Daddy Issues: Inner Fathers & Queer Longing
In this episode, Darren Main explores the provocative and often misunderstood topic of daddy issues within gay men’s inner lives and relationships. His guest, Greg—founder of the Ganymede Project and facilitator of the Queer Men's Virtual Dream Circle—shares insights from his essay on the subject, informed by years of Jungian psychoanalysis. Together, they unpack the archetype of the inner father, age-gap relationships, the erotic and psychological dynamics at play, and how queer men can use self-inquiry and dream work to foster healing and maturity. Expect a mix of intellect, humor, and personal stories that challenge stigma and invite depth.
