„Halblang, Kleines!“ ist eine satirische Kurzhörspielsammlung des fiktiven Liedermachers Leo Greller. Greller, Vertreter der „Hamburger Schule“ deutschsprachiger Popmusik, entlarvt mit scharfem Witz die Absurditäten der Musikbranche, Medien und seines Alltags.

The fluorescent lights are dying, and the red plastic "TAKE A NUMBER" machine determines your eternity. There are no pearly gates here; only a bored Clerk, a broken system, and a terrifying realization: The only mortal sin is Judgment.
