<p>In this episode, Derek and Conrad sit down with Danish stand-up comedian <strong>Mikkel Klint Thorius</strong>, one of the sharpest, most fearless voices in Danish comedy, to talk about the jokes behind the jokes, the culture that shapes them, and why Denmark works precisely because Danes refuse to think it does.</p><br><p>Mikkel shares how he first stepped on stage at age 10, thanks to an unusually supportive teacher. Since then, his path from suburban kid to national headliner has been fueled by curiosity, self-deprecation, and a sharp instinct for cutting through Danish hypocrisy.</p><br><p>You'll hear Mikkel's take on:</p><ul><li>Why Danes complain their way into a better society</li><li>How Danish comedians “tear their own people a new one” - lovingly</li><li>His new show, <em>Nok om mig</em> (Enough About Me)</li><li>Balancing comedy with new fatherhood and personal boundaries</li><li>The art of pushing audiences to the edge and pulling them back</li></ul><p><br></p><p>It’s a conversation about comedy, culture, criticism, and the strange Danish superpower of never being satisfied, delivered with the honesty and humor that make Mikkel one of the most compelling Danish comedians working today.</p><br><p>➡️ This is part one of our conversation. Make sure you're following the show and catch part two.</p><br><p><strong>Mikkel Klint Thorius (guest)</strong></p><p>Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/klintthorius/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.instagram.com/klintthorius/</a></p><p>Facebook: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/MikkelKlintThorius/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.facebook.com/MikkelKlintThorius/</a></p><p>Ticket & tour-site for his show Nok Om Mig: <a href="https://mikkelklintthorius.dk/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://mikkelklintthorius.dk/</a></p><br><p><strong>Derek Hartman: </strong></p><p><a href="https://www.instagram.com/derekhartmandk" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.instagram.com/derekhartmandk</a> </p><p><a href="https://youtube.com/c/robetrotting" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://youtube.com/c/robetrotting</a></p><p><a href="https://tiktok.com/@derekhartmandk" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://tiktok.com/@derekhartmandk</a></p><p><a href="http://www.facebook.com/robetrotting" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">www.facebook.com/robetrotting</a></p><br><p><strong>Conrad Molden:</strong></p><p><a href="https://instagram.com/conradmoldencomedy" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://instagram.com/conradmoldencomedy</a></p><p><a href="https://youtube.com/c/conradmolden" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://youtube.com/c/conradmolden</a></p><p><a href="https://tiktok.com/@conradmolden" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://tiktok.com/@conradmolden</a> </p><p><a href="https://facebook.com/conradmolden" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://facebook.com/conradmolden</a></p><p><a href="https://www.conradmolden.dk/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.conradmolden.dk</a></p><p>📺 Watch on YouTube: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLFCSH6KqKooZmSx1GJu9CWZYjX8esjl2F" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLFCSH6KqKooZmSx1GJu9CWZYjX8esjl2F</a></p><br><p>📢 Send your questions and/or comments. </p><p>voice:<a href=" https://www.speakpipe.com/waydid" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> https://www.speakpipe.com/waydid</a></p><p>email: [email protected]</p><br><p>👉 Remember <em>to tell your friends about the podcast.</em></p><br><p>👀 More living in Denmark tips:</p><p><a href="https://instagram.com/waydidpod" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://instagram.com/waydidpod</a></p><p><a href="https://www.facebook.com/RobeTrotting/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.facebook.com/RobeTrotting/</a></p><br><p>🎧 #VoteHome podcast: <a href="https://pod.link/1742152076" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://pod.link/1742152076</a></p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
