We're back with our first episode of the 2026 season as we begin our weekly episodes that will take us from now through until the contest in Vienna next May. Thing is, we don't know what Eurovision in Austria will look like, and who'll take part...

We attempt to explain the latest on the situation, whether member broadcasters will get the chance to vote on Israel's participation, and what happens next?

There's also some news from Albania and Montenegro, some excellent Eurovision song in the wild submissions, and the One Second Song returns!

And did we mention Rewind returns for a special look back at the last time Austria hosted a decade ago?!
