If you haven't heard of Andrew Tate - you may have been living under a rock. The former kickboxer, turned social media sensation has made headlines in the past year for all the wrong reasons. He's become a hero to young men for his misogynistic views and divisive commentary on relationships between men and women. 

A few weeks ago, he was arrested in Romania - a place he openly admitted to moving to from the UK because the rape laws are more lenient. 

With his name being thrust into the spotlight again, it's raised the question...why do young boys and men buy into this rhetoric? 

On this episode of The Quicky, we speak to a high school principal about the damaging effects Tate's hateful comments are causing for our young men. We also speak to Hunter Johnson, CEO of The Man Cave about how we can tackle the hateful, sexist and violent views Tate promotes.
