Punjaub, Jerusalem and Kentucky: Why are Australian Towns Named That?

Morning folks! We've got a fun one this week, or at least one that's not about the worst of Australian society and war crimes. In Australia, we have plenty of towns named after places in the British Isles, or at least after some Englishman or another. But have you heard of Surat, Queensland or Bagdad, Tasmania? Yes, we also have some places named after other parts of the world, and today we go on a quest to discover what place is named after somewhere the furthest away from it. We have a surprising result, which you'll have to wait until the end to hear! If you like what you hear and would like to support us monetarily, we would love to have you over on our Patreon, at Patreon.com/shouldntacome.If you have any questions about sourcing and such for this episode, you can reach us at shouldntacome@gmail.com.We are on YouTube, where you can see the slides and images we refer to! www.youtube.com/@shouldntacome.Ben Roberts Smith is somehow even worse than I thought
