Get Krack!n Season 2 Episodes
Season 2 Episode Guide
8 Episodes 2019 - 2019
Episode 1
Episode #2.1
McCartney and McLennan are on the final stop of Get Krack!n's 'We Bloody Love Australia' tour. It has been a relentless, whistle-stop tour of Australia, courtesy of paid content from a range of regional towns that are looking to stamp themselves as the next foodie, holiday destination. But after 3 months of sharing dank motel rooms and sampling the parochial riches of what this wide, increasingly brown, land has to offer, McCartney and McLennan are well and truly ready to go home. They just need to get through one last broadcast before they can return to their loved ones and the private toilet situation that the Get Krack!n studio provides. And so, The Kates find themselves aboard an historic paddle-steamer on the banks of the Mighty Murray River in the port town of Echuca Moama. It's here, at 7am on the roiling deck of the P.S. Gardnerella, that The Kates are first obligated to taste-test an array of sponsor-supplied river crustaceans, soft cheeses and acrid wines. Then the hosts disembark the boat to partake in a range of fun-filled activities specific to the historic border town, like making wine with their bare feet and mulesing a pen of unsuspecting sheep. But when an unprecedented weather event begins to tear its way across the state, the outside broadcast, and McLennan and McCartney's hopes of making a swift exit, look set to be ruined.

Episode #2.2
Having conquered the cutthroat world of satirical online cooking shows with The Katering Show, the two Kates are ready to take a Sassy Swipe at morning lifestyle television in Get Krack!n. Each morning the Kates will shuffle through a roster of unsafe demonstrations, surly guests, underprepared experts and the over-lit decomposition of the duo's already rocky relationship. McLennan and McCartney will leave no cultural touchstone unturned, even though they are in no capacity qualified to speak on them, or on anything for that matter.

Episode #2.3
It's Get Krack!n's one-day-of-the-year thirty-minute 'International Day of People Living with a Disability' special and The Kates are determined to put disabled people front and centre. They claim to have done everything they possibly could to make their show more accessible; they've covered every square inch of their set in disability symbols to raise awareness about...disability symbols; they've hired an Auslan interpreter and installed a box of easy grip cutlery should anyone have an appetite for a pre-dawn meal. They've also jam-packed the running order with a line-up of wonderful disabled talent. The Kates chat to a wellness krackspert who suffers from a chronic illness; a woman who McLennan and McCartney have never met but nonetheless deign to be a worthy recipient of their inaugural 'Most Inspirink Person Award'; and a wheelchair racing Paralympian who is sure to make for a great interviewee should she be able to access the Get Krack!n set. But when The Kates' make a series of ableist blunders their ally reputation is called into question online. The hosts are therefore left with no choice but to drag McCartney's new P.A., Matthew, onto the set to help reinstate their gold-star able-bodied ally reputation. However, The Kates' misguided attempts at inclusivity are quickly usurped by an announcement out of Parliament, where everyone is presented with news that deeply effects McCartney's P.A., Matthew almost as badly as McLennan is deeply affected by not having her own P.A.

Episode #2.4
In yet another drive to bump up Get Krack!n's audience share, Kontent producer Holly has filled today's episode with easily digestible morning show fodder. And in the process, she is forcing The Kates to share details of their private lives for the viewers' consumption, to make the duo seem more relatable. A reluctant McCartney serves up the bare minimum, but is left hanging when her usually over-sharing co-host refuses to dish up the goods. The Kates' struggle to not engage with Holly's relentless onslaught of manipulative morning show gimmicks continues throughout the episode's guest appearances; the charismatic "homo hack" Krackspert EJ Hayes, Helen Bidou spruiking the latest fitness craze, the Vibrathighz, Beauty Krackspert Penny Kwan chatting face masks with influencer Vina Lim, and a spooky, guest who joins them for a Kouch Khat. But despite The Kates' reluctance to endear themselves to the viewers, Holly is like a snake on a leg - she's not going to let go of her precious running order without a fight.

Episode #2.5
Due to a contractual oversight, The Kates are hosting a Saturday morning clip show called 'Back Krack!n', where they recap the highlights from the week that weres. Unlike the Kates, none of the regular staff are being made to work on their day off so the show is being crewed by McCartney's P.A., Matthew, and his film-school mates who are unashamedly using the opportunity to film footage for showreels. Struggling with their new roles as muse, McLennan and McCartney none-the-less back- krack to the start of their World Wide Environment Week, where they kicked off their hugely impactful Klimate Khangels Kampaign. As evidenced by the high energy recaps, it was a busy week full of kash giveaways, right-wing firebrands debating issues that in no way affect them and interviews with True Blue Battler Heroes about rescuing helpless women on the high seas. In fact, the World Wide Environment Week was so jam-packed, The Kates barely had time to address the environment at all.

Episode #2.8
Miranda Tapsell and Nakkiah Lui return to promote the new season of their network show, The Blynde Spot. But when the Kates suddenly leave mid-interview, their guests are, once again, left to steer the leaky and rudderless boat that is Get Krack!n. Miranda, keen to diversify her skill-set so she stops getting confused for Deborah Mailman, embraces the opportunity to host the show. And eventually, she convinces a reluctant Nakkiah to stay and claim her role as 'Australia's Aboriginal Sonia Kruger'. And so with new outfits, new hair, new makeup and their bodies squeezed into second-hand shapewear, Nakkiah and Miranda present a running order filled with segments on mudrooms, laundry detergents and and an all-white panel discussing whether or not racism is "a thing." The only reprieve comes when they check in with intern Scarlett Nicdao who is reporting live from The Kates' location. There The Kates negotiate both an unfolding situation and the handful of confused guests who were redirected to them. Whilst the Kates keep on pushing through until their series contract allows them to stop, Nakkiah and Miranda valiantly set out to change the face of Australian morning TV, just by being faces on Australian morning TV.
