von seinem abenteuerlichen Leben nach der Trennung von Peter, Sue & Marc.Die traditionellen Fragen am Schluss beantwortet Marc Dietrich natürlich auch. Vom Song Contest 2024 hört er noch Nemo mit "The Code" immer noch gern. Und sein Eurovision-Lieblingssong aller Zeiten ist... er kann sich nicht entscheiden. Aber dann doch: "Eres Tu" von Mocedades aus dem Jahr 1973.Anschließend sprechen Sonja und Marco noch über den Rücktritt des Executive Supervisors des Eurovision Song Contests, Martin Österdahl.In der Kleinen Geschichte am Schluss erzählt Alkis von einem politischen Beitrag, der sich mit dem Zypernkonflikt beschäftigt.  Creators: Marco Schreuder & Alkis Vlassakakis & Sonja RiegelMerci Chérie Online:www.MerciCherie.atFacebook: MerciCheriePodcastInstagram: mercicherie.atTikTok: @merci_cherie_podcastbluesky: @mercicherie.atBitte bewertet uns und schreibt Reviews, wo immer ihr uns hört.

In der Schweiz jagt in diesem Jahr eine Großveranstaltung die nächste. Auf den Eurovision Song Contest folgt gerade die Fußball-EM der Frauen. Heute Abend spielen die Gastgeberinnen gegen Finnland. Viel Aufmerksamkeit für die kleine Eidgenossenschaft, die weit über den Sport hinausgeht. Und weil sich nirgendwo nationale Identität prägnanter kristallisiert als in der Literatur, besprechen wir heute einen spannenden Literaturtipp aus der Schweiz: die Autorin und Dramatikerin Martina Clavadetscher. In ihrer Heimat ist sie längst keine Unbekannte mehr. Für ihren Roman "Die Erfindung des Ungehorsams" erhielt sie 2021 den Schweizer Buchpreis. Heute erscheint ihr neuer Roman: "Die Schrecken der anderen". Und den hat unsere Kritikerin Corinne Orlowski gelesen.

Serhat vertrat San Marino 2016 und 2019 beim Eurovision Song Contest. Mit dem 19. Platz in Tel Aviv ist er bis heute der erfolgreichste sanmarinesische Teilnehmer. Ahmet Serhat Hacıpaşalıoğlu  ist ein türkischer TV-Moderator und Sänger - und mit Sonja sprach er deutschsprachig in Amsterdam.Gleich zwei mal ist Serhat für San Marino an den Start gegangen, 2016b in Stockholm mit "I Didn't Know" und "Say Na Na Na" 2019 in Tel Aviv. Zwar erreichte er 2016 das Finale zwar nicht, wurde aber zum Fan-Liebling und entsprechend war es naheliegend, dass Serhat 2019 wieder an den Start ging. Im Interview mit Sonja Riegel erzählt er von seinen Teilnahmen, von seinem Leben vor und nach der Pandemie. Die Aufmerksamkeit des Senders San Marino RTV hat sein Lied "Je m'adore" erregt und so kam es zur Zusammenarbeit. Zwar reichte es 2016 nicht fürs Finale, es reichte aber für die Chart-Platzierungen in den USA und zu Duetten mit Martha Wash und Helena Paparizou. Natürlich veröffentlicht Serhat noch immer Musik, mittlerweile auch auf Türkisch: "Takan Tanaka" hat er erst kürzlich veröffentlicht. Neue Songs sind in der Pipeline.Die traditionellen Fragen am Schluss muss Serhat natürlich auch beantworten: Noch immer auf seiner Playlist von 2024 ist Slimane mit "Mon amour"Sein Lieblingssong? Da gibt es viele. Aber Imaani mit dem britischen Beitrag "Where Are You" aus dem Jahr 1998 gehört für ihn zu den besten Songs bei Eurovision überhaupt. Und Joy Flemings "Ein Lied kann eine Brücke sein".Im Anschluss plaudern Sonja und Marco über San Marino und die Chancen von Kleinstaaten beim Eurovision Song Contest.In der Kleinen Song Contest Geschichte am Schluss erzählt von einem Duett-Partner aus San Marino.  Creators: Marco Schreuder & Alkis Vlassakakis & Sonja RiegelMerci Chérie Online:www.MerciCherie.atFacebook: MerciCheriePodcastInstagram: mercicherie.atTikTok: @merci_cherie_podcastbluesky: @mercicherie.atBitte bewertet uns und schreibt Reviews, wo immer ihr uns hört.

In der neuen Ausgabe der Speakeasy-Bar beantworten wir wieder Fragen aus dem Publikum. Politisches, Ökonomisches und Kulturelles wechseln sich dabei ab: Wir setzen uns mit dem Solidarismus von Rudolf Diesel auseinander, der typisch ist für die Soziologie eines Ingenieurs. Diesel entwickelte nicht nur den berühmten Motor, sondern auch eine Gesellschaftstheorie, die alle Widersprüche des Kapitalismus auflösen wollte. Wir sprechen auch über Engels' These vom „absterbenden Staat“ und fragen uns, ob man im Sozialismus noch länger repressive Staatsorgane benötigt. Außerdem geht es um die Besteuerung und die Prüfung von Vermögen: Ist eine Vermögenssteuer überhaupt möglich?Wir geben Literaturempfehlungen, diskutieren über Kitsch und Camp beim Eurovision Songcontest und sprechen über unsere Reisegewohnheiten. Zunächst aber geht es um Oles Auftritt in der Phoenix-Runde und um den vielleicht beigelegten Zollstreit zwischen den USA und China.

Allison Kaplan Sommer and Noah Efron talk about (1) Prime Minister Netanyahu's decision to reinstate the transfer of humanitarian aid to Gaza: why did this happen now and why the hell did it not happen before; and (2) What we learn (if anything) from the fact that Israel won the popular vote in this week's Eurovision Song Contest, and what we learn (if anything) from the fact that Israel came in 15th (!) in the contest's professional “jury” vote, and what we learn (if anything) from juxtaposing the two votes. All this and the sixtieth anniversary of the execution-by-hanging of Eli Cohen, “our man in Damascus”.  Plus, more music of these times. Hear the Extra-Special, Special Extra Segment on Patreon For our most unreasonably generous Patreon supporters, in our extra-special, special extra discussion: Yair Golan, head of the “Democrats Party” (what used to be Labor and Meretz), says that Israel “wages war against civilians” and “kills babies for a hobby”. Well, what can you say to that?

Am Sonntag hat Johannes "JJ" Pietsch für Österreich den Eurovision Song Contest gewonnen. Jetzt ist der 24-jährige Countertenor mit politischen Themen in den Medien. In der spanischen Zeitung El País fordert er für kommendes Jahr einen Ausschluss Israels aus dem Bewerb. Eine Forderung, die bereits mehrere Teilnehmer geäußert haben. Wie die Reaktionen auf die Aussagen sind und ob die Forderung gerechtfertigt ist, erklärt Stefan Weiss, Leiter des Kulturressorts beim STANDARD. Militärexperte Gerald Karner analysiert im Anschluss die militärische Lage im Nahen Osten.

Tommy and Ben discuss President Trump's policy changes on Syria and his man-crush on its president, Ahmed al-Sharaa, what lifting sanctions on Syria could (and should) look like, more details on how Qatar's plane bribe came together, and Tulsi Gabbard's shocking politicization of the intelligence community. They also talk about the continuing crackdown on journalists and human rights activists by Nayib Bukele in El Salvador, the dire–and indefensible–humanitarian situation in Gaza, the lack of any meaningful progress in peace talks between Russia and Ukraine, and elections in Portugal, Romania and Poland. Then, Ben speaks with Dr. Feroze Sidwha, a trauma surgeon who has volunteered twice in Gaza, about his experience treating patients in Khan Younis. Finally, Ben and Tommy are forced to endure some selections from this year's Eurovision Song Contest.

Buckle up for this one. This week we continue to bring you the best of the news cycle from the political to the personal. So is Joe Biden finally telling the truth? We believe he might. A cancer diagnosis is announced just as a damning book comes out about the former president. The establishment consensus is that he withheld the diagnosis until after the election. However we have investigated the announcement and our conclusions may surprise you.And how the biggest crime in UK history led to the biggest cover up in UK history. We have done a lot of work about the UK grooming gangs and this week we are going to interview a survivor. You will hear how the UK police and authorities refused to investigate these Muslim gangs for fear of being called racist.And finally the Eurovision Song Contest delivered a disappointing result for all the Queers for Palestine and River to the Sea apologists but for all men and women of goodwill it was a wonderful, hope-filled triumph of the human spirit … you have to hear this story. And, listen to Israeli singer, Yuval Raphael in her song of hope that won second place. And a new twist on the Comey shell shocker, how his “discovery” of an anti-Trump message on the beach ended in merciless memery via the peanut gallery on X. And where in the world are Ann's air pods?

There's a distinct European flavour to this week's episode and we kick off with our reaction to the UK/EU deal struck on Monday.Has the Scottish fishing industry, once again, been a bargaining chip worth sacrificing to benefit other parts of the UK economy? Given that fishing and farming are devolved matters why wasn't the Scottish government either involved or at the very least consulted on the agreements reached in these areas? Despite the trumpeting of the deal will it always be a sticking plaster over the economic wounds of Brexit?Saturday saw the latest edition of the Eurovision Song Contest. Lesley has always been a massive fan of the event, Pat not so much,  what are her reactions to the inclusion of Israel, the behaviour of the EBU and host broadcaster in apparently censoring the live audience during the Israeli performance, and the claims of massive state intervention in order for Israel to stage a propaganda coup?The British Museum hosted a secret celebration of Israel "Independence" Day. Much of the focus has been on the appearance at it by comedian Jimmy Carr but should more have been made of the speech given by UK Minister for Defence Procurement and Industry, Maria Eagle , on the day that the Labour government was in court defending itself against claims that it had continued to supply Israel with F35 aircraft parts in breach of its own sanctions?ScotLand( sic) Futures led by the Scottish Land Commission has called for individuals, community groups, land managers, businesses and organisations to "help shape a shared vision for how Scotland's land is owned, used and managed". Lesley asks if we need less "consultation" and more genuine action?As we recorded last week's episode the result of the vote at Stage One of The Assisted Dying Bill vote at Holyrood was unknown. The vote was in favour. What happens next?Andrew Tickell article - https://www.thenational.scot/politics/25171496.assisted-dying-debate-deserves-better-bad-faith-politics/We also look at the election of the new Pope and Pat revels in the prospect of a European tour with his beloved Dundee United.

Paul Jordan, whose doctoral thesis about the music competition earned him the nickname "Dr. Eurovision," recaps this year's performances. Plus, listeners share their favorite songs and artists.

It's Eurovision season! We love to talk about what we can learn about language from this international song contest, but even we didn't realise that there was so much to learn. Language choice, language policy, language and gender and metaphor — and all of this has been packed into a unit at Umeå University: Linguistics and the Eurovision Song Contest. Paulette van der Voet and Solveig Bollig are heading up the course, and they're here to tell us all about it… and nerd out with Hedvig besides.

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. Legal reporter Jeremy Sharon and news editor Amy Spiro join host Amanda Borschel-Dan for today's episode. Yesterday, the United Nations-linked Integrated Food Security Phase Classification (IPC) organization said in a “Special Snapshot” briefing that “the Gaza Strip is still confronted with a critical risk of famine,” and that “the entire population is facing high levels of acute food insecurity, with half a million people [one in five] facing starvation.” Israel has accused IPC of a “lack of transparency” with regards to the source of its data, and it said the IPC’s Special Snapshot failed to take into account “the massive volume of aid, especially food, that entered Gaza during the ceasefire.” Sharon weighs in.

Luke Black is a Serbian singer-songwriter who represented his country at the Eurovision Song Contest in 2023, the world's largest live music event, with an audience of over 160 million. Performing his song Samo Mi Se Spava, his set and choreography, with its special effect giant robot, were inspired by the video games he loves. Now based in London, he is redeveloping those ideas from video games and hero films to create a new collection of songs. He tells the BBC's Andrea Kidd why he is going darker with these new songs and how the recent student protests in Serbia have inspired him to write an unusually lyrical ballad. He also talks about his experiences at the Eurovision Song Contest and readjusting to life and work afterwards.

A lot of Americans only know Eurovision via Will Farrell's film, “Eurovision Song Contest: The Story of Fire Saga,” which capture some of Eurovision's over-the-top aspects,  but the history of the annual event actually shines light on some of the biggest cultural, social and political developments in post-World War II European history. In this episode, Paul Jordan, aka Dr. Eurovision, joins Ben and special guest cohost/his wife Kelly Kolar for a conversation about Eurovision's origins, how it's been shaped by geopolitics, and, of course, who their favorites are in this year's contest, which airs live on May 17 at 3pm est.   Dr. Paul Jordan is an expert and media commentator on the Eurovision song contest and the author of The Modern Fairy Tale: Nation Branding, national identity and the Eurovision Song Contest in Estonia. From 2015 to 2018 he served on Eurovision's communication team. You can learn more about him at DrEurovision.com.   This episode was edited by Ben Sawyer.
