Atlantic Exchange

Tipping

Matt Season 1 Episode 1

What happens when two friends—one stuck in the land of diners, jughandles, and endless tipping culture (New Jersey), and the other sipping tea across the pond in London—get together to compare notes on life? Chaos, laughter, and way too many debates about gratuity.

In this comedy podcast, these two transatlantic troublemakers hilariously dissect the quirks of tipping in their respective countries. From American servers who treat 20% like a birthright to Brits who politely slide coins across the table as if they’re smuggling contraband, no custom is safe from their banter.

Expect rants, riffs, and ridiculous tangents as they explore how a simple bill at a restaurant can reveal so much about culture, class, and comedy. Whether you’re an over-tipper, an under-tipper, or a “does this count as tipping?” kind of person, you’ll find yourself laughing—and maybe even rethinking how you pay the check.
