FUNNY BUSINESS PEAK AT #7 ON AUSTRALIAN BUSINESS PODCAST CHARTS, ENTER APPLE “NEW & NOTEWORTHY” LIST

Fresh from announcing their management partnership with UNIFIED, Funny Business, one of the country’s fastest rising podcasts, has landed at #7 on Australia’s Business Podcast Charts, and entered Apple’s esteemed ‘New & Noteworthy’ section for the first time.

Formed by Torquay-based best mates Rob Hicks & Lachlan Bradford as a lockdown project in April 2020, Funny Business has climbed to 100+ full episodes and over 70,000 lifetime downloads in its debut year. Known for its relatability, humour and diverse range of in-depth topics, Funny Business has been featured via the likes of Urban List, Forte Magazine, The Geelong Advertiser and Today, meanwhile its bursting success found hosts Rob & Lach quitting their day jobs and launch the Funny Business umbrella company, Wellbeings Group.

Ones to constantly push the boundaries of what is to be expected from a podcast, team Funny Business have taken to a range of extra curricular activities of late including speaking engagements (such as hosting last week’s Main Stage virtual forum), and debuting on the live stage with their event next Saturday May 15 (more details below).
