In today's episode...

G’day legends! Ever wondered what Aussies do that might seem a bit bonkers to the rest of the world?

This week on Aussie English, we’re having a laugh reacting to a video about 11 things the Living Simply in Australia from Argentina found totally weird about living Down Under.

From separate dunnies (that’s toilets, for all you non-Aussies!) and the mysterious Vegemite, to footy fanatics and those crazy school hats, we’re diving headfirst into the quirks and oddities that make Australia, well, Australia. Pete shares his own hilarious takes and experiences, so get ready for some classic Aussie banter.

We’ll also chat about the differences in healthcare, drinking culture, and even how we deal with our unique wildlife (kangaroos on the road, anyone?).

So, if you’re keen for a bit of a giggle and a peek into Aussie life, chuck on your headphones and give this episode a listen!

What do you find weird about Australia? Let us know! Catch ya later!
