Political stage? Eurovision song contest met with Israel-Gaza war protests

Kind of a common thread to our show this week: after the massive party in Marseille to welcome the arrival of the Olympic flame, time to turn our gaze north for what’s also billed as another « it’s a small world after all » feelgood celebration.  Come in Malmö, host of the 2024 Eurovision Song Contest, that heart-shaped ode to kitsch where pop contestants do battle with tremolos, glitter and kicks. But just as politics bleeds into sports, it bleeds into music.
