I'm Rob Holley, a self-confessed Eurovision super fan who's been writing about the Song Contest for the last 8 years. Though Rotterdam 2020 has been cancelled I've continued to interview the acts and people connected to the world's biggest entertainment show. That's what this podcast is: a collection of the interviews that I would have done had the contest gone ahead as planned. #EurovisionAgain.
