"Gay" (May 23, 2002)

A smash hit in its native Australia, Kath & Kim focuses on two suburban women joined by their lack of both good taste and any sort of a clue. The second episode is just titled "Gay," and to discuss it, we were joined by Glenn Charlie Dunks, a real-life Australian homosexual who's spent a great deal of time thinking about art, culture and the differences between Australian and American media. He also taught us several vocabulary lessons, because as we learned, we speak English but not necessarily Australian.
