Climate is something that we know people care about. It’s something I think a lot of us have anxiety about and feel somewhat helpless around. 

It’s also not usually the most sexy or humorous topic; but today’s guest has somehow found the ability to interconnect all of those things in her brand new book “Nature’s last dance”. Today we are joined by Natalie Kyriacou! Natalie is an award-winnin...

Hey lifers!!

Laura had a surprise baby shower and both Britt and Keeshia were terrible friends and missed it!
Last week we offended some of y’all by saying that it was ‘weird’ to have a photo of just yourself as your own phone background… we’re sorry not sorry.

If you’re in the dating world it’s likely that you’ve got an opinion on dating apps. It’s likely that that opinion ...

Welcome back to ask uncut where we unpack all of your deep and burning questions.

We start with one of our own today! Firstly are you the type of person who is specific and actually gives an answer when you’re asked “what would you like for your birthday?” If you have told a partner/parent/close friend what you’d like for your birthday and they get you something else, is it okay to feel disappointed? Maybe o...

Hey Lifers!

Laura’s house is back in chaos and Britt has embarrassed herself in an elevator full of people. What’s your phone wallpaper? Has it ever been a hot photo of yourself?

It’s ½ the team’s birthdays. Another year older, another year w̶̶i̶̶s̶̶e̶̶r̶̶ still wondering what the heck we are doing in life. We speak about how birthdays can feel pretty anticlimactic and differently if you are spending ...

Hey Lifers!

Welcome back to ask uncut where we unpack your biggest (and sometimes smallest) life dilemmas!

Hey lifers,

Today was utterly unhinged and if you’re in the need of a giggle, press play.
Britt has a huge life update that she was forced into sharing. We aren’t in the business of gaslighting you so here is the official notice that it is not in fact a huge announcement at all. Maybe unless you’re Marie Kondo.

Laura has a dilemma of her own; she’s feeling unsure about the name she picked for her baby that will be born in 8 weeks. Did you have doubts about the name you’d chosen for your baby or did you even change it after the baby was born?

One of our lifers has done the (most) homework and tried out ‘hamstering’ so you didn’t have to. We respect it but we are likely not to attempt this for ourselves.

Disordered eating is something that so many people, especially women, have experienced. Sometimes this is so normalised by society that we don’t even realise our approach to food is disordered or could be defined as such.

Hey Lifers!
There’s brain fog and general chaos today.
We’re so excited for Tanya Hennessy with her pregnancy news. You can listen to our previous episode with her here.

If you’re in the dating world, are you video calling your potential dates first? If you are, is it to see whether you have a bit of chemistry/compatibility or is it to check they’re ‘real’ and not a bot?

We’d love you...
