Hi guys and welcome back to another episode of Life Uncut, I'm Laura and I'm Brittany And before Laura says that I'm going to say it, this is a very special episode of Life Uncut because it is our, I guess it's like our bonus radio show episode. This is from our Saturday morning on Kiss FM. If you guys don't know, I hope you do because you're literally here listening to it. We are on every Saturday around Australia from 10 to 12. Well, we just launch it every week. We're going to package up our radio show that we do if you don't get a chance to listen to it live, which, you know, we would love that. but if you don't have the time to go sit in your car or fire it up on the laptop we are popping it

into our podcast libraries every single week and we had such a fun show this week not only did we unpack a few interesting things but one thing we talked about were wild middle names and if you've been listening to the podcast for a while you might know that Brit has a very interesting middle name and we got a few of you guys to call in and give us what your crazy ridiculous wild middle name is The other thing that we talked about on the show was I tried to do something nice for my sister. Lol. I tried.

Well, it didn't really turn out that way. So we're going to get into that in a little while too. It definitely did not end well. And I am going to be on to you if you ever tried to do anything nice to me. The next time I bring you a croissant, you're going to be like, what is this? I'm going to be very sceptical. The Life Uncut Radio Show. With Britt Hockley and Laura Byrne.

We love love! One kiss. Actually, they're only your first names, ladies, but I believe we're talking about middle names. We are talking about middle names. Well, we're talking about weird names in general, I think. I don't know if you guys heard, but there is a mother in the UK who's recently made the news because she named her baby, who's now seven months old, Lucifer.

Lucifer. And she's been trolled online by people because not knowing that Lucifer is actually also the name of the devil. The devil, yeah. But the thing with this is she was then told by multiple people, including her family, close friends, what Lucifer was. and her reaction was well i'm not religious so to me it doesn't mean the devil it's just a name she couldn't differentiate that the rest of the world thinks that she has named her son the devil

but do you think that what other people's opinions are of the name that you're going to name your child should determine the name i mean brit you have an interesting middle name i mean if you're calling your kid the devil then yes i think outside outside it really impacts you depending on how that child behaves as a toddler it could be a very very fitting name i'm sure there's times where she'll feel that that's exactly the name for that child. 100%. Maybe like some of your kids. No, Mitch.

Now, Laura knows I do have a pretty unusual middle name. I don't know either of your middle names, so this is exciting. Okay, so I'm going to give you three guesses for my middle name. Out of the whole world of names? No, I'm turning to a game show. Here, let's give him some parameters. I'm going to give you a hint to start with, and if you get it wrong, we're going to give you another hint.

Okay, sure. Do you want some game show music? I can get some. Yeah, bring in some game show music. All right, let's go. I want a buzzer. Okay. And what else do you want?

You want a bus? You want a cake? Give me some notice lights. If you get this right, I'm going to buy you a lunch. I'm going to buy you a salad stick, a.k.a. a kebab. Your favourite. I already bought him lunch, so good try. I'll buy you dinner.

Okay, what am I getting? Give me the game. What am I doing? So my name is, my middle name is named after, it's a condiment that you would find in your supermarket. Brittany Mustard Hockley? Oh, that was pretty close. Really?

If that was my first guess at it's close. Okay, okay. It starts with the same letter. It starts with the same letter. M. Yeah. Brittany. Oh, condiment.

What's like the best, one of your favourite condiments? Brittany Marmite Hockley. This is stupid. Well, sorry. All right, I have another clue. It's creamy and delicious. You can get low fat, high fat, full fat. You would put it on.

Oh, I got it, yeah? What is it? Wait, wait. Why am I? I want to say margarine, but that is your middle name. That's so stupid. Okay, last hint. Your last hint for my middle name.

So it starts with an M. Yeah. It is something that if you were going to have like a true Aussie chicken roll, like a chicken salad roll, what condiment would you put on that chicken roll? Like a barbecue chook. The fear in his eyes. Come on. Mayonnaise?

Yes. Sorry. Can we just all say this out loud? Brittany Mayonnaise Hockley. No, it's mayo. Mayo for sure. The real Aussie version slang of a good chicken roll. Oh my God.

It's Brittany Mayo. Yeah. So, and the best part about this middle name is, it's one child in every generation has to have it. So one of my poor future children has to have Mayo. Also, why was it you? Like, I feel like Mayo could have been better for a boy. Why did they go Brittany's the lucky one?

Mitchell Mayo? Nah. Yeah. You're not even the first born. It was just in the middle. They just picked you. I'm the third born. We want to know about yours though.

131065, give us a call. That's what we're after. Weird middle names. Is that right? Weird middle names. What's the name that you want to keep a deep, dark, dirty secret? We have Beck on the air this morning. Hi, Beck.

What's your weird middle name? It's actually my daughter's weird middle name, and we called her Danger. Okay, what? Danger? Why? If you know, you're going to call her Danger. Why?

You got cut to the chase. Okay, but my question is, if you're going to call a radio station and say that your kid's name is weird, why did you name them a weird name? Well, I guess we kind of thought, who doesn't legitimately want to say that their middle name is Danger?

Yeah, true. And we kind of thought, no one really likes their middle name anyway, So we may as well pick something that's a little bit fun. And I don't know if you guys subscribe to the whole you're drunken alter ego is your middle name. Wait, what's that? Your girl's going to be dangerous.

I just feel like you're setting them up for sort of like an approach with caution kind of thing for when they're a bit older because I feel like you really start to embody your name. Like for me, I put Mayo on everything now. If my name wasn't Mayo, would I have done that? I don't know. But now what if like she embodies danger? Or what if this comes back to bite you in the ass

and she's actually just dangerous for you guys. As in, like, turns out to be a real problem child. Well, it is funny. She's 10 now and she's a really responsible kind of serious kind of kid. That's funny. So it's almost when the opposite of me. Who loves to read books. The other way, yeah.

Okay, well, you just shut down everything we just said. Yeah, she did. Let's go to Jessica on 131065. Hello, Jess. You're on with the girls. What's your weird middle name? It's actually, oh, hi. Hi, Jess.

It's a friend of mine or a guy that I used to date. He got to change his own middle name when he was about three years old. He actually never had one, and his little brother came along and they gave his little brother a middle name. He was like, why don't I get one? So, like, okay, what do you want? And so he was obsessed with foxes at the time, so he chose the middle name Fox.

At three years old, they gave him the autonomy to choose his own name. I feel like three-year-olds can't be trusted for anything. Like, if I ask my three-year-old what she wants for dinner, She'll say lollipop, let alone what I'm going to name her. She'll say Blippi. I don't think I'd let my three-year-old name my dog. Let alone a child. But you know what?

Fox is pretty good. Yeah, I actually like Fox, so I think we'll let that one slide. Yeah, I like Fox too. I think it was a good choice. Yeah, there you go. One positive one. Let's go to Katie on 131065. Morning, Katie.

What's your weird middle name? Hey, yeah. My mum decided to put her whole name in as my middle name. So it's not so much about... Like her full name? How many names are we talking about? Are we saying first name, middle name, and last name? Like how much of the name?

No, so it's her first name and last name, but pretty much the reason was because when she was pregnant with me, she wasn't entirely sure that she was going to keep the guy around, but she was sure she was going to have me, so she just wanted to make sure that I would always remember that she birthed me, you know. So she gave you 26 names so that you would never forget that. So she got her maiden name in.

What is your full name? Well, she might not want to say that on the radio. it's not even that funny but um I didn't understand when I was a kid that you weren't really meant to add in your own names but because I had so many I would just pop in her one bit of a Lillian bit of a Ramsey it's a bit of a trouble for my landlord to figure out which one's my name but other than that it's all good you know I kind of like that you have some alter egos but I also like that you danced around telling us what your actual name is there that was very clever She did it so well.

I don't even know if you're Ramsey or Lillian. Who are you? Katie, who are you? Katie's a mystery. All right. Thank you, Katie. Good calls. The more you know.

Katie's a mystery. She's an enigma. She is. Wasn't even a real name. Do you want to know what? Off the back of this, I thought, what names are actually banned in Australia? Because you know, we do have, every country has names that are banned. You cannot call your kids.

Anyway, you would not believe something. I'm going to run through a few. Anzac, Australia, Baron, Bishop, Cadet, Captain, Chief Wait, as one name? No, all of these names Okay, nothing military You can't name your child after the military So nothing military

And then God, Honour, Justice, Judge Nothing to do with religion Yes, yes, understand But these are the two that really got me You cannot call your child Ikea Do you think it's because Ikea has trademarked the name Or because somebody's actually named their child Ikea and the Australian government went, that's a terrible idea.

That's too far. I don't know. But you also can't call it Nutella or iMac. It's actually ridiculous. Like, it is actually ridiculous. So if you're out there thinking that you want to call your child iMac or monkey, think again. You absolutely cannot.

If only Mayo had been trademarked as well. I'm trademarking it now. I agree. All new in 22. For your Saturday morning, the last uncut radio show with Britt Hockley and Laura Byrne. On Kiss. Laura, you're a bit upset.

Something's happened with your family. Well, I'm not really upset. I need a bit of, I want to know your opinion on whether I should admit something to my sister. I feel like the answer's always no. If you need to ask someone if you should admit something, I feel like you just bury it. I feel like the other problem is that we're on a national radio show,

so she might find out after this. Okay, every week I do my grocery shopping online these days. I find it very convenient and I do two different shops. I do my Woolworths shop and then I also do my shop through a health food store, right? And they send us, for all the snacks for the kids, Like I get roll ups that aren't really roll ups, but like healthy snacks. I did not know this about you.

I feel like there are two kinds of people in the world. One that does one grocery shop and one that does multiple grocery shops. I love to surprise you. But anyway, so the story is my health food box arrived and sometimes they like to give you a sample or they give you like extra things in there that you didn't actually order. Right. So I received the box and I received these little biscuit donuts. Yum.

I like a packet of them. And I was like, oh, that's cute. I'll take them into work with me. So I went into work and I took them. I work with my sister I took these little biscuit donuts in and I gave one to her and I wasn't eating them at the time I was eating something else she was like these are great take them take them home give them to my so generous yeah I feel like I know where it's going as well okay well I got home guys and realized with the little insert that had been put into the box that had all the

details about what I'd been sent I gave her dog biscuits which she ate at the office and then gave to my nephew okay hang on okay i haven't i haven't told her yet it happened just the other day she knows now i'm telling you she just heard she knows a few questions how was there not like what was the packaging because i feel like most of these things have like a really happy dog on the front no they don't well this is like you know what it's like really cool like and that's the problem with like minimal everything's cool and it's like earthy paper and it just has like minimal details honestly didn't see anything on the packaging that made you think and they were donuts with icing little biscuits so you're saying there was not one picture of a dog not one word of

a dog or are you like tell the truth here laura did you just not look at the title did you were like oh shimmery sparkly donut okay to be fair the packaging obviously didn't look dog-like because she took it and she ate it and i opened it in front of her but the insert that was the details which was also attached to the bag so i had to pull that off before i gave it to her if that was me i would be going to tell her because i would think it was hysterical also in your defense if it was like if you fed her pal or chump i wouldn't be i would not be trying to tell her that it was a curry like how would she eat that that's what i mean like you'd be like hey these are like sardines on toast no but the fact that it was like an organic it's probably got full of really good

food that you'd feed your kid anyway yeah yeah it's healthy it's healthy yeah coconut oils carob i mean it's from the health food store it has to be right tell her tell no but tell her when next time she's pissed you off be like well you know what i fed your dog you've had dog treats and your hair looks great. It's glossy. So suck on that. Every week we do this, right, ladies? What's an Ask Uncut?

Ask Uncut is where you guys write into us your deepest, darkest, sometimes dirtiest questions to our Instagram, Life Uncut Podcast, and we do our best to answer them. Now, we're not therapists, but we are enthusiastic in our responses and we have lived a lot of life. So what do we have today, Mitch? Ladies, Sarah has sent us a voice message today. It's a question.

Hey, girls. So I have a question and I'm not sure if I'm being a nosy neighbour or a good friend. My husband and I moved into our house about a year ago and we became friends with our neighbours to the point that we share drinks together from time to time. We have him and his partner over. And what we've learned, he's actually a fly-in, fly-out worker,

which means he's away for a couple of days at a time. And what I've noticed is every time he goes away, there's a particular car that shows up in the driveway at night time so i guess my question is do you think the neighbor is cheating and if that's the case should i say something to him or let it be any advice would be great thank you spicy this is a saucy i mean i understand why you're a nosy neighbor but also i very strongly feel like sometimes we just don't need to invite the drama into our lives like if that was me i would be staying out of it oh they're for sure cheating how do you know it could be there could be other reasons it could be a cleaner that only

comes when he's not around it only comes at night time when he's away and not and not there yeah six foot tall and ripped look obviously you can't say obviously you can't say 100 that they're cheating but usually where there's smoke there's fire do i think you need to say something no i do not think this is your business what you could do is like set up a little camp at night stay up one night yes and figure out figure it out yeah detective sarah this has a ring to it and i think that way at least you'll know within yourself or you might worry yourself sick thinking about it but i do i think that you need to go and break this knowledge unless these people are so close and like really really good friends of yours i think just mind your own business and

just use it as some viewing okay but what if detective sarah does do a stakeout and she does discover that actually it's pretty 99.9% sure that the cheating is going on the cheating is happening should she then tell or or do you think find out get all the information gather it and then sit on it forever and then just never tell her like what's the point of doing a stakeout if you're not going to then help your neighbor out from history from experience i think that you should only be interfering if these are very very close people to you because it is going to have some big repercussions maybe send a letter and just drop it in a letterbox a friendly Yeah, but don't say it's from you.

Don't sign it. Don't put on a letterhead. I genuinely feel like sometimes with this sort of stuff in life, as much as you want to do the right thing and help the person who you think is being cheated on, inviting that drama into your life can be so full on. So decide on that. On the flip side, Laura, if this was you and every time your partner

went away and every time you went away, sorry, your partner, I mean you have a partner, Matt, was cheating on you, would you want to know whether that came from me, a good friend, or whether that came from a neighbour that just saw it happening. Regardless, if your partner was cheating on you, would you want to know? I would 100% want to know. This is the conundrum.

This is the conundrum. But would I like my neighbour for telling me? I probably would still be. I don't think I would intentionally shoot the messenger, but it's just what happens when you're hurt and you're angry. So you'd put a bag of poop on their door and set it on fire. I feel like that's what you'd do, Britt. This is the Life Uncut Radio Show.

Britt Hockley and Laura Byrne. On Kiss. We may have shared a little bit from last week, which was us singing to Footloose, and apparently I don't know any of the words. Yeah, he's the audio. Very embarrassing. So hard.

Footloose. I don't know the words. No one does. I just need to know Footloose. Footloose. Footloose. Britt and I know it all. Pick up your Sunday shoes.

Please. Who is? And Laura knew none of it. We did that to warm up before the show started. Look, I stand on this. I think that most people think they know the lyrics to songs. They're like, oh, yeah, I know every lyric. But then if you actually were to sing the verse,

everyone knows the chorus. I agree with that. But I think the shock that we had was at the beginning where you were like, what is this song? No, I knew the song. I only knew Footloose, the one word. And then you guys kind of took it away. And I felt very isolated, very lonely.

We wanted to isolate you as you will, Brittany, today because we are playing Finish the Song lyric. I've got a whole bunch of iconic songs and I'm going to challenge the two of you to finish said song lyrics. Oh, God, here we go. This is going to be embarrassing for everyone. How did these two girls get a radio show? I'm actually known for this, for making up lyrics,

for never knowing the right lyrics. Oh, she talks a tall talk. No, for getting it wrong, I mean. I always make them up. This is what I think actually happened when we were all singing Footloose. Britt just goes into it with the sheer confidence of someone who thinks they know what they're talking about and she was singing lyrics that weren't actually the lyrics

but no one pulled her up on it. Fake it till you make it, you'll never know. I could have thought she said footmoose at one point. No, that's not the lyric. All right, let's go. Use your names to buzz in, ladies. I will play the beginning of the hit song and they will stop and it is your job to finish the lyrics.

What's your name, Brittany? Mayo. Mayo. Mayo and you're going to be Anne. Okay, Anne. Here we go. The ladies' middle names. Let's go.

Song number one. Welcome to the hotel. Mayo. Jeez. I don't even know. Welcome to the hotel, California. That's the lyrics that we all had. It's a lonely place.

It's a lovely place It's a lovely place It's a friendly face Okay, Brittany does not know the lyrics And she made them all up just then Living it up in a hotel California Let's hear it Ready a room at the hotel California

No Any time of year Any time of year Both got it wrong It's a lovely place is actually the lyrics You both got it wrong That's devastating Also, Britt, you can't just buzz in because you want to play.

Oh, so that's not how it works. But I just want to have some fun. Okay. Okay, Britt's just like anything. She's like, I'll come up with the lyrics. Let's go. The song hasn't even started yet. I'm like, Britt, okay.

Laura's in the lead. And. Oh, and, yeah, Laura. I feel stupid and contagious. Okay, I'm definitely tone deaf, but I think they're the lyrics. Oh, I'll take that. Here we are now. Entertain us.

Axolotl. Axolotl. Did she just say axolotl? Yeah, I thought it would be funny. That's the Mexican walking fish. Oh, my God. One more. Maybe you're just like my mother.

She's never satisfied. Why do we scream at each other? Yeah. Again, that's what I'm going with. This is what it sounds like when the doves cry. I don't think you can take the part that you got wrong, which is the part that I clearly got right, and then continue singing it right.

This is what we scream at each other. This is what it sounds like when the doves cry. Why do we scream at each other? Yeah, Laura got that. And then this is what it's like when the doves cry. No, Britt, you can't just say you got it right when you didn't. But I said more. I think this is an off-air discussion.

Do you know what is an on-air discussion? it's the fact that even though I had all of the answers to all of the lyrics right in front of myself I still managed to get them all wrong you did and you called me a cheater on national radio and I was like I am not you are the cheater and you guys still didn't nail it what is wrong with you both to be fair Mitch actually played them out of order and I'd learnt them perfectly in order and you also jumped in too early and I was like okay don't don't do well under pressure I don't Deal well under pressure. Also, just don't know lyrics.

It's really bad. It's not my party trick. Just don't trust your co-hosts, evidently. Learning so much this morning. The Life Uncut Radio Show. With Britt Hockley and Laura Byrne. We love them! One kiss.

You've been working from home. I didn't know that. Yeah, well, I mean, we always work from home. Since I haven't been working at the hospital, all my jobs are at home. Now, I've been trying to do a lot more jobs in person lately as opposed to Zoom calls when I can. I think it's more personal. I think you get to know the people.

We do a lot of interviews in person now that, you know, everything's lifted. Now, I had a big business meeting last week. She's a business girl. It was a man, a male, and I said, he's like, look, I'm coming to Bondi. And I'm like, cool, why don't you pop in, have a coffee, we'll chat. He's like, great. So he came in. We're sitting down in my little office, having a chat, having a coffee.

And my new puppy runs past. Now, I'm trying to be very professional. I got dressed in, like, professional clothes. And anyone knows that I usually podcast in my undies. I usually don't put pants on when you have someone come to your house for a business meeting. Well, you know you're going all out when you put your clothes on, don't you? I went all out. I was dressed to the nines.

My new puppy, Delilah, comes running into the room and she's throwing something in the air. She's having a great time. She's obviously found a toy and she's playing. She's throwing it around with her head. She's a little Australian shepherd and she's a ball of energy. I was like, what has she got? And the man looks down and he's like, oh, she's so cute. What is that she's playing with?

She is whipping into the air my moon cup. Oh, God. Wait, what's a moon cup? A moon cup, Mitch, let's give you a little bit of a biology lesson here. For anyone that's listening that doesn't know. A moon cup is something that women use when they're menstruating and it's a cup that you put inside yourself and it catches the period. It's literally.

Where do I get one? It's literally this plastic. No, I got it. if you didn't know what it was and you were looking at it you would have no idea right so he didn't know he didn't know so what i wanted what would in that moment would you have told him would you have told him what it was or would you have made something up i would have just been like oh sorry i'll get that no i wouldn't have talked did he hold it was he like what's she playing with did it was there any touching of the moon cup that happened here he went for it to pat her

and i took it i steamrolled in and i said i think she took that from the dishwasher and i just ran away and put it in i was like oh my god i nearly died well it's definitely a plug it belongs in the kitchen exactly right but it just made me think i buy her i have gotten delilah the best of the best of everything and her favorite toy is this little plastic period cup and you know what it's not going to work very effectively once it's got dog teeth mice but don't you do that with the kids i just feel like you know goop gwyneth poltro recently released a fifty thousand dollar play gym and it just made me think who spends that much money on their kids to play with when you could give them a piece of cardboard.

And you know, Laura, surely you give your kids a piece of cardboard and they're happy. I was wondering where you were going with that. I was like, what do I have that the kids shouldn't have? Like my children are just out there playing with my vibrator. What does this mean? Nothing, kids. Put it back.

Put it back in the dishwasher. I'm certainly not giving it to Buster as a chew toy. Put it that way. I can't lie. Head lies. All right, heaps of press written about the two of you. How many articles would you say come out in a month about the two of you ladies? Well, about Brittany Hockley at the moment,

They've been pretty consistent. I've been laying low. They are on fire about me lately. They came to you this week. They really came for me hard this week. I mean, you did leave the house and go for a walk, and that was very salacious news. God forbid.

I saw that. It was like in a white, sexy outfit. Was that what the article was? It was a bikini. They get me at my worst. There was a whole article of Bridget in a bikini this week, and you looked very good. Oh, thanks.

That's breaking news. All right, so I've got headlines for you, and you have to debunk whether or not they were headlines, in fact true or had lies in their false some are real some are made up uh let's begin okay article number one laura burn reveals she'll never leave the eastern suburbs because i quote i'm like a queen to them i think that's a lie i really hope that's a lie i'm definitely not the queen of the eastern suburbs um i i will leave i'm actually moving to another place in the eastern suburbs but it's still a rental and i will eventually move into a bigger place because

She's the queen of the eastern suburbs. You've got to get it nice and roomy if you're going to be the queen, right? You can't be living in a two-bedroom apartment. But they quoted you. I'm like a queen to them. This is a lie. It's a lie. Imagine if you said that.

It's a terrible lie. A successful podcaster, Laura Byrne, no, this is you again, Liz, is left seething after her memory card goes missing from her prized laptop. I do like that they called me a successful podcaster. That's better than some of the things they've called me. My toddler took my SD card out of the SD card reader And then when I asked her where she put it, she said, in my mouth. So that's a headline.

Yes. That's great. That's real. I wasn't seething, though. I was just like, oh, that's very inconvenient. Was it damaged? Did you have to get a new one? I think it may have come out her other end.

But I didn't go looking for it out in the backyard with the dog. All right. Another one. Let's move on. This one. This is a fresh one. Brittany Hockley teases an inclusion at Dawson's Creek reunion after photo shoot with Rebel Wilson.

What's this? Good song. Great song. Isn't that a great tune? That brings me back like some nostalgia, so many good feelings. Are you going to be in the remake? That is, yeah. Dawson's Creek are making a remake and they've cast me as the lead.

Could you imagine if that was true? I mean, the headline is true, yes. We had like a little shoot on a wharf that we thought was funny and it looked like Dawson's Creek. It reminded me of Dawson's Creek. So that is it. But unfortunately, no, I am not actually in the Dawson's Creek remake. But if they're out there listening, hey, I'm down for it.

Who would you play, though? I mean, they're all pretty messed up, aren't they? I mean, so are we, so it's fine. I'd probably play, like, Katie Holmes' character. I like that none of us can remember who they were. I've never seen it in my life. Pacey was a guy. I don't even remember.

Joey. Joey was Katie Holmes. Okay, yeah, I'd play Joey. But anyway, Mitch, that is accurate. Yeah, headline. All right, let's do another one. It's from Brittany Hockley. Brittany Hockley says, you'd be shocked to see the amount of nude images

I'd have on my phone, says the podcast superstar. That is absolutely inaccurate. I feel like maybe it could be true, but you just maybe didn't say it. That is completely inaccurate. Inaccurate. All right, give me your phone. Let me have a scroll. Well, I might have other nudes on there.

Hey. All new in 22. For your Saturday morning, the Life Uncut radio show Ladies, I've been duped this week. What happened to you, Mitch? I feel like a fool, and I want to know if you've done it too. It's highly likely, yes. Probably, yeah.

I bought something. I've had quite a lot of money. I paid $200 for a pair of blue light glasses. Why? Oofed. Because I sit in front of these screens. I have my own radio show. I do this radio show with you guys, so I'm always looking at screens,

and I thought I'll get these blue light glasses. They'll stop me from getting headaches. I sit at screens all day, and I was sold by Bailey Nelson. They look so cool. The store's nice. You walk in, they give you a glass of sand pail. I bought the glasses. Put them on Instagram and an optometrist messaged me.

I'm a spoiler. Love you. Love the show. FYI, you've been duped. Blue light isn't real. So I have blue light glasses. Oh, so you've also been duped. I think it's quite, what an issue because isn't Bailey Nelson also an optometrist at the same time?

Oh, yeah. They do legit retina stuff, but also I think the blue light. I have absolutely been duped then because I wear them. But if it makes you feel better, Mitch, I saw you wearing them and you looked super cute. You went from, like, an 8 to a 10. Oh, thank you. Don't you think that sometimes these things work as a placebo, though?

Because, like, people who wear blue light glasses, they usually wear them because the screens give them a headache and you feel like all these energies coming out of your computer. But maybe it's like a placebo. It's like your impenetrable powers now. That's my point. Because you're wearing blue light glasses. I feel like it is working.

Like, I'm okay that I've been scammed. I'm going to still wear them because I like them. I feel like it does work for me. I'll make you feel better about this. I recently spent a lot of money on something that absolutely doesn't work. Have anyone heard of those? It's called NuFace, and it's this, it's like a little, I wish I had a NuFace.

A face straight face? I know. That's not great for the self-confidence. It cost me $600. Oh, my God. And it's an at-home facial kit, right? But it's like, it's got these little currents, so it feels like you're getting tiny little electric shocks.

And it's meant to help tighten and tone your skin by, like, by, I don't know, invigorating the muscles under. It does not work. I mean, your face does look great. Do I? You do look good. Super tight. Like a tiger.

Yeah, you look good. Does it look toned and firm? So toned. Anyway, please keep telling me that. I haven't used it for a while, but I'd like to think that the $600 went to some use, even though it's sitting underneath my bed. I can't believe you spent $600 on that.

It was actually an isolation purchase. I was just sitting at home one day feeling like, oh, I would really love to do, anyway, spend $600. I'll throw myself in the mix. I also purchased something that I don't know if it works. I don't know because you Google it. Some people swear by it. Some people are saying, well, okay, no, you got duped.

I bought, and I still use it. I've been using it for like 18 months. Actually, that's a lie. Probably like two, three years. A Himalayan salt lamp. Oh, yeah. The salt lamp. They were big about three years ago.

We've all been there. Takes the radiation out of the air. Is it the radiation or is it like the wetness? That's what I was sold on. No, you can get radiation, Himalayan salt lamps. And now this is, for me, I work in radiation. I'm around radiation 12 hours a day. So in my head, I was like, imagine if, and I mean,

like I know how radiation works. It's a high-speed electron, but I take that home, which a Himalayan salt lamp can rip out of the air. That's what I mean. So like I'm a woman of science. So I think that this is why it's even more crazy. I'm a woman of science. I know what radiation is.

I go home and I'm like, do you know what? just maybe this piece of lumpy salt will help take the radiation out. I will spend hundreds of dollars on it. Why not? So I feel like I'm probably the worst one here. No, I think we're all idiots. I think that's the takeaway. Idiots with a great successful podcast, ladies.

Isn't that right? I'm radio show. If you want to hear us continue to be idiots, but on our podcast, we have an awesome episode coming up on Tuesday. Do you know who Elodie Pullen is? No, I don't. So Elodie Pullen was Alex Chompy's girlfriend. And Alex Chumpy was tragically killed last year.

He was the professional snowboarder. Do you remember? He was an Olympian and he passed out underwater while spearfishing. It was horrific. I do remember that. Very, very tragic. But we had the absolute blessing and just privilege of interviewing his beautiful girlfriend. And she has just had a baby.

And they have a wild story around how they extracted his sperm. It's just crazy. She hasn't had a baby. She's had his baby. After he passed? After he passed. Oh my God. Wow.

Yeah, so it's a really, really incredible, very inspirational, very educational as well interview. So that is, like Laura said, that is dropping on Tuesday on our podcast, Life Uncut podcast. Great, on the iHeartRadio app. Otherwise, we'll see you next week, ladies. See you next week, guys, and don't forget to tell your mum, tell your dad, tell your dog, tell your friends,

and share the love because we love love. Miss any of the Life Uncut radio show with Britt Hockley and Laura Baird? Hear it in the Catch Up podcast on iHeartRadio. Thank you.
