Hey lifers, We’re back from holidays! But are holidays really holidays when you have kids and you’re up at 5:30am?Laura has genuinely terrified a young surfer but she’s still got it (from behind). We took a week off and we are now a renovations/style podcast.We celebrated reaching 100 million downloads and our 6th birthday!!! We can’t thank you enough for hanging out with us throughout such different phases of our lives! We speak about the event that has GALVANISED us and ask you how you all got ‘coldplayed’ (how you found out you had been cheated on). Some of your answers were absolutely wild and our eyebrows are still raised. Women often ask themselves if they want to have children or not but maybe a more important question is ‘is this person the right person to have a child with?’ We unpack this substack written by Mad Bad Tea  We speak about how most people’s fears before having kids usually center around things like losing your identity or the impact it may have on your career but less focus seems to be on fears around resentment towards your partner for not stepping up to parenthood in an equal way. We speak about how your feelings around motherhood may be most impacted by the partner that you choose to parent with.

Welcome back to ask uncut where we answer your deep, dark and burning questions! Britt’s suffering from both a croissant injury and from a troll on instagram. Have you ever sent something to the person you’re talking about instead of the friend you meant to send it to?Vibes for the week:Britt - board game ArticulateLaura - Netflix film Scoop Keeshia - Bunnings ‘How To’ Video series  Then we jump into your questions!TO LOOK OR NOT LOOK DURING BIRTH!My entire family had a bit of a heated argument about about whether the father should have a peep at their child being born during active birth. My opinion is that the father should at least have a quick glance at what the woman has to go through to have a child. I really don’t want to sound insensitive as I know some people can be grossed out. I am also a nurse so I don’t know if that impacts my opinion as I don’t get turned off by these things. I also understand there are certain circumstances where this would not be encouraged by midwives/doctors but in best case scenario with a healthy vaginal birth, I’d love to hear what you all have to say  HOW DO I TELL MY HUSBAND I’VE BEEN ADDING TOMATO TO HIS DISHES?!My husband told me when we met that he is allergic to tomato… as in he has IBS from it and he ends up on the toilet. For 6 years I haven’t cooked with tomato, can you imagine?!! No tomato in any dishes, it’s been hell. But, about 4 weeks ago I got ballsy and I added tomato to our bolognese I even blended it so he wouldn’t see and omg it tasted amazing!!! It had been so long. He didn’t run to the toilet after and he said if it was my best one yet… obviously because it had tomato in it!!! So the last 4 weeks I have been adding tomato to our dinners and hiding it and he has been fine! So my issue is… how do I tell him? Or do I never tell him? He will be sooo mad if he finds out I did that to him! DON’T WANT TO INVITE MUM’S NEW BF TO MY WEDDINGI’m getting married next year (yay!) but I have a bit of a dilemma. My parents split a few years ago, and since then, my mum’s had a string of short-term boyfriends. She’s now dating someone new and will likely want to bring him to the wedding, as she will want to parade her ‘new man’ to the rest of the family Here’s the issue: I don’t like him, and it’s very likely they won’t still be together by then anyway. Our wedding is small and intimate, and I really don’t want a random in the photos - especially someone who might not be around long-term. Am I being unreasonable if I don’t want to invite him (or whoever she’s dating at the time)? Or is it okay to gently set that boundary? WHO MOVES FOR LONG DISTANCE LOVE?!I’m 25 and met the man of my dreams during a 2 week contiki. We clicked from the moment we met and were inseparable. He’s genuinely everything I’ve ever wanted and more. Except he lives in Canada and I’m Aussie. I have spent literally my entire life focusing on academics- sacrificing every family event imaginable to do this. I’m now a junior doctor with an immaculate reputation planning to specialise in anaesthetics which is very competitive. I don’t have a medical licence in Canada. To get one, it would be 2 exams costing $5000 assuming I pass the first time. Then I don’t think I’d have much of a chance getting into anaesthetics in a foreign country. He has spent 10 years working his way up the hierarchy of a jewellery store company, where he is now their top manager - he’s moved twice to open new stores for them. Apparently there’s very few jewellery suppliers for the stores (like whole sales I assume) in Canada- his dad owns one and this guy plans to work for his dad eventually. He’s humble so hasn’t talked specifics, but this sounds like a multimillion dollar opportunity. It is going to be INCREDIBLY difficult for either of us to move. It feels like one of us will take a massive step back in our career that we may never be able to overcome. What should I do? Do we need to give up now? We’re both on the same page that we’ve never had a connection like this before. I truly think he could be my penguin. We’ve been calling >1hour everyday for now a month post the trip. We want to make it work. But how? I don’t know how to ask one of us to make the ultimate sacrifice when we’re both so career driven. I’m realistically 8 years away from finishing anaesthetics training (assuming I get on when planned) so waiting this out isn’t really realistic.

Today we’re joined by Rawson Kirkhope — a Navy veteran, childhood domestic violence survivor, and co-founder of VRTUS, a community-first gym. When Rawson was 12 years old, he witnessed his father shoot his mother, trying to end her life. Despite the horrific violence and being on the run for a week, his father was only sentenced to 4 years in jail. This event left him with PTSD - something that he has had to learn to live with. In this episode, Rawson shares what it was like to grow up never knowing whether your home was safe. We talk about what trauma does to your sense of identity, the complexity of loving someone whilst being simultaneously terrified by them, and how those early years shaped the man he would become. If this topic is sensitive for you, please take care while listening. There is always help available and someone to talk to on 1800 RESPECT  We speak about: The reality of growing up around violence Always trying to be a ‘good’ kid to not escalate anything at home How kids who grow up around volatile parents can struggle with validation The justice system and having to testify against his own dad The complexities of PTSD and what it looks like in reality The strength of community around you Reshaping masculinity and how routine has really helped   You can find more from Rawson on instagram And VRTUS You can check out what Polished Man are doing  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!

Hey Lifers, If you happen to hear any mic bumps or mouth sounds today, please message Britt Hockley directly. Laura and Keeshia are taking a stand against Britt’s anti-podcast-establishment trial.Ben has gone home and Britt’s now in the first chapter of their long distance marriage. We speak about how ‘different’ our relationships feel pre and post marriage.Both Delilah and Matt had birthdays over the weekend except Laura almost forgot. After having a crack at Matt last week for not realising how far along Laura’s pregnancy was, Laura had some making up to do!Is it a ‘flex’ to sleep with a younger person? Charlize Theron was on the Call Her Daddy podcast last week promoting her new movie ‘the old guard 2’. Charlize is 49, a mother of two, an Oscar-winner, and basically Hollywood royalty. When Alex Cooper asked her if she had any sex tips, she responded saying that she’d recently slept with a 26 year old and it was great!Naturally, the internet had thoughts. Some people were cheering her on for owning her sexuality, others were very uncomfortable. We ask if it’s a double standard because “if men did this, we’d be up in arms” and whether we are okay with that double standard or not.

Welcome back to ask uncut where we answer your biggest dilemmas! The start of today’s ep is not safe for work… Have you heard of ‘hampstering’ or ‘the thirsty hampster’? If you’ve already listened before reading this do you wish you had never heard of it?  Vibes and Unsubscribes for the week! Britt - Unsubscribing from the movie “Drop”. Vibe - Rachel_Jane_Sculpting dog sculptures  Laura - Stakki Drink Bottle  Keeshia - Crest Motion Sensor LED Night Light  Then we jump into your questions: HOW MUCH TO SPEND ON ENGAGEMENT RING?So I have finally found THE ONE!! After a loooong and hard few years dating a bunch of bin chickens, I finally got my penguin We have talked about marriage, done the ring sizes, I’ve shown him what I would like (which he agrees would suit me) and I’m now in a pickle. He has been married before and spent a lot of money on his first wife’s ring. She was forceful, told him which one and picked the most expensive. I have said I wouldn’t expect a super expensive ring, though I also don’t want a cheap knock off one that you can find on some websites. Should it matter about how much someone spends on a ring? I feel like knowing he did pay a lot for an ex means he can at least meet halfway so I get a good quality piece I’m going to wear forever. Should I offer to pay for some of it? He has mentioned it should be about the gesture of proposing not the price. We looked up the rings he would want and they are all around a few hundred dollars. I guess this is the standard for men’s rings and I feel maybe he’s comparing that to what I should get. HOW DO I TELL BROTHERS GF SHES NOT IN THE FAMILY PHOTOSHOOTI want to organise a family photo shoot with my grandma, parents, husband, baby and my brother. My grandma is in her 90s, so I really want to get a beautiful photo of our little family while we’ve still got the chance. Now, here’s where I’m a terrible person. My brother has a partner who I honestly adore . She's gorgeous, we all get along so well, and they’re really serious. But I don’t want her in the photos. The thing is, at my wedding, his ex (who was also very serious) was in every single family photo and now I can’t display any of them without it being weird. So while I truly hope this relationship lasts forever, I just want to cover my bases this time. How do I bring this up without hurting anyone’s feelings or causing drama? Is it okay to ask? And if so, what’s the least awkward way to handle it? Help a guilty gal out! P.S we have never done a family photoshoot and probably won’t do many. SIL TOLD ME I NEVER CLEAN AT FAMILY EVENTS AND NOW I FEEL AWFULI am married and a mum of 3 kiddies who are 4.5, 2.2 yrs and almost 6 months! Life is hectic and busy, I just just graduated from my nursing degree and about to start my first job! I went out drinking with my husband, his brothers and one of their wives who I adore (she has no kids). She got very drunk and when I was leaving to say bye she basically told me that I am so incredibly lazy when we have family get together as I don't cook or clean up even though I always ask my mother in law if I can bring anything or help in any way which she says no. I generally clean up my own things but usually I'm sitting on the couch breastfeeding the baby or relaxing as I am so tired. My husband generally tells me to sit down and he will clean up for me. While on this drunk ramble, she was yelling at me and saying everyone talks about me and how I don't do anything. I feel so incredibly sad and cannot stop crying and feeling so worthless, any advice? How do I move forward and build that relationship back up? Also curious if I am in the wrong here? IS IT NORMAL NOT TO CARE WHEN MY PARTNER IS SICK?Is it normal to not care if my partner is sick or unwell? I've been with my partner for 9 years. We have a nearly 2 year old daughter. Before having her, every time he gets sick he refers to it as "man flu" and actually thinks it's a thing where men experience it worse than women. Mind you, I'm a nurse and have told him so many times man flu isn't an actual thing. It's frustrating because when I'm sick, I still do some house work around the house, maybe just the bare minimum. But when he is, the whole week is a write off for him. Now, after having our daughter, my patience and tolerance is much less when it comes to him being sick. I know he's allowed to get sick and be unwell but it's different now, we don't have the luxury to just rest and recover with an energetic toddler who we need to look after. He thinks I'm not being empathetic and cruel and maybe I am. I honestly feel like I have zero care factor when he's unwell. My priorities are different. And I know that's put a strain on our relationship. Is it just me? Will not caring affect the longevity of our relationship?
