Nathan Murphy quit footy to save his life

Thursday, April 18, 2024 • Duration 29:52

Last year, Nathan Murphy won an AFL premiership with Collingwood. This year, he's medically retiring at only 24 years old. He's suffered 10 head knocks over his career and is stepping back on the advice of doctors due to ongoing concussion issues.

And non-binary trainee doctors are experiencing harassment twice as much as their male and female colleagues. Could this lead to worse outcomes for both doctors and patients?

Are Zyns the new vapes?

Wednesday, April 17, 2024 • Duration 30:17

Zyn is the brand name for a synthetic nicotine pouch that goes under your lip. "Zynfluencers" are pushing them online claiming they'll give you more energy and better focus, but is this just another push from big tobacco?

And a lot of young people rely on community legal centres to help them when they get arrested, but those centres are at breaking point, and experts say it’s keeping young people behind bars.

Plus, homeless uni students in Tasmania are sleeping in their cars because there just isn't enough affordable housing for them.

Becky Freeman, associate professor of public health, University of Sydney

Bruce Lehrmann's defamation case is now over, with a judge on the Federal Court finding that, on the balance of probabilities, Lehrmann did rape Brittany Higgins at Parliament House in 2019. It means Lehrmann has failed against Network Ten and Lisa Wilkinson, after a trial that dragged on for months.

And over the weekend, Iran launched hundreds of drones and missiles at Israel, with the strikes marking the first time Iran has targeted Israel directly from its own soil. So what does this mean for conflict in the Middle East?

Guests:

Jamie McKinnell, court reporter, ABC

A new approach to preventing UTIs is showing promising results. For chronic suffers, this oral spray could be the alternative to antibiotic over-prescription.

And Cleveland Dodd was 16 years old when he was found unresponsive in his cell in Perth’s Casuarina Prison. This week, an inquest into his death has detailed the bleak conditions faced by teens like Cleveland inside the maximum-security youth unit. We unpack the revelations so far.

Plus, the Vatican has released a 20-page document all about human dignity but it’s the comments that call gender fluidity an “affront to human dignity” that have some people pretty angry. So where does this leave LGBTQIA+ Catholics?

Guests:

Cason Ho, reporter, ABC
Matthew Boon Meng Ng, member, Acceptance
Dr Malcolm Starkey, immunologist, Monash University
