Breaking Waves: Episode 53

Podcast: Breaking Waves

In this week’s instalment of Breaking Waves Shai and Geoff visit the Netherlands for an unguided exploration of all things Dutch, including Shai’s thoroughly multi-culti heritage. Yes, you thought the Dutch were just famous for windmills, tulips, dykes, bicycles, Van Gogh and being tall cheese loving people with a tolerance for freedom of expression. But did you know about the legendary Dutch baseball pitcher Bert Blytleven? Shai does. Did you know the huge history of Dutch sea explorers in relation to Australia? Shai does. Did you know Shai used to call his Mum ‘the Dutch Koala Bear’? Shai knows, and so now will you. All this and more, including clips from the film Goldmember, starring a famous Dutch villain, and, of course, a song in the form of a jolly salty Dutch sea shanty.
