Why is your money so colourful? And why is it made out of plastic?


Jemima: Why is your money all green? It makes no sense.


Brad: Our money is colourful because, well, why not? It’s easy to tell apart. It’s also different sizes, which helps when you’re 12 feet deep in a puddle of gin & tonic and trying to decipher what you owe the bar. They’re plastic (obviously) because they are then waterproof. And alcohol proof.

Brad: Yes. Don’t act like you wouldn’t. You have the goddamn eagle on your passport.


Jenna: Not just kangaroos. Also emus, echidnas, lyrebirds and platypuses.
