The inimitable Annabel Crabb joins us for this special spotlight episode where we shine a light on the changing impact of journalism in a shifting media landscape. In a world where truth is increasingly contested, can the fourth estate still be trusted to deliver reliable information which brings us together into some sort of shared reality? Or has our trust in journalism been irrevocably broken by the ‘democratisation' of information - the relentless immediacy of self-selecting delivery platforms - as well as the unabating attacks of all political sides, who too often claim that it's just a front for power or an opinion, or even worse, a home for misinformation. How can we rebuild trust in the news, recognising its limitations while understanding its critical role in a well-functioning society?As to disagree productively, we need a shared reality as our foundation.Annabel CrabbAnnabel Crabb is an Australian political journalist, commentator and television host who is the ABC's chief online political writer.

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. How is this show still alive? Yes, we're all wondering.

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 Crabb in a tough week. Thanks Perth Chatters for being SUCH a kind audience!

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. Local writers Robert Skinner and Walter Marsh feature, as well as Sales' new book which is a CRACKER. So much Chatter love in the room. You people really are the best. (0.34) Wham!

Many guests come to the centre due to domestic and family violence, and it provides a safe haven for decision-making and the opportunity to connect with other agencies. Accommodating pets at the centre is a crucial part of a woman's decision to leave an unsafe home, as often the fear of leaving a pet that could also be in harm's way will prevent them from taking that step. In almost 6 years of operation the Vinnies Women's Crisis Centre has accommodated more than 5,500 women, children and pets. More recently, with the rental crisis and shortage of affordable accommodation, guests are staying much longer as there is simply nowhere else for them to go. As part of Vinnies' work more broadly, they have been working with the sector to advocate for fairer rent laws and greater investment in social and affordable housing. With the funds generously donated by Chatters at the last live event in Adelaide, children staying at the centre have been able to participate in the Ready Steady Go sports program during school holidays. For safety reasons, some children are unable to leave the centre, so the Ready Steady Go activities provide a much-needed release. The Vinnies team is grateful for the support of Chat 10 Looks 3.

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.The episode is rescued by Lizzo and a new podcast that's reducing Crabb to helpless hysterics.

The public broadcaster is embarking on a major digital restructure. As young Australians turn off their TVs and radios, the ABC's audience is rapidly shrinking. Leigh Sales, one of their most high-profile journalists, said ‘it's change or death'. But change comes at a cost, and is often accompanied by job losses and criticism. Gabrielle Jackson talks to Guardian Australia's head of news Mike Ticher and deputy news editor Jo Tovey about whether the ABC can change with the times
