Eurovision 2019: Previewing the first half of Semi Final 2

The team is ready for more Eurovision shenanigans, with Michael on the ground in Tel Aviv and Io looking after things back in Melbourne (with the help of In the Studio‘s John)

It’s time for the second semi to be thoroughly investigated, as the team explores all the songs from Armenia to Austria… while Michael gets a tan.

Where should you take your retired robots?

Which song needs 5994 projections?

Which bishe is Io loving?

Find out in the podcast.

And while you’re here, head down to the poll to vote for your favourite of this half of the semi.
