In this second half of our conversation with comedian Mikkel Klint-Thorius, we dive even deeper into Danish humor, cultural taboos, political satire, and how comedy evolves with the times. From reflections on “casual racism” in old material to Denmark’s unique relationship with free speech, intent, and edge-pushing jokes, Mikkel gives a refreshingly honest look at what it means to perform comedy in a rapidly shifting cultural landscape.
We also explore how internationals can navigate Danish humor, why Danes love when the joke is about them, and the social dynamics that shape what’s acceptable and what crosses the line. And yes, there’s talk of politics, cancel-culture waves, generational trauma, the US comedy civil war, and why Norwegians find Danes a bit… intense.
It’s an insightful, funny, and very open conversation about identity, comedy, culture, and everything in between.
