Three Sheets to the Wind with Adam Courtenay
Learn Australian English in each of these episodes of the Aussie English Podcast.
In these Aussie English Interview episodes, I get to chin-wag with different people in and out of Australia!

In today's episode...
Let’s welcome back the brilliant bestselling author of The Ship that Never Was, Adam Courtenay!
Adam is back on the podcast as he talks about his latest book Three Sheets to the Wind.
It’s about a band of merchant seamen who had to walk hundreds of miles across Sydney to save 7000 gallons of rum.
But it’s a beautiful tale about brave men and how language barriers are overcome when one needs help.
Imagine English-speaking men who communicated with different indigenous tribes, trying to get where they need to be.
And finally, you also get a trip down historic Australia! It’s a truly great read!
