The Chaser Report

The Chaser Report

Are you sick of news you can trust? For over 200 years, The Chaser has been the world's leading source of news you can't trust. The Chaser Report offers a satirical look at Australian and world news and culture, along with occasional confessions of parenting and business failures, the latter often involving an amusingly large number of unsold avocado pool toys. The show is hosted each day by two of the satirical comedy group’s co-founders, Charles Firth and Dom Knight, along with occasional cameos from more talented, less available Chaser colleagues. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Finally! The very slow to arrive very fast train has been re-re-re-re-reannounced and it’s not going anywhere you want to go. Does that mean an election is imminent? Or is it just Newcastle trying to get some attention? Charles and Dom explore the never-dying transport announcement that won’t arrive until they’re dead themselves.

Elon Musk has launched Grokipedia: an AI-generated online encyclopedia the billionaire hopes will challenge Wikipedia, which he says is more like ‘Wokepedia’ and full of propaganda. Charles and Dom investigate Grokipedia by of course first looking up themselves and how it treats The Chaser organisation (and Nazism).

Ahhh, the Great Barrier Reef. It's one of Australia's most beloved landmarks, cherished worldwide, and invaluable to our nation's identity. So how much does the piece of shit cost? Thankfully, that question has been answered by the good people at Deloitte.

Charles and Dom are back in the same room, but unfortunately, said room is not a ballroom, and therefore is completely uninteresting to Trump. Together they discuss the White House renovations, and how what Australia really needs is a Mar-A-Largo Down Under.

In this topical episode, Charles lays into someone that the rest of the Australian media has left untouched for too long. Samuel P. Huntington better watch out, because there's no way his theory on the clash of civilisations stands a chance against the intellectual might of Firth. NO ONE IS SAFE.

Dom drops into the feed with a quick update about where we are (taking school holidays off, as is our practice now), and gets very distracted by all the new Wankernomics gigs that Charles is selling out across the UK, Ireland and NZ, as well as the new shows they're doing in MELBOURNE and SYDNEY this December.
