<p>You can't trust anyone nowadays. The level of sedition, anti-authority behaviour and advertiser-unfriendly thought-crime has reached record levels -- especially among Australia's "elites". Luckily, The Chaser is here to sort the subversives from the patriots. Each week, The Chaser puts a comedian, writer or politician through the ringer, interrogating them on behalf of the Australian government. The stakes are high. If they fail, The Chaser has been granted the power by Peter Dutton to revoke their citizenship immediately and banish them to Nauru, or worse, New Zealand. Along the way, we hear stories from the lives of the those they're interrogating: from childhood through to the present. No stone is left unturned when you've been vetted by The Chaser.</p>
