EP12: Random Rambles Pt. 1
Ever end up with a collection of stories you think you’ll never have the right opportunity to tell? Well, we have a lot of those, and we made an opportunity for ourselves! For the first episode of random rambles, we tell the saga of the Switch recovery, mystery Pokémon cards, baby’s first snorkel, and several more mini-adventures that have all given us rather unexpected stories to tell.

EP10: Lizard Bonking Stick
Uluru part 2! We had so much to share still that we spent most of this episode going over Aboriginal culture, creation stories, and how their past interacts with the present. Bonus sounds of the relaxing ocean and not-so-relaxing baby seagull!

EP9: Uluru, Fooluru, or Many Heads?
Uluru part 1! We learned about many things on our trip to the big red rock in the desert - geology, tjukurpa, and camel stories, to name a few - which we share with you in a coffee-fueled hour of bird distractions. From touristy observations to histor-ROCK-al contexts, get ready for a rockin’ good time! (Too many puns? Too bad! It’ll probably get worse! :D)

EP6: G’Day Mate
A long overdue update on Ausmo, a not-so-comprehensive discussion of “controversial” Aussie debates, and two (probably) over-caffeinated and (definitely) abnormally excited and loud podcast hosts. Volume warning, because for some reason we were VERY enthusiastic this episode.
