Somehow Related with Glenn Robbins and Dave O'Neil

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.

Flushing toilets don't quite get the same treatment. There's not really and ode to the throne. However it is much more of an equaliser than the privilege of directing films for a living.
