The Eurovision Song Contest attracts over 180 million viewers and has been an annual event since 1956. Despite being such a huge success, the USA has never joined in on the action until now. This year NBC is running their own Americanized spinoff - The American Song Contest hosted by Snoop and Kelly Clarkson. Will it enjoy the lasting power of Eurovision or be a one and done flop?

Joining us today from North Edinburgh, Scotland is Ewan Spence. Ewan is a freelance broadcaster and journalist, with a particular interest in media, technology, music, and the arts. He has been the UK radio commentator for Junior Eurovision since 2013, and the US radio commentator for the Eurovision Song Contest since 2018. Ewan co-founded Eurovision Insight (escinsight.com) in 2010 and under his editorship it has grown to become an influential force in the world of the Eurovision Song Contest. He hosts its weekly Insight News podcast, the annual Juke Box Jury review show, and the daily coverage from backstage at the Song Contest every May. Ewan has written three books; including ‘Eurovision: Beyond The Sequins’.
