    Animal Magic

    Animal Magic

    Pets, critters and animals are such a fundamental part of Overseas life. Listen to Ginger Gerald´s tales - some warm and lovely; others rather scary and involving scorpions, crocs and tarantulas. Before you make yourself comfy for your weekly listen to the pod - just make sure there are no cockroaches kicking about!

    The football episode

    The football episode

    GG has been rabbiting on about food & drink recently and so this week, keeping alive the approach of "talk about the things you love",  is focusing on football. Playing, watching, reading, talking and FEELING football - wherever you are in thew world. As always there´s the odd anecdote from back in the day, but some great stories from Brazil and  Venezuela as well as México. What is it about watching your kids play football that gets you so excited and nervous? Have you ever been one of those "over involved touchline parents"? It´s all there today - particularly for those who like a bit of footy talk - so relax and enjoy!
