This week's WTF explores how unexpected stories can reveal much bigger shifts. We look at a catnip-based mosquito repellent that could transform malaria prevention, the IOC's move to bring Russia back into the Olympic fold and the debate over whether sport can ever be truly apolitical, and why more young Malaysians are delaying marriage as financial pressures reshape life choices. Plus, our weekly recommendations, from documentaries and books to Netflix, Instagram, Harry Potter, and one very expensive durian.
