  • Why You So Liddat #10 - Road Rage

    Why You So Liddat is a show that explores the mind, our behaviour, and why we are the way we are. We've all felt it before...that rush of anger when we drive when someone cuts into our lane unexpectedly or when the other driver is going way too slow. Why does road rage happen, even to people who are normally very mild mannered? Mark Sullman tells us more.

  • The Difference Between Sex Ed and Porn

    There was an article in the BBC last year about how children are turning to porn to learn about sex. And that's hardly surprising when you think about it because it's more accessible than talking to an adult. What we should be concerned about however, is what the kids takeaway with them, especially the girls. They think it's ok to be objectified and to be treated like a doormat to get a boy to like them. Are we seeing similar issues here but choose not to talk about it? We find out with sex educator, June Low.

  • Can Parenting Be Taught?

    We hear a lot of stories about how kids these days grow up to be individuals who are lacking self-confidence, are stressed, and anxious. And the cause of these struggles partly boils down to parents. Many parents are afraid of failing their children, and it is that fear that trickles down to their offspring without them being aware. So, could parenting classes help allay that fear in parents? Is that the answer to raising happy, well-rounded children of the future?

  • Problems with Germany's Anti-Hate Speech Law

    In an effort to fight hate speech and fake news, Germany has begun enforcing a tough new social media law. The law compels social media networks and internet platforms to remove hate speech and fake news posts quickly. Should they fail, these companies could face fines up to as much as 50 million euros. Some welcome the move but critics fear this new law could stifle free speech and give social media companies too much editorial control. Daniel Mossbrucker, Internet Freedom Desk Officer with Reporters Without Borders, gives us an in-depth look at this law and highlights some of its weaknesses.
