Somehow Related is an Australian comedy podcast where Glenn Robbins and Dave O'Neil are given two seemingly unrelated topics and try to work out how they’re connected. Along the way, they spiral through observational comedy, cultural detours, pointless debates taken seriously, and stories drawn from everyday Australian life — occasionally landing on a conclusion, often not. If you enjoy smart, loose conversations about ordinary things, unexpected logic, and the humour hiding in plain sight, this show will somehow make sense. What is the connection between Nazis and Fanta? Napoleon and Kangaroos? JFK and corsets? They are all Somehow Related. Part of the Nearly Media podcast network. www.nearly.com.au

This is my new favourite podcast. As an Aussie living in the USA I’ve really been struggling with the sub-par lollies and chocolates over here. I love hearing Kitty and Dave’s taste tests and discussions on my much loved sweets and treats. Just hearing about Jupiter bars and space food sticks makes me happy. Also hungry, but mostly happy. A little joy for this homesick soul.
