Why do Croats lounge over a cup of coffee for hours? What’s the American equivalent to Čokolino? And what’s the deal with mandatory tipping? In this podcast friends and colleagues Gaj Tomaš, a Croat and Cody McClain Brown, an American but nativized Croatian, explore the charming (and less charming) sides of life in their respective countries. In each episode, they’ll tackle a new topic—whether it’s food, healthcare, or measurement units—and compare how it’s seen and experienced in Croatia and the USA.

Coffee culture

In the first episode, we dive into the sacred ritual that is coffee—Croatian and American style! From the strong, leisurely cups enjoyed at local bars to the mystery of "diner coffee" across the pond, we compare the quirks of caffeine culture in Croatia and the U.S.

Find out why decaf is practically heresy in the Balkans, what happened when Cody had his first cup in Split, and why you won’t find many Starbucks in Croatia. Plus, we unravel the tale of Turkish coffee and the pandemic’s unexpected coffee heroes—Mlinar and gas stations. Ready for a brew-tiful journey?
