We asked Courtney Perkins, creator of the hilariously accurate @NotAllGeminis Instagram account, to answer our questions about astrology and relationships. Which signs are most compatible? Which pairings will have the worst breakups? What’s the difference between sun, moon, Mars, and Venus signs, and how do they influence the way we date? All this, plus Courtney explains how she saw the Brangelina trainwreck coming and why Geminis are just misunderstood. Hosted by Maeve Higgins. Brought to you by Reese Witherspoon and Hello Sunshine.

Behind author Jenny Han’s smile is the story of a breakup. Eight years ago, she met a dream dentist—gentle, caring, warm—and fell into a routine of blissful cleanings. Then, her dentist dropped a bombshell: She thought Jenny should get braces and jaw surgery to correct a misalignment. Other specialists disagreed, but Jenny found herself strangely conflicted about standing up to this woman who’d spent so much time poking around in her mouth. Hosted by Maeve Higgins.

Comedian Kelli Dunham was raised Evangelical, not Catholic, but she always knew she loved Jesus. So, at age 19, she decided become a nun, offering herself up in service to God and the Church. She tried to be obedient, following her strict order’s rules, but finally she realized that the Jesus she loved wasn’t the Jesus of the convent—and that her identity as a queer woman called her to find a new community.

We asked you to share your best break-up stories, and wow, did you deliver.
Connie Lim (aka MILCK) had a long love affair with cigarettes, even though she knew it was unhealthy—and a serious risk to her career as a singer. And like so many bad relationships, when it came time to break up, she found she couldn’t do it cleanly. It took a few tries, a few rebounds, and a whole lot of frustration. Once she made it to the other side, though, she realized why she’d needed cigarettes in the first place. Hosted by Maeve Higgins. Brought to you by Reese Witherspoon and Hello Sunshine.

Lots of comedians poke fun at themselves for laughs. And as Hannah Gadsby explains, her deep unease with success, coupled with the invisibility she often felt as a queer, autistic woman, turned self-deprecation into an automatic response on stage and off. But now Hannah has made a conscious decision to view the world in a new way—without a filter of shame. Hosted by Maeve Higgins. Brought to you by Reese Witherspoon and Hello Sunshine.
