• Episode 88: Death Slot Deep Dive

  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 [email protected].

• Episode 87: Eurovision Songwriting Camps

  Norway's own pop diva Mathilde SPZ joins the Eurovangelists to tell us all about songwriting camps: retreats where aspiring and current Eurovision artists go to brainstorm new songs and produce tracks, some of which become competitors in national finals and even the Grand Final itself. It's a fascinating piece of the modern Eurovision world, so we're glad to have experienced camp participant Mathilde telling us all about it! Jeremy pushes for collaboration in all things, Dimitry can't decide whether to cry or dance, and Oscar & Mathilde trade definitions of "camp."Mathilde SPZ's performance of the Woman Show at MGP 2024: www.youtube.com/watch?v=DMae5H8oMHsMathilde's playlist of songwriting camp songs: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/02pqO9opP7kqM2M2IOf3x3This week's companion playlist: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/0NQGGvJXPhEPK2zgEp2vGx 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 [email protected].

• Episode 84: Eurovision's Greatest Hits (2015 BBC Show)

  As we approach the 70th anniversary of the Eurovision Song Contest, it's fun to take a look at how the ESC was viewed just 10 years ago - some songs remain as classic as ever, while some songs aren't nearly as beloved as they once were (cough_Believe_cough). But Graham Norton and Petra Mede give us a rollicking 90 minutes of ESC hits, and we ain't complaining. Jeremy finally counts himself as a denizen of the Forest, Dimitry has strong feelings about one particular winner's return, and Oscar rediscovers an early 21st century gem from France.Watch Eurovision's Greatest Hits here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3ceireJeEwwVisit the archived website for the show here: https://web.archive.org/web/20150406071646/http://60th.eurovision.tv/Watch Electro Velvet's pre-show performance here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1iCwAUVTVdMThis week's companion playlist: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/6bSicY5EAEgPCQ3NhnB96x 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 [email protected].
