Short Synopsis
Tony James Slater transports listeners to Australia in this must-listen travel adventure comedy.

Full Synopsis
Tony James Slater knew nothing about Australia.Except for the fact that he’d just arrived there.The stage is set for an outrageous adventure: three people, one van, on an epic, 20,000 mile road trip around Australia.What could possibly go wrong?

Of course, the van—nicknamed "Rusty"—is a crumbling wreck, held together by the world’s most garish paint job.They’re criss-crossing the continent through some of the most inhospitable land on the planet—the infamous Aussie Outback.And isn’t there something about Australian animals being . . . well, you know, kind of dangerous?

Unprepared, under-qualified and hopelessly inept, Tony battles gigantic pumpkins, mechanical mishaps and suicidal kangaroos, armed only with a thong and a sense of humor.His companions struggle to keep him safe whilst climbing in drag, snowboarding off cliffs, and hiking hundreds of miles through the bush.One thing’s for sure; this "adventure of a lifetime"—if they survive it—is something they’re never going to forget.

So, scull those stubbies!Grab your galahs!And put down that platypus. LOOK OUT, AUSTRALIA!There’s an idiot coming . . .

Kamikaze Kangaroos!
