In summing up 2021 we decided to look back on the cavalcade of disasters inflicted upon Australia this past year. From floods and an earthquake to the Delta outbreak, the subsequent lockdown, botched vaccine rollout and the return of Barnaby Joyce; this whole year has felt like an endless bad disaster movie. So we look back and laugh (mostly) and look ahead to what Australia’s hot Omicron summer might look like.

Also our showbiz and sports correspondent Stefan Pazur stops by to sum up 2021 in movies, music, tv, podcasts and sport.

This week we look at the early phony pre-election campaign which has seen Scott Morrison embrace anti-vaxxers, robots, coal and a carbon tax by another name. Meanwhile Anthony Albanese accuses Morrison of lying which he denies believing.

Zammit from Sanspants Radio, the hosts and brains behind such huge pop culture podcasts as Plumbing The Death Star, Shut Up A Second and Baseless Speculation. They’re here to talk about what pop culture got them through 2021 and what they’re looking forward to in 2022!

This week we do a deep dive into Scott Morrison’s disastrous latest world trip to the G20 and COP26 UN climate conference where he:

• disappointed the entire world with Australia’s backwards climate policies
• lost the trust of one of our most longstanding allies France
• was thrown under the bus by Joe Biden
• unnecessarily irritated our biggest trading partner China
• And annoyed our future head of state, Prince Charles.

Our interview guest is well dressed Melbourne comedian Sami Shah host of the podcasts News Weakly and Murdocracy.
