Tea, Rockets and Yanks

Hold onto your monocles and cowboy boots, because it's time for the eighth episode of "Tea Rocket and Yanks"! Adam Kent, the suave UK businessman, and Tina Furman, Nashville's witty military wife, are back to paint your ears with their uproarious conversations and transatlantic perspectives.
The episode kicks off with Tina's delightful admission: after watching "Peaky Blinders" and laughing her heart out with "Gavin and Stacey," she's ready to hop aboard the UK TV train. Could this be the solution to global harmony? Time will tell.
But fear not, they dive into some serious matters too. From US and UK house prices to the intricate art of real estate sales tactics, our dynamic duo contemplates whether Tina should join her family as a "realtor" – that's real estate agent in Brit-speak.
Immigration chatter takes center stage, with Adam and Tina delving deep into its implications in both countries. Customer service woes post-COVID are also dissected, revealing the true trials and tribulations of the "new normal."
But don't let the weighty matters bring you down! The conversation takes a light-hearted twist as Adam becomes Tina's linguistic knight, translating British phrases into US English for her.
Enter the hornet assassin! A unique, and let's admit it, somewhat dangerous way to deal with these pesky insects becomes the topic du jour. But fret not, they transition smoothly into the UK's drinking culture for young adults and deciphering what the heck "out out" actually means (hint: it's not just a dance move).
Tina tests her Brummie accent, and the pair marvel at the American police's undeniable attraction to doughnuts. But wait, Adam's messaging mishap leads to a guilt trip of epic proportions, giving Tina a laugh as big as the Grand Ole Opry.
Butter your crumpets, folks, as they define the quirky term "nappies" and explore the charming world of the British police. The episode culminates with Tina's heartwarming confession: when she's upset with her family, her refuge lies under the stairs, surrounded by potato chips.
So, pop the kettle on, grab some crisps, and get ready to eavesdrop on a transatlantic tête-à-tête that's as delightful as a cuppa with the King.

And we're back, lads and lasses! Tune in to the wildest cross-Atlantic banter featuring the ever-so-British Adam Kent and the Southern belle with a pinch of firecracker, Tina Furman!
🏰 Disney Dilemmas: Tina’s magical family trip to Disney had Adam green with envy, mostly because of those ridiculously extravagant Disney prices. But wait, why's it cheaper for Brits to pop across the pond? Does Mickey Mouse have a special affinity for tea and crumpets?
🚗 Road Trippin’: A mere 11-hour road trip for Tina equates to a whopping 33 hours in Welsh time, according to Adam. Sheesh, those sheep really slow things down!
🚘 Tesla Tantrums: Adam's less-than-self-driving Tesla has him on edge. If the car's so smart, why can't it listen to reason? Meanwhile, Tina's encounter with Yvonne from Scotland has Adam utterly baffled. How did they even pass U.S. customs?
🎶 Musical Mix-ups: Tina's meeting with a UK Billy Ray Cyrus fan is a head-scratcher. Adam's just as stumped, wondering who in the Queen's name loves country music in the UK?
🌌 Guardians of the... No Way!: Tina's refusal to jump on the Guardians of the Galaxy ride seals her fate in Adam’s eyes: she's a bona fide snowflake. Maybe she should stick to the teacups?
🚜 Tractor Troubles: Adam’s tractor saga paints a vivid image of him on a rogue piece of farm machinery. Repaired at an astronomical cost and still dysfunctional? You can't make this stuff up!
💼 Happy House Helper: Tina's new venture, TheHappyHouseHelper, is buzzing! From potentially being Senator Furman to refusing a cushy Starbucks job - this woman is full of surprises! Speaking of Starbucks, Tina's got beef with them for rejecting her daughter. Maybe a "Senator Furman Special" latte could mend fences?

🦌 Deer Disasters: In a turn of tragic events, Tina recounts her son's collision with a deer, ending in a totalled car and a mix of whiplash and COVID. Maybe that's nature’s way of saying, "stay home and watch Disney+?"
🔥 Fiery Furman: Adam's final proclamation is that Tina must storm the political arena. With the nickname "Fiery Furman", she's sure to set the world ablaze!
Episode 11 is packed with antics, jests, and jests about antics. Whether they're diving into deep waters or merely wading in the kiddie pool of life's complexities, Adam and Tina never fail to entertain. Cheers to yet another rollicking episode of Tea Rocket and Yanks! 🚀🍵🇬🇧🇺🇸

Tea, Rockets, and Yanks - 1 - The Meet
Tea, Rockets and Yanks
07/07/23 • 32 min
Welcome to the inaugural episode of "Tea, Rockets, and Yanks" - a delightful, lively podcast that bridges the gap between the British Isles and the Deep South. Your hosts for this uncharted journey are the astute and globe-trotting British businessman and seasoned politician, Adam Kent, and the hardworking, farm-reared military wife from Nashville, Tennessee, Tina Furman.
Today's episode originates from the epicenter of space exploration - Cape Kennedy, Florida, where Adam and Tina first met at a SpaceX rocket launch. This meeting ignited a shared passion for exploring the uncanny, yet delightful, nuances and dissimilarities between the UK and the US - from roosters to rockets, iguanas to English language idiosyncrasies.
In the first segment, Adam and Tina share their unique experiences from a recent Floridian holiday - a riveting seven-hour drive from the tropical Florida Keys to Cape Kennedy. They ponder the American affinity for lengthy road trips, as they humorously compare it to the relatively smaller UK, where an analogous drive might be considered an epic journey to visit a far-flung relative.
Along the way, we delve into Adam's newfound affection for the Sunshine State and his annual pass for the Kennedy Space Station - a significant contrast to his UK roots. An intriguing conversation on the adoption of a lonely German named Thomas opens up a dialogue on global connections that extend to Dubai, Chile, Brazil, and even touch upon the quirky weather patterns of the respective countries.
We journey deeper into the cultural landscape, uncovering the amusing reality of English language "corruptions" in the US, while diving into genetic similarities, suggesting that all Americans might just be British or part Welsh.
Expect some tantalizing debate over kiwis in salad and the ubiquitous Mercedes Benz, or 'bins', as Australians call it. And hold on to your headphones for the New Zealand vs. Australia rivalry and a dip into hot springs, cricket, baseball, and the intriguing world of trash - or should we say 'rubbish'?
From there, we teleport to the glamour of Hollywood, discussing Cameron Diaz, the appeal of 'Peaky Blinders', and the eternal debate between box sets and series. Expect thoughts on climate change, a unique take on Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, and insights into the transitory nature of Americans.
We'll delve into the musical landscape, from 90s alt and grunge, to country, ABBA and Adele, before pivoting to the political climate - featuring the unexpected George Bush band and a debate on the drinking age in Spain vs the US.
Our hosts will leave no stone unturned, touching upon education, nocturnal children, state flags, Elon Musk's exploits, and even the cryptic three stars on the Tennessee flag. So, buckle up and enjoy the ride. This is 'Tea, Rockets, and Yanks'.

Tea, Rockets and Yanks - Episode 12 - Series Finale - Halloween Horrors
Tea, Rockets and Yanks
10/30/23 • 74 min
Tea Rocket and Yanks: Episode 12 - " Season Finale - Halloween Horrors"
Ladies, gents, and nonchalant teapots, buckle up! For the season finale, Adam Kent and Tina Furman pull out all the stops, juggling a potpourri of peculiar topics from both sides of the Atlantic. Prepare for a roller-coaster episode, loaded with transatlantic titbits, questionable games, and some Martian mysteries.
⏰ British Summer Time & Daylight Saving: It's that time of year again. While Brits reset their Big Ben-inspired wall clocks, Tina in Tennessee is scratching her head. Why does an hour's difference feel like a timezone apart?
🎃 Tina’s Tricky Treats: Tina's Halloween party promised spooky fun but ended up revealing more than anticipated. Thanks to a risky Amazon purchase, she unwittingly introduced her guests to the game "Pick Your Poison". Top tip: when your Aunt Edna is searching “What’s a ball gag?” on Google, you've definitely crossed into unknown territory. And, dear Aunt Edna, maybe clear your browser history, or brace yourself for some very specific ad recommendations.
🌪️ Turbulent Tennessee & Watery Worcestershire: Tornados twirl in Tennessee and Worcestershire wades through water. The duo dives deep into the unpredictable weathers of their homelands, lamenting over lost umbrellas and floaties.
👻 Real Estate Revelations & Ghostly Giggles: If you're selling a home in the US, apparently you must declare if it's haunted (or just had a past death). Adam quips that the UK would be in a bind with such rules, given their ancient, probably ghost-ridden estates. Speaking of phantoms, are they real? Are aliens? Adam seems convinced, especially after overdosing on "Invasion" on Apple TV.
💰 Currency Confusion: Pennies, pounds, dimes, and dollars - the duo delves into the linguistic labyrinth of currency, leaving no coin unturned.
📺 Reginald Perrin's Peculiar Presents: Adam nostalgically nods to the British show "The Fall and Rise of Reginald Perrin", especially its Grot shop. Just in time for Christmas, when you're eyeing that obscure gift for Uncle Bob who already has everything.
🚀 Elon’s Extraterrestrial Escapades & Scottish Shenanigans: No episode is complete without mentioning the man aiming for the stars, Elon Musk. This time, he's not just plotting a journey to Mars but also dabbling in... Scottish politics? Aye, that's one small step for man, one giant leap for Scottish independence?
In this whirlwind of a finale, Tea Rocket and Yanks ensure there's never a dull moment. Whether it's aliens, Elon, or accidentally risqué board games, Adam and Tina tackle it all with their signature humour and unyielding wit. As we bid adieu to this season, rest assured, our dear hosts will be back, armed with more tales, tea, and... well, probably more mentions of Elon Musk. Cheers to a rocket-fueled ending! 🚀🍵🇬🇧🇺🇸

Listeners, fetch your favorite pet and cuddle up for the fifth episode of "Tea Rocket and Yanks," aptly named "Cats or Dogs." In this purr-ticularly delightful installment, UK businessman Adam Kent and US military wife Tina Furman unleash their opinions on everything from furry friends to the state of social media.
Are you a cat person or a dog person? Adam's affinity for felines and Tina's canine devotion spark spirited debates. And what about that story of the rabbit and the cat flap? We're not kitten you; it's a tail you won't want to miss! Ever wondered if a dog could become a rocket scientist? These two have, and they're willing to bark about it.
Tom and Jerry's whereabouts are called into question. Has the classic cartoon been banned for causing offense? Our hosts scratch below the surface to find the answers.
Banking woes arise as Adam and Tina navigate the sticky waters of canceled accounts. When views don't align with the banks, is your money safe? Prepare for a deep dive into this financial furball.
DNA dilemmas lead our hosts to ancestry.com and 23&Me. Is DNA broken? What constitutes heritage? It's a real genetic jigsaw puzzle that they paw through.
Tina charges into a rant about our ever-growing battery addiction. Are Duracell and other battery companies influencing children's toys? Adam, not to be outdone, waxes lyrical about milk floats, the UK's early electric vehicles from 90 years ago. And what's with those milk bottles always getting in the way after a night at the pub?
Social media gets clawed at, with more platforms than ever and a growing reluctance to engage. Tina proudly boasts 29,722 unread emails and defends the time saved by ignoring them. How's that for inbox efficiency?
From photo filters on phones to the pitfalls of thrusting an iPad into a child's hand, the episode delves into modern communication faux paws. And speaking of communication, they dial back the time for a nostalgic chat about old-school telephones and the art of courting.
So grab a leash (or a saucer of milk) and tune in to "Tea Rocket and Yanks: Cats or Dogs." It's a pet lover's paradise filled with laughs, insights, and a few claws-out opinions.

In a turn of events that might be described as "the British Invasion 2.0 - this time with more tea and less rock-n-roll", Adam Kent, a venerable UK businessman and seasoned politician, and Tina Furman, a fiercely pragmatic military wife from Nashville, Tennessee with a robust farming heritage, have announced the second episode of their raucously entertaining podcast "Tea Rocket and Yanks".
Held following a meeting with the scenic backdrop of a SpaceX rocket launch at Cape Kennedy in Florida (don't worry, they had plenty of sunblock), the dynamic duo answer pressing questions that range from "Why on earth would you start a podcast at a rocket launch site?" to "How did Bill Gates and Microsoft inspire your podcast title?"
Surely, you've all heard of water, right? Well, in this episode, Adam and Tina take the humble H2O molecule and turn it into a riveting conversation topic. They delve deep into the contrasting nature of water supplies between the UK and US, discussing matters like purchase methods, quality control, and even the mystifying Berkey Water Filters.
In an unexpected twist, the conversation turns from filtration to relaxation, discussing the peculiar trend of purchasing baths over Facebook Marketplace (we’re not kidding!). Prepare yourself for a bubbly debate about 'tight wads', a term that may bring a chuckle or two.
Ever pondered the term 'Yanks' and wondered how it's perceived across the pond? Our transatlantic hosts spare no time getting into the nitty-gritty, exposing some delightful cultural nuances. Also on the docket is a heartwarming discussion about the Tampa Bay Rays and New York Yankees. How could a conversation about 'Yanks' not include these famous teams?
And speaking of sports, they delve into the world of football, or should we say soccer? With Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney's recent acquisition of the Wrexham club, Adam and Tina unravel the complexities of US game statistics, which might seem like a separate maths degree to many.
For the grand finale, the hosts tackle the amusing topic of 'fake states'. Yes, they do talk about "Pensylvania". A spelling mistake? A phantom state? You’ll have to tune in to find out.
So, grab your tea (or your rocket) and tune in to "Tea Rocket and Yanks" for a wild ride through cultural differences, hearty laughs, and intriguing insights into the water in your glass.

Tea, Rockets and Yanks - Episode 6 - Brady gets the Blues
Tea, Rockets and Yanks
08/07/23 • 66 min
🎉 The World's Most Mind-Blowing Episode Six EVER Has Just Dropped! 🎉
London, UK - Brace yourselves, folks! We promise no jargon, but plenty of Worcestershire... um, Worces... you know what we mean. The powerhouse podcast duo, Adam Kent & Tina Furman, are back with Episode Six of "Tea Rocket and Yanks" and boy, it's an absolute hoot!
💣 BREAKING NEWS: Tom Brady, American Football MVP, invests in Birmingham City Football Club! Not Alabama, folks, the original Brum in the UK. Adam's ecstatic, envisioning every Tom Brady fan donning Birmingham shirts, and possibly learning the Brummie accent. Meanwhile, Tina recounts a hilarious gym rumor of Brady buying a team in Birmingham, Alabama. Whoops! Can we say 'lost in translation'?
🎩 FUN FACT: Brady’s all set to join the podcast for a riveting lesson in everything Birmingham, including how to don a flat cap with swagger à la Peaky Blinders.
Worcestershire Sauce (go on, try saying it) proves to be Tina's verbal Everest, much to Adam's amusement. Speaking of heights, Adam and his buddy Danny aim sky-high with dreams of scaling the real Everest, while Adam has cosmic plans involving Elon Musk and Mars. Tina? She’s keeping it romantic with an Eiffel Tower visit, a train journey, and a gondola ride in Vegas (where what happens there, stays there).
The dynamic duo then deep dives into the quirks of the French language, a potential sponsorship with Elgato, and the art of inconveniently placing e-scooters. For the trivia lovers, did you know Birmingham has more canals than Venice? Neither did Brady!
From rants about Adam’s love for Vegas and Tina’s disdain, to musing over Stonehenge (just a bunch of rocks or an alien landing site?), the chat leaps to the wonders of Buc-ee’s and Bass Pro Shops. Not forgetting the gravity-defying cat that chooses windows over cat flaps.
Relationships? Adam and Tina ponder over the conundrums of AI in family photos. Pro-tip: Always place the temporary significant other at the photo's edge for easy cropping later!
A heated discussion ensues about CrossFit, good days vs. bad days, the epic UK 14-day Disney pass, and the US's perplexing tradition of naming kids after their parents with tags like "Junior" or "Little."
In conclusion, Episode Six of "Tea Rocket and Yanks," aptly titled "Brady gets the Blues," isn't just another episode. It’s an odyssey, a journey, a riotous rollercoaster – essentially, the BEST episode since... well, the last one.
Don't miss out on the laughs, gaffes, and Adam's masterclass on Worcestershire pronunciation. Listen now, and thank us later!

In an all-new, third installment of the eccentric podcast "Tea Rocket and Yanks", UK's indefatigable businessman Adam Kent and the resolute military wife Tina Furman from Nashville, Tennessee, USA are gearing up to entertain listeners with their witty, mind-boggling debates. You thought the last episode was a rollercoaster? Strap in!
On the platter for this episode is the perplexing question, "Why do UK citizens think New York and LA are the only cities in the States?". Adam counters with, "And why do US citizens think London is the only place in the UK?". They even ponder on the grander question of why anyone from the US should be bothered about other countries at all!
Treading into deep cosmic waters, they scrutinize the Moon Landing, or the 'alleged' Moon Landing as some may call it. With Elon Musk's recent exploits in space travel, could SpaceX outdo NASA? Is Musk a brilliant genius, or perhaps a time-traveling savant controlling our minds with Neuralink? Adam's experience with two Teslas and Starlink is shared, and a cheeky request is made for a Musk-sponsored podcast episode. Why not shoot for the moon, right?
Shifting gears to terrestrial matters, Adam and Tina discuss transatlantic travelling nuances and the colourful world of car hire (or rental, depending on your postcode). The pair wade into the peculiar waters of insurance disparities and Tina's astute strategy of only buying white cars.
Ever heard Ford stands for "Found On Road Dead"? Well, thanks to Tina , Adam knows now. They dive into this and more, including a hotly anticipated Kent family showdown at the 2024 London Marathon and Adam's unabashed competitive streak contrasted against Tina's more sanguine approach to competition.
Geography lovers, fear not! There's a delightful dissection of states, counties, districts, towns, and villages – or should we say flats, apartments, cottages? They touch upon the tax wars among states, Californian 'transplants' in Tennessee, and the unique experiences of being interviewed by curious neighbours.
Politics isn't left untouched, as they traverse through topics like pot holes, flooding, party U-turns, Biden's under-the-radar UK visit, term limits for politicians, and news consumption habits. Housing issues in the UK also make an appearance, hinting at an upcoming housing boom.
For all this and more, tune into "Tea Rocket and Yanks". You might end up learning something, or you might just end up laughing your socks off. Either way, it's time well spent.
