About this Podcast:

Speaking Body is a podcast hosted by Neil Gorman that approaches culture, relationships, and everyday life through the lens of Lacanian psychoanalysis, treating it not as a closed theory but as a living clinical practice. It explores how subjectivity speaks through the body—through symptoms, desire, impasses, and enjoyment—while engaging art, politics, and contemporary life with rigor, openness, and a touch of irony. speakingbody.substack.com
