Intact Again Podcast

In this episode of Intact Again Podcast, we return to Turkey through the story of Dark Wish, who was circumcised as a child in a mass ceremony held in a school converted into a makeshift surgical site — one of hundreds of boys cut that same day. Dark Wish shares how he first learned about circumcision and foreskin restoration as a teenager, the years he spent processing anger, grief, and disconnection from his body, and the practical obstacles he faced trying to begin restoring while living through Turkey's economic downturn, a weak exchange rate, high tariffs, and a global pandemic. He talks candidly about persistence, self-acceptance, and what he'd tell his younger self — plus advice for anyone considering starting their own restoration journey. Content note: This episode includes frank discussion of circumcision, sexual sensation, and restoration methods. Listener discretion advised.
