How Did I Survive The Aussie Wildlife? | Growing Up In Australia
About this episode
Juan's baby is coming, so what sort of childhood can she expect here?
In Episode #385 of 'Musings', I discuss: Juan's brand new baby girl fresh out of the oven, why I was attacked by my friend's dog (probably because I was sadistic), my annoyance with Steve Irwin, why climate change or war probably won't effect the Australian environment, the beauty of Australian childhood and some changes you'll see to the show over the next month or so.
Huge support from McIntosh, Dave Jones, Cole McCormick, Bitcoinplusfood & Badcareeradvicechad. So so encouraging, thank you all!
