Rewind – Angelo Tsarouchas
We revisit what has in many ways become an iconic Ouzo Talk chat with comedian, actor and writer, Angelo Tsarouchas! Ever wondered what it’d be like to have a stand-up comedian give you a private performance at home? This episode is your answer! Angelo joined Tom and Nick in Sydney during season one of Ouzo Talk as part of his Australian tour - and he had the boys in stitches from the get-go. Covering everything from growing up Greek in Canada and his time as a travel agent, to becoming a comedian and actor and ultimately touring the world with performers like Russell Peters, Angelo and the boys were in fine form. With the help of some ouzo, the trio also take on political correctness in comedy, plus the Will Smith/Chris Rock incident at The Oscars.

Macedonians remained Homeric in culture ❤
Makedon brother in Hesiod was Magnes founder of the Magnesians located in north Thessaly
Macedonian dialect could also have had Phrygian influence before they migrated into Asia Minor around 1000BC
Bravo boys
Thanks so much for your support!
Nice boys!!!! Long time fan. I’m surprised to see you on CZcams !!!
Thanks so much for the comment! We've been on CZcams for a while. Expect to see more coming your way through here very, VERY soon!
😀😀😀there are no greeks in Calabria there are arberesh
Thanks for your insights. We can't really speak on whether there are any Arbëreshë people in Calabria - although we suspect there would be! But there are most definitely Greeks (or Greko) in Calabria.
Γεια σας κύριε Θανάση τι να πει κάποιος για σας κουβαλάτε όλους αυτούς τους μεγάλους μπουζουκτσιδες και όχι μόνο αυτό το περνάτε στα νέα παιδιά να είστε ευλογημενος ευχαριστούμε είμαι ευγνώμων στο θεό που παίζω μπουζουκι
32:40 the admiral says the quiet part out loud - why would Russia need to defend that 600 miles? NATO is purely defensive, right? Right?
Καταπληκτικός σολίστας, δάσκαλος και πραγματικά μεγάλος μουσικός...
Repost with better audio. I read his book 'sea power', would really like to listen to this podcast, Stavridis... when i can actually listen to it.
We hear you on this one... even if you can't :-p . As you can tell, we unfortunately had a technical issue on this episode which we've since been able to fix. We're currently looking into options to improve this one.
Super cool 😂😊
Please talk less and play many more songs! This is because 'Talk is cheap!' ... and music is GREAT !!
We would LOVE to! Unfortunately copyright prevents us from including more music in our episodes, but we'll be having many more discussions about music in future.
Wow it was an amazing programme, bunch of thanks
Glad you liked it!
The sound is really really low. On full volume and still have to hold it next to my ear koubare
As a Greek, you can immediately tell the speaker is Greek from how he pronounces "Ιωάννης Μεταξάς".
Correct.
One of the best podcasts I have listened to, being Greek myself it truly resonated with me this particular podcast with Nick and he is spot on, humour allows us to listen and understand to the underlying and sometimes obvious messages well done. Love this podcast!!!
Only one Greek word in the whole interview. Yiayia. Come on !
Unfortunately Mark's Greek isn't where he would like it to be - but make no mistake, he is very proud of his heritage.
I get you Mary, I grew up the same in Sydney suburbs and like you came out on top !,!!
Love it! Hope you enjoyed the episode!
Very cool
I thought he was referring to Onassis before he went back 2500 years .
Somebody is going get hurt😂
I pissed myself with the fridge 😂
We all know someone who has tried to do something similar!

Where can I I watch the whole podcast in video???
Thanks for checking out the Ouzo Talk podcast! Just wanted to let you know that the podcast is primarily an audio experience, so we don't have long form video content at the moment (other than these short snippets of course). You can listen to the full episodes on all your favourite podcast streaming services including Apple Podcasts and Spotify!
Effie is funniest when she throws in a couple of Greek words as she is talking. Every one had cousins like that in the 80s.
Not just in the 80s! Still happens now!
@@OuzoTalk Except the Effies now are dangerous and challenge their parents Estates. The Effies have become Karens.
Wow re Angelo 😂😂😂 that was a wicked funny story bro 👏👦😁 BIG RESPECT from the Greek Cypriots In the UK
actually he didn't say no.he said in frenceh alors c'est la guerre means now this is(we have) war ochi means no in modern greek no is an ancient greek word you can find it in compound words such as νηστεύω nistevo νη+εσθίω=τρωγω,νηστεία ,nisteia, ancient meaning is abstain from food,modern meaning don't eat meat,eggs and milk, in holy week most greek are fasting νηστευουν and also every wednesday and friday οther words are νηνεμία(νη+ανεμος) ninemia means no wind ,νήπιο (νη+έπος=λογος) means toddler, νηπενθής (νη+πένθος) means exempt from mourning
Interesting thanks guys. I spent alternate years working in Crete, Rhodes and Corfu. Beautiful Greece❤️👍😌
Congratulations!
Although Anglo Saxons have erroneously produced many Greek haters, i have to admit that they have also produced many Greek Lovers. Professor Paul Cartledge is a respectable and famous teacher and belongs to the second category. Bravo pedia, etsi prepei!
Thanks so much for sharing! Paul absolutely does belong to the latter category. An amazing individual whose love of Greece is genuine.
Very moving. They don’t make them like that anymore. May their memory be eternal. 🇬🇷✝️🇦🇺
Let's not forget that the GREEKS were and are HEROES, we go back to the ancient SPARTANS.....PROUD TO BE GREEK!
Το χρυσό μείγμα ο Θανάσης Πολυκανδριώτης!!!!!!!
Hi guys, i am married to an English woman, i am Greek myself and i used to tell my wife stories about Greek student (when i was a student) who were travelling to UK with a suitcase full of meat balls or gourounopoula (roasted pig) , which suddenly opened in the carousel of the luggage claim in, Heathrow, London. My wife, for sure did not believe me, but after this video, she did!
Stavridis is correct
All you need is Greece
AS a Brit I am truly ashamed of the attitude of the British Museum. These marbles belong in Greece.

Yep he was ready to play for Greece at 16 just like he is ready to be playing for South’s now. As a fan this really annoys me.
Agreed. He's more than ready to play first grade regularly!
Jibberkit here, this is one of my favourite episodes
The video thumbnail doesn’t show any marble items.

My father came to Australia in 1938. When he presented to be naturalised some years later ( to become a British subject ) he was asked if he would defend Australia and he confirmed he would . He was then asked if Australia went to war with Greece would he? And he immediately replied I would never fight my own brothers! The officer put his hand on my fathers shoulder and said you are the sort of man we need. My father died here at 80 yo , raised us five kids with our Australian mother and never drew a pension having come here penniless and uneducated. That tenacity with which the Greek people resisted the nazis was in his dna too. I feel like a Pygmy compared to all of them ! May the memory of all who fell be eternal and we all as Australians strive to capture their philotimo!
Unbelievable story! Thank you so much for sharing with us. Keep telling your story to anyone who will listen! It's important that these stories aren't lost.
Let’s not forget the bond between Australia and Greece. Many Australians paid the ultimate sacrifice, especially during the Battle of Crete. So very very proud to be Greek Australian 🇬🇷🇦🇺
100% Jimmy. Well said!
