Shows Blog: Country Fried Planet

Brett McVicker is a writer for Country Fried Home Videos and Country Fried Planet.

Since we started our new show, Country Fried Planet, I've had to do plenty of studying. We pride ourselves in getting the facts right, so we painstakingly check every single piece of information about other countries before we put it on the air. Here are just a few of the things I've picked up:

• The Czech Republic has a class division - those who grow corn and those who grow wheat. They're called Wheat Czechs and Corn Czechs.
• The richest man in Brazil is a Brazillionaire.
• They don't have gravity in Australia. That's why Australians can live upside down.
• Surprisingly, they rarely drive four door cars in Sudan.
• Scotch tapes aren't any stickier than the videos we get from other countries.
• Uruguay is not just an insult.
• Taiwan and Thailand are two different names for the same island nation. The people there are called Cambodians.
• Bora Bora is actually quite exciting.
• In Saudi Arabia, they have mandatory public service. It's called Saudi-Duty Time.
• When in Rome, you should always do as the Romanians do.
