    One Of The Newest Kill Tony Bucket Pulls (Feat. Greg The Blind Man) - EP 91

    This week Dani sits down with comedian Greg “The Blind Man” for a hilarious and inspiring conversation about comedy, resilience, and finding humor in life's toughest challenges. Greg shares how he got into stand-up comedy after losing his vision and how performing became an outlet that helped him work through depression and rebuild his confidence. What could have been a devastating chapter in his life became the foundation for a comedy career that's taken him to some incredible stages. The two dive into Greg's worst gigs, the lessons he's learned from bombing on stage, and what it was like performing on Kill Tony at the Crypto Arena. Greg talks about the impact the appearance had on his career, how audiences react to his material, and the occasional perks of being able to use the "blind excuse" to get out of awkward situations. They also discuss the Royal Roast Rumble, Greg's walkout song, the unique prizes and giveaways involved, and how his wife reacts when she becomes part of his comedy material. The episode also explores performing for a blind audience, navigating comedy as a visually impaired performer, and the different ways audiences connect with his story. As always, the conversation wraps up with an unforgettable dammit moment as Greg shares one of the most embarrassing experiences of his life involving a trip to Las Vegas with his wife.

    This week Dani sits down with Em Mya; artist, content creator, influencer, and all-around chaos enthusiast for an episode that somehow manages to cover WikiFeet rankings, turtle smuggling, beauty products, astrology, and music all in one sitting. Ren the dog makes a special guest appearance. Dani reveals that someone created a WikiFeet page for her... and it's apparently doing surprisingly well. The two debate the merits of Crocs, discuss the struggles of getting car repairs as a woman, and laugh about Dani's ongoing inability to separate her work life from her podcast life. The conversation spirals into discussions about shaving your head, naturally curly hair, retiring to a Florida retirement community, and why neither of them feel qualified to pull off thong bikinis. They swap stories about waterpark wardrobe malfunctions, declare hermit crabs one of the biggest pet scams in existence, and share the beauty products they couldn't live without. Along the way, Em convinces Dani she should start creating ASMR content featuring Ren, while the two compare the challenges of filming versus editing content. Eventually, the conversation finds its way back to Em's music career. She shares stories about singing Britney Spears at four years old, moving to Los Angeles, and building a career as an artist. The pair also dive into astrology, their shared appreciation for Waymo rides, and even discuss the mysterious bird milk cake. The episode wraps up with one of Em's unforgettable Vegas dammit moments, putting the perfect cap on a wildly entertaining conversation.

    A Major Spiritual Shift? 2026, The Year of the Fire Horse (Feat. Laura Powers) - EP 89

    This week Dani sits down with Laura Powers, who she first met on a red carpet and quickly discovered is one of the most unique guests to ever join the podcast. Laura is a celebrity psychic, medium, host, model, actress, singer, and adventurer, and this conversation takes a fascinating dive into spirituality, intuition, and the unseen world around us. The two discuss astrology, energy, and why Laura believes we’re living through a period of rapid transformation and change. Laura shares what it was like growing up seeing spirits, comparing her experiences to the kid from The Sixth Sense, and explains how being a psychic medium means constantly managing energy that most people never notice. She talks about Mexico City being a hotspot for paranormal activity, why channeling can be emotionally draining, and the importance of setting boundaries as a medium. The conversation also explores her belief that everyone has some level of clairvoyance, though some people naturally access it more easily than others. Along the way, Laura discusses appearing on BuzzFeed, Vice, and The Ron Burgundy Podcast, and how her work as a medium has connected her with celebrities from all walks of life. Beyond the spiritual side, Laura dives into her background in acting and politics, the fun of playing villainous characters, and her frustration with being typecast as the serious one. The conversation even ventures into past lives and the idea that who you are today may be shaped by lessons your soul is meant to learn in this lifetime. And because no Dammit Danii episode is complete without some chaos, the pair wrap things up with unforgettable dammit moments involving rings stuck on fingers, gagging on fingernails, and accidentally stabbing a sibling with a pencil. *** BUY SOME DAMMIT DANII MERCH AT https://dammitdaniipod.com/ *** Follow Laura at the links below: https://www.instagram.com/laurapowers44/ www.laurapowers.netFollow The Dammit Danii Podcast at the links below:YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/@dammitdaniipodcastFacebook:https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100071735092593Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/dammitdaniipod/Other Podcasting Platforms:https://creators.spotify.com/pod/profile/dammitdaniipodcast/https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-dammit-danii-podcast/id1583450151Intro and Outro Music by Allan Chan, lead vocalist and guitarist of Anathemma.https://www.instagram.com/anathemma0816/Podcast Art by:https://www.instagram.com/wray_mccann/Podcast Produced by Larry Lane and Lane Media.https://www.instagram.com/larrydlane/https://www.instagram.com/lanemediapgh/#DammitDanii #LauraPowers #PsychicMedium #CelebrityPsychic #Astrology #Spirituality #Clairvoyance #Paranormal #GhostStories #EnergyHealing #PastLives #HealingPowersPodcast #PodcastClips #SpiritualJourney #Intuition #ActingLife #EntertainmentPodcast #Mystery #PersonalGrowth #DammitMoments
