Episode 24 is HERE — and it is an absolute BANGER of a week for Eurovision 2026. We are talking eleven countries, elevenstories, and more drama than a Eurovision Grand Final interval act. Strap in.

Sweden has spoken — and they spoke LOUDLY. FELICIA wins Melodifestivalen 2026 with "My System" in a unanimous result, topping both the jury and the public vote. France has selected 17-year-old Monroe with "Regarde!" — and the bookmakers have already made them second favourites to win the whole contest. THE WHOLE CONTEST. Romania is bringing "Choke Me" to Vienna. Yes, really. And it'sdeeper than you think.

San Marino has done something truly iconic - they're sending SENHIT BACK. The queen of Rotterdam 2021 is returning with"Superstar," and we are not calm about it. Poland has given Alicja Szemplińska her long-overdue Eurovision moment after COVID cancelled her 2020 dream. Portugal is going full folk soul with Bandidos do Cante and "Rosa".

And the UK? The UK released LOOK MUM NO COMPUTER's song which is called "Eins, Zwei, Drei" and has PROMISED us the wildest performance in Eurovision history. We are obsessed. We also cover Israel's Noam Bettan releasing "Michelle," Montenegro's Tamara Živković dropping a revamped "Nova Zora", Azerbaijan announcing Jiva as their representative, and Czechia confirming Daniel Žižka for Vienna.

Vienna is calling. 🎶

In Episode 23 of Pod it Away, Eurovision 2026 truly ignites — and two countries dominate the conversation.

Finland sends a clear message after UMK 2026: they’re not just participating — they’re aiming for the trophy. We break down Linda Lampenius & Pete Parkkonen’s televote landslide with “Liekinheitin,” analyse its jury potential, and ask the big question: could this be Finland’s winning year?

Meanwhile, Australia enters the race with serious star power. SBS internally selected Delta Goodrem with “Eclipse,” officially making her the biggest name competing in Eurovision 2026 so far. We discuss what her experience, credibility and staging potential could mean for Vienna — and whether Australia just changed the dynamics of the competition.

Italy delivered pure emotion at Sanremo 2026, where Sal Da Vinci triumphed with “Per sempre sì” — a classic, heartfelt entry that may or may not have completely stolen Kostas’ heart (no bias… allegedly).

From Norway’s fresh new energy — with insights from George of Europe Corner — to Serbia’s bold metal statement, Germany’s carefully calculated reset, Lithuania’s ever-reliable staging intelligence and Bulgaria’s polished pop precision, we break down every angle of a Super Saturday that truly reshaped the race.

Eurovision 2026 is no longer taking shape. It’s accelerating.
