Americans when they try australian coffee #aus #usa #nfl #melbourne
Buck Pendersen orders a "venti jumbo latte" with extra creamer, offers a tip and discovers that his Australian barista speaks what he calls "American." He hasn't even tasted the coffee yet.
Kick it Forward's staged sketch about American tourists encountering Australian café culture has picked up about 37,000 views in a day, nearly eight times its usual daily pace. Posted in September, it is getting this fresh burst of attention more than a month after release.
The tourists arrive with impressively low expectations: actual houses surprise them, and an English-speaking barista seems extraordinary. Then comes the tipping exchange. The barista explains that he receives a living wage, while Buck's companion waits nearby in an Eagles jersey.
The sip changes the sketch's rhythm. Buck staggers backward into the street, and a simple coffee order gives way to a dramatic montage of existential bewilderment across Australian city locations.
Viewers are finding plenty to discuss before that turn. One asks whether the exaggerated voices are how British and Australian listeners hear Americans attempting their accents. Others single out the tourists' full-name introductions, the pronunciation of Melbourne and the request for non-dairy creamer. For a channel whose About page promises "sketches and sport," this one puts the football jersey on café duty.
