  • Not Buying Into Beauty Trends & Capitalism - Uncut with Sarah Wilson

    Not Buying Into Beauty Trends & Capitalism - Uncut with Sarah Wilson
    2025/06/12

    Today’s guest is the brilliant Sarah Wilson. Sarah Wilson is a multi-New York Times bestselling author, social philosopher, international keynote speaker, minimalist and philanthropist. She edited Cosmopolitan Australia at 29, founded the global I Quit Sugar movement, hosted Masterchef Australia – and wrote the bestseller First, We Make the Beast Beautiful.

    We previously had Sarah on the podcast 2 years ago where we spoke about dating in your forties, how Sarah had moved to Paris with only own 2 suitcases worth of belongings!

    Since we last spoke, Sarah has ended her long-running podcast Wild, and started serialising her new book on system collapse. Today, we’re talking about the chaos we’re all living through — the systems collapsing around us, the tech bros running wild, and the very real sense that everything’s just... a bit cooked.

    We also dive into:

    • Living in a minimalistic way and how it’s classy in some cultures
    • Australia is a young person’s culture with botox, lashes and ‘invisible’ older women
    • Should we also have a tax on fast fashion?
    • How beauty ideals change based on what’s going on economically
    • What it means to find meaning in messy times
    • Why Sarah’s book will likely be banned in the US
    • Why community and connection are more important than ever

  • A Tracksuit Pants & A Puffer Jacket Movie Star - Uncut with Urzila Carlson

    A Tracksuit Pants & A Puffer Jacket Movie Star - Uncut with Urzila Carlson
    2025/06/05

    Today, we're thrilled to welcome back one of our favourite guests — the hilarious and unfiltered Urzila Carlson. This episode is perfect if you need a real chuckle! Urzila joined the pod back in 2022 for an episode titled ‘Gags, Guns, and Grenades’ and that should indicate that she was one of the funniest people we’ve ever interviewed. In that chat we spoke about growing up ‘proper poor’ in South Africa, before moving to New Zealand and becoming a comic.

    Urzila has recently finished a very successful run of shows at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival and started her new You Don’t Say tour. But that's not all — she's also now a big movie star in Netflix’s rom com Kinda Pregnant, starring alongside Amy Schumer. It was the number one movie worldwide with over 25 million views in its first week.​

    In today’s episode we spoke about:

    • Urzila starring in a huge Netflix film alongside Amy Schumer
    • What Amy Schumer and Adam Sandler are like
    • Urzila’s divorce, then engagement, then break up and whether she’ll stay single
    • Her ‘exclusive’ and iconic break up line that you can also use!
    • How Urzila got the part and Britt’s attempt to copy her
    • How comedy is crafted and how Urzila finds some of her best jokes in mundane things
    • The behind the scenes of the film and how much Urzila got to make her own lines
    • Needing a friend who will clean out your humiliating things

  • Fertility 'Waiting Rooms' & Telling A Friend That You're Pregnant When They're Struggling With Fertility

    Fertility 'Waiting Rooms' & Telling A Friend That You're Pregnant When They're Struggling With Fertility
    2025/06/03

    Hey lifers!

    If you’re married, did one of you in the partnership want the marriage more than the other? Britt and Ben came to the decision mutually…we think. Ben blink twice 😂Britt is in trouble for ‘practicing’ wearing her wedding ring and Laura shares the behind the scenes of designing Britt’s wedding rings and deciding on the size of the diamonds.

    Are you a road rager or do you keep your cool? How about if you’ve got your kids in the car. Laura thought she was on top of it but Lola has exposed the truth of her driving habits!

    Today we have a deep chat about how to navigate your close friendships when you’re in different phases of life especially when it comes to pregnancy and fertility. Laura shares her hesitations and considerations of telling Britt that she was pregnant with their third baby. Britt opens up about the range of emotions she experienced. We unpack whether it’s actually possible to hold space for both joy and sadness in a friendship—being happy for someone and grieving something for yourself at the same time.

    We speak about:

    • How do you hold space for your excitement while also being mindful of friends who might have a different experience with fertility?
    • What it’s like to be in the ‘waiting room’ of motherhood—not knowing what your outcome will be
    • The confusion around when is the right time to have children
    • Fertility privilege
    • The best way to tell a friend you’re pregnant if they’re struggling with fertility

  • Ask Uncut - Passive Aggressive 👍🏾, Big Babies & Friend Ditched Me When They Became An Influencer

    Ask Uncut - Passive Aggressive 👍🏾, Big Babies & Friend Ditched Me When They Became An Influencer
    2025/06/01
    Welcome back to ask uncut where we answer all of your deep, dark and burning questions. What’s the most passive aggressive text you’ve ever received? Is ‘K’, a thumbs up or no message at all the worst? Vibes for the week:Britt - Estee Lauder Double Wear Stay-in-Place Makeup Keeshia - Electric Blanket Laura - ChatGPT scam check Then we jump into your questions! GUY CAME IN ME WITHOUT ASKING - AM I OVERREACTING? I started seeing a guy a few weeks ago that I was genuinely into. We met on Hinge, had been on a few dates, and things were going really well. He seemed sweet and thoughtful — he even UberEats-ed me Panadol when I mentioned I had a headache, and we’d had a lot of great chats. Fast forward to last week: he invited me over for a wine and pizza night. One thing led to another and we ended up having sex — unprotected (which I now regret, but I felt too awkward in the moment to say anything). Then, without asking or even warning me, he finished inside me. I was stunned. He gave me a kiss, got dressed, and didn’t bring it up at all. I just layed there in shock, pretending to fall asleep because I didn’t know how to respond.The next day, he sent me a long message apologising — completely unprompted — saying it was a split-second decision that he instantly regretted. While I appreciated the apology, I can’t shake the feeling that this is a dealbreaker. At that moment, he chose his own convenience over my autonomy and my body. I keep going back and forth in my head — am I overreacting? I’d love to know your thoughts, because as much as I liked him, I’m not sure I can come back from something like this so early on. FRIEND DITCHED ME AFTER BECOMING AN INFLUENCER What do you do if an old friend who you used to talk to from time to time suddenly unfollows you on insta after becoming an influencer? I went to primary school & most of high school with this person in a rural town. He was probably my first childhood crush & after high school he was trying to make it big through YouTube which I supported along the way. He even messaged me saying he was so grateful for my support. Then he started posting different content which got him really recognised & then he unfollowed a bunch of his old friends, including me. I still respond to his stories from time to time as he is constantly smashing massive goals in life to do with his career. However, recently he’s just gotten engaged which he posted on his story & it makes me sad to think he cut me off. I want to tell him congratulations & that I am excited for what the future brings for him, but every other reaction to his story is just met with a like of my reaction. What should I do? I’m not sure how to move on - if comes into my mind every time I see his stories. PEOPLE COMMENTING ON MY BABY’S BIG SIZE I have a 2.5 year old daughter who has always been a ‘big baby’. She was 4.3kg at birth and in the 95th percentile for height, weight and head when she was little and now she wears size 4. I honestly don’t even notice it (except picking her up sometimes) and she is a healthy happy child. However friends, family and strangers comment on her size all the time - wow she is so big, omg she is huge, constantly comparing her height to their children etc I have even had ‘being tall is ok but you also have to be really skinny otherwise it’s not attractive’ I guess my question is when the hell did we become ok with commenting on a child’s size/weight and how do I respond? My partner and I sometimes make jokes about the size of her head so we can take a joke these just go too far FRIEND WANTS TO BRING DAUGHTER INSTEAD OF HUSBAND TO OUR WEDDING We were meant to be married on March 7 on the Gold Coast. But due to cyclone Alfred our wedding was swept away. We have lost $35k and now in a legal battle with the venue and caterers (don't even get me started on that). Due to everything that’s happened we have decided to have a bit more of a low key wedding in Melbourne as that is where I am from and most of my friends and family are there. Anyway I have two close work mates I invited to the wedding. To be respectful I invited their husbands even though I don’t know them very well. One of them is coming solo. The other has asked if she can bring her 18 year old daughter instead of her husband.. I gotta ask what would you do? I said no btw.
