Enjoy the second half of my conversation with Boston blues artist Danielle Miraglia! Remember how you "followed" artists in decades past? You'll enjoy the nostalgia we touch on in this episode. Picking up on "Snow Globe," the opening song from Danielle's debut record Nothing Romantic, we talk about why it remain such a powerful track all these years later. What's your snow globe in 2025?

We also brush up on Danielle's direct & scathing 2024 single "The Ones Who Made Him," which in no uncertain terms calls out the various voices and media outlets that gave life and fuel to a certain public figure. She also paints a grim future for a culture of attention-seekers:

"He thrives on your outrage, and you always take the bait"

Download this song wherever you listen to music!

While Danielle is known for her unique picking style, stomp-box rhythm and vocals, you might be surprised to learn about her "alternate" instrument!

My discussion with Jimmy wraps up on this episode, which is his 5th or 6th appearance on the show (whenever I have some time, I will provide a proper count)!

Sammy Sosa. Rickey Henderson. Modest Mouse. What hurts when you wake up in the morning. These are just SOME of the mind-bending topics we cover before a rather rude end to the call.

Be sure to subscribe to Dan Time wherever you listen to podcasts! Whether you leave a comment or just a five-star rating, I appreciate YOU as a listener. (Special prize goes to the listener who leaves a 1-star rating with an entirely justifiable, perhaps even rambling comment).

New episodes every week! You can also follow my semi-regular activity on the socials (@dantimepod). If I'm not on your usual platform, go to another one and I'm probably over there.

Guess who's back?? To kick off 2025, why not turn to the man who made the initial launch of Dan Time possible — Mr. Jim Powell! If you like nonsense, you came to the right place. Stay tuned as the conversation wraps up later this week.

Thanks for adding a star rating for the show!

Where does the Dan Time go?? On this year-end recap, I take a minute to acknowledge some of the most exciting guests of 2024. I also take a minute to speak about what I've learned about amateur podcasting —and to beat back at some of the criticism you hear in the media.

If you "took the ride" through the Daniverse this year, you were treated to some prolific, fascinating — and most importantly, likable — guests! Personalities such as Dan Brodie, Dan Zlotnick, Dan Sharp, Dan Maines, Dan Beebe ... or Dana Wylie, Dana Perry, Dani Kerr, Daniela Galasso ... they all told a story worth hearing. Perhaps you also enjoyed getting a glimpse into my network, hearing from a McArdle brother or another old friend (Denny Lyons, John Hunter).

Dan Time has finally secured an AI Overview on Google! This is all made possible by you and your support.

I appreciate YOU as a listener! Happy New Year. Find out what's important to you in 2025 and run after it!
