The Quicky

King Charles and Queen Camilla may be wrapping up their tour down under, but it's not been without controversy.

Beyond the usual protests, the Royals have been met with outbursts from an elected offical but not many others...

Does this latest whip around the country signal a fading of monarch relevancy?

In the age of AI nothing seems to be out of the realm of possibility.

From animating static images to simplifying our workflows it all seems relatively harmless. But what about the dark underbelly of AI? What about... deepfake porn?

After Hannah Grundy shared what happened to her on Australian Story we've been wondering what you can do if you too fall victim to being the victim of an online crime like this. 

Today, we find out.

Listen to part two of Mia and Sharon's conversation here.

Samantha Azzopardi spent 10 years receiving care as a troubled teen. It would be years before the truth came out that she was actually an adult woman. 

Her scams stretched decades and impacted families, friends and even children, in Australia and abroad. But it wasn’t money that she wanted…   

In this conversation, Mia speaks with investigative journalist Sharon Davis, who has spent the past few years working on the successful podcast Finding Samantha. Sharon worked with colleagues Tim Desmond, Nicoline Greer and Liam O'Brien from RTE in Ireland, tracking Samantha's crimes. What she didn’t expect was the way her own life would become entangled in this story.

So apparently smoking is... cool, again?

New data shows Gen Z are smoking more than any other generation in Australia, despite growing up in the time of heavy anti-smoking campaigning. 

But why are so many young people drawn to lighting up? Could it have something to do with the rise of 'cigfluencers'?
