Laughing Through Grief with Toni Lodge
Toni Lodge is a comedian, the author of ‘I don’t need therapy’ (and other lies I’ve told) and half of the Toni and Ryan podcast! The perfect way to sum up today’s episode is ‘dark humour’. Toni is truly one of the funniest people we’ve ever met and she shares two of the most ‘vulnerable’ accidentally unfiltered stories we’ve ever heard.We speak about Toni’s rise to being one of the most popular podcasters in the country after being told that she wasn’t quite the right fit for the microphone when she was in radio. We speak about the different ways that people reach success in media these days and not having to check the same boxes that people used to. We take a bit of a behind the scenes tour into how podcasting actually works, how it’s monetised, who owns what etc. We speak about: The dynamics of relationships when you work with one of your closest friends Choosing to be child free and finding peace with that decision Grief can look different to what we expect it to Feeling like it was really hard to casually speak about her mum after she passed away Toni wants people to stop saying “sorry” when someone passes away Achieving things after losing a parent and wanting to be able to tell them Handling grief and sad things in general with humour creates a split crowd Writing down your non negotiables - 5 things that you will not leave this life without achieving You can find more from Toni on her Instagram and her podcast You can watch us on Youtube Find us on Instagram Join us on tiktok Or join the Facebook Discussion Group Tell your mum, tell your dad, tell your dog, tell your friend and share the love because WE LOVE LOVE!

Britt's Big Move & McLaren Man Can We Have $50k?
Ciao Bellas!Britt has some very exciting news! She knows how to order ice cream, wine and ask where the toilet is of her new 'home' and frankly, what more do you need? Matt has done a 'tucker trial' in the jungle and Britt is revisiting her worst memories of the jungle that include spitting a half chewed pig's nipple at Robert Irwin's shoe...Vote to save Matt here!MAFS is back and we unpack the over production and whether you'd give someone a second chance! It brought up some questions about whether people can actually change, whether timing is a factor or whether some people are just manipulative and reality TV literate. We've realised that after so much self development over the course of this podcast, we've still got some lessons to learn. Have you ever heard of something called 'cash for comment'? It's a bit of an industry phrase that we all have to abide by but today we're questioning whether this particular example was worth 'cracking' down on. We discuss some other examples of when it’s happened but there haven’t been repercussions for other media personalities, and whether those situations were actually more shady and manipulative.

Ask Uncut - The Return Of The Huntsmans
Hey Lifers! Laura's past is coming back to haunt Britt and this time it's in the form of 8 legged creatures! Also just a reminder that this is not a national geographic podcast and you should take our animal facts with about a 50% accuracy assumption... Vibes for the week! Britt: Nektech MassagerKeeshia: Diddy: the Making of a Bad Boy on BingeLaura: An Update On Our Family Docuseries on Binge Then we jump into your questions! MY TWO HOUSEMATES ARE SLEEPING TOGETHERWe recently found out that two of my housemates are sleeping together and I can’t help but be a little pissed off at them. The guy recently had a messy breakup in the first week of our lease where his partner (one of my best friends) had to move out. The house is only just recovering from this. The girl he is sleeping with (our other housemate) has lived with us for two and half months so she was also living with the guy's ex. I’m finding it hard to be nice to them around the house but have been told by my partner for the sake of the house to be pleasant.What should I do? FINGER UP THE BUMThis was a hot topic out for dinner with my girlfriends…. if you man sticks his finger up your butt during foreplay/sex what does it mean? Is it for your pleasure? Because he wants the same in return or could it be that he wants to try anal? Or is it just a simple finger in the butt that shouldn’t be questioned? ROOMMATES CATS DAMAGING PROPERTYI live in a shared house with two other girls. One of the girls has adopted two cats that now live with us. The cats are damaging property in the house that belongs to me like countless houseplants and scratching/making pulls in the couch. Am I within my right to ask for financial reimbursement for damages to my property or asking her to replace these items? She doesn’t apologise for the damage or destruction/death of plants and instead blames me. How should I approach this and is it fair to ask for financial reimbursement? BOYFRIEND DOESN'T WANT TO TALK ABOUT EXESIs it ok For your boyfriend of 3 years to not want to talk about his exes ? I feel like for me it’s not a big deal. Your past is your past, which is something you should be able to share with the love of your life: It’s part of who you are and why and how you’ve grown? Why should it matter if you have moved on? Why can’t or doesn’t he want to talk about it? He is 32 and I’m 28? Any suggestions or thoughts? We spoke about the episode with Haven Shepherd that you can watch here!

New Year, New You is a bit outdated, but in January many of us are looking for ways to improve our lives—whether it’s forming healthier habits, becoming more focused, or simply feeling happier. But how often do we think about how our brain chemistry plays into all this? Today, we’re joined by neuroscientist, international speaker, and author of The DOSE Effect, TJ Power. His work focuses on small, practical habits that can help us regulate our brain's key chemicals: dopamine, oxytocin, serotonin, and endorphins. Today we chat about: How the modern world affects our brain chemistry. Quick fix and crash dopamine - porn, sugar, social media, alcohol. Why we hate being bored and why boredom is good for us. The new 5 minute morning routine that will change the rest of your day. How different types of communication affects oxytocin - texting = 0, calling = some. How porn is affecting our brains and our relationships. Whether we have control over our willpower or not.

We Argue Like Sisters, But We Love Like Sisters
Hey Lifers!!!We hope you're in the mood for a bit of a chaotic laugh! We are catching up on the highlights and 'vibe' of our summer break.Laura's attempt at spicing up their sex life ended in a hard, terrible way...Britt had an overseas sauna experience that she will not forget anytime soon.Tiktok came back from cancellation quicker than we've ever seen a celebrity recover.Thinking that the app would be closed for business forever, some American tiktokers confessed their lies that helped them go viral! Some were innocent, others were a lot more on the nose. Are we surprised that creators lie in order to go viral? Not at all. But is it questionable when they've financially profited off the back of deceiving people? We speak about Trump's inauguration and how Melania's outfit choice sums up the mood. We also speak about the tech bros that attended and their attempts at rebranding their personal image.

Ask Uncut - WE'RE BACK! Plant Gate Has Entered The Chat
Hey Lifers! WELCOME BACK! We missed you so much! We're kicking off 2025 with our new schedule so Ask Uncut will now be dropping on a Monday morning (Aus time).Britt's year did not get off to the best start and Keeshia is in the naughty (plant) corner. Vibes for the week: Keeshia: Jerry Springer. Fights, Camera, Action on Netflix Laura: Mudbound film on NetflixBritt: I'm Not a Monster - The Shamima Begum Story Then we jump into your questions! NEW BF JUST HAD A BABY WITH PREVIOUS ONE NIGHT STANDI have been seeing a guy for the past 8 months. One of his previous one night stands reached out to him a few months into dating and said that she was pregnant. We decided to continue seeing each other and it was going fairly well. The baby was born a few weeks ago and I am struggling to be positive and supportive. Do you think that it would be best to let a new father sort out his relationship with his baby and baby mum before we focus on a relationship? Or could it happen simultaneously? I THINK I SLEPT WITH MY NEW HINGE MATCH’S BROTHERI have matched with someone on hinge and in my pre-stalking I’ve realised I actually have slept with his younger brother about 8 years ago....do you think it’s a big deal? They are a close family so don’t know whether to just stop talking to him now or keep pursuing and hope he doesn’t care when it comes up eventually? I THINK I HATE MY PARTNER’S CATI’ve been with my partner for 2 years now. We live together and I know he’s my penguin. However there is just one problem. His cat. Don’t get me wrong I am the BIGGEST animal lover, and I would like to think of myself as quite a patient person, but I have tried for our entire relationship to bond with this cat and while there have been some moments, the majority of it has felt transactional and filled with a lack of unconditional love that you’d get from a dog - which I’ve grown up with. He also constantly meows and often when I try to show love he scratches and bites. It’s actually at the point where I become anxious from the constant meowing. It’s eating well so that’s not the issue, and the cat is 3 years old and well trained. My partner absolutely adores this cat and it’s recently become apparent to him that I don’t quite feel the same. However I am at the point where I actually cannot stand it. Idk what to do? Pls help! FRIEND HAS BEEN LYING ABOUT SOMETHING – IS THIS A BIG DEAL?My best friend of 5 years has just told me that ever since we’ve been friends she’s been lying and that her ‘younger brother’ is actually not her brother. She told me he was her biological brother, he has the same mum but he didn’t speak with their mum and lives with his dad and step mum. This whole time she has referred to him as her brother and even when I have asked about their mum she would say something along the lines of “he prefers to be with his step mum”. She said she told me when she was drunk and just kept the lie going but it got too far to say anything so she never did. He is now apparently just ‘like a brother’. She said now that she is about to get married she doesn’t want me to question it at the wedding and thought it was time to fess up. I don’t know how to feel. It doesn’t feel that deep but at the same time, I’ve been lied to by my best friend for 5 years so it feels quite icky and a bit weird. So my question is, should I be mad/upset about this or is it not that deep? In the past I feel like she does tend to lie a bit as I have caught her out before about something else.
