You can't spell Eurovision OR television without vision, so we're taking a look at a few instances of Eurovision appearing on popular TV shows, and popular Eurovision artists appearing in TV commercials. Some showcase the contest better than others, but a universal truth is if you want to parody Eurovision, you've got to use nonsense. Jeremy hears a Who, Dimitry is a pony no more, and Oscar thinks John & Edward are just being SILLY.Father Ted is available on Peacock, Tubi & BritBox, Doctor Who is available on BBC iPlayer or Disney+, and Emily in Paris is available on Netflix.Monty Python's "World Forum": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XMnx8bffbcIPif Paf Pof from The High Life: https://www.instagram.com/reel/DJwsEv_OoR8/?igsh=anIweDNubGEzeW8wMichalis Rakintzis for Pringles: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=joCD5HPkG24Dadi Freyr for Icelandic Provisions: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/3Mb71o9o1pgSpitting Image for Heineken: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=imYLq_NQtaUKaarija & Mr. Lordi for DNA: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ux2sLPCc7b8Jedward for Registered Gas Installers: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4c8aZbKcjz45MIINUST for regular health checks: https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=1061573378348036&rdid=hGtUgVUMNoOdVNCjCleo for Media Expert: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OvGBHsxGzlYOur MaxFunDrive 2025 Themed Playlists:Top of the Ethnobops https://open.spotify.com/playlist/2XgmR5xfepPxChKq6H5xYL?si=dfc9dfa482bd44c9The Perfect EuroClub Setlist https://open.spotify.com/playlist/4LuAqHVI9uW1vfVwXXqlxS?si=d3d73b02e7b34484How Did This Not Qualify?! https://open.spotify.com/playlist/2DC3am05GWWrNhLrnGjVlT?si=ad732c7bbdd04915This week's companion playlist: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/3R054zOowd6Oi6dZ9iaTK8 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.

In honor of the unjust non-qualification of Red Sebastian at Semi-Final 1 this year, we're taking a look back at some of the songs that make us say, "How did this not qualify?" We get into a little Eurovision history as well as highlighting songs that if not for some twist of fate, might have made it to the big show. Jeremy starts to worry he might have aged out of catsuits, Dimitry reps for his boys who could use some practice, and Oscar thinks that vampires are, in fact, alive.Vote in the Listener Playlist poll: https://forms.gle/h4PZ9u15yaLsGBBp8Watch these performances on YouTube here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s2uiE85oWuo&list=PLd2EbKTi9fyXtvuO83oHkg2BhfYLi466AThis week's companion playlist: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/6DcppmQijCuENFEIN9fKLK 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.

We've finally reached the end of the national final season of this year's ESC, but not without a Super Saturday sized helping of drama! We've got our takes on Croatia's Dora, San Marino's San Marino Song Contest, Portugal's Festival de Cancao and Sweden's Melodifestivalen, and not all of them turned out quite how people expected. Jeremy's ready to have his life destroyed, Dimitry longs for a little more of that schlager-y goodness, and Oscar can't stop laughing at one of this week's winners.Croatia's Dora: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vqB8Kr2lB5YSan Marino's San Marino Song Contest: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GdeSEj1wvHEPortugal's Festival de Cancao (free login required): https://www.rtp.pt/play/p14573/festival-da-cancao-2025Sweden's Melodifestivalen with English commentary: https://www.svtplay.se/video/j16Gnw7/melodifestivalen-the-final/melodifestivalen-2025-the-final?video=visa 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 @eurovangelistspod.bsky.social on Bluesky, or send us an email at eurovangelists@gmail.com.

The national finals keep right on rolling as we discuss Serbia's Pesma za Evroviziju, Denmark's Melodi Grand Prix, and Germany's Chefsache 2025. On top of that, we take a listen to the internal selections from Australia and the Netherlands and see what we think about their chances this year.

At last, a break from the incessant national finals of early February: just Armenia's Depi Evratesil and Iceland's Songvakeppnin this week, along with Azerbaijan's internal selection and revisiting Lucio Corsi from Italy, now that Olly's turned down the offer to go to the grand final. There are plenty of songs left to come, but we also wonder: what's the theme of this year's contest? Jeremy coaches male singers on finding the woman inside, Dimitry demands justice for Birgo, and Oscar has thoughts on the greatest Eurovision lewks of all time.

Didn't get enough national finals last weekend? Well this time we've got FIVE national finals to talk about, starting with Ireland's Eurosong. After that, it's Ukraine's Vidbir, Latvia's Supernova, Malta's MESC, with Finland's UMK to round things out. Five finals means five new competitors in this year's ESC, and some of them have us thinking we might have heard a winner.

Four national finals in one weekend? That's a Super Saturday, Eurovision fans, and it's the first of three in a row. We're talking about Greece's Ethnikos Telekos, Slovenia's EMA, Spain's Benidorm Fest, and Belgium's Eurosong, which means we have FOUR new Eurovision songs as well! We also talk about a particular impression by Slovenian artist Klemen, and despite his best intentions, how he missed the mark. Jeremy has no time for earnestness in 2025, Dimitry just isn't feeling his beloved Benidorm any more, and Oscar knows a 90s jam when he hears it.Greece's Ethnikos Telikos: https://www.youtube.com/live/lLPZMhA8IJYSlovenia's EMA: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sTs3TCyw-hUSpain's Benidorm Fest: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=snl7ZWA9-9gBelgium's Eurosong: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QuoWc3Jy4joKlemen's apology post: https://www.instagram.com/p/DFsrrJPIdpC/?hl=enThis week's companion playlist: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/3nzJ9gzSXZWYHIlBttUtDY 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 @eurovangelistspod.bsky.social on Bluesky, or send us an email at eurovangelists@gmail.com.

National Final Season is about to start its crazy downhill decent towards Eurovision, and we've got the latest one before we're inundated with them.

We finally tackle what might be our second most common fan question, which is: why is Australia in Eurovision? The short answer is they're really good at it, but we've got the full answer, plus Australian commentary courtesy of Lachlan, the president of OGAE Australia, to give us all the inside info on the Aussie acts of the last decade. Jeremy doesn't want tomorrow, Dimitry is weightless in his love for Kate Miller-Heidke, Lachlan is close personal friends with legends, and Oscar is Montaigne all the way.This week's companion playlist: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/3SbgdmkFqy9k9Ok2xNlcgJ?si=RzkMgKKbQsyIjFq4qfO3Tw 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 @eurovangelistspod.bsky.social on Bluesky, or send us an email at eurovangelists@gmail.com.

It's officially 2025, which means it's national final season for Eurovision.
