**PSA!!** Pattaya Down Under is going to be LIVE at the Heat Lounge on Soi Lengkee from 5pm Friday 12th Sepember (Indochina Time) and will be LIVE STREAMING to our subscribers on Patreon from 10pm AEST (7pm Intochina Time) that same night! So, either come join us for a cold beer, or - if you're not in Pattaya and if you're not already subscribed, jump on over to patreon.com/pattayadownunder and subscribe now!!

This week the crew tackles everything you need to know before you even set foot in Pattaya. We’re talking flights, visas, travel insurance (because you will do something stupid on a scooter), and why airport fast-track might just save your sanity.

They’ll walk you through the Bangkok-to-Pattaya shuffle, the real story on accommodation, how not to get ripped off changing money, and which phone plan won’t leave you stranded mid-bar crawl. Oh, and the must-pack essentials you’ll thank us for later (spoiler: it’s not Vegemite).

Expect the usual Aussie banter, a few cheeky travel tales, and enough practical advice to make you look like a seasoned pro—even if you’re just here for the first time and can’t pronounce “Pattaya” properly yet.

This week, Aida and Aaron rope in Mark and Fred to give first-timers the survival guide to Pattaya. From figuring out how to even get there without being fleeced by airport taxis, to the correct way to say “Pattaya” without sounding like a total tourist, they’ve got you covered.

Expect recommendations like the mighty Eureka Lodge (yes, it’s a thing), tales from the bar scene (beer bars, beer gardens, go-gos… oh my), and a loving ode to the true culinary hero of Thailand: the 7-Eleven toastie. They’ll also let you in on the best transport hacks, like why Bolt beats haggling in the street any day.

It’s part travel tips, part bar crawl, part comedy roast of anyone who dares order a plain burger in Thailand. If you’re new to Pattaya—or just want to laugh at those who are—this one’s your roadmap.

We’re back, baby!

In this very first episode of the new Pattaya Down Under, we spill the beans on how this madness started, how he who shall not be named ditched us, and how Aaron got roped in.

We swap wild Pattaya stories, laugh about listener meetups gone sideways, and plot “totally professional” future business trips (read: excuses to drink).
