Buckle up for a captivating encounter with our long-time listener from down under, Jeff Sinfield. We delve into a decade-long journey that started in 2008 when Jeff first discovered our blog, and how it helped him navigate through a tough patch. We raise a toast to his brother Mike, who recently hung up his boots from the police force and gear up to decipher the hidden secrets of Australian slang during Jeff's extended stay in the U.S.

That's just the tip of the iceberg or should we say, just a kangaroo hop in Jeff's fascinating world!  We compare notes on the weather of the Pacific Coast and Perth and explore all things San Francisco. If you think it ends there, hold your breath as Jeff takes us on a virtual Australian wildlife tour, from angry wombats to bird-eating spiders, it's an exhilarating ride. 

As if this wasn't exciting enough, we shift gears to explore local experiences. Imagine savoring the ambiance of open-air bars with rotating taps or relishing the never-ending breadsticks at Olive Garden, it's all about celebrating the simple joys of life. We share our experiences of beer tasting and supporting local craft breweries. Lastly, we share some fun facts about OzzyMan, the Aussie Youtube sensation and decode the origins of the phrase "Fair Dinkum". So, tune in for an adventure-filled conversation that promises to be as thrilling as a roller-coaster ride.
