Wiwibloggs: The Eurovision Podcast

We chat with EMMY at House of Helvetia in Basel. Despite singing about the famed Russian space dog Laika (the star of her song "Laika Party"), she admits to owning a kitty cat. She says that all animals are welcome to her "Laika Party" — but not animals that eat other animals. She also discusses her Irish co-writer, her brother Ereland, and how Ireland has embraced her.

JJ's "Wasted Love" has consistently been near the top of the Eurovision 2025 betting odds since its reveal in Austria. But will this emotional ballad get lost in a sea of jury favourites? Combining Filipino telenovela with Austrian classical opera, JJ has crafted a song like no other this year.  In this episode of "What Really Happened at Eurovision?", Professor Joe Bennett, a musicologist from the Berklee College of Music, tells us about the oscillating vocal effects that take Austria's entry this year from ballroom to club.

We chat with Sissal at House of Helvetia in Basel. The "Hallucination" singer discusses how she is currently obsessed with a man who may or may not know her name; how she can deal with particular hate comments, but will NOT accept people questioning her character; how her two daughters put everything in perspective; what it's like to be from the Faroe Islands; her cooking YouTube channel  @tripleyummy4744  and so much more.

We chat with Australia's Eurovision star Go Jo at House of Helvetia in Basel. The "Milkshake Man" singer breaks down his on-stage prop (it's a giant blender and not a milkshake) where he performs an incredibly quick costume change. He introduces us to his partner, who is also one of his backing dancers, discusses growing up off-grid in the Australian countryside, talks about his former AFL football career, the songwriting process and so much more.
