Vigil Tonight For Alice Springs Lost Little Girl & Can We Talk Our Way Out Of The Manosphere?

from The Quicky · host Mamamia Podcasts

If you've noticed the men in your life repeating talking points from Andrew Tate or Joe Rogan, you're likely seeing the real-world impact of the ‘manosphere’. Research suggests these digital echo chambers are doing genuine damage to the lives of boys and men, but how do we combat an algorithm? Today, we are joined by Australia’s first-ever Special Envoy for Men’s Health, Dan Repacholi. The Labor MP and five-time Olympian is heading off on a national listening tour to tackle the crisis in men’s mental health, respect, and the rising tide of online misogyny. We investigate what it actually takes for men to stay well and why the solution has to start with men talking to men. 🗞️ HEADLINES A candlelight vigil will be held in Alice Springs tonight to honour Kumanjayi Little Baby CNN founder Ted Turner has died aged 87 Iran says they are close to signing a deal to end the US/Israel war Three more people have been evacuated from the cruise ship amid a hantavirus outbreak Terry Irwin says daughter Bindi didn't attend the Steve Irwin Gala due to her health  📩 GET IN TOUCH Got a story, news tip-off, feedback or dilemma?
