Comedy group The Chaser have found a new home for their content, announcing a podcast hosted by Nova Entertainment.

The Chaser Report will be a half-hour topical comedy current affairs show, launching Friday 17 April. The Chaser previously hosted Radio Chaser on Triple M which ceased in December 2019. The group still have a podcast hosted on Southern Cross Austereo’s PodcastOne, but no new content is planned for the future.

The show will be a short, sharp look at the week’s news, showbiz and sport. Each episode will feature advice on how to survive the coronavirus lockdown – particularly through the consumption of alcohol according to The Chaser.

The Chaser’s Charles Firth said: “Demand for reliable, trustworthy information is soaring during the coronavirus pandemic, but we decided to launch The Chaser Report anyway.”
