    Scotty & Ruttsy return from a break with Crazy World Leaders & Political Parties in mind. Think Turkmenbashi, the deceased ruler of Turkmenistan who banned ballet, circuses, beards & gold fillings in teeth and made a national day for horses & melons. He and many other loonies get a run. Also getting a run are some political parties around the world such as The Official Monster Raving Loony Party, The Rhinoceros Party, The Church of the Militant Elvis Party & The Hungarian Two-Tailed Dog Party to mention just a few. Throw in some chicken facts and some text abbreviations and you have a typical Two Smokin' Guns podcast. Songs to finish the theme were God Save the Queen (Sex Pistols), World Leader Pretend & Exhuming McCarthy (REM), Nelson Mandela (The Specials), I'm Henry the 8th I Am (Herman's Hermits), There's No One As Irish as Barack Obama (Corrigan Brothers) & Dear Mr. President (Pink).

    A special edition of the show focussed on supporting headspace & youth mental health. The Ministry of Art gallery is sponsoring a Charity Art show on Thursday 21st July 2020. Artists are invited to enter. Entry is free. First prize for the best artwork is $2,000 and prizes will be awarded to the top 5 artworks. All artworks will be auctioned on the night with all proceeds going to headspace. The last two years of COVID restrictions have hampered art galleries from opening and therefore artists from being able to promote and sell their artworks. This has obviously caused financial and mental health consequences. This Charity show is about supporting an organisation that does great work in this space. We spoke to youth volunteers Brad, Ally & Larissa about who headspace are and what they do, their services including early psychosis, their roles, why they volunteer and what they personally gain from their volunteering efforts.
