Here’s a thing I love. DR, the national tv and radio broadcasting corporation, which everyone in Denmark pays for, podcast nearly every show they do. (They often suggest that the listener can ‘podcast the show’ which is wrong use of the term and they could just as well stab me right in my internet-guy earhole.)

They can’t do it with the music heavy shows because of rights and all that but P1, the radio station, is mostly talk based radio so they have a lot of podcasts and some good ones.

One that I always listen to is Eksistens. It’s about philosophy and ethics and heavy stuff like that and it’s almost always interesting. Every week a new hour with no ads or sponsors, paid for by everyone, listened to by, I imagine‚ only me and a few hundred excentric old men.

This week’s main story was about the best-selling Danish rapper L.O.C and how he has overcome his drinking problem. He’s talking about how he was convinced he was part of The Matrix and drank to escape the paranoia. By now you must get why this is so great. He’s laughing and swearing on a national radio station with no beeping or censoring at all and he and the host seem to have a great time. They mix the interview with clips from his songs, which on his most recent album are quite house-y and right after the interview ends the program continues with an analysis of a rather long quote by Descartes.

Who is this show for? Clearly not everyone. Who is the target audience? When I’m describing it now it sounds even more weird. An hour long podcast about philosophy, ethics, hip-hop, drinking and partying, Descartes, The Matrix, hash psycoses, phenomenology, hoes and house music.

I am the target audience… and obviously no one else.
