  • Why have young people been rioting in France?

    Thousands of people — many of them teenagers and young people — have been protesting police violence in France. The riots come after a 17-year old was shot dead during a traffic stop.

    Also, finding your people as a member of the LGBTQIA+ community can be daunting, especially when you're in a small town. Safe spaces can make a huge difference.

    Plus, what happens in Darwin on the one night Territorians are allowed to use fireworks? The results can be crackers.

    And, meet Gunaikurnai woman Courtney Burns, who has just been named NAIDOC Youth of the Year.

    Guests:

    • Matthew Dalton, Paris Correspondent for the Wall Street Journal
    • Courtney Burns, NAIDOC Youth of the Year

  • The Shakeup: Taking one for the team, Swift chaos and South Koreans are getting younger

    It's the Shakeup and we're breaking down the stress, excitement and chaos that filled Swifties' hearts this week.

    Also, South Korea is changing the way it counts its citizens' age, meaning everyone will get a year or two younger.

    And we're asking about times you've 'taken one for the team' after a Belgian shot put thrower agreed to compete in the hurdles.

    Dave Marchese is joined by departing triple j journalist Ange McCormack and comedian Anthony Locascio.

  • 'Serious corrupt conduct'

    The corruption watchdog in New South Wales has found former premier Gladys Berejiklian and ex-Liberal MP Daryl Maguire engaged in serious corrupt conduct when they were a couple. 

    Also, could opioids be doing more harm than good when it comes to relieving back pain? Some new research is casting doubt on whether this super strong med is that effective. 

    And, we speak to the Aussie firefighters who've been helping Canada through its worst wildfire season in modern history. 

    Guests:

    • Paul Farrell, ABC investigative journalist
    • Dr Caitlin Jones, University of Sydney
    30 min
  • Seeing Red over the Swift tix experience?

    The nation's Swifties (four million apparently) dropped everything today hoping to score pre-sale tickets to the Eras Tour. What does this record demand mean for the ticket game and scalping laws in the future? 

    Also, should gambling advertising during sporting events be scrapped? Here's why it's something the government will have to consider.

    Guests:

    • Jarni Blakkarly, Choice investigative journalist
    • Associate Professor Alex Russell, Central Queensland University
    30 min
  • Why female surfers hijacked a mixed comp

    Female surfers have flooded a mixed competition on the Gold Coast, snapping up most of the spots over frustrations about pay equality in the sport. 

    Also, there's growing pressure to change the law surrounding the use of spit hoods - masks designed to prevent spitting and biting - on children in police custody.

    Guests:

    • Lucy Small, professional surfer
    • Sean McKeown, Kirra Longboard Klassic director
    • Latoya Rule, National Ban Spit Hoods Coalition coordinator
    30 min
  • The Shakeup: Titanic sub disaster, the 'no wash' movement and stop throwing stuff onstage

    It's The Shakeup and we're breaking down the hectic twists and turns that gripped the world's attention after a tourism submersible visiting the Titanic wreck disappeared.  

    Also, how often should you wash your clothes? And why do concert-goers insist on throwing stuff at celebrities?

    Dave Marchese is joined by actor Jessica Marchi and political reporter at the Sydney Morning Herald, Michael McGowan.

  • Standing up to Elon Musk

    Australia's very own eSafety Commissioner is demanding Elon Musk explain a surge in online hate being reported on the platform. Can Australia force one of the richest and most influential people in the world to do anything?

    Also, What Were You Wearing? is a not-for-profit group fighting to end sexual violence and drink spiking in Australia. They've lodged a petition with thousands of signatures in NSW Parliament to try and get hospitality staff better equipped to deal with spiking in venues.

    And how much does what we do after work impact our mood and our sleep? A lot. We find out how to use your before-bed time for a "mastery experience" like knitting, puzzles, crosswords.

    Guests:

    • Julie Inman Grant, e-Safety Commissioner
    • Dr Amantha Imber, organisational psychologist and TimeWise author
    30 min
  • Search for the missing Titanic submarine

    It's the stuff of nightmares… a tourism submarine visiting the Titanic wreck has gone missing, with only 96 hours of oxygen supply for the passengers. 

    The Greens have teamed up with the Coalition to block a $10 billion housing fund and defer it until October. So, why did these unlikely bedfellows stop the vote, when so many Australians are facing a housing crisis? 

    And it feels like there's a lot of judgement about under-25s that have kids, but these young mums in regional Victoria are loving it. 

    Guests: 

    • Max Chandler-Mather, Greens MP
    • Eric Fusil, University of Adelaide Shipbuilding Hub
