Gemini Placements

Hey hot people. how y'all holding up at the precipice of nuclear war? Grab a drink or whatever else chills you out and join us as we get lit and talk shit, trying our dang best to distract you from the fucked-upness of current world events. Sam eavesdrops and transcribes a hilarious convo at the gym, Anya rambles about the motherland, and then the episode partially turns into a musical?! Anything goes bb it's the apocalypse <3

It's 2022 and we are here to answer TWO QUESTIONS that are on everyone's minds rn.....1. Does COVID cause brain damage? (YES) and 2. Should OHIP cover lobotomies? (Please!?) Just kidding - we talk about the current Venus & Mercury retrogrades, getting cum in your eye, autoerotic asphyxiation, cannibalism, the new season of Euphoria, why being vulnerable online is cringe & various other wholesome topics. Tell a friend!

We're cringe. You're cringe. Everyone is cringe.  We dive into different ways that cringe exists in the world and roast them all, while continuing to roast ourselves along the way. It's clearly been awhile since we have recorded an episode so don't expect anything to make sense. 

Miss us? Well, it's been a moment because DAMN we've been werking and werking hard! Salons reopened in Ontario on June 30th and it's been an avalanche of intense haircuts, colour corrections and emotions cascading upon us ever since... We worked a solid 13 hour shift and then sat down in the salon staff room to record this episode for you all to get a sneak peek into what our world is like right now. We share our experiences of coming back after this 8 month lockdown and also just discuss what it's like to be a hairstylist in general. There's anecdotes, rants and tangents aplenty. For all our service industry friends - you will FEEL SEEN! For everyone else - please listen with an open mind.  Light content warning: This episode has brief mentions of disordered eating, body dysmorphia and themes of weight loss/diet culture.

No seriously, does anyone know anymore, because we don't.  As the world slowly slips further into chaos, we try to make sense of about three things that have happened over the last week or two. Follow along on our incessant ramblings, stream of consciousness style conversations, and of course, several digressions. At least we're finally back together again!

Move over, Gwyneth 🙄 - Gemini Placements gotchu with a full blown health and wellness episode featuring a very very special guest! Coach Maja (@majathestrong on IG) is a personal trainer and a beautiful Gemini soul who answers our relentless questions about all things nutrition and fitness. What the heck is a macro? *IS* butter a carb? Can everybody get abs? Motivational, educational with a splash of ridiculous - get into it FIT FAM 💪  Light Content Warning: This episode mentions themes of diet culture and eating disorders - we keep it positive but encourage anyone in a negative headspace to skip this episode and come back later. Be gentle with yourself always <3

HEAVY TRIGGER/CONTENT WARNING: This episode discusses mental health, mental illness, addiction, suicide, police brutality, and other heavy subjects that can be very upsetting.  In this intense episode, we sit down and discuss a very pressing issue. Mental health is something that affects each and every one of us. Corporations, like the major telecommunications conglomerate, BELL, have taken notice and latched on, monetizing this to their advantage. We get real about what Bell is doing behind closed doors as well as discuss how mental health has affected us directly.

WE'RE BACK.. barely..  Screech has cancer, microdosing, and FITNESS. Join us as our brains jump from one topic to another like a mental game of parkour.

It's ECLIPSE SZN baby! We're back with the latest instalment of chaos and on this one we get a lil' mouthy. We mean that in the sense that we talk a lot, and we also drop a few "F" bombs (so keep that in mind if you have kiddos around). We catch up with each other about what we have been up to in the last week and our feelings about the current lockdown situation. Then we get down to business. We talk about the current and upcoming eclipses, the monumental Jupiter/Saturn conjunction, and we give a little Astrology 101 where we do a light breakdown of every sign, and suggest ways for each sign to approach/move through this eclipse season. Editor's Note: This was our first time recording remotely so you may notice moments where the audio seems a little choppy. We are still working out the kinks (no shaming here), so please bear with us 🐻🙏🏻💖

Oh man...being angry at the entire world sure is tiring, isn't it? Have you ever heard the term "Toxic Activism"? At some point in our twenties we found ourselves on both sides of it and had to take a step back.  Join us two retired keyboard warriors as we reminisce and share our experiences of our involvement in vegan and feminist spaces, on and offline, and the dangers of polarized thinking. Please take everything we say with a grain of salt and an open mind!

Ever felt like all the good things that are happening to you are purely based on luck or coincidence? Ever felt like you need to downplay the success you have had because you don't feel like you truly deserve it? Ever felt like a phony and at any minute you'll be exposed to everyone around you and lose everything? Sounds chill right? Turns out.. YOU'RE NOT ALONE! This week we sit down and discuss Imposter Syndrome and everything that comes along with it for us personally, and also how it may manifest for people in general.  **This episode also features our very first guest and what a guest they are!**

Feeling a little fuzzy and disoriented? Uuuuhhhhhhmmm us too. We talk about the FEELS of creating and releasing something into the world, deep dive into Retrogrades, and take an in-depth look into why people hate Scorpios so much....Yeah, all that and so much more. Buckle up!!!!! Thanks KIRKLAND <3 

Welcome to the first ever episode of Gemini Placements!! Get to know us and dive into the nonsense. In this episode we discuss ourselves, other people as well as things, stuff, and nothing at all. Chaos reigns.

back for our quarterly update, we're once again talking about nothing and everything at the same time. a couple people asked us if we were ever coming back and we realized we were letting down 100% of our listeners so we're here to entertain the 2 or 3 of you that are still around. thank you for your continued support and thank you to Kirkland for always playing hard to get. 

Remember us? Of course you do, we're unforgettable - but it's been a minute, huh? Coming at you from the shadowy pits of our souls where a lot of healing and feeling's been going on, we're here to take you through retrograde season...and fill you in on some niche internet drama while we're at it. We get astrological AND psychological in this episode talking about the !!!FIVE!!! retrogrades that are about to plunge us into the depths of personal transformation. Are you ready to meet your shadow? No? Too bad.

Iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit's...........Pisces Season! Get in loser, we're going crying. Nah, just kidding. We are here to make you cringe and laugh as per usual. It's been a looooong lockdown - maybe you've also forgotten how to be a person? Have no fear - in this episode we gonna learn SPORTS, CELEBRITIES, and maybe a little astrology too. Bonus ASMR - it's the episode that just keeps on giving. 

Ye ye yeeeeee it's that time again! Feeling fucked up? Blame Mercury. This episode is air sign energy in a nutshell - not a single topic gets missed. We have stories, we have ruminations, we have incriminating confessions....Get into it and ride the Aquarian wave! R.I.P. SCREECH <3
