In today's episode...
Hey, you guys! How’s it going this week?
We went on a recent holiday at Inverloch so I got my dad Ian back on the podcast for another Goss episode.
Today’s episode is about this brewing question among Australians: Should Australia now become a Republic?
You see, Australia has been having this difficulty on whether we switch to being a republic than being a Commonwealth.
And now that Queen Elizabeth II has passed, talks about Australia becoming a republic has come around again.
Listen in as we talk about when this movement started, and why we think it’s more complicated than just electing a new president.
Join us for another round of great chin-wagging here on the Aussie English podcast!
