Cody Delay is a pagan who guides his life by way of the Norse Viking Gods. He is also one of the sweetest, most endearing people I know. I got to talking with him months ago, as he is my upstairs neighbor, and ever since have wanted to get this guy's voice out there. I don't agree with his beliefs, but I fucking love that he believes in them. Thanks, Cody!

In November of 2008, I was admitted to a psychiatric facility with a dozen other teenagers with depression and anxiety. This was one of my most important, memorable and emotionally vivid times of my life. The lessons I learned in that winter were immense, and I have never shaken the sentimental value of the music I was listening to at the time. Some of it is good, most of it is embarrassing, but it is all equally important to me. In this episode, I recount that winter and the albums that got me through. Thanks to everyone who listens to this show.
