- American Couple Reacts: AUSTRALIA VS AMERICA! 50 DIFFERENCES! FIRST TIME REACTION!! Aussie Culture! This was a fun video Australia! P.O. Box Gifts from our Aussie friends too! While there were several on this list that didn't surprise us, there were more that did! We also had to correct a couple "mistakes" the young American made here. When we learn about the differences between other countries, we actually learn more about our similarities. That is the common ground that seems to be missing in so many "Reaction Channels." Our World isn't as large as it once was and learning about each other, no matter where we are on the Globe, is vital to our true connections and understanding of each other as people, as friends. We hope you enjoy this episode and perhaps you learned some differences between Australia and where you may be on the map? Let us know. Thank you SO much for watching!

PBJ No just no. Way to sweet.
@Neil Gayleard have you tried it?? Every person outside of the US that have tried it we've spoken to have LOVED it! Best thing EVER!!!!!
Used to eat peanut butter and strawberry jam as a kid. But too sweet for me now. Maybe coz its sweet jam? Dont know what grape jelly tastes like
Something interesting to note about emergency numbers is that here in Australia 911 ALSO works as an emergency number. On older phones you get a voice recording asking you to press 55 for an emergency and on newer ones 911 and 999 are redirected to the 000 number since the phone flags it as an emergency call.
Here in Sydney 🇦🇺 I grew up on peanut butter with a little honey, which was a better option than any jam out there. It was introduced to me by my English mum in the late 60's and on through the 70's and beyond. Either on toast or soft, white bread and real butter 🍞🥜🍯 😋😋😋
It looks like Tristan gets as much wrong about America as he does about Australia.
I don't know, he gets plenty correct.
He is from Texas
It's like what was said before. Consider where he's staying in Australia? It looks like Queensland, the south-east part. Everyone knows how different it is state to state. He gets it correct in general terms, but not with detail beyond the part he experienced. For example, when I worked in North Queensland, it was not uncommon to see people walk around with no shoes on, but if you consider here in Adelaide, you would get stared at, and could be refused entry.
@@emmacooper1524 in NSW it's very common to go about wearing no shoes. I'm one of those ppl, i have ducked into Coles to pick up a couple of things barefoot. I never wear shoes around the yard & as soon as I've umpired my last game of netball on a Saturday arvo i take my joggers & socks straight off& take my bra off also & then head off to the next court to coach my umpires. Actually in my local shopping centre more ppl are barefoot than have shoes on. Of course if your heading down the club or pub or restaurant u are refused entry but everywhere else is completely normal including going into Macca's etc
@@Tully_23_32 Lets get this straight - whilst umpiring a game or multiple games of netball, you have your joggers and socks and bra on, but after your umpiring you take off all said pieces of shoes/clothing and head off to the next court to coach your umpires?
You CAN advertise alcohol, I don't know where he got that from. Australia was the leader in stopping tobacco advertising, and graphic warnings on packets.
there are restrictions on where, when and how, but he is 100% wrong on that point. some of our best ads are beer ads.
Yeah I think the laws must be different in QLD...you can absolutely advertise booze in NSW
Ads for alcohol are not supposed to show positive effects from drinking alcohol in the way that soft drinks are advertised as amazingly fun to drink. It's to try and prevent younger kids from thinking that alcohol is fun.
@@pablonaghtenandes6336 of course you can advertise alcohol in Qld. Bundy Rum is made in Qld as is XXXX Beer. You can't make ads that promote bad drinking habits or target minors. Businesses like BWS and Dan Murphy advertise on TV frequently. You can't buy alcohol in supermarkets in Qld.
@@leglessinoz Then where TF has he gotten the idea that we can't advertise alcohol??? Poor boy is confused 🤔
Fun fact. In Australia, it is not advertised, but they quietly added 911 as an optional emergency number some years ago, because so many people know it from American TV shows and movies. You can also dial 112 on mobile phones, which is an international standard for mobile phones.
I think 999 also redirects and likely several emergency numbers for tourists etc
@@whatwhatinthewhat4400 yes, I think 999 and a couple of other ones were added.
They did it as immmigration climbed. It was mainly people who weren't born and raised in Australia who thought it was 911 due to the American TV shows.
I'd heard that they made all emergency numbers usable in Australia. So tourists can use the number they are most familiar
You can dial any worldwide emergency number on a mobile, and it will automatically redirect to 000
In Australia the 000 came about because on the old spin dial telephones, the 0 was the last number so it was the least likely to happen accidentally three times 😊
We can still actually dial 911 and it just redirects to 000 because of tourists 😂
@@sneezingmango I never knew that, that is so smart
G'day girls, that bird that we call a "Bush Turkey" is no relation to the American Turkey. To cook one, place the bird and a large stone into a pot and cook until the stone is tender. The bird will need a bit more cooking.
It’s a brush Turkey not bush 😉 but lots of people get it wrong including me until about a year ago! Edit- apparently it’s ok to call it either so my bad sorry 😂
😂😂😂
A bush Turkey is an Emu
@@Dr_KAP LOL 😂 you say brush, I say bush and they are also called scrub turkeys as well. 😝 Their zoological name is Alectura Lathami. 😊
It's called convergence of evolution, they only superficially appear similar. Brush turkeys are from a group of birds called megapodes(mound nesters). They incubate their eggs in a mound of compost, like some reptiles.
As an Aussie, I have never been aware of the “not driving at night”
We do have garbage disposals
We have ice machines in hotels
Strictly speaking it’s not compulsory to vote. It IS compulsory to attend a voting booth and get your name ticked off the electoral roll. After that you can put in a valid vote or not.
I have never seen a garbage disposal in a sink, was always freaked out seeing them in movies/tv
I've also never seen an ice machine, if you want ice, you go to the servo or use an ice cube tray
@@HeiwaTori I know people with garbage disposals.
I live in Adelaide so don’t stay in hotels here obviously but have stayed in Melbourne hotels where there are ice machines
@@user-ls3xl7ml3d it really is all down to where you live I guess, Im in Melbourne, were the disposals in newer or older houses?
I've only been to 1 hotel in Melbourne CBD & no ice (wasnt looking for it though so idk)
Yeah. Also coupons are a thing here in Australia, they just aren't all that common. The entire reason why I've been hooked on Nene Chicken food recently is because of a coupon I got for them and because I like Korean chicken so much.
Also he says that dog's aren't allowed in most parks, yet there's like 5 parks/reserves near where I live and dogs are allowed in all of them. In particular, one of them I very often see a lot of people take their dogs.
In the States every floor of a hotel has an ice-machine and they're noisy. We're lucky if we have one for an entire building. We don't use as much ice in our drinks here; we're happy just to have refrigerated drinks. People that live in the countryside that has a high population of kangaroos or unfenced cattle stations etc avoid driving at night.
We absolutely can (and do) advertise alcohol in Australia. Tristan got that one wrong. Some of our most popular tv ads and catchiest jingles are for alcohol. I don't know if you're familiar with drop bears (the urban legend that Aussies like to frighten tourists with) but that story was popularized by a Bundaberg rum commercial :)
Don’t think you can advertise it before a certain hour of the day.
@@nevilleapple629i think it’s 9 or 10pm, but yes, it’s definitely advertised, and every advertisement has the “drink responsibly” slogan.
Just wish we could do to gambling ads what we did to alcohol and tobacco ads.
@@nevilleapple629i see ad's for alcohol on youtube ad's all the time
Carlton Drys s ad's are elite
"It's a big ad. Very big ad.
It's a big ad we're in.
It's a big ad. My God it's big!
Can't believe how big it is!
It's a big ad! For Carlton Draught!
It's just so freak…ing HUGE!
It's a big ad! Expensive ad!
This ad better sell some…
bloooooooody… beer!"
The Australian brush turkey (Alectura Lathami), also frequently called the 'scrub turkey' or 'bush turkey', is a native Australian bird. It is protected under state wildlife legislation (Nature Conservation Act 1992). It is a serious offence to harm brush turkeys.
The reason why grape jelly is well known in the USA, but grape jam doesn't exist in nations where 'jam' is the norm, is because grapes contain a very low level of pectin which is used to thicken/clot jam naturally, without adding gelatin; so where 'jelly' comprises fruit, sugar and added gelatin, jam by comparison is made with just fruit and sugar, and 'gels' naturally.
I also think that Concord grapes are not grown here in Australia. Aren't they the ones used for grape jelly?
My mum makes lots of jam of all sorts of varieties, including Grape, so it's certainly doable. I don't have her recipe, but maybe it has some apple in it as well, as apples have a lot of pectin, so help other jams set, without affecting the flavour.
She also does tomato jam, which I always thought was weird (but it is tasty!)
The best thing about having compulsory voting is that voting has to be equally accessible to everyone where possible.
Good point. I hadn't thought of that. I'd only thought of people forced to vote and not really having knowledge of who or what they were voting for
Excellent point... didn't think of that but it means that there can't be attempts to stop some folks voting!!
@@grantmaclennan4397 it also forces a lot of people to actually think about the politics and what they want.
Great point! The (independent) Electoral Commission has a responsibility to make voting possible for as many citizens as it can. We can vote in any booth in our own state (and selected booths if we’re out of state on Election Day). We have booths at almost every school and civic centre so most people people don’t have to travel too far or wait long too vote. They go into hospitals and care homes and have mobile booths visiting remote locations in the weeks leading up to elections. Early voting, postal voting and in the last federal election phone voting for people isolating due to Covid It’s very easy to vote in Australia
Also, its only compulsory voting/getting your name marked off on the electoral roll at Federal and State elections. Local government is optional voting. Also sushi IS sliced here, but you can get it full-sized.
So about the hitting an animal, as long as you check the pouch and mark it with a paint or washable marker most Australians will understand that you've checked for a joey. If you find one you can find a rescue service to help. We don't want to miss the example of saving a wild lifes life.❤
Driving at night is a HUGE thing in Australia if you're being paid to drive for work or a truck driver, every quote to the client will be quoted for it, motels/hotels do 5am check ins etc if you can call ahead. Night time means less traffic, truck drivers love it because of the lower temperature which makes a huge difference to how their tyres wear.
Ice is not common in a hotel - but every room has a fridge! You basically have your own. Financial years are designed to finish in winter. Less staff on leave.
Take your point about being easy to call emergency number with buttons by mistake, children etc ,but when 999 number was introduced phones didn't have buttons,they had the circular dialing mechanism where you would have to turn dial through nearly 360 degrees 3 times ,much harder to dial 999 by mistake.❤
The 000 number was chosen because even in the dark you could just turn the dial around to its furthest point (0) without having to see the numbers.
If you press 911 in Australia you still get 000
also, there is a secondary emergency number often used with mobile phones which is 112...
This young man is in Queensland which is unlike anywhere else in Australia so I suggest he travels a bit before trying to inform about a country than his own but then it seems he got some of that wrong too
There is another reason why the number 999 was selected for emergency use, which is actually for a practical reason. You first have to realise that when two physical wires accidentally make contact with each other it causes an electrical impulse to be transmitted through to the telephone exchange, where it is automatically recognised by the system as a number 1. Such an accidental signal can be caused either by the wind blowing the wires into contact or by the weight of a flock of birds perching on the wire, making it droop into an accidental contact. One might argue that the wires should be tightened to remove the sag but since the wires can either expand or contract due to the heat of the day, a wire may grow to a length that can allow contact to be made, but equally if a wire has been connected without sufficient play in it’s length it is capable of contracting to the point where it can cause the wires to snap apart or to cause a joint to break. So in order to minimise the number of false calls to the emergency services the number was selected that was less likely to be dialled by accidental contacts due to non human interference with the system. It was also selected as being simple to remember and easy to dial in the event that it was difficult for the caller to see the dial it could be dialled by touch alone. This could happen in the case of a smoke filled room or in the event of a power cut. Another feature of the modern push button phone is that the number 5 has a small pip placed on it so that anyone whose sight is obscured by smoke or lack of light or indeed due to a sight problem, they can navigate the buttons by touch alone, in the same manner certain keys on a computer keyboard have small raised features to assist anyone who is touch typing to find the key that they require without visually locating it.
Alcohol advertising isn't banned in Australia. However, it is limited to ensure the advertisements cannot target certain audiences or convey particular messages
Out of all the videos ive seen about Americans learning about Australia you guys always seem to be the best. your videos are always fun and entertaining and you seem to actually think and not just believe what ever the people say unlike a lot of other youtubers keep up the great work and look forward to more
Compulsory voting is very popular here. We see it as a really good idea. Our voting system is called "Preferential Voting" and is also very popular. There are some good videos on our system. Australians believe our system is superior to voluntary voting and "first past the post" as used in the USA.
Mate you've got so much wrong about "voting"......
Technically you don't have to vote, you just have to have your name crossed off as attending a polling booth etc. You can do as you please at that point.
@@cathymoss6400 True of course, but I have to admit I love voting so much I never do that, and even if there are fifty candidates, I number every box!
We use a similar system in Ireland. We call it Proportional Represntation. It's much more democratic than the US or the UK.
Don't forget democracy sausages!
That No Hat No Play rule is also in New Zealand for the same reason, that became a rule in like 1995/1996 in New Zealand I remember
It is supposed to be a rule in most schools in NZ but in reality teachers tend to feel that young students shouldn't miss out on play because their parents haven't provided a hat for what ever reason. To help more and more schools are erected shade cloth over play areas.
Hey Girls, I enjoy your content around Australian-isms & reactions. FYI 000 for emergency services in Australia was designed when there were only rotary-dial phones - so 000 would mean pushing the dial around the maximum amount, then letting go, three times in a row. Very hard for kids to do accidentally!! Keep up the good work :) Mitch from Australia.
We do have ice but not for the public to handle due to sicknesses being spread from hands to drinks. The barman uses a scoop.
KMart Australia is not the same store as in the US. In Australia, it’s part of Coles Supermarkets which are owned by Wesfarmers.
This is a LONG reply...sorry for the wall of text, love you guys.
I have driven at night in parts of northern Western Australia, and outback Queensland. In the country, the only thing you can really do is make sure the car has a bull bar (also known as a roo-bar) on it, a lot of flood lights, and you go slower than normal.
If you are out in the deeper country, so off the main highways, then you are usually going even slower, but still the same applies from above otherwise.
Another thing too, is different wildlife pose different risks:
1) I had a friend I used to work with, who was driving in the day time, in the outback to a job site when he had to stop for a kangaroo stopped in the middle of the road. Then he noticed movement to his right, and the rest of the mob (the name of a group of kangaroos) hit his hire car like a heard of cattle. Smashed every window, the side mirror, dented every side panel, and the roof and hood/trunk completely.
He took it back the hire place, and the asked where it was. He told them, after explaining what happened, and they said (no joke) "OH, well in that case, here is another car, no issues, and sorry for the hassle. That mob are known for ambushing cars regularly like that." REGULARLY.
2) Some animals are going to mess you up different.
Horses: statistically the highest killer on Aussie roads each year.
Wombats: if you hit a wombat at the right speed, anything above 45mph, you will flip your car, and wreck it, and it will get up and walk away.
Camels: In the northern desert areas, you have a VERY high risk of hitting a wild camel. Australia has the largest wild population of camels in the world, and we export more than any other country, and especially ship to places like the UAE etc.
Spiders: when one the size of a small bread plate walks across the inside of your wind shield at high speed...control can become an issue.
Koalas: same as wombats, but they don't get up afterwards, but expect a high repair bill.
Advertising restrictions also apply for cigarettes as well. Other ones are doctors can't advertise here either.
Fosters is the beer we send overseas, because we don't drink it. We don't have a national beer, each state however generally has one that is sort of claimed as the state beer. XXXX (said as four-ex) is the main one in Queensland. We generally tend to however go for Dry or Bitter style beers.
In Queensland (where I live, clearly) the Department of Transport manages the licenses. The last time I went for a license there, I walked in and was greeted by a concierge who asked what I was there for, then helped get me the correct ticket to be seen as soon as possible. I sat down in a clean seat, and about 10 minutes later I went over and got my license transferred from the old state and address to the new one. Including having the photo done, where they checked with me that the photo was okay. Then 10 minutes later I was called up, and got the license itself.
Aussie burgers are superior. Not only do they need the the beetroot on them, but a fried egg, where the yolk is still runny, so when you bite into it the hot yolk runs down your cheek, and lastly a slice of pineapple on top. Everything else is the same, good beef chicken mince patties or do a slow cooked bbq shredded chicken , onion, lettuce, tomato and sauce(s) of choice. Toast the bun. Serve with fresh well salted chips and a drink of choice.
Wild Turkeys as he has it are BUSH Turkeys. They are okay to eat, if you have patience to cook the things. Think of them as being like walking feather covered strings of mostly leather...
If you want ice in a hotel, you ring room service and they bring it to you.
Do the Slang Videos, that would be cool.
The beer we drink in Australia depends on what state or territory you live in. Im from South Australia and we tend to drink Coopers, pirate life, and west end. We definitely do not drink fosters. 😂
I highly recommend building an Aussie burger. We refer to it as " The Lot". It consists traditionally of: Beef patty, burger bun, tomato, lettuce, cheese, Bacon, beetroot, pineapple, egg and bbq sauce.
Excellent beer and burger tips if I ever get to Australia.
@@gerrymccartney3561 Not from SA myself, but coopers is a fantastic ALE (not a beer per se). I personally prefer Coopers pale ale, or the stout (as I am a massive Guinness fan). For a beer however, I found through my years of working in a bottle shop Aussies tend to prefer Either the Drier beers (Extra dry, Asahi for an import), or the bitters such as VB. One thing we really REALLY do not drink is Fosters.
As for Burgers, as the ladies don't eat beef, the main chicken burger franchise, at least in NSW is Opporto's. While they lack the Beetroot, the Otropo burger has pineapple which goes better with chicken than beetroot IMHO as beetroot tends to have an "earthy" flavor to it that pairs better with beef. Having said that, burgers with the lot and a nice dry beer or ale is a nice dinner, and many pubs have fantastic bistro's out here.
@@sutekh233 Thank you.
you forgot the onion lol
In NSW we call it a works burger
Hi from Sydney. Love your reaction videos. Keep em coming. Alcohol advertising is allowed. What is not allowed is alcohol related sponsorship of sporting teams. Tobacco advertising and sponsorship was banned 30 years ago.
I think PB&J have gotten more popular here due to American TV, I tried it for that reason and was a fan! I can't imagine what grape jam would taste like though, I always used strawberry. But the "go to" sandwiches for kids here is usually Vegemite and butter or ham/ ham & cheese, or just a plain jam sandwich. At least it was 20 years ago when I was in school 😂
We had PB and jam (strawberry or raspberry) or PB and honey and PB and sultana's allot as children. I don't eat Vegimite but my mother used to eat Vegimite and cheese sandwiches.
Natasha and Debbie, love your channel, and love the both of you.
Elections in Australia.
A few points:
1. You do get fined if you do not attend a polling booth or send a postal vote. But you can write whatever you like on the ballot paper! No one checks the ballot paper to see what you voted or if you voted correctly, because it is a secret ballot. So, technically, it is compulsory to attend a ballot, but not to lodge a correct vote.
2. As a result, the turnout for most federal and state elections is approx 90%. Which means the final results pretty much reflect the "will of the people.
3. In the US, parties worry about "turning out the vote" We don't worry about that in Oz. As a result, US politics tends to work at the extremes, with political parties being outrageous and extreme to get people mad enough to vote. Alternatively in Australia, given most people will be voting, political parties have to focus on what we call the "sensible centre", not to those on the extreme. Thus Australian political parties that want to win, have to appeal to the middle ground if they want success. This is why your voting system in the US encourages extreme views, and, may I suggest, why your electoral landscape appears to be completely whacko!
4. We have preferential voting. That means if 10 people stand for election in your electorate (ie. Congressional District in the US) then you number your ballots from 1 to 10, 1 being your most preferred candidate, 10 your least preferred. If the candidate you prefer (vote 1) receives the lowest number of votes, then they are dropped out, and your vote is then redistributed to your second preference, and so on. That means, no one is elected until they receive 50.1% of the total vote, based on the individual electors preferences. Hope that makes sense! Again, this prevents whacko candidates winning an election with just 15% of the vote, against the wishes of most of the electors, just because they have been an outrageous buffoon on the TV
Sorry to be long winded, but the Australian system would eliminate much of the crazy stuff we see in the US political system. I think you are both highly intelligent, and therefore would find the electoral differences quite interesting. Sorry if that is a little nerdy, but I follow australian and US politics quite closely
Keep up the great work
Our system prevents gerrymandering. And we have an apolitical department, Australian Electoral Commission, which overseas elections’ integrity.
@@vtbn53 if you put them as your last preference your vote will never go to them. I have worked for the Electoral Office counting votes in numerous elections so I know what I'm talking about.
@@vtbn53 Given there's usually at least five different parties that's pretty unlikely?
Like, first you vote all your favs and then eventually you list the big parties that are closer to you than the other big parties and one of those bigger parties will get it eventually but!
They can see trails of what direction the people voting for them are coming from and this can, in theory, make them aware that if they stray too far from certain 'wants' they'll end up losing their supporter base, not to just their main opposition but to smaller parties who better represent their voter base, and if they don't respect that. Well, look at what's been happening to the Liberals in the last few years: Their clinging to the 'climate change isn't happening' stance has lead a ton of their voters to start voting in 'Teal' Independents (aka green aware former liberal blue supporters) as their representatives instead.
Something that voters in an American or English style 'first past the post' system would never be able to achieve because everyone going in is deeply aware that their vote could be 'wasted' if they don't pick the 'big party' instead of their actual favorite.
...If it helps, try thinking of the order of preference on the voting sheet as like a tier list; best stuff up top, lowest stuff near the bottom - you may not get your absolute fav as the election result but at least you've got them all lined up neatly and everyone seeing it knows you and possibly many others think [party A] is the absolute utter worst while [party C] is fantastic, and if say mid tier at best [party B] doesn't get its act together sooner or later [party C] or one of the others will replace it
Great summary Stephen!
For all our system should be fair and equitable, we have had some awful people voted in.
Compulsory voting is great! I taught my kids how to vote from the time they become double digits. . I never attempt to sway their vote, I always ask why this or that party, but I never tell them who to vote for, I explain that you have a voice and must use it which is why I dont get Americans not voting. Your vote is ur voice.
I agree - voting is a privilege as well as a right. I feel that if one doesn't vote, one forfeits the right to complain about the result.
If you don't vote then don't complain about election results or the politicians in power. You had your chance to help make a difference but you chose not to.
I’ve seen some misinformation here about compulsory voting. So the Commonwealth Electoral Act of 1918 states that “it shall be the duty of every elector to vote at each election”. Some people say it’s only compulsory to attend the polling booth and have your name marked off. That’s false. You must mark the ballot paper, fold it, and deposit it in the ballot box. How you choose to mark it is up to you! It is breaking the law if you don’t do this and the punishment is a small fine. If you refuse to pay the fine you could end up in Court.
Most trade names used in Australia like Target, Kmart, 7/11 are not owned by the US Corporations. The trading names were bought by local companies decades ago. For instance, Wesfarmers own Kmart and Target here. As a result, the offering has significantly diverged from that of the sister companies in the States. The only things they have in common are the logo and the fact that they are department stores of some description. It is true that there are some brands here that are totally owned by foreign corporations, like McDonalds, but they still franchise, and the majority of KFC stores are owned by Collins Foods, under a master franchise agreement. Hungry Jacks and Burger King are a whole other story. You definitely can't assume anything when it comes to the ownership structure and operation of a lot of major US brands in Australia, but I notice the majority of people seem as though they do.
Hi Lovely Ladies, from Oz, My perfect Aussie Burger: beef pattie (meat optional), onion, cheese, bacon, egg, tomato, lettuce and Beetroot (Pickled) on a buttered, lightly toasted bread roll. Grated carrot, cucumber and pineapple are also optional to personal taste. But most real older Aussies would say it's not a real fair dinkum hamburger without beetroot, Cheers Mydears!!
Just go and ask for a 𝓑𝓾𝓻𝓰𝓮𝓻 𝔀𝓲𝓽𝓱 𝓽𝓱𝓮 𝓵𝓸𝓽
Or a works burger here in Qld...can't beat a root
How I look at voting in America, is if you don't then don't complain about the result you get; if you want to make a difference, the your vote is your voice. It says a lot about Australian WiFi, seeing as we developed it; you would think we would have atleast near the best in the world. We have the 12 points system for traffic infringements, but our licenses are only suspended for a set period; anywhere between 6-12 months I think, haven't lost my licence so far. Our cancer prevention ads are based around slip, slop slap(slip on a top, slop on sunscreen 50+ and slap on a hat). Beetroot in Australia has usually been canned in a light vinegar, and as far as I'm concerned it's unaustralian not to have beetroot on your hamburger; but never on a chicken or fish burger(I love pickles on my hamburger if beetroot isn't available). We have dual flush toilets I Australia, it is a building requirement; the half flush for piddling, and full flush for pooping.
Yesss!!! Facts right there!!
To be fair, the WiFi is great... The internet connection servicing it, however...
ABSOLUTELY CORRECT!!
@@vtbn53 Boooooo!
Watching this clip I realised that I guess as Australia has been hugely influenced by Britain, then since WW2 we have also been hugely influenced by the U.S. , and I suppose we have taken/absorbed the best bits of Britain & the US as to what suits us.
It sort of didn't occurr to me much before. The young man could have spoken more about our polymer bank notes, which are so advanced that we make bank notes for many other countries. They are more durable and impossible to counterfeit.
Good video girls. Cheers from sunny Queensland on this cold winters morning.
I should have added, for the last 30 odd years or so, we are greatly influenced by our Asian neighbours in regards to food. Thai, Indonesian, Vietnamese, Chinese and Japanese and of course Indian cuisines. For instance I prefer to use Bok Choy instead the humble cabbage. It is very much like a cabbage.
Darwin in the very north of the country is the best place to try all the different sorts of Asian foods. You can grocery shop and leave your goods to be picked up say 6pm. Outside of a side entrance is a grassy park with Asian street food vendors. You sit on a grassy slope, eat and watch a fire eater entertainer etc. Very bohemian I guess. Then drive around and pick up your groceries. That's at a shopping centre called Palmeston.
Australian notes also have tactile bumps to help identify different denominations
In South Australia (and probably most of Australia)
What you call Jelly, we call Jam.
What you call Jell-o, we call Jelly
Jelly and jam are not the same. Jam has fruit bits/pulp in it whereas jelly is just the juice. Both have lots of sugar though and are really unhealthy as is peanut butter... and the white bread which is compulsory for a PB&J. So I have them very seldomly these days!
Aussie here! Never heard of the “ not driving at night”. Growing up in a rural area, we were always careful when driving at dusk. Had to watch for kangaroos as it was their active time. If one jumped across the road when you were driving we were always taught to watch for the second one as there is nearly always more than one and the second was the one you were more likely to hit.
Also if you don’t vote, you are fined. Not too sure but i think it’s about $100.

Was a bit late to this but did I just hear him say we don't advertise alcohol in Australia 🤔
Um ok..that's crap!
Ok,back to it now.
Yup, total bollocks
I live in Tasmania and did a trip years ago up to Queensland. I decided to drive my own car and because of the higher possibilities of hitting animals I stopped every night at close to dusk and stayed at a motel overnight. It took 3 days to travel but I felt it was worth it for the safety aspect.
My Uncle hit an Emu last year
No, he’s wrong, most Aussies get paid fortnightly! Weekly is for wages, (hospitality, customer service etc), fortnightly is for a salary (annual fixed payments).

the beetroot on our burgers is pickled beetroot and takes the place of a pickled cucumber so it's like a milder more filling pickle, pickled beetroot is also common with salad and salad rolls/sandwiches. roast/cooked beetroot is uncommon.
RE: Emergency numbers a lot of phone manufacturers and/or mobile network regulators have implemented failsafes for people travelling who may not know the emergency number where they are. So for in example, here in the UK if you were to dial any of the emergency numbers (999/000/112/911 etc) from your mobile phone it'd still connect you to emergency services. Also the UK using 999 was because when you used the older style rotary phones it'd mean you were less likely to dial it by mistake.
If you dial 112 on a mobile phone in Australia it will connect you to 000 but 999 and 911 won’t.
@@miniveedub Yes they will
@@G_Stan no they mostly won’t. Because regular Australia phone numbers start with 9 the telephone system doesn’t usually recognise 999 and 911. Only 000 always works from any phone but 112 will usually work from mobile phones.
He's probably only staying in 2-3 star hotels or backpackers. More upmarket ones will have ice machines.
But in general when you want ice you buy a bag of it from the local servo or supermarket.
Or just use the ice-tray in your fridge if you only need enough for a drink.
Beetroot on burgers is good... but it is the canned beetroot that is also pickled and provides the little acidity kick - it is a replacement for the pickle on burgers which isn't as common in Australia unless getting a fast food chain burger.
Voting is not compulsory, going to the polling place and getting your name ticked off is. They can't make you actually vote
Yep get your voting card & write mickey mouse if you don't want to vote.
Its a bit of entertainment for the scrutineers at the electoral commission seeing some of the hilarious and sometime scary things people write on their voting forms. If they want to waste their vote, that's their problem.
Yes they can,you get fined if you don't vote...FACT!!
not driving at night really applies to outlying areas/remote areas. Not our cities and suburbs. People still drive in the remote areas anyway.
I'm bloody paranoid whenever I drive in Central QLD for work (usually some mine site in the middle of whoop-whoop). But here in the suburbs of Brissie, not so much.
I live in a wildlife rich semi rural area in QLD, and I think as long as you're familiar with the area, or appropriately cautious and aware it's fine, driving slow enough to give wallabies, deer etc time to get out of the way and watching out for small animals like echidnas and koalas. But thankfully we don't really have kangaroos around here which is the main issue, no matter what speed you're going if that jumps out without warning - yikes. In kangaroo dense areas I'd probably warn tourists not to drive at night too or at least be hyper vigilant. Obviously it's horrible to hit an animal but you don't want to have to worry about your own life as well.
Hey Sheilas, the turkey referred to in Australia is called bush Turkey. Totally different to the turkey throughout America as the local bush turkey are actually related to as the oldest living dinosaur. It is also illegal to kill, capture or remove them without proper legal documentation or it can lead to eye watering fines or even serious jail time. Just down near my place there are hundreds of them and they are amazing to have around as they also eat ticks, grass fleas and all other vermins. Cheers 👍
Beer in Australia has seen a rise in craft/small brewery's.. my favourite is Stone and Wood.. Pacific Ale.
I have watched so many of tristans vids before and I think he's lovely and is kind to my country, but he may be getting alot of his facts from certain parts of Australia as here in Melbourne we have different names for things, up north things are often very different from the south. But that's ok I love when others like to learn about Australia, but at least here in Melbourne we are pretty Amerincanised too.
Also, I wouldn't put it past one of us Aussies to to invent a 'tall tale' loosely based on 'no truth what so ever' just to jangle a bait to see if an unwary & naïve traveller takes it as gospel. Nah, we wouldn't do that would we? Much .....
I would get home from school (Australia/Tassie) and have a peanut butter and home made raspberry jam sandwich with a hot cup of black tea back in the 70's/80's. You can buy sliced roast Turkey in all supermarket deli's and of course frozen\unfrozen Turkeys but more abundant at Christmas time, I sometimes have Turkey salad sandwiches. Beetroot/red beet is very common in Aus, in burgers and side salads mainly.
In Oz, if you forget where you are (i.e. NOT in the US) and dial 911 it diverts automatically to 000.
Also 000 was in the days of the rotary dial phones, thus hardest number to call.
This guy refers to Cairns a bit ~ so some of what he says are more location based. In the city we drive of a night time and aren't worried about animals on the road as they are up north or out in the country. We don't advertise alcohol or cigarettes, even at sporting events. The beetroot we put on our burgers are not raw, they have usually been cooked in vinegar and are soft. We have turkey in the deli to have on sandwiches, and there are wild turkeys everywhere but we don't eat them. Not disrespecting this guy either ~ he's just got his experience where he's at ~ which in some cases is very specific too.
You said the hats etc for stopping skin cancer were "Super Smart". It's great because the motto for the government Skin Cancer initiative is called "Sun Smart". Cheers.

One of the most terrifying drives I've ever done was in remote Western Australia at dusk, when the highway was literally lined with kangaroos on both sides of the road. We someone avoided them, but it was incredibly stressful to drive for hours like that.
It's pretty similar in many parts of the US though, I'm not sure that bloke has spent much time outside of big cities.
Absolutely love you guys! Please keep giving us reason to smile!
when driving at night the kangaroos can get mezmerized by the head lights and before you pass the the light is no longer in their eyes so they will often jump out onto the road and become road kill. Also in a lot of country areas at dawn and dusk its common to drive down the middle of the road so you have more of an option to swerve if needed.
Driving at night is fine in the cities. I regularly drive in regional Australia (not too outback though). It is wise to keep alert for wildlife day and night, as they vary in activities, some being nocturnal, wheras others are not. I was warned that dusk and dawn are the times to be particularly wary of wildlife. Driving into the sun complicates vision in this. You would often see a lot of roadkill on moonlit nights. That has been my experience, but I am sure our truckies would have so much more insights about this.
There is no restriction on driving at night. In rural areas you just need 5o be alert for animals, especially kangaroos.
The emergency numbers, 000 in Aussie and 111 in New Zealand went back to the old dial telephones. In each of these countries the dials were different and the emergency number was the number on the right hand end of the dial, as this was the fastest one to dial with a quicker return time for the dial to reset.
After American TV shows like 9-11, 911 was also set up as an alternative emergency number in NZ.
Oh Natasha beetroot on a burger is an amazing experience I do it all the time back in the UK
Tasmanian beer is up there with the best. Boags or Cascade, you can’t go wrong. Plenty of great micro breweries around as well. Beetroot on a burger is the best.
Being used to West End it is a good brew . I look for it when out. We have Big Shed Royal Park Adelaide that sponsor beer for our West Adelaide Basketball club
Boags and Cascade are watered down lolly water along the lines Of Great Northern. If you are drinking these beers it is a strong indicator that you are an ignorant bogan. The best beers bv far are the multitude from craft brewers around the country.
We drink a lot of beer- I prefer wine- but each state has a signature beer. These days, there is a huge amount of boutique beers that are being produced as well as pre-mixed cans of vodka/gin. Boutique gins are really taking off, as well.
Re: 33 Minimum wage - Industrial award minimum wages are an adult minimum wage. Most employment awards, which contain the employment conditions and wage rates for various roles covered under the award, will generally provide for Junior rates for employees under 21, at specified percentages of the adult wage. Eg 17yr old gets 60% of adult wage until they turn 18 when they will get 70%. This graduated system only applies to employment awards that specifically provide for junior rates to be paid. If the award doesn’t specify, the employee will receive the full wage regardless of junior age.
Emergency numbers existed before 'button' dialling. On a rotary dialling, 000 is the most awkward number to dial thereby making it less likely to be dialled by accident (by, say, a child playing). Similar for the UK 999.
Compulsory voting here is good because everyone has their vote counted. Compare that to the US where gerrymandering is rife and certain groups of people are disenfranchised so their vote is not counted which is beyond corrupt.
Also, I have seen this guy on other reaction videos and there’s a lot he gets wrong.
You picked up he was wrong about the driver point system in the States so …
And disposal systems are available here but most people don’t have one. We either compost or chuck it in the rubbish.
The peanut butter and jelly thing I did when I was a kid. My mum, who was English, used to make jelly out of apple or guava or loquat and I’d have that with peanut butter on a sandwich.
Yeah that's not how it works here...
@@TheNatashaDebbieShow sad but maybe one day. It’s your first amendment right so to make it compulsory shouldn’t be criticised. If you object to compulsory voting you can just show up, get your name ticked off and cast a blank vote or a donkey vote. At least you would be exercising your right.
It make policies more central to gain swinging votes. It develops 2 or 3 seats in each city as close to either side in power and makes election night a cliffhanger . Just as much there are rusted on seats that nominally never change ( famous last words)
The reason for the emergency phone number is 000 goes back to the old rotary dial phones, 0 was the shortest distance to dial in an emergency.
it was just about the longest.
These emergency numbers were created in the days of circular dial phones so it was really hard to miss dial 3 0’s because it was the last on the dial.
My mom used to love peanut butter and jam (she favored strawberry mostly but she'd try all sorts) but personally I've always found it a bit too sweet for me as I tend to prefer much more savory flavors (like the classic 'meat/egg, tomato and greens' or the oh so dreaded vegemite XD). As for other people I know... Nutella or honey mainly, though some jams (maybe with regular butter/margarine) tend to be the sweet spreads of choice.
I think it's not so much that no one ever has it here so much as we have a lot of sandwich options we like and ultra sweet stuff tends to be more of a niche pick; if you ever see a comparison of what foods we eat/how we eat them, you'll probably notice us Aussies tend to prefer things less sweet in general, even when it comes to stuff like how just sugar is in our bread and things (we still have and like a ton of sweet things mind you but they tend to be more seen as treats or party kinda things rather than daily morning/lunch sandwiches).
Also the more noticable any artificial flavors and colorings there are, the more likely it is that we'll gag so... Yeah. That's partly why grape jam is barely a thing here - requires added gelatin (and sometimes colorings and things) where as most other fruit jams are basically just pulped fruit and sugar/honey.
...I could honestly rattle on about this topic for ages really given how very much allergic to some colors and flavorings I am~ XD
Night driving isn't banned so much as a 'be prepared to be very cautious' thing and matters a lot more the more out in the country (bush and outback areas) you are rather than in city areas. Helps a ton to know how the wild life behaves as well so I wouldn't be surprised if Tristan's Aussie mates just told him it was outright banned to keep him off the roads until they could be sure he'd picked some stuff up.
...Road kill is sadly very common though. Used to periodically see dead kangaroos, low flying birds and the rare odd wombat off the side of the road when my dad drove me to school and it was always super depressing. And actually being responsible for road kill is just...
I love our wild life but I REALLY wish they weren't so prone to leaping out in front of cars or thinking just next to wheel of a parked car is a nice safe spot to curl up and sleep.
Pickled beetroot on burgers (or toasted sandwiches) is great! Not loved by everyone of course but I love the toasted stake sandwiches the local fish and chip shop does especially~ Just a slab of beef, beetroot, tomato and lettuce, all drizzled in bbq sauce but the way they ratio it it all is just MMmmm
G'day girls! Driving at dusk and dawn are the riskiest times predominantly out of town. Our Scrub Turkeys are protected here though nobody would want to eat them as the eating would be like munging out on an old leather boot hahaha
I avoid driving at night in the country. The issue with kangaroos is they are unpredictable, they can hop along side you and just turn right into a car. I heard on a radio show once that a European compny was trying to make a collision avoidance app for cars but they couldnt predict kangaroos. Wombats are so heavy and low to the ground, they can do a lot of damage.
Aussie here- the 000 phone number started in the era of rotary dial phones- the 0 had to be moved the greatest distance, so was unlikely to be dialed by accident. Cheers.
Weirdly, im half aussie half brit so a lot of your videos i can relate to
Perfect!!
Hi girls 👧👋 I’m half Aussie & half Brit and many of these things apply to both 🤙💙🌺
I'm half Aussie, half Brit AND half American! (and not too good at maths) So I can REALLY relate!
The Aussie slang would be a good video.
I will sometimes fast forward but not for you beautiful people. Your love and respect for each other and our respective militaries is amazing. I now try to " Love like Jazz and Be as strong as Tyson everyday", not easy but this inspires me. Semper Fi
The half Police Officer's are Liaison Officer's for our Aboriginal & Islander's. And I've never heard of no driving at night. And we have had Gobbers Peanut Butter & Jelly for about 20 years.
Gday! One thing that I love about our voting system in Australia is that it's private. I have absolutely no idea who my friends and family vote for. I could take a great guess at some because I know what policies they would support. We don't identify by a political party as it seems you do in your country.🤷♀️ I have voted for different parties in my lifetime, I just look at what they are offering. Identity politics has crept in so we really have to look at their policies and question the media. As far as our fashion goes 🤔 I dress the same as my Pearl Jam sisters in America. Jeans, flannos and boots 😉
I agree with you about not knowing/caring about how others vote. I have no idea which party my children have ever voted for, nor who my husband of 42 years or any of my friends vote for either. (and I used to be involved as an active member of the local branch of a political party.) However, I value having a good time with my friends and family too much to get caught up in silly arguments about the latest "fashion" in politicians and their politics. BTW I suspect my hubby is a swinging voter, but that's his business.
You CAN drive at night, that was a ridiculous statement ... This bloke is talking a lot of nonsense I am afraid, no one is banned from driving, you just have to be more aware when it's dark because of our nocturnal animals. I lived in the Bush (Country) in Western Australia for 15 years and both I and my Wife drove a lot at night, so long as you are careful and keep your speed down you will be fine....I think in the 15 years we lived there my Wife hit a Kangaroo once, and that was early in the morning...p.s. we both drove 1000 kilometres a week just to work and back because we worked at the Casino in Perth City. And we did this because we loved our five acres out in a beautiful little town Called "Toodyay" where my Wife had three horses and we had a few sheep and two little hand reared goats. My Wife also showed "Saint Bernard" dogs and our property out there was terrific for the animals to run on....anyway I am digressing here...my main point is that you certainly CAN drive at night ... p.s. I absolutely love your show you are two lovely and amazing ladies. 😘p.p.s. I our current minimum wage is approx $21.38 per hour or $812.60 per 38 hour week.
We have various payment schedules. Most are paid fortnightly and pay their mortgage fortnightly too. Some things are paid weekly, fortnightly, monthly, quarterly and annually.
Our school year starts late January through to mid December with 3 or 4 terms with one of two weeks holiday between them depending on which state you live in. That means that the kids are off for Christmas and the New Year. Our summer months are from December to February.
Not the first time I've heard him refer to 'the internet' as WiFi, which is just the connection between your device and modem/router (unless you have an ethernet cable connecting the two) and has a useful range of about 30 metres. Having said that, apparently our average internet speeds, particularly uploads, are well behind other developed countries.
As well, Australia invented wi-fi!
Wrong! Do some research on Hedy Lamar...fascinating life!
Research CSIRO WLAN
We have grape jelly, but you would call it jello 😉😅 I love blackberry jam or honey (we have beautiful honey) with my fresh peanut butter!!!! ☮️💗🇭🇲
I just made a comment that my kids loved peanut butter & honey. I have to admit it’s pretty good ✌🏼
I’m a west Aussie. I spent years living in the country and I drove thousands of kilometres at night. I only ever hit one kangaroo and a couple of rabbits over the years. I did have a close call with a cow once, but missed it.
I have never stayed in a hotel room in Australia that doesn't have a fridge/ freezer. Quite often there will be a tray for freezing ice but it is not that necessary when your drinks come out of the fridge ice cold and the room has air conditioning. I could only see that as being a problem if you are a slow drinker and you leave your glass to stand for a long time. I haven't been to the States, but I have heard the rooms often don't come with all the standard things we are used to here like fridge, microwave, utensils, iron, ironing board etc. Many often now come with washing machines and other stuff.
Tristan, from I can work out, spent his time in Australia mainly around backpacker centres like Byron Bay and north of Brisbane in Queensland. He has based his experiences on party towns and stayed in hostels. This video is outdated as well. To address a few stereotypes I see in his videos and others - I live in Sydney and have super fast internet. We don’t walk around with bare feet (except at the beach or in your own home). If you stick to the tourist areas and cities you won’t see a dangerous animal at all, except in a zoo. Kmart is a different store to the US Kmart , there is no connection at all. They are owned by different companies. There are so many more, but I’ll stop there.
Totally agree
I agree all countries should have the same emergency number
Thank you!!!! It just makes sense!
@@TheNatashaDebbieShow there is a universal emergency number for mobile phones. It is 112. This works in Australia but only if you are using a mobile phone
In Australia, style depends on where you are. You will NOT be allowed to enter quite a number of places unless you are dressed to a certain standard. Pubs will often have a sign saying that shirts are required. Footwear is often required also. If you’re going to a restaurant, you will often not be admitted if you’re wearing jeans. There’s a range of such things, that again, is dependent on where you are.
FYI: 000 was set when we has rotary phones. The idea was that it was harder to accidentally dial it because 0 was the furthest number away to dial. Much like for the US, the 9 would have served the same function, while the 11 are the quickest to dial to save time and make the dialing faster.
Also, because we have so much US television here, if you dial 911, it automatically gets rerouted to 000.
Yeah do the slang. Our slang is funny
Bit of info not exactly right in this.
When we heard the American errors we were wondering on the Aussie errors
like not advertising alcohol . I think he meant Tabaco maybe?
Voting is not only compulsory but it takes place on Saturday so it is easy. At each booth they have sausages bread and onion on sale which is called "a democracy sausage". Registration for voting is automatic. The election process is run by an independent organization called the electoral commission. The effect of compulsory voting is that parties do not focus on getting the base out. Instead they have to win over undecided voters. This means that politics is not as extreme as in America
Australian brush turkeys are not the same as US turkeys, they're a totally different bird. I've never eaten one, but imagine that as they're wild and not farmed, they're pretty tough, dry and stringy. That said, they are interesting to have around. They were pretty common in suburban areas when I was growing, but disappeared for 35 or more years. Their return to our Sydney suburb followed the end of aa lot of housing development when the large household blocks were subdivided into half acre building blocks (in the case of blocks around here, more likely to be quarter acre in other suburban areas.).The male plays a major part in the raising of chicks. When his mate is going to start laying eggs, he will build a sort of nest for them, constructed from leaves and twigs. The hen lays the eggs in these mounds but it is the male who goes back to check that all is well. He'll poke his beak into the mound in various places and add or remove leaf debris to keep the mound at the right temperature
Peanut butter and honey sandwich was always something I'd have as a kid... that and peanut butter on a celery stick..
Also Australia invented WIFI and its not the WIFI connection that's slow, it's the internet... they're not the same thing though people commonly refer to WIFI when they mean internet. Instead of fibre optic cables, our Govt in all their wisdom, kept the old copper cable to the nodes, to save a few bucks.. so even if you install fibre optic from your house to the node, it's slowed down by the ancient infrastructure. It's not that bad though, we can still stream 4k etc our upload speeds are like 50-100mbps.
And the financial year here, like America, ends and starts in Winter... usually when businesses have a lull and more time to compile their taxes... our winters just fall in different times of the year.
yeah... Peanut Butter (and Jelly) really is just an American thing, although we do eat peanut butter and probably more jam. Surprised that my sister who has been living in America for 30 years has adopted peanut butter into her life, when she never really ate it here. She's definitely a vegemite girl.
My kids used to love peanut butter & honey, their grandfather corrupted them 😂 At first I was horrified but thought I can’t judge if I don’t try it. It was actually pretty good✌🏼
@@Reneesillycar74 Yes, "PB&H" is good. I'm part-American but have lived in Oz for 27 years. Still eat the odd PB&J, but the "J" is Aldi strawberry jam, haha.
I have tried peanut butter and jam sandwich and have to stay I didn't like it. I like both condiments but not together... definitely an American thing
@@divineunion I really is a US thing - I'm surprised how many Aussies in these comments have said they eat PB and jam on a sandwich!
16:30 A burger with the lot in Australia traditionally comes with meat, cheese, lettuce, tomato, beetroot, pineapple, and sometimes egg. Also sometimes sauce. Although this was more widespread 10-20yrs ago. In recent times food outlets have been skimping on ingredients.
And bacon
Emu's Camels, Kangaroos, echidna's Buffalo's can all be ran into in Western Australia, Northern territory and Far North Queensland as well as crocs in some areas if you are 4wding. Yeah if you do drive at night you slow down under the speed limit and have really good quality Extra higbeam lightbars etc.
In Australia the US emergency number is mapped onto the Australian emergency number, So if a poor deluded yank gets into strife and stupidly rings 199, or whatever it is, it goes to 000.
The trouble with US voting is the ones that vote are usually the ones that shouldn't. mostly all Trump voters hahaha Tristran is from Texas.
Turkey is dry and horrible so Aussies don't really like it
Why eat dry turkey when we have great pork, beef and lamb and a wide selection of seafood?
Really enjoy your content different to the rest I love your interest in the subject matter. Thanks for the entertainment 👍🏼
Thanks so much!
Hello Ladies,
The difference in the school years between Australia and the USA is probably linked primarily to the weather. You should already know that your summer is in the middle of the calendar year (June /July or there abouts) whereas in Australia our summer occurs in December through to February. Perhaps you might ask yourselves when you would prefer to take your summer vacation in summer or in winter? I know that I prefer to have my vacation time in the part of the year that has the best weather, that way you can enjoy yourself more and not have to spend your time indoors to either stay warm or dry or both. As for Tristian, well best I not say what I am thinking.
Have a nice day.
Aussie here I love goober grape used to be able to get it here but haven't been able find it since I was a kid
The AFL lesson is over winter time here. So it helps to have a very oversized jersey so that you can put it on over the top of your coats and jumpers!
