James Stephenson and Samantha Ross kick off our daily podcasts from Vienna. They discuss the thirty-five broadcasters who have entered, pick out some favourites from Semi Final, and speak to the performers about anything except the Song Contest.

Allora! James Stephenson and Dude Points bring their journey in Italy to a close as they analyse the Festival della Canzone Italiana - right there on the train out of Sanremo and into France.

Ciao from Sanremo, this is Alloracast! James Stephenson and Dude Points are here with your preview for one of the most exciting nights in the Eurovision Song Contest calendar - the final of the Festival di Sanremo.

On today's Alloracast, James and Dude have another Top 5 from Thursday's performances to analyse, as the competition begins to take real shape ahead of Saturday's final.

James and Dude look at last night's Top Five from the first batch of fifteen performers, and see which songs surprised and which were surprise omissions. They'll also look forward to tonight's third show, in the daily Alloracast!
