Crabb's faulty oven catches fire at an inconvenient time and such is her incandescent rage that she goes on a social media rant at the manufacturer. Sales, seeing an opportunity to soothe her friend, turns to the piano and writes a new and more appropriate jingle for the oven company.

Sales insists on showing Crabb visual jokes about music notes while cry-laughing. Yes, it's one of those episodes. Crabb gets her own back by eating a box of delicious treats dropped off by a listener - and we have the recipe! There's a row over who's hogging the chat but there's only one loser - tuba players.

Spoiler alert! Crabb and Sales watch the first episode of the new season of The Americans and tell you all about it. The conclusion: "it has to end in catastrophic doom!!" The chat then turns into a Richard-Fidler-love-fest. Sales reveals that a few years ago she was lucky enough to conduct a rare interview with him about his life.

Deux, derr, DUH! (Crabb and Sales go all out with their French pronunciation skills). A diverse range of topics are whized through: the Dixie Chicks concert, John Howard as Mark Colvin, books on political intrigue, the S-Town podcast from Alabama plus the art of writing a weekly column.
