Star Spangled Eurovision

Join Alix, Max, and Bart as they discuss the entries performing in the first half of the first Semifinal at this year’s Eurovision Song Contest. In this episode, Max finds out his favorite is a little problematic, Bart and Alix can’t handle basic poetic devices, and we all yell at our intern.

Also, this was recorded before we figured out a name. Just FYI.
