American Idiots Abroad


Hey y'all, welcome to the American Idiots Abroad homepage! We're just two Americans studying in the UK, trying to make sense of all the differences and similarities between the two countries, one episode at a time. Email us your thoughts/corrections/stories at AIAhosts@gmail.com!

Megan and AJ are excited to have self-described avid listener MildaMay (personally known as Mathilda Riley) as the guest for this special birthday episode of the podcast. In honor of Megan's special day, we discuss the quintessential British birthday and other country-exclusive holidays. Our American listeners will find out why the innocent-sounding Bonfire Night is actually so morbid, and y'all British peeps will get clued in on the origins of Black Friday. Shout out to Jess Ellis for having us on her podcast, St. Andrew for slaying a dragon, and happy birthday Megan and her Bro-la Guinto! The songs featured in this episode are "Down" and "Hold Your Tongue" by MildaMay. You can find your hosts at @iamsolamusic and @ajmarksofficial, our guest at @mildamaymusic, and be sure to email your questions/comments/braided pole pics at AIAhosts@gmail.com
