Denmark doesn’t have mountains, but it’s residents do have opinions about hills. Strong ones . Derek and Conrad are here to unpack why a modest hill called Himmelbjerg became one of Denmark’s most famous landmarks, even though it’s not the country’s highest point. Along the way, they explore how definitions, measurements, and perspective shape what we think is true and why a flat country spends so much time debating elevation. The story reveals more than geography. It offers a window into Danish humor, identity, and the quiet art of not taking yourself too seriously.  Derek Hartman:  https://www.instagram.com/derekhartmandk   https://youtube.com/c/robetrotting https://tiktok.com/@derekhartmandk www.facebook.com/robetrotting Conrad Molden: https://instagram.com/conradmoldencomedy https://youtube.com/c/conradmolden https://tiktok.com/@conradmolden   https://facebook.com/conradmolden https://www.conradmolden.dk 🎟️ Come see the show in person!
