    Ask Uncut - 6 Minute Voice Notes, Horny Separations & When Is The Relationship Over?
    Jun 29 2025
    Welcome back to ask uncut where we answer your deep and burning questions! Laura is in pregnancy hell and she’s in the pregnancy insomnia stage. She’s also so sleep deprived that she’s forgetting the stories she’s told us. Vibes for the week: Britt - The Better Sister Laura -Artists Jesse Cleay and Ella Marin Keeshia - Monte Mader Flipping Tables Podcast - The Downfall Of Dogma Then we jump into your questions! SEPARATED BUT I NEED SEX - DO I GO THE APPS?! - DON’T WANT EX TO KNOWMy husband and I separated in march, we had been together 12 years and married for 7 with 2 kids under 5. It hasn’t been amicable and to be honest I think I mourned the relationship a long time before we actually separated. My question is.. I’m horny! I in no way shape or form am ready to date a man but a girl has needs. My girlfriends keep saying I should get on the apps which seems good in theory except that I live in a small city where everyone knows everyone and I know I will come across his mates on the apps who will tell him that I’m on there and then he will be even nastier than he is now. I just don’t know if I should say ‘fuck it’ and do it or is it too soon? Help IS A 6 MIN VOICE NOTE FROM A POTENTIAL DATE A RED FLAGMy friend was chatting to a guy on hinge for 2 days. They eventually exchanged numbers and after 4 days they planned to meet, but she got cold feet because he was appearing too ‘keen’. Keen as in messaging multiple times throughout the day without her responding and would do things such as react to messages to get her attention in hopes she would respond. She attempted the slow fade away, replying after 24-48 hours later. However he wasn’t getting the message and she decided to tell him she wasn’t interested in pursuing anything. As a response he sent her a 6 MINUTE voice message, attempting to convince her to give him a chance. My friend is CONSIDERING giving him a go, because she appreciates the effort he has made. (Keep in mind they haven’t met yet). I think this is an awful idea and a 6 minute voice message is a big red flag. What would you do? HOW TO KNOW IF RELATIONSHIP IS OVERHow to know when your relationship is done? My husband and I have been together for almost 11 years. We’ve been through ALOT in that time including a separation and couples counselling. We have an almost 3 year old and suffered a miscarriage 3 months ago after trying for 16 months. Long story short, everything he does lately pisses me off. He teases our son which I hate because I copped that as a kid and it made me incredibly uncomfortable and gave me low self esteem. I’ve spoken to him about it and “he’s doing it for fun and to make him less soft” but I just find it mean. There’s that and a few other things and I can’t tell whether we’re just going through a rough patch with everything that’s happened or whether I’m just done. Interested to hear your opinions. CAN I TELL MY INLAWS I DON’T WANT THEM STAYING OVER NIGHT?My in-laws currently live 1.5hrs away from us. Often when they come to visit us, they want to stay the night. We have two young children and a small unit. I find it all gets a bit overwhelming when they stay over because they have big personalities and quite different views to mine. My partner also clashes with his parents at times and it can all get quite heated. They also have a small dog who like to piss in our house on arrival They want to move even further away from us. I think they think they will just stay over at our place when they want to see their grandchildren. I’m all for day visits and catch ups but is it rude to tell them they can’t stay at our place overnight? How do you word that nicely? Should I just suck it up and let them stay over from time to time?

  • Why Does Desire Change & When Was The Last Time You Felt Pleasure? Uncut with Dr Jenn Gunsaullus

    Why Does Desire Change & When Was The Last Time You Felt Pleasure? Uncut with Dr Jenn Gunsaullus
    Jun 26 2025

    One of the most common questions we get from our listeners is ‘where has my desire gone and how do I get it back?’ It seems to be something every one of us experiences at different stages of our lives and we still don’t seem to be talking about it all that much. Speaking of things we don’t talk about, when was the last time you self pleasured? How about your partner? Do you ask them when they masturbate? Don’t worry, we don’t either. But maybe we should!

    Joining us is the incredible Dr. Jennifer Gunsaullus, aka ‘Dr. Jenn,’ a sociologist, sexologist, TEDx speaker, and ‘Vagina Warrior’. With over 20 years of experience in the field of sexual health, Dr Jenn is here to break down how we all feel about desire and pleasure for ourselves and within our relationships!

    We spoke about:

    • How our attitudes have changed when it comes to talking about sex
    • How girls and boys are socialised differently when it comes to our bodies
    • When to talk to kids about their ‘urges’
    • How our desire levels change over our lifetime and so does ‘what feels good’
    • Is porn a common problem in relationships?
    • Are you the higher desire person or lower desire person in your relationship?
    • How important is it to masturbate?
    • Practical ways that you can bring your desire back

    You can find Dr Jenn’s new book From Madness to Mindfulness: Reinventing Sex for Women
