Pumpkins, fancy dress and trick or treat (#8)

We’ve been to a few weddings together and have been shocked by some of the differences in UK vs UK weddings.

Get your school uniform back out the of closet (or not). This week, we discuss the differences in American and British school. From Kindergarten/year 1 through to high school/secondary school, it’s a pop quiz for both of us to see what we remember about the good ol’ days of school life.

Eggs everything, who decided? Eggs are probably the only thing that US and UK breakfasts have in common. In this episode, we break down the differences in the most important meal of the day. From why a biscuit is not a scone, to what in the world is in black pudding... it's eggselent.

Buckingham palace, royal weddings and baby Archie, oh my. This week, we talk all about the royal family and the role they play in the UK. Are they a force for good? What power do they actually have? And why doesn’t the queen need a passport?

'Darling, I fancy you.' From pick-up lines (or the lack of) to buying drinks (or in some cases, not buying) to a fourth-date trip to another country, we get a little personal in this episode chatting dating life in the US vs. the UK. Prepare to get hot under the collar with 30 minutes of podcast romance... because as T Swift says there's something about a London boy.
