Is Australia's social media ban *actually* working?

Australia banned under-16s from social media at the start of summer, and the world has been watching.

Today, we're doing a full audit. What the ban is doing, what it isn't, and whether we even built it on the right foundations.

GUESTS:

• Josh Taylor -- technology reporter for The Guardian.
• Jocelyn Brewer -- psychologist and founder of Digital Nutrition.

With a special appearance from John Livingstone, Head of Digital Policy at UNICEF Australia. You can hear Rae's full interview with him when it's released next Wednesday (25/03/2026).

Rae also mentioned If Books Could Kill's analysis of The Anxious Generation by Jonathan Haidt.

This episode was produced on the lands of the Burramattagal people.
