Dumb, Drunk & Racist

Beer Swilling Bogans (1x5)

Data di messa in onda: Lug 18, 2012

Joe gives the Indians a crash course in what constitutes an average Aussie - are we bushies, bogans or battlers? Why do we celebrate our larrikins but hide our laureates? In episode 5, the crew aims to discover the truth behind these stereotypes. Starting off in the bush, Joe takes the Indians to the Allora Show to experience country life at its best: cakes, pumpkins, dodgem cars and rodeos. Just down the road is Mt Isa, the epitome of a country mining town. The Indians visit a school tuckshop and meet Mt Isa's woman of the year, Theresa Braithwaite. A cancer survivor and serial volunteer, Theresa's story really moves Radhika and Gurmeet. Joe is determined to introduce the Indians to a real-life bogan - and the streets and footy fields of Mt Isa finally bring them face to face with the real deal. Mahima and Amer then meet Dr Brian Schmidt, Australia's latest Nobel Laureate, and by no means dumb. Joe sends Gurmeet and Mahima - both from very traditional Indian families who expect to have arranged marriages - to meet a not-so-average Aussie family: Chloe and Erin are a lesbian couple raising four kids in a suburb of Brisbane. Finally, Gurmeet and Mahima experience a hen's night in Brisbane's Fortitude Valley. Mahima gets into the spirit of the night but Gurmeet is shocked, especially by the strippers.
