Offcuts - The Nom Noms Are *Temporarily Gone, Plus Ones Are Banned & The Enhanced ‘Drug’ Olympics
5/29/202649 min
Hey Lifers! Welcome back to your weekend treat.
The nom nom nom discourse is real, it is divisive, and the feedback has been received. Laura is personally victimised. We will poll you.
Then we get into it:
- Taylor Swift is getting married and there’s plus one drama. We ask if wedding guests have a right to feel hurt when their partner doesn't make the cut?
- A woman on TikTok cried on camera because 39 children took over the pool and hot tub at her hotel; a hotel she specifically chose for the pool and hot tub.
- You can hire a woman for $500 to turn up to your funeral. It’s petty, but it’s also impactful.
- The Enhanced Games just wrapped up in Las Vegas. We speak about legal doping, $1 million prize pools, and Aussie Olympic swimmer James Magnussen throwing himself back in a decade after his Olympic career ended. Did anyone break any records? Is the IOC being petty? Should the Olympics just pay their athletes more? We get into all of it.

[upbeat music] Hi, guys, and welcome back to another episode of Life Uncut. I'm Laura. I'm Brittany. This is our Off Cuts episode, and I am feeling personally victimized. We need to unpack it. [laughs] If you guys listened to last week- You always feel [laughs] personally victimized.
Brittany Hockley· Host0:23
I am a victim. [laughs] I also have some sort of depression going on at the moment, which we unpacked last week also. It hasn't cleared up yet.
Laura Byrne· Host0:30
I don't think it just clears up. It's not a rash. You're like, "How, why is my dep- I've been putting, like, steroids on my depression. It hasn't cleared yet.
Brittany Hockley· Host0:37
I have taken some antibiotics, and my depression hasn't gone away yet, guys. [laughs] [laughs] But my thrush is great.
Laura Byrne· Host0:42
[laughs] Does your thrush get better with antibiotics? I feel like it gets- No ... the opposite. Yeah.
Brittany Hockley· Host0:47
Yeah. Thrush is fungus.
Laura Byrne· Host0:48
Okay, guys, it wasn't medical advice. It was just- [laughs] [laughs] I was just making a joke, all right? [laughs] What I would like to say to that is that if you came to Life Uncut for medical advice, please leave. [laughs] Please leave right now.
Brittany Hockley· Host1:00
Oh, God.
Laura Byrne· Host1:00
No, if you guys listened to this episode last week, so our Saturday, our Off Cuts episode, two things were covered: one, that I have some sort of raging hormones where my happiness and joy for life is- [laughs] ... really fluctuating at the moment. And firstly, I just wanna say thank you to every single person who reached out, and I've had so many kind messages from you guys. I've had everything ranging from people accusing me of being in perimenopause to people saying maybe it's postpartum or potentially PMDD, all of which, could be all.
