A Hack investigation has uncovered a co-ordinated effort to scalp Fred again.. tickets. One analyst reckons 20% of ticket purchases being made were done by bots and sold on for huge markups, and experts say big businesses can't keep up. And a kill notice, some dodgy photoshop and an Instagram apology: what is going on with the royal response to those Princess Kate rumours? Plus, a food bank in regional Victoria is trialling a new kind of food shop: a free supermarket for uni students. Guests: Dr Shaanan Cohney, cybersecurity expert, University of Melbourne Sean-Paul Stephens, CEO, Ngarluma Yindjibarndi Foundation
