Ge and David are debuting a new level of unfiltered chaos with Uncut, a reoccurring series of live, unedited banter. In our Uncut episodes, we will peel back the layers in our attempts to keep on adulting, and invite you into a world of raw conversation.

This week, we give you the honest truth on where we’re at with our New Year’s resolutions. Get ready for Ge to spill the beans on her ongoing love affair with Uber Eats, and learn about David’s new and weird decision to save carbs for the end of his meals. We discuss how to stay motivated in pursuing our goals, and effectively bouncing back when life throws you curveballs.

Changing your job or moving to a new city can be scary. Sometimes we struggle to find the courage to make the changes we know we need, but as we get older, it can feel like it's now or never to take such risks. This week, while Ge recovers from her wild vacation, David chats with Preet Mondair. Having just turned 30 this year, Preet has spent the last decade in a radical pursuit of joy. Jumping from job to job at a dizzying pace, conquering mental health challenges while completing her Masters, and finally learning to step into her true, authentic self in leaving home for a new city, Preet's story is one of courage over fear. As a close friend, David is so proud of Preet's journey and humbled by the opportunity to share it with all of you. We hope you enjoy this week's conversation!
