Over the summer, a group of Eurovision podcasters are joining forces to create a series of episodes, each showcasing a different year of the Song Contest… but it has to be a year when a country first hosted Eurovision.
We're so excited to be a part of this with so many amazing podcasters such as The Wind Machine Podcast, The EuroWhat? Podcast and That Eurovision Site - you can see who is taking part here: https://linktr.ee/eurovisionpodcrawl. Of course, make sure you're following them all so you don't miss a thing!

OOPS. This was saved as a draft. Should have been public a while ago...
We're a bit late, sorry, but in this episode we have giant golf clubs, half eaten meals and a high octane rescue mission - what could possibly go wrong? Oh yeah, the Mole is still happily sabotaging everything and the candidates are struggling.Niall and Tomas delve into this episode and discuss their Mole predictions.(Please no Episode 7 spoilers - Niall will cry.)
Well, it's officially Eurovision month, which means its time for Niall and Tomas to make their predictions, and its time to look at which acts will qualify from Semi Final 2!If both of them agree an act is going to qualify then they are awarded a niallpoints Certified Qualifier badge! Surely that's better than a glass trophy!
