Summer viewing and reading has thrown up all sorts of questions for Crabb and Sales: Why are they more attached to Prince Phillip than they ever thought they would be? How can you turn shitty audio quality into a useful art form? Will they ever be able to go for a whole episode without mentioning Helen Garner?
