We'll be covering the famously terrible 2008 Eurovision Song Contest in a livestream later this year, but we thought we ought to cover the second place winner (and Oscar's favorite!), 1991's ESC at Cinecittà in Rome. And since we couldn't keep this many mediocre ballads to ourselves, joining us for this highly dysfunctional edition of Eurovision is the hilarious writer & comedian Corin Wells. (Dropout, The Amber Ruffin Show). Jeremy can't believe they let this sax solo slide, Dimitry needs more people to cover Amina, Corin's playing her first Eurovision on Expert difficulty, and Oscar traces the origins of all of 91's choreo to an unlikely source.
