About this podcast
What happens when an American and an Austrian sit down together to debate culture? Is it going to be a victory for US? Will the Wiener take it all? Are they even making sense? Listen in and find out more about living la vida loca in Vienna & Austria.
Depending on traveling and “real life” work, we fry new episodes whenever we can sneak away from the day job — think of it as Schnitzel served when it’s golden, not when the clock says so.
