The Australian Radio Network (ARN) has confirmed that its long-running partnership with Life Uncut, the popular podcast hosted by Brittany Hockley and Laura Byrne, will come to an end at the close of 2025.

An ARN spokesperson told Mediaweek, “After six successful years together, ARN and Life Uncut will part ways at the end of 2025, allowing us to focus on new iHeart Originals launching in 2026.”

The split marks the end of one of ARN’s most successful podcast partnerships, with Life Uncut consistently ranking among Australia’s top lifestyle and relationship shows.

The podcast has also spawned a broadcast spin-off, The 3pm Pick-Up, which airs nationally across the KIIS network.

Since its debut, Life Uncut has been a staple of ARN’s iHeartRadio podcast network.

While ARN has confirmed the partnership’s end, the future of Life Uncut itself remains unclear. The company said further details “will be shared at our Upfront on 29 October.”
