The manosphere became the focus of content creator Flynn Martin’s online presence. He went viral for a video many called offensive and out of touch, triggering a huge backlash.

Flynn now says he was 'radicalised' by figures like Andrew Tate, with the constant stream of content shaping how he saw the world. Now, he warns much of what these influencers promote is misleading and often false.

In this episode of The Briefing, Helen Smith talks to Flynn about how he got pulled into the manosphere, the role his mental health played and the support that helped him find a way out.
