Somehow Related with Dave O'Neil & Glenn Robbins

Somehow Related with Dave O'Neil & Glenn Robbins

Comedians Glenn Robbins and Dave O’Neil are given two seemingly random topics. Together they have to work out how these very different things are SOMEHOW RELATED. What is the connection between Nazis and Fanta? Napoleon and Kangaroos? JFK and corsets? They are all Somehow Related. Produced by Nearly Media. www.nearly.com.au
