What are You Doing in Denmark is the podcast that helps you make Denmark makes sense. The name is inspired by "hvad laver du i Danmark," one of the most-asked questions of foreigners living amongst the Danes. This show delivers a blend of education, entertainment, and virtual group therapy from your hosts Derek Hartman, Conrad Molden, Brooke Black, and Mike Walsh.


The WAYDID crew have been living in Denmark for years. They've been through all the ups and downs of living abroad and adjusting to the Danish lifestyle. Their stories spare no detail about fitting in, and not fitting in as foreigners in Denmark. The show keeps things light, positive, often hilarious - and always real.


Besides their personal trials and triumphs, you can expect wonderful guests who share their knowledge and enrich the dialogue. Fellow internationals from all walks of life and corners of the globe frequent the podcast - even some Danes have been known to stop by for a yap. Authors, musicians, comedians, actors, and more share their knowledge, advice, and experiences on What Are You Doing in Denmark, the podcast that helps you make Denmark make sense.

    154 | Public Failure, Danish Humor, and Creative Resilience (with Henrik Danielsen)
    Apr 14 2026

    Fail Publicly. Survive. Get Better. Repeat. Bombing on stage feels like dying, and that’s okay.

    Hosts Derek Hartman and Conrad Molden sit down with Danish stand-up comedian Henrik Danielsen to talk about failing in public and why it’s sometimes necessary to improve. Before becoming one of Denmark’s sharpest observational comics, Henrik spent years bombing and returning to the stage anyway.

    What begins as a comedy conversation turns into a mini therapy session on resilience, ego, and cultural expectations. They explore how failure shaped his craft, why Danish and international audiences react differently, and how self-deprecation works as both humor and social survival. This episode isn’t about overnight success. It’s about surviving awkwardness long enough to get better.

  • 153 | Why Danes Say the F-Word Around Kids (And No One Cares)

    153 | Why Danes Say the F-Word Around Kids (And No One Cares)
    Apr 7 2026

    Why is the F-word everywhere in Denmark - even around kids? Derek and Brooke unpack one of the biggest culture shocks for expats, from parenting dilemmas to why the word just doesn’t mean the same thing here.


    From hearing it in schoolyards, on the radio, and even at kids’ events… to navigating it as a parent, this conversation explores what happens when language, culture, and values collide.


    In this episode:

    • Why the F-word doesn’t carry the same weight in Denmark
    • The role of English as a second language
    • Subtitles vs dubbing and how media shapes language
    • Parenting in a culture where swearing is everywhere
    • Danish vs American attitudes toward “appropriate” language
    • A practical (and funny) guide to Danish swear words
    • A special cameo from Conrad's Danglish 1 comedy special


    If you’re raising kids in Denmark or just trying to understand Danish culture, this episode will definitely make you think twice about what words really mean.
