Are Celebrities 'Renting a Womb'? And Britt's Twinkle Toes Announcement

Are Celebrities 'Renting a Womb'? And Britt's Twinkle Toes Announcement

Hey Lifers!

Lola turned 4 and Matt would apparently prefer a mango than... intimate time with Laura. Mangoes are particularly juicy at this time of the year though.
Britt has been very busy for the last few weeks working on a secret project that she can finally reveal! We speak about how Ben felt when he first found out, why the show has such a spicy reputation overseas and how she's been going with her partner!

Are celebrities 'renting' wombs?
Surrogacy is nothing new to the celebrity world but the response to Lily Collin's baby arrival was quite unusual. Comments like: "Surrogacy becoming a trend between celebrities is one of the finest expressions of capitalism," and "You are so rich that you think you can use a woman as an incubator and you can purchase a baby."

We unpack whether we feel differently about surrogacy if a surrogate is commissioned for non medical reasons. In a world where women are told they can 'have it all and be it all,' do we have a problem when a woman outsources her pregnancy?

Ask Uncut - Millennials eye shadow is out!

Ask Uncut - Millennials eye shadow is out!

Hey Lifers, Are you wearing eye shadow? Apparently we are not fitting in with the youth anymore, but we certainly have the 'tired eyes' look covered! Britt is sad that she's missing out on some family memories. Laura's kids picked their cat, but Matt has rules and we're not sure if it will be cat or cats... Our vibes for the week: Britt - Tide stain remover pen Keeshia - Bali body Face tan serum (and Griffins Marvels Golden Gaytime Biscuits from Coles)! Laura - And Juliet Theatre Show Then we jump into your questions! I went out for a first date with a guy for a drink! I drove there so I was expecting to have 2 glasses of wine MAX over a possible 2 hours. He sat down, said we would be getting a bottle of wine - not even asking about my preference. I told him, I would prefer a glass as I was driving and he said “no that’s definitely going to change. You’ll be drinking more and staying for the bottle and eventually we will go back to yours.” I immediately felt uncomfortable and was very shut off from wanting to get to know this person which I eventually voiced. After I finished my one glass, (he on his third) I very respectfully said that I would be heading off and to be polite I said, let me know your bank details so I can transfer you for half the bottle. This morning I woke up to his bank details and he told me the bottle was $90! This is probably one of the worst dates I have ever been on so how much do I send him if any? My boyfriend of 15 months is sweet, kind, generous and patient. I, on the other hand, am passionate and fiery. I crave excitement and stimulation but find my relationship very comfortable and complacent. My boyfriend has a good job and studies, but is happy to live a fairly simple life and doesn’t push himself too hard. Despite this, he always goes above and beyond to make me feel special and loved. It hurts so bad to admit but I find myself feeling a bit bored and underwhelmed, almost as if I’m missing that spark. I know (from you guys) better than to dream about the greener grass or go chasing butterflies and thrills but I can’t help but feel as if there’s a relationship out there that would make me happier. Am I being unappreciative? What should I do; Stay with the sweet boy who is comfortable and safe? Or find someone who can match me intellectually and who I feel more chemistry with? Someone I follow posted trying to set her husband's best friend up on a date - she listed qualities of him etc. Fast forward, I’m texting this guy and we go on a first date. We both have busy schedules which are opposite which means we only share a few messages a day (I’m a fitness instructor so work mornings/nights). After not speaking to him for a whole day (he might be ghosting me) I accidentally sent my location on my way to work. MY LIVE LOCATION AT 5 AM in the morning!!! When he hasn’t even replied to my last text.How do you recover from this? I am mortified. I wanted to see this guy again  Can you guys settle a debate between me and my boyfriend? Is peeing in a pool gross? He thinks the ocean or river is fine but a pool is too far 😂 I think a pool is fine because it’s usually treated for that stuff right? Thought this was a good poll question!

American Nightmare. The Truth About the Wrongfully Labelled "Real Life Gone Girl". Uncut with Denise Huskins

American Nightmare. The Truth About the Wrongfully Labelled "Real Life Gone Girl". Uncut with Denise Huskins

We are so grateful to have been able to speak with Denise Huskins.Far too often victims of assault are not believed. The story of what happened with Denise's kidnapping and assault is harrowing. However, in this chat Denise articulates that what happened next from law enforcement, the media and the public was worse.  In March 2015, in Vallejo, CA, Denise Huskins and her boyfriend Aaron Quinn awoke from a sound sleep when armed men bound and drugged them, and then abducted Denise. Aaron was warned not to call the police, or else Denise would be killed. Aaron trusted law enforcement and called the police to try and find Denise. But instead of searching for Denise, the police accused Aaron of her murder. They said that his story was just unbelievable. When Denise was released alive, the police turned their fire on her, dubbing her the "real-life 'Gone Girl'" who had faked her own kidnapping. In this chat Denise answers so many of our questions like: Why were you and Aaron targeted? If law enforcement thought your statements were too inconsistent and unreliable to believe you, then why were you later seen as a reliable witness in court?  Why have the other kidnappers not been pursued and prosecuted?  Did the police ever take accountability for their mistakes? We speak about Denise and Aaron having to decide whether to speak out publicly to clear their names of creating a hoax kidnapping OR be used as witnesses in court to help prosecute Matthew Muller.  We also discuss how Denise and Aaron were able to help each other heal and went on to get married and have two beautiful daughters. Denise is remarkably resilient. You can watch "American Nightmare' on Netflix or read Denise and Aaron's book here. Please note that this episode discusses violent and sexual assault. If you are listening from Australia, you can find free help by calling 1800-RESPECT.    If you enjoyed this episode, you might like some others that we recorded with two of the wonderful women from The Tinder SwindlerYou might also like the episode that we recorded with Kayla Laws from the Netflix Docu series Is Anybody Up?   You can watch us on Youtube If you have an question please send it on it to life uncut podcast on InstagramJoin 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! xxSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ask Uncut - Ultimatums, 'Too Soon' and How Honest is Too Honest?

Ask Uncut - Ultimatums, 'Too Soon' and How Honest is Too Honest?

Hey Lifers!Today has been a bit of a chaotic mess, but what else is new?It's a leap year day and Queen Margaret (5 years) has an allowance for you. Britt has stuck her foot in it and basically told her pregnant friend that she didn't like her baby name. Vibes for the week:Britt - Can I tell you a secret? on Netflix Keeshia - Ali Abdaal's Deep Dive Podcast The difference between healthy and toxic relationships Laura Barney Dog Bed Then we jump into your questions! I’ve been officially dating someone for about four months, but we were in a bit of a situationship for about 5 months before that and we were friends for about 3 years before that. We have already said ‘I love you’ and talked about the future, so we’re quite serious. The only thing is, after we had been officially dating for a month, he said that the ‘honeymoon phase’ was over and that he needed to start taking a bit more time to himself. It has caused a few issues, because he’s 30 and I’m his first partner, so he’s quite a solitary person, but I need quite a bit of attention. I’m starting to regret deciding to be exclusive, but it’s a bit too late to backtrack from that now. I’m not sure how to handle this situation, because I don’t want to be the nagging girlfriend who asks for more time, but I’m also starting to get resentful about not having more of his time. A few weeks ago you answered the question to another listener about the girl who’s fiancé was going to propose to her when / after she gets her license. And an engagement under certain conditions, that was okay. My friend is in a similar situation with her boyfriend of 1 year. However, her boyfriend has said openly to her that he wants to marry her, but won’t propose to her until she gives up vaping and drinking on weeknights. I thought personally this could be problematic and potentially manipulative to have a promised engagement under certain conditions. I am dying to hear your take on this. I feel like this is a stupid question but I have been out of the dating game for so long and I need to know what's normal. I went out on a first date with a guy and it was absolutely amazing. I was lucky enough to get a kiss at the end of the date and nothing else! We are going on a second date next week. Do I kiss him on the lips when I see him next or be polite and give him a kiss on the check? When is 'too soon' to ask the person you've been going on dates with whether it's exclusive?

Work-Life Happiness and Figuring Out Your Identity When You're Adopted - Uncut with Sarah Davidson

Work-Life Happiness and Figuring Out Your Identity When You're Adopted - Uncut with Sarah Davidson

Hey Lifers,This episode was such a joy. Sarah Davidson is known as a 'funtrepreneur" (fun entrepreneur) for giving up her very successful career path in law to start her own business and find what brings her joy. Sarah speaks with incredible insight into the way that we view success and how that aligns (or doesn't) with happiness. Something a lot of us question is whether we could be feeling a bigger sense of purpose if we were doing something else, and also when to take that lunge and when not to; a cost-benefit analysis of your work-life happiness.  Another really interesting part of Sarah's story is that she was adopted at 5 months old from an orphanage in Korea. Sarah has found a different type of curiosity around her identity now that she is pregnant and will have a family member reflect her physical traits for the first time. We speak about some of the questions that adoptees face and have themselves. If you'd like to follow along with Sarah's story, or get her podcast, books etc you can find her here!
