This week to mark the summer holidays I'm replaying a bunch of segments following Scott Morrison's disastrous world trips, including:

• ScoMo meets Trump in Washington (hosted by Mark Humphries from Ep25, Sept 21 2019)
• ScoMo goes to the G7 Cornwall and meets the Queen (Ep 71, June 18 2021)
• ScoMo versus the World at the G20 and COP26 in Glasgow (Ep88, November 5 2021)

Enjoy!

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 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.

This week: In a special unscripted episode, I look at an epic week in New South Wales politics with the resignations of Premier Gladys Berejiklian, Transport Minister Andrew Constance and Deputy Premier John Barilaro, as well as the scandal-ridden rise of our new anti-lockdown Premier Dominic Perrottet, coming to power the week before lockdown ends. God help us.
