Many of the radio listeners noted that Geijer played "Beväpna er", a song by Ebba Grön. This was celebrated by some and criticized by others, and references was made to when Athena Farrokhzad was criticized for playing the same song on the show in 2014.[5]

Geijer has hosted survival courses at ABF were a zombie apocalypse was used as a scenario for survival.[1][2] In December 2014, he published the book Zombieöverlevnad: din guide till apokalypsen, about how to survive a zombie invasion.[6]
