    American Problems that Europeans Don’t Understand! - EP 140

    American Problems that Europeans Don’t Understand! - EP 140

    Every country has its own culture that is filled with positives and negatives. The United States is a massive land with a unique position as an almost physical "island", bordering only two other countries. Being located so far from Europe means life in the USA is of course going to be a bit different than it is "across the pond."  This week we'll be reacting to an article titled, "American Problems Europeans Do Not Understand." Just to be clear, this episode isn't about "American bashing." We'd never do that! We're here to discuss daily problems that Americans face that are simply not something Europeans normally come across!

Great guys&show

Great show guys!

I really love the podcast. The mix between new Ideas and reappearing formats is fun to listen to and seems to be always well thought out. As a German living in an international dormitory I really like listening to the impressions we germans make on foreigners and also what things that are normal for me are like in other countries. I really like the way you narrate and your voices are great to listen to. The only thing I always find hella annoying is the section about writing a review on Apple podcast, since I always forget to do it, so here it is now;) But seriously, great work, keep it going. LG

Hilarious and Helpful

My husband and I moved to Berlin 3 weeks ago from Washington, DC. We decided to move to Germany about 8 months ago and since then I have been soaking up everything i can about being an expat. I only found the podcast about a month ago and have since listened to a large chunk of episodes. The podcast is not only incredibly entertaining and engaging but also gives some awesome tips for anyone who might be transitioning to Germany. As someone who has listened to a number of podcasts about being an expat, this provides a fresh perspective and unique insights often missed by most of the others.
