🇦🇺 Thanks so much for watching! If you make it to at least the 11:45 mark you're allowed to click this link 😉 maps.app.goo.gl/LpDaYtg8bDMk3Nqf9
pinned and no reply...? hold on lemme fix that rq..
I've been following you when you were only at 20k in subscribers and mentioned at the time to come visit Australia! So gutted you didn't get a chance to explore Melbourne. When you do come back make sure to try a HSP (Halal Snack Pack). Yes absolutely not Australian but adopted as a staple food item thats considered "Aussie"
so happy to see your channel grow bro
Plot twist, the Outback Steakhouse in Aspley you went to ironically was a Lone Star Steakhouse previously many years ago, and was popular back then. Only scratched the surface of things. Sauce on the pies and sausage rolls is next level. And next time you must explore the pubs and their food, that's where the real outback steakhouses are.
@@lachlanmccourt2704 and get a mixed grill!
This dude really went and licensed "American Idiot" for his video about a trip to Australia. What an absolute legend.
He could’ve just used royalty free music for that part, but he didn’t. Real king shit.
@@Longdongyamom No one is snitching, he really did license the music read the description of the video. Nothing for YT to do, he paid for ability to use the music.
Baller move 😂
I’m more surprised that it only cost $32 to license American Idiot 😂
@@EmTekTube its probably something called a needle drop, meaning he gets the ability to use 20 to 30 seconds of the song.
Bro apologises for saying Queensland pretty normally, but then absolutely butchers the word Kookaburra immediately after without a second thought
Cairns 😅
Omg CaiRns got me 😂
Yeah, I wasn't sure if it was because I'm a kiwi, but "Kweenzlind" sounds about right lol
@@svendenhowserhow is it pronounced? Kerns?
@@BostonBluesCairns pronounced more like Cans. Like how Americans pronounce the first half of Kansas
This dude went 110% american tourist mode in australia. Legend.
finally someone that actually uses vegemite right and doesn't just immediately call it a 1/10
I'm an aussie watching an american fly to australia to try an australian themed american restaurant in australia.
It's not even Australian themed. Their food is American rubbish.
Are you in America? Cause then you’d be an Australian in America watching an American fly to Australia to try and Australian themed American restaurant in Australia.
And then, somewhere, there could be an American in Australia reading the comment of some Australian in America who is watching an American fly to Australia to try and Australian themed American restaurant in Australia.
And thennnnnn
Inception 😂
are you also tsk tsk-ing at his moronic choices for sightseeing?
I'm an aussie replying to an aussie watching an american fly to australia to try an australian themed american restaurant in australia.
Oh god I did not realise I was going to be in a youtube video when i went to work 🤦♀️, I was the hostess that sat you that day, thank you for your positive review it really helps and I’m glad you enjoyed 🫶
Haha oh my gosh Nyree! So glad this video made its way to you. Thanks for your kindness!
I love this XD
Probably one of the only positive reviews it has lol
Why are you so blurry?
I’m surprised people actually work there. I’ve walked in for lunch as I was working locally and never saw a staff member.
Most Aussies typically aren't as patriotic as Americans but goddamn nothing gets an Aussie more proud of their country than seeing others experience it first-hand.
It’s called nationalism and jingoism. Australia doesn’t really bomb and invade other countries but we do here in Murica. You don’t have billion dollar stealth bomber flying over the start of your AFL matches.
This is the most respectful adaptation of an Australian vacation experience I have ever seen! Thank you Sam, for exploring our country and experiencing some the customs and cultures we have here. 😊
I enjoy that instead of just assuming even basic things like paying, he made an effort to look it up.
I’ve lived 5 minutes from that Outback my entire life (my gym is literally in the drone shot) and drive past it every day and can confidently say I have never actually been. As soon as this dude said he was flying into Brisbane I knew it had to be “that random Outback in Aspley”. Sure enough it was. How utterly random. I’m subscribing purely for the commitment to the bit and for showing me the inside of a restaurant I’ve been past a thousand times.
I live in Carseldine.., I’ve been twice. It’s Awful
@@alexbeesley1144 Yeah don’t get me wrong I’m in no rush to check it out 😂 but funnily enough I did try it when I was in America just to see what they term Outback or Aussie food. Equally trash but also funnily the exact opposite of this video haha
same here
I'm the same. I've been to literally every shop in the same complete and never stepped foot inside outback. The only things that's tempted me to go in is the blooming onion 😊
@@kktranget one to go and you won’t regret it. The blooming onion is culinary perfection
Fun fact: Around of 90% of Blooming Brands (Outback's parent company) international revenue comes from Brazil of all places
EDIT: Just checked, unfortunately after the pandemic the revenue dropped to only 83%
🤯 ok what?? Haha that is wild
I live in Brazil and outbacks are everywhere. There are 3 in my city!
@@therealsamreid you should try fogo de chao in the us and in brazil and compare them like outback here!
@@therealsamreid Brazilians LOVE them some beef.
Costa Rica also has Outback and Longhorn steakhouses and both of them are considered "high end" eateries which is funny to think about as an american.
Yes, a meat pie is usually eaten with a big dob of tomato sauce splashed on top. And as my father (who was an Irish immigrant) taught me as a kid, the measure of a true-blue Aussie was being able to eat a pie with sauce one-handed (and these were the old-school mass-produced square "footy pies" with a runny mince & gravy filling and a thin, soggy pastry base served in a shallow & fragile foil tray) without spilling the whole lot down the front of your shirt and into your lap; the reason why it was essential that you be able to achieve this one-handed was because you'd [naturally] be holding a frosty can of beer in the other hand.
nah, only on the crappy pies with no flavour like a fourNtwenty
@@JimmyRaptisblasphemy
I can't believe how much this bloke got done while he was here. Well done, mate.
As an Australian this made me really happy to see. you hit like pretty much everything you need to to experience Australia and did your research too. 10/10
Apart from calling a Land Cruiser a Land Rover. This is unforgivable.
@@Clynikali would move to Australia just for the JDM cars!
Yeah he's done a good un'...top marks👍
@@Clynikalfun fact: despite being 0.8% of the global population, we have roughly 10% of the cruisers ever made 😂 10%!!!
How the heck did you take a video about outback steakhouse, a traditional very un-australian thing. And turn it into one of the best video about Australia by an American, well done sir, this has earned you a subscription
Exactly what I was thinking! Close to the end of the food portion I checked to see if there were any other videos of your time in aus to see some blog type stuff then I was pleasantly surprised when the video went on after Outback Steakhouse, so respectful and great to see instead of being blissfully ignorant as some tourists can be, he seemed to really care about getting it right and admiring - I’ve watched some of his videos before but I also subbed from this video, it was great!
‘Is a meat pie a breakfast item?’
It is if you’re a first year builders (aka ‘chippy’) apprentice, washing it down with a litre can of Monster at 6am 😂
Redbull or V will also suffice lol
Few smokes too
Nah, dare iced coffee
No, he said is sausage roll a breakfast item?
Sausage roll or meat pie doesn't matter both are breakfast lunch and dinner items 😂
No, that purple slice was a passionfruit. They would be prolific in Hawaii.
There used to be thousands of aboriginal dialects but over time, they have been lost and we are making huge efforts to keep the remaining 200 or so.
My man flew across the world just to end up in Aspley 💀
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 My thoughts the same!
When I went to the Aspley restaurant it was almost empty; that was in 2017. We don’t have an Outback in VIC.
Wait what?, you married him?, your man?....
Fr that’s what i thought. He should have gone to Pacific Fair on the Gold Coast 😂
@@MegaDirtyberty wat?
Sausage roll and ice break for breaky, Meat pie and coke for lunch: The cuisine of an Aussie Tradie.
Along with a V and a durrie. Then you're all set.
shows how we are absolutely not a food country and even Outback Steakhouses menu has more food inventions than our entire country does
Sausage Rolls and Meat pies are British, not Australian
@@overthewebb exactly, and I knew that anyway. Australia never had its own identity.
@@overthewebbif you’re not an Aussie then shut up. They’re literally an iconic Aussie cuisine. The top being a Bunnings snag
Dude... you seriously flexed your filmmaking chops with this one. Your eye for cinematography right down to your usage of music is nothing short of inspiring. Shout out to the Air BnB Lizzy
Man, just thank you for being respectful and giving us a fair go, that’s a fundamental part of Australian culture, you’re welcome back anytime
As an Australian, you really went all out in this vid. Shame you didn't get to experience the iconic Sausage Sizzle. Thank you for experiencing our beautiful country and would love for you to come back for future content. 🇦🇺
Sausage sizzle haha way overrated ,
i'd love for more people to discover our chicken salt!
@pineapplesideways3820 your bloody kidding me mate
The other thing he missed was chips with chicken salt. I guess he needs to do another trip.
@@pineapplesideways3820 you're dreamin' mate
Omg a Wiggles collab may have been even more iconic than the Jonas Brothers
Jonas Brothers AND the Wiggles
#WigglesWaffles
To think the Wiggles used to be a rock band called the cockroaches.
I had dinner with a Wiggle once. Well, he sat at a table next to us. It was Greg, the tall yellow one. Guess what he was wearing? A grey skivvy.
@@shenysys The Wiggles have actually done pub shows just to hit that nostagia button for all those that grew up with them 😂
mate this is the best review of home i’ve seen. you’ve paid due respects to every outlook of our country and not come off as a typical american tourist. hats off to you, come back another time
Outback was opened because a group of rich dudes wanted a spot to have drinks and a steak after a round of golf. It got it's theme becase Crocodile Dundee was SUPER popular while they were hatching their genius plan to eat and drink for free by building their own restaurant. I worked for one, and the brand is very proud of it's origin story, and it's a central part of the onboarding process when you're hired. Another fun detail that they're weirdly proud of-- an inventor local to their original location loved it and wanted to help them streamline the Bloomin Onion. He fabricated a customized potato cutter (like for fries). They didn't accept his invention because they didn't think it was worth paying for it (he offered it up VERY cheap). He spent so much time on it and had no other use for it, so he just gave it to them for free with 0 contract etc. Naturally they immediately got a patent and now it's a cornerstone part of their very dumb lore...
To be fair starting a restaurant so your mates and you can sit around drinking and eating steak for free is a very australian origin story.
8:16 "Toowoomba Salmon"
Salmon? In Toowoomba? It's over 100km from the ocean lmao.
Genuinely made me laugh. 😂
Hahaha and probably another 2000km to where you’ll actually find farmed salmon and like 10000km from where you’d find one wild!
There's fresh water salmon
@@valkyrja-- buddy, you still aren't finding salmon native to toowoomba. It'd be like finding one in the middle of Kansas.
@@valkyrja-- there isn't any freshwater salmon in Toowoomba lmao.
@@civicnox hahaha if only they knew
I love it. You make a joke, people take it seriously, and you take it as a challenge not only to prove them somewhat wrong (which I know isn't the main point of the video). But you also explain your side well, take the opportunity to experience their culture even if it's at the surface, and have the time of your life with something that many could say was a once in a lifetime experience.
Very well made, I love how much your videos feel like a documentary/movie. I love your style and thank you for showing us your experiences and even educating other people on what you've learned from your time there along with what research you did. It was so well done, I felt like I was right there with you.
100% what I was going for - thank you for the kind words!
@@therealsamreid You missed a trick by not ordering a Fosters - an Aussie beer that is the Outback equivalent in Europe, It is sold in Australia, regardless of what Aussies may tell you, it's just not as widespread as in Europe.
@@FlatDerrick Also in the US.
@@FlatDerrick Supposedly the beer they really drink is Coopers.
@@jknaus23 I thought it was state dependant and split between Coopers and VB, but I know 4x is pretty popular still too.
As a Queenslander on the Gold Coast I find your pronunciation of Queensland is acceptable either way. Australian food - kanga bangers (kangaroo meat sausages) , meat pies, and we fight New Zealand about the origins of lamingtons and pavlova. Other than that, yep our food is what you'd find in the US or UK. Our bread doesn't tend to be as sweet as bread in the US.That pie looked like about a 6 to me too but the best pies are from Yatala - just off the freeway half way from Gold Coast to Brisbane. The "koala" signs are really warnings about drop-bears, an aggressive and carnivorous variety of koalas that our tourism industry suppresses information about, to avoid scaring off tourists. Hope you enjoyed the rest of your stay and i'm looking forward to seeing the rest of your videos!
I love how thoughtful and conscientious you are in what you do. This was such a pleasure to watch!
For those who are interested, the restaurant vistied in the video has only been a Outback steakhouse for a few years as they rebranded from a Lonestar which was a texan theme restaurant.
Oh wow! Lone star! I remember that now. Another decent easy family restaurant gone the way of sizzler and their magic toastie bread 😢
Christ that actually blew the dust off a whole heap of memories from what’s gotta be at least 25 years ago. Cheers man!
Better throw in a big ole 🖕to food star just for good measure lol
We still have them in NZ
@@kelly6491 mhm. i miss sizzler somuch
We had a Lonestar in Chicago, and I used to eat that regularly with my mom.... I miss that place 😊
Where I lived in Leumeah we had an Outback Steakhouse for years. It’s still Outback Steakhouse today & there is a new one that was built recently. Lonestar was its own thing that’s come & gone over the years. I remember when I was a kid Lonestar had peanuts that people just threw the shells on the floor
By no means done with the video but your work feels like it's getting stronger and stronger brother. The confidence in edit and style , I love to see it.
Your*
We have Bundaberg products here in America as well (WA State) and their ginger beer is my favorite ginger beer of all! I actually have some in my fridge right now but they’re much smaller 12.7 oz (375 mL) bottles. Don’t forget to gently and briefly turn the bottle upside down before opening because the ginger can settle on the bottom. Cheers! 🍻
They are already upside down down here downunder Mate, we turn them right side up. haha no that's a real good tip.
@@TonyFromSydney woooow 😂
When driving on the opposite side of the road please remember this trick... KEEP THE PASSENGER'S DOOR TO THE CURB SIDE!!! You can't go wrong..
unironically it looks like he got a good spread of australian food and experiences he even experienced vegemite how an aussie would eat it. truely looks like a wonderful memorable experience where you could not possibly have a single regret. The best place you could find a parm for anyone wondering is actually just a pub. its generally considered a pub food.
>he even experienced vegemite how an aussie would eat it
That's funny, I didn't see him eat it out the jar with a spoon.
Ironically vegemite was owned by an American company for many years (Kraft) from the 50's until 2017
"people eating blooming onions left and roighhht" cracked me up 😂😂
massive props for highlighting sunscreen! travellers are worried about snakes and spiders but it's the sun that'll get ya
As an aussie I really enjoyed how comprehensive this video was for the short time you stayed. Genuinely the best approach I've seen to a short Aus tour, and you really ticked off so many essentials. Definitely earned a sub. Cheers
You saw more of Australia in a week than some people who live here all their lives see.
Great job.
its true, i've lived in brisbane for 20 years and i've never left this place (I'm 20 lol)
its cheaper to holiday overseas from Perth
@@holobolo1661Only if you go to South East Asia that it would be cheaper .
The exchange rate is super favourable for Americans, plus Australia is so expensive, can see the world and experience different cultures for cheaper, no point exploring our backyard it’s a rort for cashed up tourists
@@karstentop4276 It isn’t cheap to visit Europe . It is cheaper to visit Asia .
I'm Irish, and I went to an Outback when I was in Florida a few years ago. I don't remember what I ate but I do remember being given a free bloomin' onion by a server because they made an extra by accident and it was my brother's birthday. I'll always like Outback for that.
Come back to Florida we like Europeans
Driving on the left-hand side of the road.
Travellers were vulnerable to attacks and muggings. So they’d keep to the left of the road to pass oncoming people, with their swords ready in their right hands to defend themselves from assault if necessary.
So it's the Romans 1620 years ago in what is now England that probably started it. 64 countries around the world drive on the left .
Man videos like this reminds me how much I need to actually go check out the rest of my "back yard" and probably revisit some places I saw as a kid.
Mate...well done on mentioning Bunnings and the snag. That's some serious deep dive on our culture.
Fruit at 21:36 is passionfruit!
THANK YOU
I've never seen it cut like that before. I've only ever seen it cut in half. Odd.
@@jilletdelphine you lose one of the best parts of a passionfruit, the juice, when it's cut into quarters. When it's in half it's a makeshift cup for the juice.
@@jilletdelphine Usually you eat it like you'd eat a yogurt cup.
Just spoon it out as the internals are very goopy rather than solid enough to wedge like an orange.
Passionfruit is from America. Like potatoes and tomatoes and most beans.
I'm American, but we lived in Australia when our kids were little. Your experiences brought back such great memories. My now adult kids still talk about vegemite on toast and fairy bread. Great video!
Fairy bread wow! Been so long since I had that, it's a staple at Aussie kids birthday parties / town fairs.. For anyone wondering, its white bread with butter and multi-colored cake sprinkles, with the crust cut-off and then sliced into long pieces.
8:56 "When Americans do an Australian accent" then immediately shows one of the most world's most famous Canadians.
I'm just teasing. I quite enjoyed your video from over here in Canada.
Hearing an American talk about Bunnings Warehouse brings a proud tear to the eye 🥹
Worst hardware store in Australia.
To be fair it's very similar to Home Depot or Lowes here in the US
@@darmou Funnily enough we have a store called Lowes in Australia, it's a sorta budget clothing chain though.
@@darmou We did have Lowes here under the name "Masters" years ago which was badly managed by Woolworths group due to fast expansion. I was really excited because everyone shops at Bunnings and Lowes would've been a great competitor for prices. Bunnings just monopolizers everything. Other than that we have Miter10 which is a smaller store but I shop at them or the local timber yards.
I have a love/hate relationship with Bunnings abut I am interested in what you regard as a "better" hardware store
As a brisbane resident, for the short time you were in aus, you had the perfect itinerary. Cairns, gold coast, sunny coast, getting that all done in such a short time is pretty impressive, and all the places you went to are the best places we have to offer. Even the foods, you had, great choice. Just maybe not the pie for breaky
the amount of driving in a foreign country on the other side of the road was astounding
Lol nah nothing wrong with a pie for breakfast!
Gotta respect the algorithm for recc'ing this because I'm completely sold by you closing your video with a Les Mis song.
the sensual koala moment was everything
As an Australian I loved this video. Please everyone else visiting put tomato sauce (ketchup) on your meat pie. You are welcome.
Another helpful tip, not just a little bit of sauce, but like a lot.
Tomato sauce is not ketchup 😭 I stopped asking for it after like the 3rd time of getting tomato sauce 😂 taste is too different for my liking.
@@spacetimegeezyketchup is way too sweet
A lot of people incorrectly think we just call ketchup tomato sauce but nope, they have totally different ingredients! I discovered this when I worked in a warehouse that sold both ketchup and tomato sauce, I thought it was odd to sell the same thing with just a different name and I looked at the ingredients on them.
Tomato sauce is more vinegary and less sugar than ketchup but agreed - it’s essential for a good pie/sausage roll experience. I would gag trying to eat them without sauce - way too dry 😂
Considering nothing was planned, you checked off just about every major box you could do here! Massive props
Except for going to the actual outback which makes up 70% of Australia. Obviously not possible on a short stay on what is a continent.
Other than the short Great Barrier Reef and Great Ocean Road trips, he never saw the country and nature outside the confines of civilization.
This is easily some of the best content I’ve seen on UA-cam in 10 years of watching. Keep it up Sam! Your content is genuinely amazing and I know you’ll get some more recognition.
Watching and hearing about your experience of the Great Barrier Reef near brought a tear to my eye. Glad you enjoyed yourself and love you’re work mate. Subscribed.
I'm Aussie and love that you were trolling us. The people complaining were just dense!
That's the great thing about us Aussies, we can laugh when people mock us.
As an Aussie I actually learned something, apparently there are Outback Steakhouses here! And then not at all surprised to learn that they are all in the most bogan areas of our major cities.
@@nunya2171for years I thought the closest thing we had to Outback Steakhouse was Hogs Breath
@@starlightlilly7203 Having never set foot in a Hog's breath I will take your word for it, but I had always thought along the same lines. I also seem to remember something about a large chunk of Hog's Breath being owned by a bikie gang, essentially being used to launder their drug money,.
It's refreshing seeing people able to live their dreams out. I clicked for the video title but was prompted to watch the whole thing because I was genuinely curious as to how you would enjoy your other days. It seems like you optimized your time and had an amazing trip. Also your editing and video production seems to keep getting better, great vid.
FINALLY a cost breakdown that includes ALLLLLLL of the ingredients, not just the ones assumed to be in the pantry.
This is by far the most creative video I have seen on UA-cam. Thanks for the excellent content
"Karens" 😂 Cairns = say it like Cans
Forgot to write that this is actually a great video, very well done
nah, americans pronounce the r. you wouldn't expect an american to say "melbin"
If we are allowed to drop the R roll in the USA for like New York, they are allowed to hit the R.
As an Aussie, I’m impressed with the research you actually put into this. Well done. You can come back whenever you want ❤
The Aboriginal dancers are so talented. I’m so proud that they got featured!
Mate, we're not that particular about 'standing on ceremony'/ being exact, unless we're engineering stuff. Our golden rule is: "She's right mate!" Pies & sausage rolls depend on the skill of the cook of course, but yeah, we love em', along with Turkish kebabs, Thai/ Asian, Greek, Italian & Aussie lamb/beef/seafood barbecues. Outback Steakhouse I've eaten there once. For an American tourist you seemed able to pack in so much for such a short visit - well done son. After about a month or two, if you can afford the accommodation & some quality food, many don't want to leave. Coffee here, is IB, the best by world standards thanks mostly to the Italian and Greek migrants who came to Oz after WWII. In the late 1950/60's they brought us European cuisine, proper coffee and liqueurs. Many came with great a work ethic & managed to carve out a new life away from the devastation of Europe after WWII. You did some excellent close-ups of kangaroos, endearing critters unless one comes through your windscreen at 110km/h, or a wombat takes out your entire front suspension. They keep tow truck operators quite busy. I was a kid in the 1950/60's and we watched a lot of American content and cartoons. FYI: Many cartoons like the Flintstones, except for the voice overs, were drawn & produced right here in Oz... along with movies and awesome music from the 1970's to this day. So yep, there's solid American & British connections in Aussie culture. These two cultures control considerable interests 'down-under', not that I subscribe to a spinning earth theory, or being held captive upside-down by gravity 🙃, it's buoyancy, not gravity that keeps us grounded, despite the academic brainwashing. Anyway, thumbs up for a well produced/ presented UA-cam. Our American brothers are always (well usually) most welcome to our shores. Cheers from Sydney, AU.
I'm sure the comments are going to be full of things that you should have seen or needed to do but honestly I am just glad you came and had such a fun time. Well done on packing so much into a short time and looking forward to more when you come back next time.
The man just puts out banger after banger after banger. The absolute dedication to quality is insane
Found your video by accident.
I really appreciate how respectful this was while exploring a part of where I live. Thank you.
As an Aussie, you did a fantastic job touring Australia you did almost everything an Aussie would want you to, I hope you enjoyed our country and at the end of the day that’s all that matters. Thank you for coming and documenting our country beautifully
Hey Sam! I don’t know if you remember but I commented on one of your previous videos at the end of last year saying that I’m searching for jobs and your videos gave me motivation to not give up…..
Well, I landed a job in January and have been working there for 3 months, it’s been really awesome. Thank you so much!!!! More power to you!!!✌🏻
This has to be one of the most thorough and respectful videos I have seen about my own country, something Australians have in common with Americans is we are very proud of our country and its culture so to see this review is just amazing, loved the whole video and watched it in its entirety, keep it up this was awesome!
As an aussie I flamin love outback steakhouse, me n the missus go all the time, we went for our anniversary one year.
Australians RESPECT history which is why the AFL plays "old time music" and by the way, the fans love it.
Yo, the outback steakhouse is around the corner from a place I used to lived in.
Also, sauce on a meat pie or sausage roll is quite common. Typical sauces are tomato sauce (ketchup) or BBQ sauce.
A snag also usually comes with caramelised onions, and most people would also add a sauce on top of it.
Hope that helps.
This type of content is why Sam deserves so many more subs
A silly joke premise, turned into a bigger adventure, and very well crafted video at the end!
Man, you came out here in the most humid summer we've had in so long - and that's saying something! It just did not shift until literally, like, the last week. Props to you for surviving it.
Great video about us Aussies, thanks buddy I watched the whole video, very enjoyable.
That zoo cut was one of your best cuts to date. Loved the video! Keep it up.
As an Aussie you really hit this out of the park mate. Well researched you've earned yourself a sub
This video is awesome. Even the premise alone would be enough to carry it.
If Australia had a national dish it would be a chicken parmigiana. Especially down south. It's the classic pub feed you can get anywhere
Dude, you are living the dream and spreading a positive message. I hope nothing but the best for you and this channel Sam!
I just returned from studying abroad at the University of Queensland. I had many of the exact same experiences from staying at surfers paradise, going to the Australia Zoo, scuba diving at Cairns, and even going to a footy match! This video was phenomenal felt like I was back in Australia!
i'm aussie and i just have to say how much i love this
i think ive only been to outback steakhouse once. loved the passionfruit throwing you completely. your vegemite amount on the toast was perfect. im a sucker for vegemite avocado toast too
idk i love how earnest you are about learning about australian food, culture, and pronunciations. this video is so well done and makes me keen to go back up to queensland
ETA: "each time has a theme song but its like. an old timey theme song" YESSS!!! my mum is incessant with her happy team at hawthorne
I am Australian, the algorithm kept pushing this to me, and I am happy it did. You are good at covering information succinctly without it being too simple. You explained the Bunnings snag without even tasting it better than most! Good job algorithm!
Sam this was a wonderful and respectful showcase of my home country - honestly one of the best I’ve seen. Your presentation style (as always) is just a delight to watch. I appreciate you taking the time to engage with a small piece of Indigenous culture as this is something often overlooked in travel videos to Australia - the traditional custodians of this land deserve our respect.
It’s a shame you didn’t get to spend much time in Melbourne (the city I call home) as we’re known for our culture of sport, live music, food, and art! And also our trams!! And Victoria is just teeming with amazing national parks. I hope you come back again soon to visit! You’re always welcome 🩷
Sam is the most underrated UA-camr of this era by far. Great video like always!
I didn't have much hope that this would not be just another American flies to Australia and gets everything wrong, video but I'm glad I watched it. I enjoyed that, mate and one of the most accurate, fair and insightful in terms of understanding our particular sensibilities about things broadly, I have ever watched - across all video content genres.
Well done. Subbed. You're very likable. Glad you enjoyed your trip.
Subbed.
That was a sweet video Sam, thanks for sharing!
Yes "shrimp on the barbie " is from that commercial and from the guy in the commercial, Paul hogan. he used that phrase on australian TV in a comedy show and was asked to be a tourism ambassador and use it in ads for american TV. it led to him becoming famous here and even got him a few movies.
Great Video Sam! I'm from Australia and love your videos. I would have never thought you would make any videos Australia-related. I'm a massive AFL fan and am so glad you attended a game. To me, it is the greatest game on the planet.
When I first watched a video of yours I read your Chanel name and thought "There is an AFL player with the same name" Never did I imagine that an American like yourself would stumble upon his existence. Interestingly enough, my Dad actually provided piano lessons to Sam Reid of the Sydney Swans over 20 years ago.
It was truly amazing see an American do Australia right. You've truly done us proud! As an Aussie myself it looked like an awesome trip and u truly made the most of our backyard. Thank you for not being an American idiot.
There has been so many before. But you are the only one that has nailed it. Well done. Great video.
Thanks for coming and experiencing us mate. have a good one.
I don’t usually watch videos all the way through because they all began with the same sort of content but you really have a great way to make it feel like interesting and fun, enjoyable and you manage to get my attention all the way throughout your video, very well done 👍🏻 and I love it so much, thank you for sharing this amazing experience and blessings!!!
Mate you did great!! Thanks for coming to visit my home town of Cairns and showcasing it like you did, a great job. The reason you saw folks at the footy match eating a pie with sauce on it, is because they are the ones right out of the freezer commonly known here as a mystery bag (Aussie slang)! horse meat and god knows what else is in them and the sauce is what gives it the flavour, the ones you ate are the good versions made in house from quality ingredients! Sad to say when I was travelling around your great country back in 2014 the Coffee scene was really crook and the best coffee we found was at Maccas in Times Square was Caffè latte served out of an automated machine!
I have no clue what sort of videos you post other than this, but this is awesome. Subbed cause of this
gotta respect how much effort goes into Sam’s content
Travelling acoss the globe to Aspley Outback Steakhouse is wild
the great part about australia being in the southern hemisphere is that even when the onions aren't bloomin' in the north you can hop on a plane to eat a freshly bloomed onion.
Awesome vid mate. This is definitely one of the better and more accurate videos of a yank touring Aus 👍🏻
Love catching a post so early! Your whimsical but earnest nature make your videos such comfort watches for me. Plus they’re always interesting
The fruit at 21.36 is a passion fruit. The passion fruit (Portuguese: maracujá and Spanish: maracuyá, both from the Tupi mara kuya "fruit that serves itself" or "food in a cuia") is the fruit of a number of plants in the genus Passiflora.
