In this episode, we unpack why Austria is buzzing about the resurfaced Habsburg jewels and what this says about the country’s ongoing nostalgia for imperial days. We also dive into the surprisingly long list of Austrian sayings involving sausages — because of course there are many. And finally, we talk about the cultural collision that happens when an Australian in Austria affectionately calls his audience “c*nts,” and how wildly differently that word lands here. A bilingual deep dive into history, language, and cultural misunderstandings — the Wurst Guide way.
