Broadly Relevant

💖 The weeklyish podcast for burnt out girlies & personality hires trying to stay Broadly Relevant, with new episodes every Monday at 6PM (AEDT) We cover the news, broadly. Think pop culture vibe checks, brain-scratching deep dives, and a sufficient amount of shit-talking. Featuring a professional journo and indie theatre-maker, we’re the types to unapologetically use words like zeitgeist and eras interchangeably. Hosted by high school best friends Simran Pasricha and Ryan Hamilton and recorded from our home in Narrm, Australia. Can’t wait to chat soon, cuties 💋

    25: Alligator Boyfriends and Disappearing Boy-bands

    Lana del Rey's dating a crocodile alligator hunter and everyone's favourite Russian spy whale is dead in Norway. Broadly Relevant is back and we're bursting with decorum. On this week's episode we chat about men having no clue how to date properly, Zayn Malik's favourite childhood game, and Sabrina Carpenter's brilliant new album. Plus, we cover the digital-sex-crime epidemic going on in South Korea, Scotland's plans to host the Commonwealth Games in 2026, and the mess that is LGBTQIA+ representation in Australia's census. And to top it all off, we dive deep into where all the bands went. Why don't we have anymore One Direction and Fifth Harmony, and can K-Pop fill the void? 💖 We hope you love Episode 25 of the podcast for burnt out girlies trying to stay Broadly Relevant, hosted by your favourite personality hires, Simran Pasricha & Ryan Hamilton.
