Sooshi Mango Podcast

It's the 2nd time on the podcast for Teddy (@tedsthetics) and 3rd time for Ibby Akbar (@ibby_a), and there's a reason we keep getting them in - they're our good mates and bloody hilarious! Both fresh off their tours, we chat about which parts of Australia they like the most (of course a Sydney vs Melbourne debate arises), compare cuisines and even get them to perform their online personas live in the studio.

Remember dinner dances? Remember going to Sunday visits at an extended relative's house where you weren't allowed to touch the biscuits on the table? Remember getting smacked by your ethnic parents for things that weren't even your fault? We do.

One of the greats and fellow ethnic Mark Philippoussis joins us to chat all things tennis - from what it was like back in the day compared to now, to why AO winner Jannik Sinner has a champion's mentality. We also throw back to the time Mark was the bachelor on a show called Age of Love, and we find out that's he's actually half Greek and half Italian (and when you hear the reason why his mum learnt Greek it's sure to make you laugh)!

Our ethnic dads Johnny, Vince and Sam have taken over some of our podcast today, and every time they come in they cause an absolute ruckus! Not only do they react in shock to our Australian colleagues mispronouncing some Italian and Greek words, but they also make one of the most suspicious phone calls we've ever witnessed! The worst part? We think we're actually turning into our dads with some of the things we are doing. Also in today's ep, we reveal our new podcast tagline!

If you're not familiar with the 'Growing Up Italian' podcast, we're sure you can work out what it's all about from the title! On our recent trip to New York, we sat down with 2 of the hosts Rocco & Sabino to talk about what it's like growing up Italian in America, what they think Italian Australians are like, and of course made them do their best Aussie accent.

We know a proper Italian pizza trumps all, but after a recent trip to New York, we had to have the debate of whether a New York slice beats an Aussie capricciosa. We also give it our best crack at doing the New York accent, and share some stories about the 893434995 places we ate at while we were there for 1 week.

If you've grown up with parents where English was their second language, it's likely they mispronounce plenty of words. We have a fair few examples and hear some hilarious ones from you guys too, plus we go through some of our parents' ridiculous encounters with technology and social media. Wait til you hear what Carlo & Joe's dad accidentally posted to 'da Face-abook'!

We hate to sound old but back in our day it was a simpler time! In today's episode we laugh about some of the games we used to play when we were kids, seeing as we didn't have iPads, and also the cheap things our parents used to buy us and try to convince us that they were just like the expensive brand. Also, Andrew's wallet is the size of Mt Everest so it's time we get rid of some of the junk inside,
