We're seeing it on our tv screens at home, when scrolling online and in school yard conversation... the 'manosphere' conversation has reached critical mass.

As new research shows a third of gen z boys want 'obedient wives' and Louis Theroux sets off on a new documentary adventure to explain the concept to the masses, we're left wondering... what the heck are we gonna do about this rising trend of misogynistic, 'old school' behaviour?

And in headlines today, Radio host Kyle Sandilands issues first public statement since being suspended due to an on-air relationship breakdown with co-host Jackie O; The Nationals will hold a leadership ballot following yesterday's snap resignation of David Littleproud; Residents in Bundaberg, QLD have been told to leave immediately as they brace for major flooding; Reports two more members of the Iranian women's football team did not board the airplane from the Gold Coast to Sydney yesterday as they prepare to return home; Meanwhile in Iran, the U.S. has promised that it will be the most intense day of strikes as the country's Revolutionary Guard threatens to block all oil shipments from the Gulf.
