We also talk about the struggles of having to deal with little kids on a daily basis. Some days are better than others but wow, it's really challenging for both of us.When you see parents in supermarkets with screaming kids, don't judge. Have a heart for them.We also talk about how we've been handling things now. We definitely have adjusted, we've learned to take turns in handling our tiny screamers. And what's even better is that we are now raising not just one, but two bilingual children! We actually have our own language at home now.

PETE SMISSEN | Aussie English, Playing The YouTube Game & Linguistic Fun

In Conversation #52 I had a chat with Pete Smissen. Pete is the host of the Aussie English podcast, a pornstar impersonator, mad scientist, linguist extraordinaire and a YouTube thumbnail model (what can't he do)! We chat about some of the decisions he made while creating Aussie English, why you need to dive into the rabbit hole of the YouTube best practices and some of the learnings he has gained from examining his native language, learning foreign languages and raising bilingual children.

Hope you're having a fantastic day wherever you are in the world, Kyrin out!
