Who am I?
I'm the co-founder of ESC Insight, one of the longest-running Eurovision Song Contest podcasts in the world. I also produce the commentary for the US Radio broadcast, and as an expert voice in media. 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 starting off the crawl here at ESC Insight, and at the end of our episode, we’ll introduce you to the next podcast on the crawl. Head there for the next episode, and they’ll introduce you to the next podcast. Just like that, you’ll have some Eurovision all summer long! How each podcast addresses the topic is entirely up to them – half of the fun of this project is to help you experience the wider Eurovision podcast community and everyone’s wildly different styles. All the episodes and podcasts can be found at https://linktr.ee/eurovisionpodcrawl/
