What Really Happened at Eurovision? Fazla and All the Pain in the World (Episode1)
Saturday Apr 29, 2023
Saturday Apr 29, 2023
Politics, war and the Eurovision Song Contest. Long before Russia invaded Ukraine, conflict already coloured the competition.
Stars like Loreen, Käärijä and Måneskin were lucky enough to compete in peace. But Fazla - Bosnia & Herzogovina's 1993 singer - risked his life just to get to the contest.
Fazla recounts his harrowing journey out of the siege of Sarajevo to reach Ireland.

Wiwibloggs is proud to announce a new podcast - that goes into the political history of the contest — from the fall of the Iron Curtain to the present — as an arena for cultural diplomacy and the branding of a nation. Beneath the glitz and glamour, what proxy wars are playing out? And what do they tell us about where Europe is today?
In this series, William and Freddy will explore those themes with some very exciting guests telling us their stories first-hand. From running through sniper fire to religious backlash - ‘What Really Happened at Eurovision’ will offer a tell all experience.
Get it wherever you get your podcasts.
