BONUS EPISODE- Is Eurovision REALLY non-political?

If the EBU had a catchphrase, it might be something along the lines of "Eurovision is not political". Every year they insist that politics should not be involved in the song contest, that it's all about the performers and the music. But is that really true? Or are politics everywhere in Eurovision? And how do these politics (or maybe the lack of them) impact the way that Israel's participation has been handled this year? I spoke with Associate Professor Jess Carniel to find out.

Correction: Morocco has recognised Israel as a country since 2020.

Theme Song: Max Dary

Outro Song: JOJ BOUK
