  • 804 days in a Tehran jail

    The 17th hearing of the Disability Royal Commission starts today. This time the focus will be on women and girls with disability, and experiences they’ve had with family, domestic and sexual violence.

    Plus, what would it be like to spend more than two years in an Iranian jail for crimes you didn't commit? We speak to Australian academic Kylie Moore-Gilbert about being jailed in Tehran on bogus espionage charges.

    And we unpack all the drama from the Oscars, including *that* moment between Will Smith and Chris Rock.

    Live guests:

    • Tess Moodie, Women with Disabilities Australia
    • Kylie Moore-Gilbert, academic and author
    • Wenlei Ma, film and TV critic for news.com.au

  • Handing Kakadu back

    Nearly half of Kakadu National Park has been returned to traditional custodians in a historic ceremony.

    The world heritage site has been home to First Nations people for more than 60,000 years. With the other half of the park already handed back, it means they'll have more of a say in how the sacred land is managed.

    Plus, how do you find travel inspo if you're vision impaired, when so many apps and listings rely on visuals? A more accessible, audio travel platform is about to launch.

    We've also got a quick politics crash course, before things get too hectic with the upcoming election.

    And why are people snacking on raw meat?

    Guests

    • Mandy Muir, Murrumburr woman and senior cultural tour guide
    • Dr Ben Gauntlett, Disability Discrimination Commissioner
    • Anna Debenham, dietician
    30 min
  • ‘Distressing’ levels of sexual assault and harassment at uni

    A damning report has painted a harrowing picture of student safety at Australian unis.

    The survey of more than 40,000 students found 1 in 6 had been sexually harassed since starting uni, and 1 in 20 had been sexually assaulted.

    It's also shone a light on how institutions deal with theses issues - and students aren't happy about it.

    Plus, tennis legend and current world number 1 Ash Barty has made a pretty shocking and emotional announcement that's she's retiring from the sport.

    And what's it been like for young Russians who oppose the invasion of Ukraine?

    Guests

    Catriona Jackson, CEO Universities Australia Georgie Beatty, President National Union of Students Dr Leonid Petrov, ANUCatherine Murphy, ABC Sports reporter

  • The battle against HIV stigma

    Australia has come a long way in stopping the transmission of HIV.

    For many young people, taking the preventative drug PrEP is part of everyday life, and treatment breakthroughs mean people who are HIV positive will go on to live long and healthy lives.

    But so much stigma still exists around HIV, and that's often having more impact on people than the virus itself.

    Plus, how do you know if you've got long COVID? Some people are reporting symptoms months after infection, but scientists still don't know much about it.

    And a grim update on the state of environment, as the Great Barrier Reef experiences another coral bleaching event and a heat wave hits the polar regions.

    Guests:

    Professor Sonya Marshall-Gradisnik, Griffith Uni Karl Johnson, ACONProfessor Matthew England, UNSW

  • The maths disability no-one’s heard of

    Have you ever been told you just don't have a head for maths?

    Maybe you still use your fingers to add up or have trouble making sense of a bus timetable? It might actually be a neurological disorder called dyscalculia.

    It's kind of like dyslexia, but with numbers - and it gets nowhere near the same funding support.

    Plus, the votes are in for South Australia's state election and experts are describing it as a "stunning" victory for Labor. So what does that mean for the upcoming federal election?

    Also, it's been almost five years since First Nations leaders called for an Indigenous voice to parliament in the Uluru Statement from the Heart. Young First Nations people are frustrated that since then, nothing's happened.

    And we get an update on what's been happening in Russia-Ukraine war.

    Guests

    Casey Briggs, ABC News reporter Allira Davis, Cobble Cobble woman, Uluru Youth Dialogues Associate Prof. Matthew Sussex, ANU

  • Leaking nude photos

    A leaked nude photo from a MAFS contestant’s Only Fans account has gotten everyone talking about image-based abuse and slut-shaming.

    Was it even legal for the contestants to circulate the photo?

    Plus, memes about depression and anxiety have massive followings on instagram and TikTok - so are they harmless fun, or could they do more harm than good?

    And we look at the rising rates of gonorrhoea.

    Live guests:

    • Lauren French, Karajarri woman and sexologist
    • Associate professor Jo Robinson, head of suicide prevention research at Orygen
    • Dr Michael Mrozinski, GP
    30 min
  • Making daylight savings permanent

    The US Senate has voted to make daylight savings permanent, and that's got a lot of people wondering whether Australia should consider doing the same

    Advocates reckon it's better for our health, safety and efficiency - but not everyone agrees.

    Plus, around 80 per cent of Australians under 30 don't have contents insurance for their belongings. That's put young renters who lost everything in the recent floods in a really difficult position. As climate disasters become more frequent, what can be done to make sure young people aren't left worse off?

    And a government inquiry into online safety has handed down its report - we'll go through the recommendations.

    Guests

    Leo Patterson Ross, CEO, Tenants Union of NSW Claudia Long, Hack's political reporter Dr Jayanta Sarkar, Queensland Uni of Technology Associate Prof. Sean Cain, Monash Uni

  • Ticket refund nightmares

    COVID cancellations of concerts and festivals are (hopefully) behind us, but lots of people are still waiting for ticket refunds from gigs in 2020.

    So, what are your rights when buying a concert ticket during the pandemic?

    Plus, the Environment Minister has won an appeal in the federal court, overturning a decision which said she had a duty of care to protect young people from climate harm.And we look at a trial in Victoria that will give some casual workers paid sick leave.

    Live guests:

    • Ken O’Brien, managing director of The Drop
    • Professor Jacqueline Peel, expert in environmental and climate change law
    • Felicity Sowerbutts, Director, Young Workers Centre
