In today's episode...
G’day, you mob! Guess what? The Aussie English Podcast app is no longer the best way to catch my Aussie-filled episodes. Don’t stress though, I’m still on all the major podcast apps like Spotify and Apple Podcasts. If you love getting those episode transcripts, be sure to check out the Premium Membership at aussieenglish.com.au/podcast
Now, let’s dive into today’s episode! Why the heck do some people say “soccer” and others “football”? I’ll give you a hint, it’s got nothing to do with the shape of the ball. Turns out, it’s all about keeping our different versions of ‘footy’ nice and separate.
Ready for a laugh? I’ve got a hilarious (and maybe slightly mean!) joke about blind people and skydiving. Stick around, you won’t want to miss this.
Speaking of not missing things, let’s dig into the expression “every dog has its day”. It means something good happens to everyone eventually, even if it takes a while. We’ll look at how you can use it and where this awesome expression comes from.
So grab a cuppa, get comfy, and let’s get chatting!
