  • Serving “Holidays Of Gratitude”! Special Reissue

    Serving “Holidays Of Gratitude”! Special Reissue
    Nov 27 2025
    Thanksgiving is back in the US, and so are we with a special reissue of our November 2022 episode, "Holidays of gratitude"! (And don't forget: Dean’s newest book, "Business Beyond Borders: Stories, Tales, and Lessons Learned from Working in 100 Cultures Around the World”, IS OUT NOW. Order your copy today!) Happy Thanksgiving to our US American listeners! In this episode, Dean dishes to Tom about both experiencing US American holidays like Thanksgiving while in different countries, as well as immersing himself in different countries’ holidays over the years – from Slovakia to India to China, and many more! Plus, Tom searches for wordplay (but does he find it?) and producer Torin calls out semantic satiation when he hears it (but can he say “satiation”?). Enjoy gobbling up this episode, and thank you for listening! ***Subscribe to Dean’s Substack here to find all of Dean’s “Culture’s Consequences” articles, CultureQuizzes, and much much more!*** Have a cultural question or episode idea?

  • Idiots Still Talking Idioms! Special Reissue

    Idiots Still Talking Idioms! Special Reissue
    Oct 23 2025
    After recently exploring what certain words and phrases say about culture, we thought it time to re-explore what other certain phrases - idioms - say about - yes - culture! With that, enjoy this special reissue of our 47th episode, "Idiots Talking Idioms", from March 2024. (And don't forget: Dean’s newest book, "Business Beyond Borders: Stories, Tales, and Lessons Learned from Working in 100 Cultures Around the World”, will be released Nov. 4th in hardcover and Nov. 6th in Kindle and audiobook. Pre-order it today!) Dean and Tom have truly “fallen down the rabbit hole” in this episode as they explore different idioms across cultures, offering context as well as advice on what to do when faced with unknown idioms on your travels. (A preview: An idiom in another country may feel like it “comes out of left field,” but give yourself some grace - you’re not an ‘idiom idiot’!) We know that you’ll enjoy listening to this idiotic idiomatic episode “as soon as possible” (when is this? that’s up to you!) because you’re all “pieces of bread”, “salt of the earth”, and other figurative fundamental foodstuffs! ***Subscribe to Dean’s Substack here to find all of Dean’s “Culture’s Consequences” articles, CultureQuizzes, and much much more!*** Have a cultural question or episode idea?

  • 60: Dean Wrote A Book! & “Moore” Culture Lit (Part 2 of 2)

    60: Dean Wrote A Book! & “Moore” Culture Lit (Part 2 of 2)
    Sep 25 2025
    We’re back for Part 2 and for our 60TH EPISODE! In this even more culture-lit-laden episode, Dean, Tom, and Torin resume poring over Christopher Moore’s book “The Untranslatables”, about terms representing universal concepts that don’t have a direct translation in U.S. English, like the French term “esprit de l’escalier”, the Mandarin word “guanxi”, and the Bantu word “ubuntu”. Dean’s stories, tales, and lessons learned abound (and astound) as the bibliophilic blokes explore why the terms’ original cultures required, and others did not require, the creation and use of these terms in their respective parts of the globe. We heartily thank you sixty times over for laughing and learning with us over sixty episodes! Speaking of Dean’s stories galore and loving books: We KNOW you’ll love Dean’s newest book, "Business Beyond Borders: Stories, Tales, and Lessons Learned from Working in 100 Cultures Around the World”. It’ll be released Nov. 4th in hardcover and Nov. 6th in Kindle and audiobook - pre-order it today! ***Special thanks to Christopher Moore and “The Untranslatables: The Most Intriguing Words from Around the World”.*** Have a cultural question or episode idea?
