Michael hopped in to the Back Seat to drive Melbourne home and took Fiona along for the ride.
Since he hadn’t had a chance to publish a new podcast thanks to the craziness of the Mardi Gras weekend, he decided to take JOYEurovision to Monday Drive.
Michael and Fiona talked all things Eurovision, including:
- Hungary‘s choice of the very good looking Freddie;
- ManuElla’s colourful song for Slovenia;
- How big Norway‘s icebreaker might need to be;
- A duelling update from Sweden‘s own Melfest, including Fiona’s description of Dolly Style;
- The Polish spat over Michał Szpak;
- How Russia is playing the gays;
- Jüri Pootsmann’s Estonian turtleneck;
- Petitions in Israel;
- Michael’s new French husband;
- The result of UMK; and
- The announcement of Dami Im as Australia’s Eurovision entrant for 2016 and info about her song.
Plus there were a few of Michael’s favourite national final losers:
Suite 16 – Anna-Lee 
Dolly Style – Rollercoaster
Laura – Supersonic
Gušani Brothers – Poom Poom
And something from Australia’s own rep:
Dami Im – Super Love (7th Heaven Radio Edit)
