  • Was ist das brilliance

    I asked Siri to play me a podcast for expats in Austria and was thrown this gem. As an Australian (slowly learning German), I can generally only understand half of this but it’s still hilarious and I appreciate the random stories, very insightful into Wien life.

    These guys are getting me through living in the States until I move back to Austria. I listen to them every Monday while I make my Palatschinken. ♥️

  • Hmm

    The topics are very interesting, but the Austrian guy is very rude and hates everything 🧐 to every single topic he is always unhappy. It is not nice to hear.
