Welcome to Seemingly Unrelated!
Ever wonder why we do what we do every day? Seemingly Unrelated researches the overlooked corners of life and uncovers the surprising historical events that reveal how meaningful the mundane truly is.
Join Dr. Andrew Johnstone and his co-host as they dive into the research behind the ordinary, uncovering the critical historical, social, and cultural events that shaped them. Along the way, they keep things lively, exploring the unexpected—and sometimes delightfully silly—connections that prove history isn't just serious business. Together, they tackle the profound implications of these links, asking whether our small actions hold real weight and if we possess the power to steer our collective impact.
Along the way we'll also ask:
How did Sperm Whales help re-elect Margaret Thatcher?
Is the guy who invented CAPTCHA secretly Batman?
Did Hello Kitty save people's lives?
Did the NHS get its start from a whiskey distributor?
These questions and more are answered in Seemingly Unrelated.
