Identity with Kyle Dickinson

The Naked Man Podcast

Show Notes

Andy Greene begins his conversational journey with father, husband, writer and friend, Kyle Dickinson (@kmdickinson). We open the door to explore the confusing and overwhelming issues surrounding Identity. We begin where our friendship began, in Munich, Germany on a lonely Christmas, and from there, travel across the clarifying and terrifying landscapes wrought by the various identities we share and don't share. Kyle and I investigate the BS "Nice Guy" mythos we inhabited in our adolescence, our traumatic origins as "Drawers," and why we can't look away from the Big Bad Wolf. We introduce the Wolf/Dog concept with a hat tip to Derek DelGaudio's In & Of Itself (streaming on Hulu). We read poems about parenthood, struggle with our masculinity, with being the nerd or the chubby kid on the baseball team. We try to be better together.
