Eurovision Division is a show where we listen to all of the songs in the year's Eurovision Song Contest before that year's Eurovision Song Contest. Host Jeroen has listened to all of these songs before, while his co-host and girlfriend Mira is hearing them for the very first time.
We crunch the numbers, we judge the songs. We crunch our teeth, we judge eachother.

Well, folks. This is a horny episode. By that, we mean there is a lot of brass in the instrumentation for Miki's "La Venda". But yes, we also mean the other thing - that first thing you thought we meant. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
Well, folks, we've done it this time. What is there to say about this episode? We guess how to pronounce the artist's name before listening to Paenda's "Limits" and then, as per usual, we're incredibly open about our emotions. We make jokes, we laugh, we cry, and so on. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
Well, folks, it had to happen at some point. That's right - the "technical difficulties" episode! Best to get it over with quick. Which happens to be exactly how we feel about this song. Yowza! Maybe. Who knows. Listen to find out, cowards.Follow us on twitter > https://twitter.com/EuroDivision Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
Well, folks. We were going to have to talk about our own country at some point. It's time to wake Mira up so that we can stop sleeping on this song. We make comparisons to Belgium's previous two efforts at Eurovision and we ask some hard hitting questions of each other.Follow us on twitter > https://twitter.com/EuroDivision Hosted on Acast.

Well, folks, we've done it. For the first time this season, we listen to a song twice. In this one, we reference two different sitcoms in the span of one minute, and after a series of excellent imitations, Mira tries her best to come up with a woman who is currently in the charts.Follow us on twitter @eurodivision.

Well, folks. We recorded this one on March 8th, and thought it best not to wait too long to put this one out. In this episode, we talk about, well, the usual subjects really. I erroneously thought Tamara Todevska was at all involved in writing this song, which explains why we don't go into the fact that the writing team on this song is just a buuuunch of dudes. Happy international women's day, y'all. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information....
