Daniel gives insightful, smart, and compassionate advice. He responds to letter writers with depth and intelligence and it’s a pleasure to listen to him guide folks as they grapple with some of life’s toughest challenges. Definitely worth a listen. Thank you, Danny!
So glad we get more

Danny as Prudence accompanied me through multiple cross-continental moves, a pregnancy, job changes, the loss of a loved one and so so much more. I’m forever grateful for his wisdom and ability to step back from the mess of life and see the things that really matter. Plus, his one-liners live rent-free in my head. Big Mood Little Mood is like Dear Prudence’s big brother: advice with a good dose of philosophical musings and obscure cultural references (that I’ll admit mostly go over my head). Thank you, and may Big Mood Little Mood just continue to get bigger and littler as the years go by.

I’m late to this particular party, and am working my way through the entire library. Love the eloquence and articulacy. I have yet to disagree in the slightest degree with the wise advice... many thanks.
Terrible advice

This podcast is full of bad advice. Listened to a couple episodes and cringed at how bad the advice was. Daniel assumes way too much when answering questions. There's no way he could know the things he assumes.
