= "living a double life" thing is real for a lot of people.

So true and often overlooked. It really is a fascinating phenomenon, and I sometimes feel similarly in ways. A multiple-night run will have that effect on me -- where once it's said and done, there is a sensation that you are leaving behind an alternate version of yourself when readjusting to the daily grind.

Regarding ICP, it is indeed important to recognize concerns like these for what they are -- misunderstandings or prejudices. When the assumption you're trying to interpret relates to violence, however, it's just a tougher pill to swallow (as opposed to, for example, drug use, personal beliefs, values etc.).

All the more reason to satisfy my curiosity by learning more about it. It looks like I'll have to swing by my bookstore this week and grab a copy of the book. Thanks for sharing the interview!
