Malbert has embarked on a new project. The well-known content creator announced its launch across his social networks. Red room: destination Turin, a Eurovision themed podcast hosted by him on the podium platform, debuted its first episode this Wednesday. The episode was sponsored by Karina, the Spanish representative in Eurovision 1971.
Red room evokes a twist on the traditional green room of the European festival. The term refers to the backstage area where contestants from every participating country gather during the semi finals and finals of the competition.
Welcome to a podcast where no gossip escapes scrutiny. This is how the format is promoted in a teaser, promising to answer any question, including what truly happened at Benidorm Fest, whether all this glitters with Eurovision gold, and why some artists express strong opinions about the festival.
Among the guests expected to appear are some of the most recognizable names in the competition’s history. In Red room: Destination Turin, these figures will face the most candid inquiries, with Malbert stamping his signature on the show. On his social media, the host shared enthusiasm for the upcoming launch, remarking that hard work sometimes pays off and admitting that the idea of hosting his own show still feels surreal, like a personal milestone.
Malbert will not embark on this journey alone. In addition to new guests each week, he will be joined by Laura Ortiz, a journalist who specializes in Eurovision. Ortiz will direct a section for all listeners labeled euro education, offering insights and context for fans new and old.
Rumors had circulated about Malbert as a potential contestant on Survivor 2022, but he chose to unveil his first podcast project on April 4 to his audience. This move marks a new step in his career following the publication of his books Don’t insult scumbag in 2020 and Damn love in 2021.
