Description

We're back from Malmö and ready to digest everything that went down at Eurovision 2024. In this episode, Conor and Lou are reunited to chat about the chaos that was Eurovision 2024.


Back in January, Ireland voted to send Bambie Thug to Malmö with their song, "Doomsday Blue". Despite facing many obstacles from home and abroad, Bambie Thug did the unthinkable at the contest. Not only did they break Ireland's non-qualification streak, they brought us back into the Top 10! Bambie achieved Ireland's best result at Eurovision in 24 years - finishing in 6th place with 278 points. We'll hear from some of the Irish delegation following this result including Michael Kealy and Bambie themselves.


Switzerland took home the trophy on Saturday night with Nemo and "The Code". Finishing 1st with the jury and 5th in the televote, Nemo received a total of 591 points. This is Switzerland's third win. We'll share our thoughts on Nemo's historic win as the first non-binary representative to win Eurovision.


Plus, it's safe to say Eurovision 2024 was chaotic. We'll chat about The Netherlands disqualification, the double-standards set by the EBU, and what needs to happen in the future to safeguard Eurovision.
