Tis The Season
READ FULL SHOWNOTES ON Chat10Looks3.com Once again, by accident this poorly-coordinated pair has stumbled into a theme. Women telling powerful and wide-ranging stories, including the counter-cultural paean to young men that is Helen Garner's latest. Starting a story and not knowing how it's going to end?

Ep 240 - But Wait! There's Moor!
In 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.
Ep 239 - A Thousand Ways
Another arts festival, another chance for Sales to go on a crazy solo adventure without asking her friends first if it's a good idea.

Ep 227 - Farewell To A Totally Schmidt Year
Crabb and Sales bowl up to the Llewellyn Hall in preposterous garb to farewell outgoing ANU vice chancellor Brian Schmidt, surely the most tolerant Nobel laureate in the history of human achievement. Fortunately this gives Crabb (working with her last remaining shred of vocal cord) an excuse to write the Twelve Days Of Schmidtmas instead of trying to make 2023 funny, a task the prospect of which made her want to lie down in a dark room for some time. Sales is rapt because Kate from Alone shows u

Ep 221 - The Most Ridiculous Live Show EVER
It's the Perth live show, so OF COURSE there's a disaster. Crabb has totally lost her voice. Sales suggests that she can do a TED talk style 90-min solo address instead, the threat of which is enough to galvanise Crabb to race to Perth to protect local Chatters from this horrific fate. The pair use various workarounds to somehow achieve a chat show between two people, one of whom is mute. They discuss Morning Wars, Shayda, and Crabb manages to destroy Sales' favourite movie, which was nice for C

This 80's band never toured to Adelaide. But Sales has compensated by talking about not one, not two, but THREE Wham! shows. As Crabb lapses in and out of consciousness, she manages to reminisce about Sinead O'Connor, and farewell her beautiful sister in law Anisa, friend of the show, who benefited in her last days from the palliative care team who are the joint charity partners of this live event.

Ep 217 - STOP FIGHTING ON TRAINS WE KNOW WHAT HAPPENS!
Somehow, Sales and Crabb have BOTH seen the new Indiana Jones movie. They have thoughts. And those thoughts start out well (with Phoebe Waller-Bridge) but end up in an ageing male action hero morass featuring Tom Cruise, James Bond and the whole shitshow.

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?
