The death of the finfluencer - a podcast by triple j

About a third of young people follow a 'finfluencer', and heaps of them actually change their financial behaviour as a result.

But now Australia's corporate watchdog ASIC is cracking down on people who share unlicensed financial advice on social media.

If they don't shut down, they could cop a $1 million fine or even jail time.

Plus, there's so much content circulating about the war between Russia and Ukraine. So how do you work out what's real, and what's propaganda?

And we chat to Rabbitohs star, Bundjalung and Yuin man Cody Walker. He opens up about the challenges he's faced - grief, injury, isolation - while trying to make it in the NRL.



Guests:
A/Prof. Matt Sussex, ANU
Dr Angel Zhong, RMIT
