Anthony and Cesco are thirsty. Oh. Wait. I mean, Anthony and Cesco are thirsty to chat about the songs competing in the first half of semifinal 2 at the Eurovision Song Contest 2024! But before they do, Anthony exposes his trailer trash country boy side and they chat about the simple joys of playing board games. Then it's time to get to ESC as they talk about the songs representing Malta, Albania, Greece, Switzerland, Czechia, Austria, Denmark, and Armenia alongside some of the best songs from national finals that fell by the wayside. Which one of these is Anthony's ride-or-die for the season and who does Cesco want to step on his neck? You've gotta listen to find out!
