The Male Loneliness Epidemic and Hegemonic Masculinity with Chuck LeBlanc

In this episode of Acid Horizon, Chuck LeBlanc, therapist and
host of Couch to Couch, joins us to explore masculinity,
loneliness, and mental health in an era of social alienation. We
discuss the male loneliness epidemic, stoic ideals, and the
harmful influence of figures like Andrew Tate and Jordan
Peterson. Chuck shares insights from his therapeutic work,
integrating Deleuze and Guattari, Hillman, and Gendlin. We
examine the historical provider archetype, the performativity of
male friendships, and social media’s role in fostering
disconnectedness. Chuck also introduces an active imagination
exercise to help clients connect with their emotions. This
episode highlights the importance of vulnerability, connection,
and rethinking masculinity in contemporary society.
