Eurovision Podcast Podcrawl

What is the Eurovision Podcrawl? It's where the Eurovision podcast community picks a topic ("a year when a country first hosted Eurovision") and we all publish our episodes in our own styles. At the end of an episode, we'll point to the podcast with the next episode, and so on, through the summer! Here's the crawl:

  • ESC Insight: France 1959
  • Wind Machine Podcast: Austria 1967
  • The EuroWhat? Podcast: Yugoslavia 1990
  • Niall Points: Latvia 2003
  • 12 Points from America: Belgium 1987
  • That Eurovision Site: Denmark 1964
  • Douze Points: Azerbaijan 2012

Special Guest: Justin Ladia.
