Summary
Discover how Aussie slang got its salty start—thanks to the Royal Australian Navy. Professor Roly Sussex, dubbed the Admiral of the English Language, teams up with 612-ABC’s Kelly Higgins-Devine to decode maritime phrases that’ve slipped into everyday Aussie speech. From warships to barbecues, these terms carry centuries of seafaring history—and they’re more common than you think. Next time you hear a nautical phrase, you’ll know it’s not just pirate talk… it’s Aussie heritage. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
