Episode 133: Eurovision Asia - Malaysia & Rhythm of Bhutan

Despite a false start in 2025, Eurovision Song Contest Asia looks like it's really happening in 2026! The proof? A full-on national final from Bhutan called Rhythm of Bhutan that has everything we love about national finals from small nations, plus a powerhouse internal selection from Malaysia. We talk about all five competitors in the final and what songs are likely to do well in November's contest. Jeremy is always happy to see college kids getting weird, Dimitry gets some rock with a distinctive Bhutanese twist, and Oscar would hire one dancer to do anything.
