Hey Lifers! Welcome to Offcuts, the stuff that got left in the group chat because there just wasn't room for it in the main episode!

Lola is in her recorder era and Laura no longer has a need for an alarm clock!

This week we yap about: 

• TikTok has declared 2026 the year of "nun girl summer.” We get into why choosing to be single feels so different for this generation compared to a decade ago. 
• Then things get messy in AFL land. A dad's public comment on Annie Knight's post spirals into a full-blown scandal involving a locker room dance video. 
• We debate whether Robert Irwin's Bonds campaign really was "just for the animals." 
• There's a viral pitch deck a guy sent a girl over email that might be the most iconic slide of all time. 
• And we close out with the story of a seven-year-old boy's birthday letter to his dad in heaven, and the Royal Mail worker who wrote back.

Hey Lifers!
Today's guest has to be one of the most recognisable personalities in Australian entertainment. It’s  TV host, comedian, five-time Gold Logie nominee and, until this year, the queen of the jungle herself, Julia Morris.

After 12 years hosting I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out Of Here!, Julia found out the show wouldn't be returning to its old network and she joined us fresh off processing that huge identity shift. We get her Accidentally Unfiltered story (a very unfortunate wrong recipient text sent the night before the Gold Logies), what actually goes on behind the scenes in the South African jungle, and how redesigning her life. “Adapt or Die” she says. And hate clean!

Julia also gets real with us about leaving a 16-year marriage, realising she'd been in a controlling relationship, and how being diagnosed with ADHD in her 50s helped explain patterns she'd never noticed. She talks candidly about "the great unfucking" of perimenopause and redesigning her whole life with her friends and being a mum to older girls.

And because we are absolutely not impartial: Julia is up for her fifth Gold Logie nomination this year, and we want her to win it. Link to vote is HERE 

You can find more from Julia Morris on her Instagram

Hey Lifers!

Do you like adventure or did you also pretend? Britt kicks things off with the story of the time she nearly lost her fingers on a bungee jump, which sends Laura down memory lane to her own bungee-related panic attack and the moment she realised she might not be as "adventurous" as she thought; cue a chat about being a bit of a relationship chameleon over the years.

Britt then shares a personal update on her fertility and IVF journey and news about what's next for her and Ben. Laura shares the terrifying scare she had with her dog Buster last week, a health emergency that had her fearing the worst, and a reminder to always trust your gut when it comes to your pets.

Last week we (somehow) ended up speaking about ‘sex lists’ and the strange names we all attribute to some of our ‘experiences.’ Today we share some of your funniest sex lists!

Next up, we have a conversation that we've gone back and forth on having for a long time: Ariana Grande. Off the back of the release of her new music video "Petal" and the absolute onslaught of commentary about her body, we unpack where the line sits between genuine concern, public shaming, and who actually bears responsibility in moments like this.

Content warning: This episode contains a discussion of eating disorders and disordered eating. If this is triggering for you or you'd like to speak to someone, you can call the Butterfly Foundation on 1800 33 4673, or visit butterfly.org.au.

Welcome back to Ask Uncut, where we answer your deep, dark and burning questions! Before we get into it, Britt has a story that will not be leaving her brain any time soon. Delilah went out for her last toilet break of the night and came back with an uninvited passenger.

Vibes of the week:
Britt — Abel Ceramics 
Laura — Feel Better Live More with Dr Rangan Chatterjee: "The Daily Habits That Protect Your Brain at Any Age" with Dr David Perlmutter 

Then it's into your questions!

HOW FAR DO I TAKE THE NAKED POLAROID TREND?
I'm getting married in September and my partner loves the trend where bridesmaids slip cheeky Polaroids to the groom on the wedding day. My question is: how far are we taking this? I'm all for a cheeky photo, but what if a naked photo of me falls out of his jacket pocket and is seen by a family member? Do I make them too explicit, or should they be more covered up? It's a little wild to have them at an event where everyone I know is there. If it gets picked up by the wrong person, they'll know exactly who it is.

MY FRIEND IS A MASSIVE TIGHT ASS
We're a group of friends, and one particular friend is always the tight ass. Small things like not paying you back for weeks, only splitting the bill if she's had more drinks than everyone else, always rounding down when we transfer money. Recently she organised a group activity and we figured out she actually profited off our contributions. How do we bring this up? Is it worth it, or do I just slowly moonwalk out of the friendship? She's definitely not struggling financially, she just has always been tight.

HOW DO I FIND A GUY WITHOUT BEING A STALKER?
About a year and a half ago, my ex's friend asked me out and I said no. It was too soon, too close to home. I recently ran into him at his workplace and realised I'd actually like to go on a date with him now. I know he's single, but he's not on social media, I don't have his number, and I can't exactly show up at his work without looking desperate. How do I ask him out or spontaneously meet him?

SHOULD I TELL MY BOYFRIEND HE'S ESSENTIALLY PAYING OFF MY MORTGAGE?
I bought my apartment five years ago and only have about $80K left on the mortgage. My boyfriend is moving in, and since we'd be paying $400 a week each if we were renting, that's what I've asked him to contribute. The catch is my mortgage is interest-only and only costs $300 a month. So his contribution is basically paying it off super fast, and I haven't told him how little is actually left. I don't think it's unfair, since he'd pay the same renting anyway. What should I do?"

Welcome to Offcuts, where we chat about whatever piqued our interest this week in a light, fun little package to send you off on your weekend! Laura's kid just smashed 100 days of school (in the cutest granny costume you've ever seen), and we're diving into fantasy coffins; literal works of art you can be buried in. Penis-shaped or otherwise. We unpack Chelsea Handler's now-infamous, ultra-detailed family vacation manifesto and whether it's fair to publicly shame your own family for content. Then we get into Usher's dismissive, borderline-childish reaction to a fan who didn't want to be grinded on at his concert. And finally, the manager’s "one week's notice" gastro group chat text that's gone properly viral.

We chat:

• Lola's 100 days of school granny costume 👵
• Fantasy coffins; what would YOU be buried in?
• Chelsea Handler's viral 9-page family vacation manifesto
• Usher's very unimpressed reaction to a fan who didn't want to grind on stage

This week we sat down with Alexa Leary; two-time Paralympic gold medallist, world record holder, and author of Sink or Swim. You might know her as Lex. You definitely know that viral clip of her dancing in Paris. In 2021, Lex was 19 and training to be a professional triathlete when a cycling accident left her with one of the most severe traumatic brain injuries Royal Brisbane Hospital had ever seen. She wasn't supposed to survive. She had seven brain operations. Doctors told her family twice to come and say goodbye. Three years later, she broke the world record in Paris.

Lex talks about what life with a TBI actually looks like day to day: the four years of memory wiped, waking up not knowing where she is, the boyfriend she couldn't remember, and the really dark period she's written about in her book for the first time. She is funny, warm, completely unfiltered, and has a really unique perspective on her second life.

We chat:

• The accident and the miracle chain of events that saved her
• Four to five years of memory wiped - including her relationship, her best friend, and a tattoo she has no memory of getting
• What a traumatic brain injury actually looks like from the inside & the stuff nobody sees
• The really low period in the middle of it all, and what she wants anyone in that place to know
• How swimming went from rehab to two gold medals and a world record in Paris
• The quantum healer who predicted her medal haul from the ICU and was right
• Her new book and the chapter she never thought she’d share

Hey Lifers! Grab the tissues for this one, it's Keeshia's very last episode with us.

Britt's off-the-shoulder wardrobe malfunction nearly gives poor Lachy a heart attack, the girls compare their infamous "keyword" notes, and we unpack the great Butter Yellow Instagram takeover of 2026 (and how the algorithm knows exactly which conspiracy theory to serve you next). There's also a deep dive into the emergency alert conspiracy rabbit hole, and a quiche-making disaster.

Then it's time to say goodbye. We take a walk down memory lane through five and a half years of Keeshia, from the 40-minutes-late first lunch meeting in Bondi, to the wedding dress airport security saga, to a truly staggering amount of bin chat. It's emotional, it's chaotic, and it's very, very us.

To close things out, we play the most divisive voice memo in Life Uncut history: a guy who sent his date an extremely detailed message about needing to "test sexual compatibility" on a second date, and debate whether brutal honesty like that deserves applause or side-eye. Naturally, that leads us back to the greatest voice memo of all time: the man who followed up a month of silence with a 10-second recording of a fart he found on the internet. We need your rogue voice memo stories, send them in.

Welcome back to Ask Uncut where we answer your deep, dark and burning questions! If you missed last Wednesday's episode, yes, it's true, and yes we're still crying about it. This is Keeshia’s last ask uncut and vibe so she is doing a bit of a 5 in 1 recommendation.

Vibes and unsubscribes this week:
Keeshia: swapping the TV for a nightly run of five dinner-table games

Then we get into your questions!

HE'S KEEPING A SCORED LOG OF OUR SEX LIFE
I recently found out my partner keeps a log of our sex life - dates, locations, what we did, and a rating out of ten. He's also noted that he's not satisfied and that it's "too vanilla." Is this normal behaviour for a man in his 40s?

HE TOLD ME MY KISSING STYLE ISN'T FOR HIM
We've just started being intimate and he kindly let me know my kissing style isn't up his alley - apparently I move my jaw too much. I've only ever kissed one way. How do you actually kiss "differently"?

MY BOYFRIEND'S CONSERVATIVE VIEWS ARE MAKING ME QUESTION EVERYTHING
I'm a 28-year-old woman of colour who's found someone chivalrous, funny and affectionate except he doesn't believe in transpeople, is against workplace inclusivity, and thinks a woman's body count shouldn't exceed his. I lied about mine. Is this a dealbreaker?

CAN I PULL OUT OF BEING A BRIDESMAID A MONTH OUT?
My friend of 20 years is getting married in four weeks and I'm a bridesmaid, but I can't stand her fiancé and I'm starting to worry he might be controlling behind closed doors. Can I bail?

Hey lifers!
Our guest Ask Uncut is back with a special guest to help unpack your deep and burning questions! It’s Urzila Carlson, comedian, actor and certified petty queen, back for her THIRD time on the pod!
You can listen/watch her other episodes here:
A Tracksuit Pants & A Puffer Jacket Movie Star - Uncut with Urzila Carlson 

GAGS, GUNS AND GRENADES - Uncut with Urzila Carlson

We kick things off with Urzila's pettiest hill to die on: an airport baggage carousel showdown that turns into a full-blown "if you're going to be an asshole, I'm going to out-asshole you" saga, plus the diamond engagement ring she flatly refuses to give back to her cheating ex.

Then we get into it cheating in queer relationships, dating (or very much not dating) after divorce, and protecting her kids from the revolving door of new partners.

Then we jump into your questions!

MY DAD IS DATING THREE WOMEN AND WE FOUND OUT HE'S SEEING HIS EX TOO
My parents got divorced five years ago and my dad has been dating ever since. He's currently seeing three different women (none of whom are officially his "girlfriend"), and my sisters and I just found out via his iPad that he's also back with his ex. He lies to us about seeing her because he knows we don't like her. Do we say something, or is this none of our business?

MY NEIGHBOUR GOT FINED $800 FOR HER BARKING DOG AND IT WAS MY FAULT
I complained to the council about my neighbour's dog barking all day and night. I didn't expect them to actually act on it. She's now been fined $800 and I've heard she's not in a great financial position. The dog has finally stopped barking, but I feel like a monster. Do I come clean, or try to anonymously help her pay it off?

I LIED AND SAID I WAS A MORNING PERSON TO IMPRESS MY BOYFRIEND
Eighteen months ago, early in our relationship, I told my boyfriend I was a morning person because he loves sunrise walks and coffee dates. I am not a morning person. We've now moved in together, my alarm goes off at 5:45am every day, and I hate my life. Do I finally tell him the truth?

I'M EIGHT MONTHS PREGNANT AND MY PARTNER IS WORRIED HE WON'T GET ENOUGH OF MY TIME
My partner has mentioned a few times that he's concerned I won't have enough time or love for him once the baby arrives. It's made me feel like I'm mothering him instead of building a family with him. Am I being hormonal, or is this a red flag?

We also get the full, chaotic story behind the name of Urzila's new show Fatty On A Yacht, including the time she showed up to what she thought was a mate's dad's tinny for a fishing trip... and it was actually a super yacht party, complete with a Bluey life jacket and a life jacket she later bought secondhand and power-washed herself.

Hey Lifers! We are finally all back in one room after weeks of holiday mode, sinus infections and very aggressive Do Not Disturb settings, and there is a LOT to get through.

First up, Laura's just landed back from Bali with a toddler who went down like a sack of gastro, and we catch up on everything we’ve missed while everyone was mixing and matching holidays. Then it's time to address the elephant in the pants: the Facebook discussion group came for Britt after last week's offcuts episode, and she is here to defend her holiday underwear rotation once and for all.

Then we sit down for a very emotional conversation. A huge change is coming for the Life Uncut team, and there isn't a dry eye in the room.

After that we unpack whether being called "lovely" or "hun" by customer service is actually patronising, or are we all just a bit too sensitive? And then, the story the whole internet is talking about. A husband wins a luxury YSL hamper at a work lunch, gives it straight to a female coworker in front of everyone, and now the internet has crowned it "the betrayal of consideration." We unpack why this one viral post has struck such a nerve with women everywhere!
