Finding a job in Australia is not going to be an easy task. There are a lot of unforeseen hurdles in the way, some to do with the economics of our time but many to do with the demographics. As per this podcast's habit, we will be exploring those through the personal angle.

 

Thanks for listening in.

Strange Man takes upon himself the task of explaining Australia's health system. It is a good system that, unlike the USA's, will not leave you to die if you do not have the cash; at the same time, it is rather complicated and perverse. And it does seem to aspire for Americanisation way more than it should.

And yes, maybe after listening in you will understand what Australia's private health system is all about.

Whether you're new to Australia or always lived here, you'd need a home. Well, good luck with that, mate, because it's not going to be easy.

In this episode we discuss the process of looking for a place to call home, renting, and if you're one of the lucky few - buying. We also discuss Australia's most favourite boring sports, investment properties.

Hope you have a lot of money in your bank account for this episode!

With the Australian Government recently deciding to go on a nation wide postal survey on gay marriage, it's a good idea to break normal proceedings and run a special episode on the matter of getting married.

In this episode we therefore look at how people get married in Israel, how Australia is better than that, and wonder why Australia can't take that extra step forward.
