We head down under to listen to Ryan’s favorite Australian indie pop songs. Jenna mixes herself a cocktail called the Australian Virgin (we’re looking at you, 1997 era Ben Lee). Our friend Fran teaches us some Aussie slang as we listen to jangly songs by The Go-Betweens, The Lucksmiths, The Cannanes, The Goon Sax, Dick Diver and Twerps. Not bad for a nation colonized by criminals. Hide your babies!
