Ep 210 - F*ck Off!

Crabb & Sales haven’t been this mutually obsessed since The Americans.  This entire episode is about the final season of Succession and containers epic spoilers up to the end of episode 3 of season 4. There is no content other than Succession-related discussion so if that’s not your thing, in the words of the great Logan Roy, f*ck off!

Ep 209 - Paging Dr Freud To Reception

Sales has developed an obsession with Harry Styles. Also, he is young enough to be her son. All very normal and fine. Crabb has read a novel about sexual obsession, which was suggested to her by Greta, a cool Chatter she met on a plane.

Ep 208 - More Fly Than Sardine

Today's podcast explores the full spectrum of Crabb and Sales' friendship. It begins with the most thoughtful birthday gift ever, given by Sales and gal pals to Crabb on her 50th. It then moves smoothly into an epic betrayal, which Sales cheerfully recounts AS IF IT'S NOTHING. What the hell? Also, Sales finds it diffcult not to mention her recent encounter with Lin-Manuel Miranda. And she's listened to some podcasts. But really, the betrayal is what'll stay with you.

Ep 207 - Here's A Euphonium We Prepared Earlier (BONUS)

Crabb here. Sales lost her voice on Friday when we were supposed to record today's pod. But of course, she had up her sleeve an International Women's Day recording of a conversation she had with four wonderful female classical musicians. So we submit it as a "sorry" gift, with normal service to resume next Monday.

Ep 205 - Below Deck Scrubbers

Sales reveals a slightly shameful new TV habit, while Crabb hurls herself aboard the Cunk bandwagon, in an interaction which is - for the FIRST TIME EVER - filmed for YouTube, just in case any Chatters want to adopt the baffling new trend of watching podcasts, rather than just listening to them.

Ep 204 - Crabb's Birthday Bonus Ep - Helen Garner

For Helen Garner's 80th birthday last year, Melbourne's superb Wheeler Centre arranged an evening of pomp and circumstance to celebrate, as part of its Spring Fling festival. The event was MC'd by Chatter darling Virginia Gay, there was an introduction from Miles Franklin winner Jennifer Down (do NOT miss Bodies Of Light if you haven't read it yet) and concluded with a lengthy on-stage conversation between Garner and Crabb. Recognising that this exchange is grade-A Chatter Catnip, The Wheeler Centre - bless their cotton socks - have allowed us to use the audio for Chat 10 Looks 3. Crabb turns 50 today, and thought this steaming hot plate of vintage Garner might be a nice present for Chatters everywhere. Happy Birthday to all!
