Finding a place to rent is a massive struggle right now.

Only one per cent of rental properties across Australia are actually available, and tenants who saw some rent relief during the pandemic are now facing huge price hikes as things get back to normal.

We hear from a bunch of young people who've been battling this problem lately.

Also, a major report looking at the health risks of vaping is out - and the findings are not good.

Plus, the story of how an Indigenous charity logo ended up on the side of multi-million dollar Formula One cars in this weekend's Australian Grand Prix.

And why are less than 20 per cent of Wikipedia profiles about women? A group of Australians are trying to change that.
