This is Carl Barron's performance at the Montreal Comedy Festival in 2006.

Carl's got Australian accent but he's exageratting his accent to make it sound more different and funny.

 

FLIP-FLOPS= Footwear similar to sandals (see picture). In Australia they're called THONGS.

THONG= A kind of minimal pantie worn by some women as underwear or as the bottom part of a bikini.

Half the video is talking about the confusion between his idea of "thongs" (flip-flops) and American's idea of "thong" (women's underwear).
