I have had to witness a kangaroo being put down with a rock after colliding with our car very much like what Rachel and Sarah had to do. Episode 3: >Prawn-Drawn Carriage is a reference to a BlG Christmas food over here: PRAWNS! I eat them almost every Christmas, great summer food. Yes we call them Prawns not bloody Shrimp. >Crocodiles are native to Australia. I have nothing more to say so watch this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1i739SyCu9l [Embed] Episode 4: >i'd like to note that this episode is co-written by Michelle Brasier who is a popular comedian/actor here. She does sketches with YouTube comedy troupe Aunty Donna who I've met, they do great comedy. She also writes/stars on Shaun Micallef's Mad as Hell which is basically our Daily Show, a weekly satirical news program. >Terry Cup could be a nod to the Melbourne Cup, one of the biggest horse races in the world. Rachel and Sarah are wearing hats, its a Melbourne Cup tradition for ladies to wear pretty and extravigant hats. >Pokies are what we call slot machines (gambling machines). We also call them a brickie's laptop. >> O Anonymous 09/01/20(Tue)16:24:41 No.117357333 >>117360954 >>117361737 >>117369091 File: 1598861731206.jpg (199 KB, 1920x1080) Episode 5: >Bush Doofs are a real thing. They're basically lowkey festivals/DJ sets in the middle of the bush which involve a lot of drug-taking and dancing. >Quadruple J is a reference to Triple J which is a popular publically funded youth radio station in Australia. Known internationally for their annual Hottest 100 song lists. They also are ad-free. >The two radio presenters look and sound a lot like Veronica and Lewis, 2 popular Triple J presenters. Although the girl very closely resembles Sally Coleman, the current breakfast host. They reference the "text lines" which is cool since Michael Cusack animated a video for Triple J of a bunch of texts they got from listeners: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y14clTsFli8 [Embed] >The voice of the Red Wizard is done by Jarrad Wright who created the Big L-- show, a massive webcartoon over here. The biggest episodes have 3 million views. Its one of the most iconic series down here, people quote it all the time. Episode 6: >Sarah's dad refers to "Planet Bali". This of course referencing the Indonesian island of Bali. This is a VERY popular holiday destination for Aussie tourists due to cheap airfares. It is known for its parties and cheap beer. If Sarah HAD landed on Planet Bali I imagine there would've been much binge drinking and drug-taking. Episode 7: >We call trucks, Utes, like Utility Vehicles. Ute Uncle Barry Cameo. Episode 8: >i don't know w-- a Chickengong is. >A sausage sizzle is what we call a barbegue when someone cooks sausages and puts them in bread. They're very common for fundraisers. Not too much region-specific humour in the first episode but I would like to point out that the interaction with Sarah's Dad and the cut-out newspaper article has happened to be more than once.
