about
Dale Mundt is a 24 year old husband, father, veteran, and grilled cheese artist. He loves life, depression, and burritos. He aspires to finish college, hitchhike to South America, and teach Jaeda the “Thriller” dance.
He is currently living in or around Madison, WI, posing as an English/Philosophy double major at UW. He loves watching Arrested Development with his wife and the free play of signifiers. He listens to the Beatles when he is thinking, Feist when he is happy, Okkervil River when he is loving friends, and early 90’s hardcore gangster rap when he is grocery shopping.
He grew up in a magical realm called ‘Fundamentalia’. In this magical kingdom, God wanted you to grow up intellectually and emotionally stunted while you grew more and more convinced of your superiority. Hopefully, you would learn to focus your superiority on people who didn’t live in ‘Fundamentalia’. This allowed you to ignore all of the things in your life that didn’t add up. If that wasn’t enough, there was always Bible college, a four year institution dedicated to fostering your infantile emotional state, destroying the seeds of critical thinking, brainwashing you with medieval gender roles, and building a sense of superiority so powerful it would stay with you until your children enrolled in the bible college.
But, by some happy accident, Dale escaped with absolutely no bitterness or residual issues that he is now being forced to deal with.
