Barack Obama is back on the campaign trail for Democrats, and over the weekend criticised some voters for finding "excuses" to not vote a woman for president. The former president has taken some flak for his remarks, but polling indicates there is a widening gap between how men and women intend to vote in this election.

Sarah, Justin and Marianna unpack the reasons for this shift and why Donald Trump has been appearing on a large number of alternative media outlets aimed at young men. With rumours circling that Kamala Harris is considering an appearance on Joe Rogan's podcast, what are the risks and rewards for Harris in stepping away from traditional media outlets?
