Mira:
Hello, listeners. Today we're comparing Australia and China, two fascinating countries.
Leo:
Hello everyone. Prepare for a cultural comparison!
Mira:
I recently attempted to make Vegemite toast in Australia. It was...an experience.
Leo:
Vegemite is an acquired taste, to say the least. Even my dog rejected it.
Mira:
It was truly awful! What about you, Leo? Any culinary mishaps?
Leo:
I tried ordering dumplings in Mandarin. I intended to order two, but instead requested "a herd of ducks."
Mira:
A herd of ducks? That's hilarious!
Leo:
The waiter was very confused, but I ended up with enough dumplings for an army.
Mira:
Lesson learned: Vegemite is best avoided, and Mandarin is challenging. Let's discuss Australia and China.
Leo:
Two very different, yet equally significant, global players.
