Mike "Biz" Ludders

Michael Carl Ludders was sired by Loki and born in a thunderstorm. Legend has it that he is an immortal shape-shifter and has been all of history's great polemicists: Orwell, Hitchens, Winfrey. Fueled by coffee and whiskey, there is no greater advocate and no worse antagonist.

Mike and Peter were placed on the same freshman hall at Kenyon by a capricious and possibly suicidal Res Life computer algorithm and miraculously Norton Hall survived the year with minimal damage. They roomed in the same apartment senior year and property damage was kept in the low-four digits.

Graduation and a continent's physical distance has proven no obstacle to the continuation of debates now well into their second decade. Mike currently resides in Seattle, where he ghostwrites for both Bill Maher and Bill O'Reilly.
