In this episode:

Eurovision 2027 is going to Burgas: First reactions to Bulgaria's Black Sea host city and what a smaller, seaside Eurovision might look like.
Eurogull vs. Kapi: Burgas hasn't even hosted yet and local institutions are already proposing unofficial mascots. We consider the merits of an enormous puppet seagull versus a remarkably chill capybara.
Eurovision Asia is underway: The inaugural contest heads to Bangkok in November, national selections have begun, and we listen to what's emerging from the new competition.
Where are Japan, China and India? Three of Asia's biggest music and entertainment markets are absent. We talk about why—and whether Eurovision Asia can export the Eurovision format without simply copying European Eurovision culture.
The missing Eurovisions: The EBU is asking fans around the world for help locating complete recordings of the 1956 and 1964 contests.
Queen Elizabeth, Dancing Queen: According to longtime aide Angela Kelly, Queen Elizabeth II loved ABBA's Dancing Queen—and would sing and dance along while listening to Terry Wogan in the morning.

• Plus: Eurovision merch, royal Eurovision tastes, giant British seagulls, Mongolian throat singing and quite a few tangents.
