The Eurovision semi-final bloodbath has concluded and morale is low.

In this emergency reaction episode, we immediately unpack the chaos of Semi-Final 2: the shock non-qualifiers, the songs we think Europe got catastrophically wrong, and whether this year’s Grand Final is shaping up to be iconic… or weirdly mid.

Topics include:

The entries we’re genuinely devastated to lose

Why some performances connected instantly while others felt strangely airless
Poland’s staging and vocals
Whether Finland is now inevitable
The “cargo shorts” epidemic
Eurovision production, presenters, and the return of deeply questionable disco tailoring
Moldova as chaos candidate
The songs we think people will still remember in three years
Why Eurovision fans may actually be masochists

Featuring strong opinions on:

Eurovision Song Contest 2026, Poland, Finland, Moldova, Ukraine, Greece, Australia, and several songs we’re still actively grieving.

If your favourite got flattened in the semis: condolences. We’re suffering together.
