Read MoreEp 249 - Stone Cold Motherless Last
Once again, Sales has belatedly slouched towards something everybody else watched years ago. This time - appropriately enough - it’s Slow Horses. Crabb has been galloping around the MOAD.
Read MoreEp 248 - Aftermath Of A Kiss
Sales and Crabb have both watched "Nobody Wants This" and find they have different interpretations, especially of the series' much-discussed kissing scene. Thank goodness there's basketball and Ezra Klein to restore the peace.
Ep 247 - Wise Gals
Crabb's on a deep dive into the birth of impressionism in Paris with a new book by Pulitzer Prize winner Sebastian Smee, while Sales is once again offering her insights on The Sopranos, which last we checked finished airing 17 years ago.

Read MoreCrabb and Sales hit the road to Perth, and a rare illness-free streak in WA means they're brimming with energy to chat about everything from money laundering to US politics to "I Touch Myself".
Read MoreSales has watched A Man In Full, and wonders why it hasn't been a global hit. Crabb has a theory, which she unspools at length while indulging her weakness for big-screen megaflops. Also discussed: Miranda July's lady-pleaser All Fours, and Jessie Tu's new novel The Honeyeater.
Read MoreIn a welcome break from Ryan Reynolds content, Crabb and Sales have a serious discussion about some confronting revelations surrounding a couple of beloved authors.
Read MoreSales finally drags Crabb to see Deadpool v Wolverine and arrives bearing lamingtons. Crabb attempts to befriend a cinema employee with surprising results.
Read MoreIn the ultimate grift, Crabb and Sales hit London's Royal College Of Music and conjure the High Priestess herself - MARINA HYDE!!!! - in honour of Chat 10 Looks 3's tenth birthday. Ms Hyde, who somehow remains fresh as a daisy after the British election, submits graciously to the birthday pair's fervent genuflection and nervous self-abasement, in particular Leigh Sales' extended soliloquy about moors, and what makes them different from, for instance, heaths. Then she moves on to Jeremy Clarkson. How is this show still alive? Yes, we're all wondering.
Read MoreAnother arts festival, another chance for Sales to go on a crazy solo adventure without asking her friends first if it's a good idea. Crabb meanwhile has been rubbing shoulders with literary god and Chat 10 darling Ann Patchett.
Read MoreMuch talk of musicals this week (Waitress, Dear Evan Hanson, Cats even!), but the headline news is that Crabb has watched a Ryan Reynolds film and this prompts an indecent proposal from Sales.
Read MoreLook, not to be pessimistic, but Sales has some controversial views on Taylor Swift that will probably prove the end of us all. Also mentioned: After The Party, White Fever, Beyonce.... oh never mind. We're doomed anyway.
Read MoreCrabb, fresh from the federal budget, is incredulous that Sales is still going with her Ryan Reynolds binge, albeit via detours into Baby Reindeer, Ripley and Scoop.
Read MoreAfter watching Stutz, Crabb and Sales delve into the world of therapy, with detours along the way via ketchup, ageing and happiness.

Sales is still going through Ryan Reynolds’ back catalogue, but suddenly declares that she “believes” Adam Sandler is a more bankable actor. Crabb accuses her of Fox News-style truthiness and hits the interwebs to uncover the truth, via detours of The Rock, Keanu Reeves and MILF Manor.
Read MoreCrabb shows Sales an extraordinary dance routine by Hollywood A-lister Tom Holland (and later is crushed by her teenage daughter acidly informing her that everyone in the world saw that video seven years ago when it first came out). Who cares, because Leigh Sales is touring with the Australian Chamber Orchestra, and Crabb is interviewing Ann Patchett for the Sydney Writers' Festival, so suck on that, kids.
