As an Australian who consumes far too much American content in the form of podcasts and emails, let me echo Douglas Adams:

“American audiences do not need to feel disturbed by the notion that places do exist outside the US”

@joshua ha - i think I just found the source of this thought ...

Please don’t let anyone Americanise it!

"So why suddenly ‘Newark’ instead of ‘Rickmansworth’? And ‘Bloomingdales’ instead of ‘Marks & Spencer’? The fact that Rickmansworth is not within the continental United States doesn’t mean that it doesn’t exist!"
