What does it mean to grow up without a dad — and still want to become one? Ben, Ryan, and Yvie get raw about their relationships with masculinity, parenthood, and the fathers who raised — or failed — them. From Doja Cat’s viral fan moment to growing up queer in homes that didn’t always feel safe, the hosts reflect on forgiveness, trauma, and found family. Plus: the power of queer uncles, the idea of chosen family, and why some of us are still thinking about Bill Cosby (yikes).
