Michael Flanders - Invidious

Michael Flanders

I’m Michael, an American discovering the world through its sports, cultures, and different perspectives.

What started with cricket, rugby, Aussie Rules and other sports has grown into something bigger — exploring the customs, opinions, traditions and everyday differences that make each country unique.

Sometimes that means discovering why cricket inspires millions, hearing what Australians or Brits think about America, or learning that something I’ve always considered normal is apparently very American.

I bring genuine curiosity, thoughtful reactions, humor, and respect for the people and cultures I’m learning about. No fake outrage or manufactured hype — just an American seeing familiar and unfamiliar things from a different perspective.

Sports. Culture. Different perspectives. One very big world.
