“When I joined therapy, [foreskin] was what I was most scared to talk about. I was shaking.”

This week, Andy is joined by Georganne Chapin, Founding Executive Director of Intact America, and Willy Kaye, a circumcision survivor, to discuss the history and myths surrounding the very American medical procedure of circumcision.

We start by taking a 12 question True/False quiz about circumcision, foreskin and the science around it. From there, we talk about Willy’s trauma for having a circumcision and Andy’s trauma around not having one, and the shame and irony that boys and men everywhere, intact or not, are uncomfortable to talk about this issue. But it’s time to talk about it.

PLUS!

-did the guy (Dr. Kellogg) who invented corn flakes popularize circumcision to prevent masturbation?

-is this all about money? (yes.)

-what is the intactivism movement?

-how circumcisions took doctors and rooms away from COVID-19 patients

-how the medical industry doesn’t take a stance on this issue and puts the burden and pressure on the parents

“You don't have to be the best one when you're 22 or the best one when you're 32. You don't have to be anyone's favorite. You just have to be proud of yourself for yourself.”

It’s your party, here we go

Hi friends, I’m Andy Greene… and I’m The Naked Man. 

The Naked Man Podcast is my journey of vulnerability, to reconnect with my body and rediscover the child inside.

In our first two seasons, we read my birth chart, we spoke to my ancestors, we even met my therapist. 

Now, in our third season, I’m peeling back even more layers. 

I’m being coached on intuitive eating.

I’m confronting my shame about not having a circumcision.

I’m trying to figure out who I am without gender as a crutch.

…because this is The Naked Man Podcast.

Remove your armor, unleash your curiosity and join me, wherever you podcast.

"Almost every moment I’ve been hurt or that I’ve hurt others has come when I was trying to act like a man or how I thought a man was supposed to act, or when I was acting differently than a man should."

This week, I talk about a fateful journey to the bookstore and identifying as gender nonconforming.

This tale touches upon the frightful nature of all-male spaces, shame, privilege, King David and the Underground Rave, Christmastime jewelry and the power of sampler trays.

“You're here to transform yourself.” This week, Danny Santos (@santoscrystalvisions) AKA the Astro Daddy reads my astrological chart. Danny Santos is an archetypal astrologer on a mission to become an ayahuasca shaman. So yeah, he's rad. The result is a deeper dive into astrology that uncovers where I've been, what I'm good at, what I need to work on, and what my DESTINY is. It's a lot. 

We see why I love quality, nature, food, art and music, appreciating things as they are. Why I desire stability. Why my soul can't develop any further through the Taurus perspective. How my Scorpio Rising indicates a need to go underneath, inward. We uncover my potent karma, to be the friggin' Grim Reaper of my bloodline on a mission to heal ancestral trauma. We uncover a wounded sense of boundaries that has been around early in life. I learn that I'm "an incredibly Venus-oriented person" and that I have a lot of healing/work to do in the fields of eroticism, sensuality and sexuality that has long been infected by shame. I start that work in this episode, revealing my primary wound.

Who was I in a past life? Why does travel help me? What are my destiny signs? (Spoilers: PISCES and LEO, call me.) Why do I need to learn how to dream? Why the hell does improv come up? How does my mom fit into the equation? What is up with my gut? How is 'Daddy' part of my destiny?

Take a trip with Danny and I through "the proponents of the universe," the stars. 

"This is what weaves our universe together." - Danny Santos.
