Your Shortcut to... Rafael Nadal's legendary career
In this Squiz Shortcut, we’ll take a look at the “King of Clay” Rafael Nadal who was back in action at the French Open earlier this week. “Rafa”, as he’s affectionately known, has an extraordinary record at Roland Garros, having won the men’s singles trophy 14 times - prompting some to say it should be named after him. But his dream of taking home a 15th title wasn’t to be and he bowed out in the first round. At nearly 38 years old, Nadal has been battling to stay at the top of the game after 2

Your Shortcut to... University Campus Protests
In this Squiz Shortcut, we’ll look at why college students are protesting about the Gaza war at campuses across the United States. They’ve made headlines over the past month because some of the demonstrations have turned violent, sparking debates over free speech and even forcing the White House to weigh in. They’ve also spread to Aussie universities, where students have set up camps, and tensions are running high. So we'll look at what they’re trying to achieve and their likely impact - if any.

Your Shortcut to... The Nuclear Power Debate
In this Shortcut, we’re talking about nuclear power—which has been back in the news lately, with the Coalition announcing it wants it to be part of Australia’s energy mix. It’s far from a new idea, and while many countries have embraced it to generate their power cleanly and cheaply, Australia is still debating it. So we’ll look at what nuclear power is, how it could work in Australia, and whether it could be a realistic solution for our energy needs.

Your Shortcut to... The Push to Ban TikTok
If you know somebody under the age of 18 there’s a strong chance that they’re on TikTok, the massively popular social media app for making and sharing short videos.

Squiz Shortcuts: Your Shortcut to... artificial intelligence
The Squiz team is taking the long weekend, so we thought we'd share our latest Squiz Shortcuts episode with you. Artificial intelligence, or AI, has been getting quite a bit of really bad press lately, with experts warning it could ultimately spell the end of the human race. So in this Squiz Shortcut, we take a look at what AI is, why some of the biggest names in tech are so worried, and what governments are going to do about it.

Part 2 of How Far We’ve Come, a 6-part dive into the history of women's financial freedom and independence in Australia.

What there hasn't been is a lot of discussion about the policy proposals that have been put up for the next 3 years and beyond. So let's get a taste of that now.
