Episode 63: Eurovision 1988 Recap

Before we go to Switzerland for Eurovision 2025, we've got to go back to the last time they won: 1988, in Dublin Ireland. The Eurovangelists dive into a VERY 80s ESC with special guest Danielle Radford of MaxFun's Tights and Fights, and is there ever a bounty of Irish postcards and oversized shoulder pads to enjoy. Jeremy is bored to tears by his countrymen, Dimitry sees one of his all-time faves, Oscar can't get enough of his uncles at the wedding, and Danielle is fascinated by one word: Mangup.
