Debbie Ging, associate professor of Digital Media and Gender in the School of Communication at DCU, joins us on this week's episode to examine influencer Andrew Tate. He is very well known among some users of the internet - and entirely unknown to others. He has been the focus of numerous headlines over the past few months, before the coverage took a sharp turn earlier this month when he was arrested, alongside his brother, in Romania. We explain more about Tate, the 'manosphere' he is part of, and the potential impact of his content.The Explainer is brought to you by The Journal.
