    Glenn Adams
    Aug 22 2023
    A break from monologuing about my story this week. Glenn Adams went from driving Depeche Mode and Billy Idol to living in a little Polish village, and here he shares part of his story. Not much talk of Poland here, so we'll have to get back at some point for a part two.

  • Open'er Festival

    Open'er Festival
    Aug 14 2023

    I talk about going to Open'er Festival with my friend, Jim. As per festival tradition, it's almost not about the music at all. It happened in 2012, but emotional recovery is still in progress.

    I also mention the fetishisation of the former Soviet Union.

  • Nine Months

    Nine Months
    Jul 25 2023
    I talk about settling in to life in a new, much better place, as well as sharing a little bit of advice about adjusting to a new country when the initial novelty wears away. I also share a sentence from an old phrase book that likely nobody has ever, or will ever, use in real life.
