US-born artist Kirsha Kaechele's Ladies Lounge, a "conceptual artwork" in the MONA in Tasmania, was found to be discriminatory towards NSW Jason Lau, when he was refused entry to the space in April last year. This week, Tarla Lambert and Angela Priestley break down what the case was all about, and what's next for the Ladies Lounge.

On this week's episode of The Crux, we also discuss Serena Williams' venture capital fund that has helped 14 startups reach unicorn status, extraordinary developments in the Bruce Lehrmann defamation trial, plus some exciting wins in Australia and around the world to get you through the weekend!

Stories discussed this week:

• Victorian public sector workers to get paid reproductive and period leave
• 2500 older Swiss women just landed a massive climate victory
• Serena Williams has invested in 14 startups that have now reached unicorn status
• MONA’s women-only lounge discriminated against a man by refusing his entry, tribunal rules
• If ‘building rapport’ means paying for sex, drugs and a $361 steak, then there is something seriously wrong with the Australian media

The Crux is produced by Agenda Media, the 100% women founded and owned media business, publishing the daily news publication Women's Agenda.
