    Corporate Sellout

    A liberal arts student suddenly finds himself working for the quintessential kind of massive corporation: An insurance company. This is a classic fish-out-of-water story about colliding attitudes and the impossibility of adapting to this otherworldly universe. The liberal arts student in question was obviously me, and I was 25 years old at the time. I learned a lot from holding this job, and my views of what big corporations are all about were forever shaped by the experience.

    Yes, today, Satan (part 3)

    When you’re 17 years old and have just left satanism behind, what comes next on the long road of intellectual self-discovery? Regular old atheism? Nihilism? Or something else entirely? This is part three of a three-part episode about my journey to the Dark Side.

    Yes, today, Satan (part 2)

    A newly minted 16-year-old satanist goes to highschool. His teacher, who will be forced to read all of his devilish essays, is an older woman, who also happens to be a former priest. Now, there’s a match made in heaven – or is it hell? This is part two of a three-part episode about my journey to the Dark Side.

    Yes, today, Satan (part 1)

    Satanism can be surprisingly appealing to a white, middle-class teenage boy in Denmark, if he’s sufficiently ripe for taking a stand against the hypocrisy of Christianity. Part one of a three-part episode about my journey to the Dark Side.

    Sunny Down Snuff, I'm Alright (part 2)

    How do you discover a band that you thought you already knew and had maybe even written off as an uncool oldies band? That’s one of the main questions I ponder in the second part of this marathon episode about the Beach Boys. The episode contains an exclusive performance by Grandaddy’s Jason Lytle.

    Sunny Down Snuff, I'm Alright (part 1)

    This is a story about the Beach Boys. But it’s also a story of how identities are formed. About how music is not simply the soundtrack to your life, but also something that influences it and offers many new and inspiring perspectives on it. It’s also a story about friendships and, not least, love. Part one of a two-part episode.

    Dark Sarcasm in the Classroom

    It’s one thing to be bullied by the other kids in school. But it’s quite something when your teacher decides to join in. This story serves as an account of my relationship with a teacher that I endured for nine years of public school. It’s not just a tale of woe, however, as it also covers how I finally confronted him many years later.
