  • Always enjoy listening to Danny’s podcast episodes!

    I feel like I always end these episodes with good nuggets of knowledge to put into my toolbox. Also, I just love how straightforward Danny is with his information and how relevant it is to the current information, or “misinformation”, that society is pushing out through social media. Danny is not just a good myth buster, but he has the research/knowledge to back it up.
