Have you hear of Clavicular? Well, he's the posterboy for "Looksmaxxing"
What started as a niche corner of the internet has exploded into a mainstream movement, where young men are obsessed with 'maximising' their physical attractiveness at any cost.

Today, we go inside the concerning rise of the looksmaxxing trend, investigate the 'Clavicular' lore that resulted in an explosive 60 Minutes interview, and find out why this movement is taking a dark and dangerous turn for men's mental health

The National Disability Insurance Scheme was designed as a lifetime guarantee, ensuring eligible Australians receive the individualised support needed to live an ordinary life.
In a major shift ahead of the May Budget, the government is moving to tighten spending, including a plan to remove 160,000 people from the NDIS.
But for the families who rely on this funding for therapy and essential daily support, there is a growing fear that the safety net is being pulled back before public systems are ready to catch them.
We're joined by ABC National Disability Affairs Reporter Nas Campanella to unpack what these changes actually look like in practice and whether the NDIS can be made sustainable without leaving our most vulnerable behind.
