Show Notes

With Finland gearing up for UMK this weekend, we meet the founder to discuss the evolution of the competition. He tells us more about how the show differs from others across Europe, and how he goes about selecting the acts to compete to represent Finland at Eurovision itself.


We also meet one of the main contenders to win, rockband Cyan Kicks, while we also reflect on a busy weekend and dicuss Norway's Melodi Grand Prix Final.


And there's still time for a special trip to remember some of the best examples of Eurovision songs in the wild!
