Episode notes We’ve mentioned pre-parties on the show before, but what are they exactly? This week, we’re joined by Eurovision fan and organizer of the MancHagen pre-party, James Penrose, who tells us everything we need to know about the history of pre-parties, how they get started, and maybe a detail or two about MancHagen.

Episode notes It’s the MaxFunDrive, so we had to bring back our fellow MaxFun host and first ever guest (and first ever returning guest), Dr. Ella Hubber of Let’s Learn Everything! We take a listen to EIGHT internal selections from all over the continent, and once more get authentic British despair at the state of this year’s entry.

Episode notes 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.

Episode notes 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. Jeremy slanders Dimitry’s good name, Dimitry has a bone to pick with Stefan Raab, and Oscar’s suffering from hallululululucinations.
