Dr Edith Hill joins us for a heartwarming scroll through social media, spotlighting two creators who are quietly making a big difference. We meet Bea, a cleaner who uses her YouTube success to support people in crisis, and Uncle Jhonn, a retiree who brings neighbours together with simple acts of kindness. In a chaotic online world, these creators remind us of the power of compassion and why it matters now more than ever.

Snapchat, Life360, Find My… are apps many young Australians use daily to check in on their mates, organise hangouts or keep tabs on family. But what happens when that “checking in” crosses a line?

A wedding meant church, flowers, a nice lunch, and maybe a few speeches. But today? There are drones, content creators, and sometimes two dresses.

Social media lit up when a podcast clip claimed the average Australian wedding costs $36,000. Some said, “That’s way too low!” Others laughed and said, “That’s just the bridal shower!”

So what is the real story? And how have weddings changed in the age of cost-of-living pressure, TikTok trends, and shrinking guest lists?

Kim Kardashian made headlines when she raved about a full-body MRI scan, calling it “life-saving.” But she did not mention that for healthy people, there is no evidence these expensive scans help — and that they can even cause harm.

New research has examined nearly 1,000 Instagram and TikTok posts about five popular medical tests, revealing that most of them were misleading.

So, what are these tests, why are they so controversial, and what should we be wary of when we see health claims online?

In today’s digital age, social media platforms have become a primary source of news for millions around the world. But what happens when these platforms start restricting access to quality journalism?

Recently, X—formerly Twitter—introduced changes that drastically limited how news organisations share content, leaving many scrambling just days before the U.S. presidential election.

This shift, along with similar moves by other platforms like Meta and Reddit, has serious implications for how we access information and, ultimately, for the health of our democracies.

Social media is an unavoidable part of modern political campaigns, but for openly LGBTQIA+ politicians, it is also a dangerous space.

New research shows queer politicians faced highly personal and identity-based abuse during the last federal election—far beyond what their straight, cisgender colleagues experienced.

TikTok was banned in the US! For like a day…

People in the US were using that last day to share “secrets” with their followers. Mainly, this involved telling on themselves about times they lied during their content. For example, a huge food influencer (famous for being a tiny woman who eats large amounts of food) admitted she didn’t eat all the meals she said she did.

Likewise, fitness influencers came out about lying about work outs/morning routines.

People in the US have been making videos sharing how their TikTok experience has changed since the ban and reversal. For example, their recommendations seem different, certain terms are no longer searching, video suggestions are wrong/off. Curious stuff! All speculation at this stage though!

Australia’s Federal Court has granted the eSafety commissioner a two-day legal injunction to compel X, Elon Musk’s social media platform, to hide posts showing graphic content of the Wakeley church stabbing in Sydney.

Musk has criticised the eSafety commissioner for what he has described as censorship and ‘global content bans.

Should X choose not to comply with the orders of the eSafety commissioner, it could be fined up to $550,000 or have their links removed from search engines.
