What insights can be gained from the disgraced ESC incident?
Following the outrageous occurrences at the ESC in Malmö, certain individuals describe it as a "disgrace" while others label it as "late Roman decadence." This particular event is one that will be looked back upon as a dark stain in the ESC's history.
Witchcraft incantations, a disqualified candidate, and blatantly disrespectful attitudes portrayed towards Israeli representative Eden Golan: the events of May 11, 2024 in Malmó were both bothersome and disgraceful for numerous onlookers. These disturbing occurrences did not stop there. There was also booing, whistling, anti-Semitism, bullying, and death threats. In an even more shocking turn of events, last year's winner, Loreen, announced that she would not present the trophy to Eden Golan if Israel emerged victorious.
In this segment, Verena and Ronny discuss the music extravaganza that has been referred to as a "disgrace" and a "freak show" by many social media users.

Some have even suggested that Germany should consider reevaluating its role as a sponsor of the ESC due to these occurrences. Nonetheless, the two co-hosts also attempt to draw attention to the positive elements of the spectacle, including the beloved contender Baby Lasagna and the audience's involvement, which resonated with individuals worldwide.
