The pyres from the dead light up the night sky.  It's medieval.  Today's episode is a deep foray into unanswered questions, unenforced laws, and undeniable truths.  Ok.  So really it's just 30 minutes of the usually idiocy.  We begin by following up from yesterday's show by discussing a recent question posed by Danny to city councilor Sharla Gardner.  There is a backlash, and we share that with you as well.  This is followed by a brief Danny's Weekend Recap segment where Danny comes clean and admits to breaking Bentleyville law.  This leads to a story about another city councilor and his perfectly reasonable exception to being put on Santa's Naughty list.  The episode ends with yet another review of the LeAnn Wallace/Lutefisk clip.  Enjoy!

We're back, everyone!  Lots of fun and frivolity on today's episode, you loyal fans.  It all begins with Danny explaining to Ashley his new obsession with journeyman character actor Powers Boothe.  Danny is quickly becoming addicted to doing a really bad impression of Boothe from some of his various roles.  Next up, City Councilor Sharla Gardner is back at it.  She recently wrote a letter to the DNT and our hosts are here to analyze and over-analyze the contents of it.  Ashley almost has a seizure from how annoyed she gets at this letter.  And finally, we play the famous LeAnn Wallace/Lutefisk clip again and break it down even more than the last time.  Enjoy!

Happy Friday everyone!  So, how about the updates to the website, huh?  Pretty hi-tech, no?  Yeah, we know.  It still looks kind of crummy.  Just deal with it, OK?  Besides, what do you have to be upset about?  There's snow on the ground, Christmas is right around the corner, and you get an all new episode of Danny Does Duluth today.  On this show, our host lists off movies that he absolutely must watch if he runs into them while channel flipping.  This is followed by an introduction of a new segment called "Random Lew".  Alright.  Maybe it isn't new.  We just can't remember if we've done it before.  There is a brief conversation about changes coming to a local eatery.  But the big news on today's show is some in-depth analysis of LeAnn Wallace at a lutefisk dinner.  Trust us.  This episode is not to be missed.  Enjoy!

A very, very, very short episode today.  Danny is pretty distracted, and it shows unfortunately.  Maybe last week's epic parade episodes took too much out of him.  Or, maybe he's just a lazy turd.  Regardless, you listeners are about to be subjected to a shorty today.

Wait!  Did you say you wanted some Ronald goodness?  Alrighty then.  A brief conversation with DDD's official mascot ends up being...well...pretty hilarious.  Enjoy!

What a crazy kick-off to the holiday season!  Lots of stuff to talk about on today's show, even though Danny doesn't really feel like talking about any of it.  He trudges through anyway just for you lucky listeners.  Plus, he and Ashley manage to mention a couple of local stories of interest.  On today's episode:

-Danny calls Ralph Doty a whore

-Something seems a little "hinky" with the a local story making national news

-Smelly turkey

-Danny and the wife are obnoxious to the mayor at a local bar

Enjoy!

Happy Thanksgiving Week Everyone!  It's that time of the year again.  Friday night we were all treated to the 51st edition of the Northland's own Christmas City of the North Parade.  Were you there in person to experience the wonderful event?  Were you watching at home on the TV box?  Were you possibly watching on your computer via...um...streamline?  Well, if you answered "no" to all of those questions you have no reason to despair today.  Danny spent way too much time this past weekend isolating the greatest clips from the parade and once again they are presented here in this two part special.  You will hear clips with titles such as "Barbara screws up the name of the parade", "George the downer parts 1 through 5", and "Michelle thinks she smells butane".  Are you excited yet?  Of course you are.  Well, get to downloading, loyal listeners!  And enjoy your holiday!

Is everyone excited about the Christmas City of the North Parade?  Is everyone excited about the DDD coverage of the great event?  Well, Danny has discovered a problem with the NNC coverage.  He talks about it on today's show.  This is followed by a certain story about a certain candidate running for a certain office.  We then get the pleasure of an all new Northland feel-good story.  It all wraps up with another edition of Northland Lifestyles with Subdouche.  Enjoy today's short episode, everyone!

Happy Hump-Day Everyone!  Danny and Ashley (the dynamic duo of the local podosphere) start the show by continuing their hard sell of next week's show(s)...The 2nd Annual Danny Does Duluth Christmas City Of The North Parade Northland NewsCenter Coverage Special Parts 1 and 2.  Seriously folks, it's going to be fun.  Click the little archive thingy on the side and listen to last years episodes (from November 2008) to get an idea of the fun that will be had.  After that, we get a brand new edition of the segment that's sweeping this city...Northland Lifestyles with Subdouche.  What is today's topic?  You'll just have to listen to find out, silly.  Finally, Danny talks politics.  Sorry.  He had to do it.  The discussion is about a potential race between State Representative Tom Huntley against...ahem...Carinda Horton.  As a voter who usually votes against people, this poses a real problem for our host.  Danny and Ashley discuss a potential solution.

Enjoy!

Welcome to a brand new week!  Alright, so it's Tuesday.  Big hairy deal.  The new week of Danny Does Duluth goodness starts today.  On today's rip-roaringly fun episode:

-Danny's Weekend Recap: The Aquarium

-Good Going Duluth Fire Department Union

-Nerdy Thanksgiving plans/Christmas City of the North Parade

-Northland Lifestyles with Subdouche!

Enjoy!

Today, on a very special Danny Does Duluth...

Today is Friday the 13th.  Unfortunately, the superstitions associated with this date have come true today.  We here at DDD are incredibly unlucky to report a story that is overflowing with controversy.

But first, Danny goes to some burger joint and hangs around with Craig.  Sounds exciting, no?  Well, Danny gives us all a run-down on today's show.  Included is Craig's attempt to call the "old man with a ponytail".

But more importantly we discuss an ugly, horrendous incident at a recent UMD men's hockey game.  We're sure you've read all about it in the Duluth News Tribune, but where else than here on DDD can you get hard-hitting analysis from a big, Polish D-Bag and his fake co-host?  Nowhere, that's where.

Enjoy!

Who's everyone's favorite local podcast superstar?  Danny, that's who.  Today's episode is one of those classics where we don't really discuss anything but the show itself.  Yup.  It's a show about nothing.  Danny and Ashley review Danny's tubbiness.  Danny and Ashley review recent comments on the DDD website.  Danny and Ashley review...well, nothing else.  But we do also have an interview with John Rathe from duluthpolitics.blogspot.com today.  Enjoy the episode, folks.

It's the final chapter in our three-part series covering the local elections.  The results are in.  We know what we have to look forward to on our city council.  But how were Danny's predictions?  The host (with Ashley) has a lot to say today regarding yesterday's events.  Including:

-Why Hall really lost

-Local talk radio's epic failures

-Another phony local online wonk totally ripping off Danny's analysis

-Danny's "C"lose Encounter at "C"armody's last night

A very, very interesting post-election show for your listening pleasure.  Enjoy!

DANNY ENDORSES BETH OLSON!

DANNY ENDORSES BETH OLSON!

Yes, you read that correctly.  It is election day here in Duluth and our favorite fake radio show host has already cast his ballot.  While he refuses to tell Ashley who he voted for, he does shock the world by encouraging his listeners to choose Beth Olson when they head to their polling places today.  Why would he do this?  What is the motivation?  You'll just have to listen to find out.  Not only that, but Danny reiterates his predictions on today's council races along with throwing out some more crazy theories about Becky Hall, Beth Olson supporters, and more.

But that's not all.  Looks like the Northland NewsCenter is feeling some heat over an upcoming interview.  DDD has the story along with out patented analysis.

Enjoy today's episode!

Tomorrow is election day here in the Duluth.  There are many races for city council and for school board that will all be determined by Duluthians filling in little ovals with ball-point pens.  Today's DDD marks the first of a three part series where we'll discuss the various races and the results.  On this show Danny reads the full version of his "Reader's View" letter which appeared in yesterday's edition of the DNT.  Also, Ashley forces Danny to give some predictions on the At-Large race.  The pair also manage to throw in a few digs at the moronic duo of Subdouche and "C" (who seem to now somehow think that Danny is the mastermind behind the Duluth Citizens Blog).

Enjoy!

This is Halloween!  This is Halloween!  BOOOO!  Welcome ghostly listeners to the most ghastly fake radio show in the twin ports!  On today's horrifying edition of the show we celebrate the most haunted weekend of the year...Halloween weekend!

So, what really happens when you eat pork tainted with the H1N1 virus?  And what would happen if the host of an insanely popular podcast becomes possessed by the ungodly spirit of a local news anchor's evil twin brother?  And are there any other local anchors with with the skills to perform an exorcism?  All of these twisted, wicked questions are answered on today's spooky episode of Danny Does Duluth!  Enjoy!

The "I, Me, My" Game has been something that Danny and Ashley have been wanting to incorporate into DDD since the show's inception.  Recently, the opinion section of the DNT has assisted in that endeavor by printing a letter from a local member of the teacher community.  This piece is ripe for the pickings for this game.  However, Danny has decided to raise the stakes a bit and bring in a very special recurring guest to read the letter and play along with the "I, Me, My" Game.  We at Danny Does Duluth welcome back the great Tom Shad for this all new episode!  Enjoy!

Hey listeners!  Did you know that we had our very own self-help guru right here in lovely Duluth?  No?  Well, neither did we.  At least not until last week when the Tribune started inundating with tales of harassment claims against Rod Raymond.  So who is Rod Raymond exactly?  Well, on today's episode Danny and Ashley attempt to answer that very question and partake in researching the northland's own version of Frank T.J. Mackey.  He has hugged hundreds of people, he has a mentor, and wants you all to be a grizzly.  He is Rod the Bod and is the subject of today's all new episode of Danny Does Duluth!  Enjoy!

Also...be sure to check out this charity in your spare time.  We at DDD feel that it is worthy: gitrdonefoundation.org

If there is ever a Podcaster Hall of Fame, this should be the episode chosen to be featured in the Danny Does Duluth wing.  What do you think?  Perhaps too much of a build up?  Why don't you just download the episode and judge for yourself?  Today's all new show features not one, not two, but THREE huge topics of discussion.  On today's episode:

-Larry Sinclair: The Update

-LeAnn Wallace: Hard Hitting Journalist

-Wait...WHO got a DUI while driving a La-Z-Boy Recliner?

Trust us, you do NOT want to miss this episode!

There's just too much going on lately for us to cover all of it.  Of course, we here at DDD have somewhat odd standards sometimes.  Today is not one of those times.

The race for the 2nd district City Council seat seems to be really heating up.  Many questions have been left unanswered.  Danny has decided to take today's show to offer another appearance for candidate for that seat, Robert Wagner.  Today, Wagner answers a number of questions including his thoughts on the DNT's endorsement of his opponent, Boyle's no-show at the DNT's own candidate forum, accusations against Wagner about his true intentions in this race, and the fire department.  It's a good conversation.

Ashley and Danny also read and provide their patented in-depth analysis of the actual DNT endorsement of Doyle that is in-question.  Good show today, folks.  Enjoy!

Have you ever heard of this guy Larry Sinclair?  No?  Well, neither had Danny.  At least not until very, very recently...yesterday, in fact.  In keeping with the tradition of Duluth being behind on absolutely everything, Danny covers the story of Larry Sinclair on today's episode of the show.  You see, back in the summer of 2008, Sinclair made some rather damning accusations against our current prez, Barry Obama.  He even held a pseudo-press conference to reveal those accusations.  But there's more.  There's also a DULUTH CONNECTION!!!  Download and enjoy this highly entertaining episode!

Welcome faithful listeners!  And welcome new listeners!  Hell...welcome everyone!  We're back today with an all new episode of the Northland's favorite, and most-listened to podcast, Danny Does Duluth.  The show begins with Danny recounting this past weekend's outing between himself and his lovely wife as they celebrate 11 years of marriage...and 11 years of Danny being a total moron.  This is reflected by something idiotic that Danny does at the happy couple's anniversary dinner.  After this intriguing story, Ashley and Danny take a listen to a short sound-clip from the Northland NewsCenter's Kevin Jacobson.  In the audio file Jacobson flubs his lines a bit.  Sounds like no big deal, right?  Wrong!  Ashley and Danny manage to spend over 10 minutes analyzing the error and providing theories as to what exactly went wrong.  Intriguing, no?  Anyway...enjoy!

Danny's back with an all new episode of Duluth's #1 podcast!  Today's show is chalk-full of goodness!  Was the wait worth it? Probably not.  but who cares?  It's a new show!  Today, Danny and Ashley discuss:

-Metallica

-Job opening at Midwest Communications

-Jeff Edmundson's "joke"

This and much, much more on today's all new episode!  Enjoy!

Da da-da da da da da da.  That was olympics theme?  Nice, huh?  We're back today with an all-new action-packed episode of the Northland's most-listened to podcast, DDD.  And on this show we have not just one...but TWO fantabulous "guests" for your listening enjoyment.  First up, straight direct from Copenhagen we have the one and only President Barry in an in-depth interview.  How could that possibly be followed up?  Well, how about a visit from Subdouche who has some big, big news about the current goings-on with his army of blogs.  Big show today folks.  Enjoy!

Welcome back everyone!  Danny and Ashley are back to normal today with another rip-roaring episode of the Northland's most listened-to podcast.  On today's show, Danny explains to Ashley where his wife is which leads to a discussion of flying and cheap souvenirs.  The duo then dive into the At-Large City Council race and some of the controversy surrounding one of the candidates.  Also discussed is some deep, well-researched analysis from a local blogger who is covering the race.  All this and more, on today's Danny Does Duluth!

NOTE: Don't forget to check out duluthcitizen.org

Enjoy!

In the mood for a little nostalgia?  On this landmark episode of Danny Does Duluth we take a trip back in time.  Back to when this little internet radio podcaster show started.  We're talking waaaaaay back to the origin of Danny's original podcast, the Wonderful World Of Danny!  Download and enjoy the very first "lost" episode of WWOD and hear Danny stutter, refer to his poorly written notes, struggling with the microphone, and auditioning potential co-hosts Oblivion, Randy, and finally...Ashley.  Enjoy!

New, fresh DDD's next week!

Hey kids!  It's Time To Meet Your Local Newscasters!  Yup.  Danny's going back to that old well again.  But don't fret.  The segment now has it's own original theme song!  Previously Danny and Ashley dived into the worlds of the NNC's Julie Pearce and WDIO(TV Duluth, WIRT Hibbing)'s Dennis Anderson.  Today the duo are giving the area's own Don Draper the honor as they read 25 fun facts about FOX-21's Nick LaFave.  Ashley has some theories about FOX's lead anchor and this segment sort of lends some evidence to those theories.  Our hosts also take a gander as some A-1 reporting with Nick LaFave: Hard-Hitting Journalist.  Enjoy!

Just a small show today. A couple of topics are covered.  First...Ashley berates Danny for something he said on yesterday's show (after reading something on the DNT's website today).  Then the duo dive into the strange, secret society that seems to be the Duluth DFL and their odd support/connections for particular candidates today (it is primary day, by the way).  Enjoy!

An all new (short) episode for your lucky listening ears!  Rock on!  Danny and Ashley cover a few topics on today's show:

-Subdouche...what?

-Kevin Jacobson is a fan of Kevin Jacobson

-The Greatest Rejection Ever!

Enjoy!

Danny's back!  Everybody hide!  We're trying to get back on track with regular shows and kicking it off today with this all new, regular (although pretty long) episode.  And what better way to launch our big return than trying to figure out what in the hell is going on over on Subdouche's army of blogs?  He's got either 2 or 3 new contributors and Danny and Ashley attempt to figure out what the story really is behind them.  That and more on today's episode!  Enjoy!

-Shout outs for Zinema 2 and Tracy Lundeen

-Cracking the code of Subdouche's army of blogs

-A new local feel-good story

-8 years ago

-The Glensheen Rap

Poet.  Musician.  Composer.  Connoiseur of all things fecal.  The great Tom Shad makes his triumphant return to Danny's podcast today by filling in for the still-absent Danny.  Tom Shad reveals to Ashley that he is now a proud Duluthian and is fitting in nicely to the local hipster/scenester/Perfectoid community.  He talks about his part in opening an indie movie theatre in the Northland and also provides some insight and some ideas on what should be done to commemorate the three local civil rights freedom fighters who are being discriminated against due to riding their bikes in the streets.  Plus, Tom shares his personal recipe for a Poop Cocktail.  Confused yet?  Just download the episode and enjoy, won't you?

He's Tom, and his life sways like reeds in the wind.

Hey there!  Look who's doing a new show today!  It's Danny!  How good of him to grace us with his talents, no?  Anyway, brand new episode today with lots to cover.  Get your fill while you can, though.  We're going to be honest here.  This is almost 100% going to be the only episode this week.  The host has "plans".  So there you go.  Anycrap, on today's show:

-"Who's that dork sniffing the used action figures?"

-More proof that Julie Pearce rules

-Subdouche...he's back!

-Brad Bennett's ward stops by to counter Ralph Doty's latest column

Enjoy!

He's here!  He's really here!  After eons of speculation, we've got him!  He's all ours!  No no no.  Not Brett Favre, silly.  We are of course talking about the replacement for former Northland NewsCenter personality Shannon Murphy.  Jeff Edmondson is his name and doing the weather is his game.  But the real question is this: Does this new guy offer anything to Danny and Ashley that they can work with?  Well, you're just going to have to listen to today's episode to find out.  Plus, Danny gets political (and doesn't know what he's talking about) and discusses the Vikings newest player (and again doesn't know what he's talking about).  Sit back, relax, and enjoy today's all new DDD!

It's too hot today.  In fact, it's too hot to put any work into an episode.  So, instead of discussing local issues Danny lazily lets Ashley ramble on about fruit.  It makes sense to her, trust us.  Then, we get an all new Craig's Corner!  Enjoy today's show and stay cool!

Every once in a while a controversy hits the area.  Ok.  Probably a bit more then every once in a while.  Regardless, sometimes a controversy comes around and people naturally take sides.  However, sometimes the people battling out on both sides of that issue manage to all get it completely wrong.  Well, now is one of those times.  And lucky for all of you we've got Danny here to explain to us all how everyone else in Duluth is wrong and he is right.  Fun, huh?  Today's entire episode is a chronicle of the controversy involving a t-shirt with the allegedly racist phrase "My Drinking Name Is Drinks Like Fish" sold at a local merchant.  Danny (and in some small part, Ashley) explains the true meaning of the shirt's message while also questioning the timing of the story.  Sit back and prepare to be berated.  Enjoy!

And don't forget to go to the official DDD online store and purchase our new t-shirt:
http://www.cafepress.com/dannydoesduluth

Looky here!  An actual local show talking about actual local news stories and issues!  It's sort of a rarity around here, is it not?  Anywho, on today's episode Danny and Ashley discuss three local stories that have been making the round: Firefighters can't raise money for the MDA unless they are getting paid for it, apparently.  Mayor Don Donny Ness doesn't takes a hard stand against illegal guns.  And finally...socially incorrect t-shirts.  Enjoy today's show!

Hi everyone!  We're back!  Danny decides to return and give all you lovely listeners in inside look into the goings-on of his recent activities.  Ok.  So it's just a weekend re-cap show.  Big hairy deal.  But where else can you hear about your favorite local podcast host possibly getting his picture taken with a complete stranger at a wrestling event.  Intrigued, aren't you?  Sit back and listen to get all the gory details...AND MORE!  Enjoy.

Guess who has not been on the show in a while?  WDIO's Dennis Anderson!  Guess who's on this episode of the show?  Seriously?  You can't guess.  Come on.  I just gave you the most obvious hint possible.  What is wrong with you?  Anyway, we have a visit from our old pal on today's episode, along with more crap to tingle your listening ears.  Um...opposed to your non-listening ears I guess.  Fwew.  Looks like the official DDD episode description writer is rambling a bit.  Oh well.  On today's show:

-Some love for Rodney

-DDD?

-PDD'ers...Danny hereby dubs thee...

-Dennis Anderson stops by to introduce his plan for saving the economy.

Enjoy!

Lot's of stuff to talk about on today's episode.  Danny has a new something that he just can't let go.  It's his new ipod!  Take your mind out of the gutter!  Anyway, Danny runs down the various apps he's downloaded.  Then it's time for a rehash of the Chuck Horton rally/protest and a description of all the things that you did NOT hear on the last episode of DDD.  Exciting, huh?  After hearing this episode it will be almost like you were there.  Anyway...enjoy.

Say!  Do you want to hear the first ever on-location episode of Danny Does Duluth?  Well you are in luck, loyal listeners!  Today was the big day.  Today Chuck Horton held his loooooooong awaited protest/rally/whatever-it-is-currently down on the steps of Duluth's City Hall.  Because of this important event, your spunky host Danny had decided that it was time to take the show on the road to cover it.  And guess what?  Craig came along for the ride (he is the official producer of DDD, after all).  So sit back, relax, and enjoy 45 minutes of dorky jokes about local notables.  And if this traditional audio isn't enough for you, scroll on down and watch the official DDD Youtube video of the day's activities.  Enjoy!

Lots of stuff on today's show.  Oh.  By the way.  Sorry the episode is so tardy.  He he.  Tardy.  Anywho, we make up for the lateness with quantity.  In fact, probably too much quantity.  On today's episode:

-Official DDD endorsement: The Pickwick!

-Duluth's current murder rate vs. Murderapolis's current murder rate

-New Craig's Corner!

-The NNC girls and vegetables...HOT!

-Is the Horton thing a protest, a rally, or what?

Enjoy!

On today's Lew Latto Live, the host welcomed a very special guest.  It took a while for Danny to figure out who this guest actually was.  But, when he finally realized that it was veteran Northland broadcaster Lew Martin, Danny knew he had to start recording.  You see, Danny is in a torturing mood today.  What better way to capitalize on those feelings than to make Ashley and you the listeners listen to some HOT LEW ON LEW ACTION!  That's right, folks.  This erotic episode of Duluth's number one podcast features actual, steamy sound clips of Lew Latto and Lew Martin babbling on incoherently to each other!  Men...you probably can't stand up right now.  Ladies...you probably need to change you slacks.  You're welcome.  Enjoy the sexiness that is today's show!

Looks like we're doing today's show a bit early!  Lucky for all of you listeners, huh?  On today's episode we take a look at a recent piece by local "B-Team" newspaper columnist Ralph Doty.  The article causes Danny and Ashley to continue to ask the question: "Does Ralph Doty hate free speech?".  Listen for yourself and you can be the judge.  Enjoy.

Welcome to the start of another summer week here at Danny Does Duluth.  On today's show Danny starts things off with a very, very brief weekend recap.  Then he and Ashley read the follow-up to the infamous ball-slasher story.  Danny comes up with a solution to the problem, but things quickly go downhill as the podcasting pair realize that Duluthians are just not funny.  It's sad really.  Enjoy!

 What in the hell is going on in this crazy town?  Why is it starting to seem that things are happening for the soul purpose of providing material for Danny Does Duluth?  Oh well.  Danny just could not take being away from his "life-partner" Ashley anymore.  So, he brought her back on for tonight's episode despite the week-long ban that he imposed on Monday's birthday show.  That, and so much more on this episode.  On today's show:

-Duluth's 2nd murder of the ye...WEEK!

-Let's play Count the Balls with Trevor Roy and Michelle Lee!

-Honking Tree...The Song

-The Honking Tree himself returns to the show

Enjoy!

Rather than using this space to offer a typical description of tonight's episode, we at DDD would like to take this opportunity to thank someone.  Mark Stodghill at the Duluth News Tribune, we here at Danny Does Duluth thank you for your reporting on quite possibly the most-disturbing local criminal of all time.  You deserve a Pulitzer Prize, my friend.  Thank you for your service to our community.  You sir, are a great Duluthian.  Thank you.  Thank you.  Thank you.

Another Ashley-free episode!  Today you get to hear Danny flying solo and babbling on incoherently about...neighborhoods.  Two particular neighborhoods are indeed profiled on today's show: Central Hillside and Morgan Park.  Inspired by a couple of pieces in the latest DNT, Danny breaks down the local areas, the articles themselves, and of course...the comments.  Sit back, relax, and enjoy!

And away we go!  The first of a few episodes of DDD sans-Ashley is here!  Sunday marked the first murder of the year here in Duluth.  But it seems like the local online community does not want to talk about the actual crime.  No no no.  Instead they all feel the need to complain about the various forms of online coverage and online comments about the horrible incident.  Well, when in Rome...Danny decides to take this opportunity to complain about the complainer's complaining and even throws in a quickie lesson on the truth about "Freedom of Speech".  Enjoy!

Hearing about a murder first thing in the morning!  An incorrect birthday cake!  A visit from Kip Jacobson!  An erotic dance from an exotic stripper named C-Breeze!  And a "freebie" from Dennis Anderson!  What more could any birthday boy ever want?  Enjoy this year's "Danny's Birthday" episode of Danny Does Duluth!  Be kind.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.  I know.  The show's a day late.  Get over it, won't you?  Stuff comes up sometimes and it makes me a little late.  Alright?  We cool now?  Good.  We have a fun little show this weekend for y'all.  Oh...and be sure to listen all the way through to this one. Included:

-Lew Latto makes a ridiculous declaration

-Trying to get a hold of Ronald

-Getting a hold of Ronald

-New Craig's Corner

Enjoy!

It's been a while since we've played clips from local radio.  Today seems like as good a day as any to dive back in to the practice.  Sit back, relax, and enjoy some of the soothing sounds of The Patriot's premier local talk show.  Enjoy!

Damn.  There ain't nothin' goin' on in this damn town!  Well, we wanted to throw a show together anyway.  So, instead of relaying the day's events (since there really are none) Danny and Ashley have decided to jump into the official DDD Time Machine and read a blast from the past.  This is a story that comes from our neighbors across the bridge from a few years back and it's a definate classic.  If you are from the area, you are well aware of this story and will probably be bored with this episode.  If not, well..you're welcome.  Enjoy!

Is there anything better to get someone back on track than some good old-fashioned angry bitterness?  We're back in the saddle, folks.  Everyone's favorite Duluth podcast is ready to rock and roll!  Today you get a longish episode as a way to try and make up for the lack of eps lately.  It's not the episode we planned on doing today, but it's new anyway.  On today's show:

-Reunited

-Where's Chuck Horton?

-A visit from Kip Jacobson

-The skunk story

Enjoy!

Hey!  Where's everyone been?  He he.   Yeah, so some explanation is probably in order, huh?  On today's fun little episode Danny whines a bit.  Plus, he shaved!  OK.  So those two things alone are probably not worth the wait, huh?  Well...how about this.  HUFFING!  Alright.  Just download and enjoy.  All of your questions might be answered.  Enjoy!

We're back with a regular (yet short) episode of Danny Does Duluth!  Did you miss the Best of WWOD episode yesterday?  Well...too bad for you.  As for today's new show, Danny is extremely tired after going to a midnight movie with hundreds of people he is way, way too old to be around.  But that's not all.  Everyone's favorite NNC correspondent "reports" on some sort of Ojibway language seminar...or something.  We're not really sure.  It's hard to tell from the shoddy report.  Enjoy.

Everyone have a nice Father's Day weekend?  Well, time to start a new, fresh week with a new, fresh episode of Danny Does Duluth.  We get a weekend recap where Danny recounts his big, rustic camping adventure and the severe lack of wood.  Exciting, no?  Enjoy.

Do you like it nice and big?  Your episodes of Danny Does Duluth, I mean.  Do you like your DDD episodes nice and big?  Well, I hope you answered "yes" to that question because using those two words is the perfect way to describe this particular episode.  We get a new Craig's Corner, a return of a favorite DDD "Guest", and exclusive coverage of the most important story to ever hit the Northland.  On this show:

-Puppy-Gate!

-What is Robin Washington anyway?

-Craig's got exactly 5 things to get off his chest.

-A visit from the lovely "C".

Enjoy!

Hi everyone!  Would you like to know what you have to look forward to on today's episode of the Northland's premier podcast?  Well, then read on my friends!  Ashley keeps bugging Danny about a possible new entry onto his dreaded "list".  Danny stonewalls her and moves on to talk about other things.  What other things?  Well, how about a rehash of jury pool incedent from 2007.  Exciting, huh?  Not good enough for you?  Keep listening and you'll hear some analysis of a few of the disturbing results from the city survey that everyone else has been talking about lately.  Enjoy!

OK!  OK!  WE'RE SORRY!  OK?  Danny has a perfectly good explanation as to why there was no new show last night.  But, you'll have to listen to today's show to hear all about it.  See.  That's how we get ya!  Also on today's show...Ashley offers her opinion on the latest Our Opinion.  Confused yet?  Well, how about we wrap things up by talking about a possible protest to try and oust a couple of city councilors?  Yeah, so.  The description is a little vague.  Just listen.  Enjoy!

Everyone else have a good weekend?  Good.  Nice to hear.  Well, Danny had a...weekend.  How would you like to hear all about it?  You would?  Fantastic!  You've come to the right place.  Listen to today's show as Danny recaps his exciting weekend for Ashley and you the lucky listeners.  Enjoy!

It certainly is an interesting day here around the Danny Does Duluth Studios.  Yes.  Interesting indeed.  For some odd reason Danny was not available to record his regular action-packed Friday episode of the Northland's favorite podcast.  So this caused Ashley to have to scramble to find a suitable replacement.  Instead of putting any work into the search, she just went with the first person available.  Namely, Kevin Jacobson's evil twin brother, Kip Jacobson.  On today's show:

-Laughing at DNT stories that should not be funny

-That arrow wasn't in my cat yesterday, was it?

-Horse love

-All nine inputs

Enjoy!

A fine little show.  A fine little show, indeed.  Today, Danny and Ashley pull back the curtain a bit for you faithful listeners.  You get to hear the anatomy of DDD's latest find, Kip Jacobson.  But that's not all.  You also get a brand spanking new LeAnn Wallace clip and Ashley determine's it's humorous merits.  Oh.  And Danny's feeling dizzy.  Enjoy!

Screw the Duluth News Tribune!  Screw the Budgeteer!  Screw WDIO!  Screw FOX 21 News!  Hell...Screw the Northland NewsCenter!  Nobody...NOBODY has the 'nads to report the scoop that we got here on today's episode of Danny Does Duluth!  NNC anchor Kevin Jacobson has a dark, dark secret...his evil twin brother Kip!  And we've got him on this here little podcast!  Be sure that you're sitting down for this!  It's the first ever interview with Kip Jacobson!  Enjoy!

Well, it looks like the current Sharla Gardner controversy is winding down and she won't be in any legal trouble for the situation.  It's good for her that she didnt do or say anything stupid during this whole process, huh?  On today's show we revisit the whole deal including our own take on it.  Included is how this very show was "wronged" by said city councilor, and an interesting bit of audio from the DNT's Brandon Stahl.  Don't worry, though.  There will be more of the normal fun and frivolity later in the week.  Enjoy!

BREAKING NEWS!  Danny Got A Hair Cut!!!

Ok...that's not nearly as exciting as everything else going on in the world, but it's something.  Right?  Today's show features another of Danny's Weekend Recaps.  He reviews his trip to St. Paul, Rochester, almost back to St. Paul, back to Rochester, and then back to St. Paul.  Confused yet?  Well, listen and it will all be clear.  Oh.  And Danny took something from a hospital.  Enjoy.

Why is it that the title of this episode sounds like the beginning of a Johnny Carson "Carnac" bit?  Oh well.  Today's show is definately an odd one.  We are starting the special summer schedule today meaning this is posted a little later than you faithful listeners are used to.  Get over it.  The quality has not been affected.  On today's episode:

-Craig's Corner: Craig interviews Afroman

-Beth Jett + Poop = Dream Come True

-Sharla Gardner finds more people to blame

Enjoy!

Danny starts today's show off by telling us about an interesting sign he noticed recently.  Then, it's all Sharla Gardner talk.  Looks like DDD's favorite city councilor has a bit of explaining to do after the DNT's Brandon Stahl did some investigative reporting work on the Sister Cities trip to Japan.  Danny and Ashley provide their own deep analysis.  Enjoy!

Welcome my friends, to the podcast that never ends.  On today's exciting show we bring you not one, but TWO brand new audio clips for your listening enjoyment.  First up you lucky listeners will be treated to a deep rememberance of the fabled Honking Tree from an MPR contributor.  How great is that?  But the fun doesn't end there.  You also get to hear the premier of the Duluth News Tribune's new online (and uncensored) news program, DNTV!  Enjoy! 

He, who then heck was that calling in to Lew Latto Live this morning?  It sure as heck sounded like a certain "producer" from a certain local podcast.  As promised, on today's episode we get Danny's extensive weekend recap.  Danny and Ashley touch on a vast range of topics including Choco Tacos, SFB's, tequila, 3D movies, the NBA, amps, and action figures.  Exciting, huh?  Join us and enjoy today's episode, won't you?

Today!  The first day of June in 2009!  This day marks the exciting, action-packed, innovative, energetic return of the Northland's premier radio talk show host, the old man with a pony-tail himself, Mr. Lew Latto!  On today's DDD we celebrate this momentous event by listening to clips of the big show and offering our in-deapth analysis!  Exciting!  Action-Packed!  Energetic!  Enjoy!

Hi, how are you.  Hi, how are you.  Hi, how are you.  It's Friday!  Is there a better way to kick off the weekend then listening to a fresh episode of Danny Does Duluth?  We don't think so.  And this is no ordinary, run of the mill episode of DDD either.  No no no.  Today you get to hear a brand new "guest" on the show.  Lucky you!  That and much, much more on today's episode.  On the show:

-The Mysterious Visitor from Oz

-Carinda Horton's Dump

-Danny Whines about Local Radio

-High Chief Nick Lafave (Runs With Beth Jett)

Enjoy!

Just a shorty today since very little seems to be happening around the Northland.  Our hosts enjoy reviewing the latest edition of the NNC's Shannon Murphey's My Green Life segment.  Today's subject: boring toys.  Enjoy!

Well, well, well.  Looks like Danny is on the road to becoming a very major media star.  He is prominently featured in a new ad which is sure to shoot him right to the top of the celebrity heap.  Lucky for all of us the stardom isn't going to his head.  Enjoy!

After a nice long weekend we're back!  On today's exciting episode we run through Danny's productive (and dry?) weekend.  Also, looks like City Councilor Tony Cuneo had a bit of a hard time paying property taxes.  Must be because of his "youth", huh?  Uhg.  Ashley and Danny provide their deep analysis.  Enjoy!

Do not adjust the audio on your ipod (or Zune, or however you are listening to this episode).  Danny is still not 100% over the mystery illness he has contracted.  Him and Ashley may sound like total crap on this episode, but they've decided to fight through it and produce a fresh episode for your listening enjoyment right before the holiday weekend!  On today's 150th episode:

-Trying to figure out where Danny got his sickness

-A local feel-good story

-The DNT's moronic "Our View"

-We're officially twittering!  www.twitter.com/DDDULUTH

-Danny creates his "list" and adds a certain city councilor as it's second entry

Enjoy!

Apparently it's the end of the world as we know it and Craig feels fine.  Danny is still fighting what could quite possibly be the Swine Flu so Craig is kind enough to step up to the mic and fill in for the day.  Today the sub talks about pretty much everything from Sharla "Sheila" Gardner to Armegeddon.  Sit back, relax, and enjoy.  Oh...and Danny will probably be back in the saddle tomorrow.

Sorry about this everyone.

Danny's weekend was filled with dorky cars, racism, a drunken wife, and bricks!  Now you lucky listeners are fortunate enough to hear all about it on today's episode of Danny Does Duluth!  Enjoy!

It's Friday!  Keeping with tradition you lucky listeners get an extended episode today.  But that's not really because Danny cares about his "art".  It's mostly because Craig's Corner is insanely long today.  Is this week's edition of CC worth it?  Danny sure as hell thinks so.  That and more on today's show:

-Danny just got an interesting email

-More proof that Duluth is behind on EVERYTHING

-Craig's Corner: Korn show musings

-An attempt an another interview with the Honking Tree

Enjoy!

Today Danny SHOULD be spending the entire show talking about himself being way, way too old to be in the mosh pit at last night's Korn concert at the DECC.  But instead he manages to find a way to deflect his joking onto a couple of local DJ's who were also at the show.  Enjoy.

Couple of issues are discussed on today's show.  First, Danny discusses the fate of the new bird.  Once that's out of the way there's a decidedly more interesting story that seems to be the talk of the town today.  That would be the charges of sexism and abusiveness towards councilor Todd Fedora from fellow councilor Sharla Gardner.  We at  DDD had more questions about this controversy so Ms. Gardner herself was invited to come on the show to discuss.  How does that invite turn out?  Download and find out.  Enjoy!

It's certainly turning into a very gay week of Danny Does Duluth.  On today's episode we take a look at last night's landmark decision by the city council to allow domestic partners to pay 25 bucks for a useless piece of paper.  We then check in with the local citizens to find out how tolerant they have become.  Enjoy!

It's Monday!  On today's fresh as a daisy episode we are treated to Danny's weekend re-cap.  FUN!  But that's not all, lucky listeners.  Did you say you wanted more Ronald?  Well, you get it today.  Good luck trying to figure out what he is talking about.  Enjoy.

Ok.  We realize that we declared that the Honking Tree would not be discussed on this show.  But what can we say?  We lied.  For the first time since the iconic symbol was mysteriously cut down, the Honking Tree itself speaks out right here on Danny Does Duluth.  All that and more on today's exciting episode.  On today's show:

-Danny saw Star Trek

-What if I'm still thirsty at 1:01am?

-Ronald's Corner?

-The Honking Tree Speaks!

Enjoy!

YES! YES! YES!  It's been WEEKS since Danny has had technical issues!  So, he's about due.  Anyway, we muddle through those problems and...amem..."crap" out a new episode of the show.  The subject today?  A little letter sent to the city council.  Enjoy.

NOW WORKING!!!

It's follow-up day on DDD!  In a continuation from yesterday's episode, we talk to the Duluth News Tribune's Brandon Stahl.  Danny and BS discuss the controversy surrounding yesterday's story about this past weekend's event at Carnival Thrillz for council candidate Robert Wagner.  Also discussed: 24, why there is no streaming of the council sessions, and a tree.  But trust us...There Will Be No Discussion Of The Honking Tree On This Show!  Enjoy.

Happy Cinco De Mayo, everyone!  Today we bring to you one doozy of a show.  We start things off with a little insight into the MWC situation and a certain "old man with a ponytail" that the rest of the local media and blogosphere has failed to notice.  Then, we here at DDD prove that we are on the cutting edge of the local media.  You most-likely have seen the controversial story in today's edition of the DNT regarding the fund-raising event for city council candidate Robert Wagner this past weekend.  Well, guess who just happens to have a conversation with Danny on today's episode?  Robert Wagner himself!  Enjoy.

DNT story:

Happy Monday!  Today's show is simply a recap of Danny's super-busy weekend.  It was a weekend filled with cage fights, clowns, and silly string.  But what did Ashley do this weekend?  You're just going to have to download to find out.  Enjoy!

Na na na na.  Na na na na.  Hey hey hey.  Good bye.  Oh, whomever could we be singing about there?  Surely the target of that little song couldn't be now OUTGOING Marketing Manager of Midwest Communications Ron Stone, could it?  That seems to be the "talk of the town" today, and here at DDD it is no exception.  But that's not all you lucky listers get!  On today's episode:

-Ron Stone, don't let the door hit you...oh you get it.

-Craig's Corner: Ron Stone and meeting Mayor Don Donny

-Wheel Of Wallace!

Enjoy!

If Friday is "T.G.I.F", then Thursday should be "So Happy It's Thursday"!  Just a thought.  Today's show starts with a little discussion about the Swine Flu, the circus, and AIDS.  Then our hosts run out of things to talk about.  So, Ashley lifts the ban and you lucky listeners are treated to Danny checking in on Subdouche's Army of Blogs.  Enjoy!

FINALLY!  Sex Trafficking in the Northland.  It's apparently a real problem.  The huge investigative report by Nick LaFave had been hyped to the moon from FOX 21 (and us here on DDD).  So on today's episode Danny and Ashley finally provide their deep analysis of the entire two-part story.  Plus, Ashley's thoughts on Arlen Specter and some Pink Floyd talk.  Enjoy.

THE JAIL IS SAVED!  We talk about that for a couple of minutes at the start of today's show.  But the real meat in this episode comes from an exploration into the mind of WDIO's main man, Dennis Anderson.  Danny and Ashley spend an unhealthy amount of time today going over every aspect of D.A.'s facebook profile.  Fun is had by all.  Enjoy.

Happy Monday, everyone!  We're getting back in the swing of things today with a number of mentions.  Ashley thinks she has the swine flu.  Danny recaps his weekend.  And Craig invites us into his corner.  That's right, kids!  New Craig's Corner today.  He tells us a little story about cops, kids, and guns that was not reported anywhere else.  Conspiracy?  You be the judge.  Enjoy.

Ahhh yes.  The unpredictability of Danny Does Duluth.  We had a huge lineup of items we were planning on doing on today's show.  We end up not doing any of those things.  Instead, you lucky listeners get to hear Danny piss and moan for about 15 minutes.  Lucky you!  Enjoy.

Not a bad little episode for a nice little Thursday.  On today's show Danny and Ashley attempt to figure out what in the hell Sharla Gardner is talking about.  Danny also reveals his contemplation of bringing DDD to PACTV.  But most importantly on today's show...SEX TRAFFICKING!!!  Download and enjoy.

Today is by far the most important holiday of the year.  For today we all celebrate EARTH DAY!  On this episode Danny and Ashley go green and discuss the ways that other northland media outlets are recognizing this holiest of days on their websites.  We also discuss the ways that Danny leads a green lifestyle in hopes that it will inspire you the listener to do the same.  So let us all celebrate Earth Day and save the planet together on this very important green episode of DDD.  Enjoy!

We managed to fit quite a bit of show into this short episode.  First, find out why Ashley is mad at Danny.  Apparently he forgot to celebrate something on yesterday's show.  After that is all out of the way, we get to enjoy a great conversation with Ronald.  It's been a while since he's been on the show, and after this we're starting to wonder why.  Ronald and Danny discuss a number of local issues including the proposed train to the Twin Cities, the UHAUL bandit, and most-extensively City Councilor Jeff Anderson's proposal to bring domestic partner registries to City Hall.  Ronald's opinions are absolutely brilliant.  Enjoy.

It's Monday!  Hurray!!!  On today's somewhat lengthy show we bring back the very popular, 100 % original stereotypical douchebag voice!  There has been some very deep, very intelligent analysis of Danny, Ashley, and the motivations of this show over on our pal Subdouche's Army of Blogs and we here spend the show sharing it with you.  This all leads to Ashley coming to a decision that may affect the shows for the next week or so.  Sit back.  Relax.  And enjoy.

Danny is incredibly busy today.  So busy that he doesn't have time to host the show.  On top of that, regular guest-host is also unavailable.  So, Ashley has decided to volunteer to step up to the mic and take over for the day.  What a saint.  Enjoy!

As promised Danny attended yesterday's Duluth Tea Party and is spending today giving a breakdown of the event.  There seems to be a bit of a battle going on in the local media about the actual number of people who attended and Danny has his own independent take on that.  Also, we get more wack-job goodness from C and Subdouche.  Sort of a longer episode today, so be sure to set aside a good 20 minutes to sit back, relax, and enjoy the whole thing.

For more Tea Party information, go to:

duluthteaparty.com

 

Quite the little show today.  Why would Danny read a column from the Transistor?  Why is The Patriot apparently getting ideas from Danny Does Duluth?  And what does C have to say about today's Tea Party?  All of these questions and more will be answered on today's Tax Day edition of everyone's favorite Duluth-based podcast.  Download now and enjoy!

What would we do without Subdouche?  Well, we would probably live our lives the exact same way we do now, actually.  Regardless, the big guy seems to be back to his anti-Danny ways on his various cute little blogs.  On today's show we examine some of the rantings of our favorite troll-hunter and even attempt to try and determine what makes him tick.  Do we succeed?  Download the episode now and you can be the judge of that.  Enjoy.

This Wednesday across the nation we will be seeing Tea Parties as protests over the over-taxing that we are all continuing to be subject to.  Here in Duluth we are no different.  Today's show features a conversation with one of the organizers of the Duluth Tea Party, local business man Bob Hansen.  We talk about the party itself, the reasons for it, and even dive into a bit Hansen's prior involvement with that local blog for "citizens".  It's a good conversation and we here at Danny Does Duluth encourage all to attend this Wednesday's Tea Party behind the DECC starting at 12:15pm.  For more information go to www.duluthteaparty.com

 

Ok.  So we were'nt really sure if we were going to do a show or not today.  But we changed our mind at the last minute and crapped this one out.  Did it turn out alright?  We'll let you be the judge.  More importantly, we here at Danny Does Duluth hope that y'all have a safe and enjoyable Easter weekend.  On today's episode:

-Danny is SOOOOOOOOO busy

-A really, really good Craig's Corner

-Danny's ink and the Tea Party

-Herb Bergson's mayoral portrait?

-Here comes Dennis Cottontail

Enjoy!

We start things off by passing on a short explanation from our old buddy Subdouche.  But the real meat of this episode comes in the triumphant return of the Local Feel-Good Story feature to Danny Does Duluth!  And trust us, today's story is a good one.  Enjoy.

In a follow-up to Monday's show, we spend the majority of today's episode enjoying some more constructive feedback from our pals over at Perfect Duluth Day!  But that's not all, kids!  Danny starts today's show off with a bit of an announcement regarding the future of Danny Does Duluth!  So don't just sit there!  Download!  Download now!  Enjoy.

Because there has been so much going on lately, we have not really had the time to cover something very important to us here at DDD.  That would be FOX21 finally getting a website.  On today's show we dive deep into fox21online and enjoy one of the hard-hitting stories reported by Beth Jett as part of her Animal Tales series.  And guess what.  We get to learn more about Asher the Fur-Baby!!!  Enjoy.

Happy Monday, everyone!  We kick off this week with love.  In a continuation of Friday's show (where we chronicled the Starfire/Craig feud) today we have decided to take a look at some of the feedback provided for that very show over on Perfect Duluth Day!  How exciting is that?  Enjoy!

Is there anything better then a good internet feud?  It really is great, huh?  In this episode we tackle a virtual battle that has heated up significantly over the last week or so.  Fun, fun stuff in this full-length show!  On today's episode:

-Anything better then a good internet fight?

-A visit from the 40 Year Old Man Who Wants To Be Called Starfire

-Another edition of Craig's Corner

-Ashley spazes out

Enjoy!

Wow!  What a journey it has been to bring us to today's episode!  If you people knew what Danny goes through to bring you this high-quality entertainment, you would be amazed.  We had more technical issues today then ever before but Danny and Ashley have struggled and were able to overcome to bring what is going to be seen as the greatest interview ever on DDD.  This is huge, folks.  Hands down the greatest thing that has ever happened to this show.  Download, listen, and experience the magic that is EPISODE 115!

There have been some things going on that I have failed to talk about on DANNY DOES DULUTH.  In this episode I am going to attempt to come clean and discuss those very issues.  It's a bittersweet feeling, quite honestly.  Just like most situations in life, there's good news and there's bad news.  Hopefully the good will overshadow the bad and the future will be brighter then it has ever been before.  Take a listen and judge for yourself, though.

And I really don't say this enough...but thank you all for continuing to listen.  It is deeply appreciated.

-Daniel

Residents of the area were recently creeped out by this posting on Perfect Duluth Day: http://www.perfectduluthday.com/2009/03/30/grocery-store-stalker/

We here at DDD have decided as a public service to get to the bottom of this.  So, for the first time ever Starfire himself stops by the studio to attempt to explain himself.  Enjoy!

There's a storm coming, mama.  Ok.  We're going to ignore the weather and the next hell-storm today.  Instead, we get an exclusive interview with a pimple.  Aren't you glad that you're a listener of this brilliant podcast?

So, Lew Latto Live was supposed to be on the air today to broadcast the last show.  But something went very, very wrong.  What was that something?  Well, apparently it was marketing manager at WDSM Ron Stone, that's what.  The local blogs and news sites are buzzing like mad today at this current development in the controversy known as Latto-Gate.  So, we here at Danny Does Duluth have decided to dedicate this entire episode to the situation.  And trust us, we have a few takes on this that you will NOT hear anywhere else.  Plus, Craig's Corner!

Enjoy!

Ok.  First the bad news.  There will be no new show tomorrow.  We've got an "event".  Now the good news.  You DO get a new episode today!  And it's not just any old crummy episode hosted by Danny and Ashley.  No no no.  Instead, the great Lew Latto steps into the Danny Does Duluth studio to host the show.  So what will Lew talk about?  Will he discuss the conspiracy known as Latto-gate?  You'll just have to listen to find out.  Enjoy!

The great conspiracy known as Latto-Gate continues!  On today's show Danny and Ashley discuss the latest news and rumors about the mysterious Lew Latto countdown clock, news of Double-L moving to another local station, and much, much more.  So what does Subdouche have to do with all of this?  And did the webmaster at The Patriot figure out how to spell "recently"?  All of these questions and more answered on today's award winning DDD!

So we get rain to wash away all of the filthy snow, but then the rain freezes up and makes the roads scary-slick.  Fun, huh?  Better to stay inside and listen to the latest from Danny and Ashley.  Today our hosts dive even deeper into the sadness that is the WDSM website.  Also, head on over to lewlatto.com and check out the cryptic countdown clock.

We are back with a full-length episode of everyone's favorite local podcast!  It's the first day of spring and instead of going outside and enjoying the wonderful weather why not coop yourself up indoors and listen to DDD?  On today's episode:

-A short visit from President Barry O.

-Messing with WDSM's poll.

-Craig's Corner.

-FOX21 Mad Libs!

Enjoy!

So, Lew Latto is signing off next week and he doesn't seem to want to talk about it on the air.  Weird.  In the meantime, join Danny and Ashley as they take a look at WDSM's website wdsm710.com.  Let's just say that it's sad.  Really sad.

Well, it looks like the rumors are true.  There's been alot of talk lately that the old man with a pony-tail is about to be no more on the local airwaves.  Check out http://www.duluthnewstribune.com/event/article/id/115167/

and www.duluthpolitics.blogspot.com for more details on this.  So what does Danny thing about this strange turn of events?  Well, you'll just have to listen to find out, Silly.

You would think that a podcast with "Danny" in the title would do a little more to celebrate St. Patty's day, right?  Well...Danny's Polish.  So too bad.  Instead you get the short conclusion to the latest interview with dcbwatch.blogspot.com's Subdude.  And listen closely to end.  Danny offers 'dude a couple of tips that's sure to get the proprieter(s) of the DCB's Irish up.  Enjoy!

Grease Monkey Boy.  An interesting term, no?  Are we to focus on GREASE MONKEY Boy?  Or is it meant to mean Grease MONKEY BOY?  Or possibly it's just a mistake and the phrase is supposed to be Greasy Monkey Boy.  Join Danny and Ashley as they try to get to the bottom of this mystery.

Well.  Here we go.  We said we would be doing more shows for you.  For your listening pleasure here is part II of the latest riviting conversation between dcbwatch.blogspot.com's Subdude and Danny.  Enjoy!

We told you we were going to be doing this more often.  On today's shorty episode Danny and Ashley have a couple of choices as to what they want to discuss.  Unfortunately that choice was made for them as they ended up getting an impromptu visit from a certain fixture of the local blogosphere.

New show!  New computer!  New sound problems!  New announcements!  New controversies!  Oh the joys that await you in the highly-anticipated Episode 100 of everyone's favorite local podcast, Danny Does Duluth!  We really are sorry for the horrible sound quality of this episode (sort of).  It will be worked out, eventually.  As for the content, it is definately not horrible.  We have interviews with not one, not two, but THREE locals.  We have a follow-up with dcbwatch.blogstop.com guru Subdude.  We also have a first ever DDD conversation with city councilor Todd Fedora.  And we also have another first.  A first ever conversation with Duluth News Tribune scoop-master Brandon Stahl.  Whatever will Danny talk about with those three?  Sit back, put your feet up, adjust your ears to the tinny-sound, and enjoy the hour-long Episode 100!

I got 99 episodes and a "C" ain't one. 

Ok.  That was stupid.

We are celebrating the upcoming 100th episode of everyone's favorite local podcast by presenting the absolute best of what we have done thus far.  Yeah.  That's right.  It's a flashback episode.  You wanna fight about it?  But we've decided to throw a little something extra in to the mix.  Guess who is hosting this look back on DDD's greatest hits?  Why, it's none other than Danny's wife in an extremely rare podcast appearance!  How exciting!  So sit back and listen to see if your favorite clip from the past made it into this very special Best of Danny Does Duluth. 

Enjoy!

So here's the deal.  Danny is extremely busy right now.  We'd like to say that that he's busy with preperations for the much anticipated 100th episode of Danny Does Duluth.  We'd like to say that, but then we'd be lying.  Regardless, to give you something to enjoy during this time Danny has decided to bring in the first ever guest-host for the show and it's none other than Craig from Localm.com!  We've listened already and we can tell you that the episode features Craig ranting, raving, being almost disturbing at times, cracking jokes, yelling about Superior and Duluth and their "fued" and it is absolutely delightful.  So sit back, relax, and enjoy!  On today's show:

-Craig rants about Perfect Day Duluth

-Classic Lew Latto

-Craig rants about Red Rock Radio / Duluth News Tribune

-Superior name (classic bit)

-Craig rants some more and then recites a poem about Julie Pearce

Enjoy!

We have some good news and some bad news.  The good news: you get a brand new episode of DDD today featuring the return of a favorite "guest" of the show.  The bad news:  We're going to be pretty sporatic with new episodes for a couple of weeks.  We know.  We know.  You are all on the edge of your seats waiting for the great Episode 100, right?  Well, cut us some slack.  We're busy!  On today's show:

-Danny's Big Friday the 13th Adventure

-More Words of Wisdom for Women

-Dennis Anderson's shovel-ready stimulus project

Enjoy!

CH CH CH.  HAW HAW HAW.  Happy Friday the 13th everybody!  On this unluckiest of days you ironically re incredibly lucky because you get a brand new edition of the award-winning Danny Does Duluth!  Screw avoiding walking under laters and staying away from black cats.  The fact that you get a new show today is proof that there is no such thing as luck...bad or good.  On today's episode:

-Theories on the lack of a DCBTony interview

-Get a job!

-Danny's brilliant 15 steps to save Midwest Communications

Enjoy!

AHHHHH!  Killer Ice Storm!  Killer Ice Storm!  We're all going to die!

Ok.  So maybe it just rained.  We at the Danny Does Duluth Studios were all prepared to hunker down and skip doing an episode today due to the horrible weather that never came.  But, since it's just fine and we're all still alive, Ashley and Danny managed to crap an episode out.  On today's show:

-The Logical Follow-Up to the Conversation with "Duluth's Original Tony Ramone"

-Words of Wisdom for Women

-Danny's New Hero: Machine Gun Kelly

Enjoy!

Frost/Nixon can suck it.  If Opie Cunningham wanted to make a movie about a historic interview he should have waited for this one.  On today's terrific episode Danny sits down and has a conversation with the guy who runs the much-talked about dcbwatch.blogspot.com (among other local blogs).  Join Danny and "Duluth's Original Tony Ramone" as they discuss many controversial topics that are typical of the local blogosphere.  This is a good one, folks.  Well worth the wait and the hype.  Enjoy!

Well, well, well.  The greatest week of DDD ever is shaping up to be quite interesting, is it not?  We kick things off with today's episode where Danny gives the run-down to Ashley of all the gory details of last night's historic meeting between himself and the mayor (and Danny's wife).  And check your calenders.  It's not April 1st today, so this isn't a lame April Fool's joke this time.  There's lots of content for you to enjoy in this ep, folks!  Today's show:

-Ashley now thinks this town is in trouble

-Danny's one real question for Mayor Don Donny

-Beer

-Danny's advice for Mayor Don Donny

Enjoy!

Well, they all can't be winners.  Since today is sort of a slow news day locally, we have sort of a slow podcast day here on Danny Does Duluth.  We really are sorry for not stepping up and entertaining you better then this.  We are so ashamed.  Oh well.   Even the crappiest episode of DDD is better than the greatest episode of KQ's Trainwreck.  On today's show:

-Danny's mysterious list

-Rock musicians died in a plane crash 50 years ago shortly after performing in Duluth.  Coincidence?

-The Shannon Murphy Dirty Word Game

-Time to sing the news

Enjoy!

Boy oh boy!   You sure are some lucky listeners.  It seems like it was just a few short weeks ago where Danny went into a big, exciting diatribe against the local blog-o-sphere.  Remember how fun that was?  Well, guess what DDD fans?  You get a brand new rant against the local blog-o-sphere on this episode too!  Not only that, but you also get to hear Danny discuss the fallout of DDD being "featured" on last Friday's KQDS Trainwreck!  Does the fun ever stop?  Enjoy!

Another day, another show.  We are now only 10 episodes away from the landmark 100th episode of Danny Does Duluth.  How exciting is that, huh?  But don't worry, we're not going to just phone it in until then.  Take today's episode, for example.  Where else can you hear nearly 4 minutes of a crummy, small-market afternoon radio show in podcast form?  Nowhere, that's where!  On today's show:

-Barry and Shelly do WHAT together?

-The Subdouche Douchie Comment Of The Week

-Hard Hitting Journalist...guess who

-Nice Friggin' Segway, KQ's Trainwreck!

Enjoy!

Seriously.  Is anything going on today?  We really wanted to do an episode of Danny Does Duluth today, but we just couldn't find anything to talk about.  This must be the slowest news day of all time because there just doesnt seem to be anything at all happening anywhere.  Oh well.  We did our best to make due.  On today's episode:

-A desperate attempt to make a Duluth/Obama connection

-Special DDD correspondent "C" live from Washington DC

-Raising the roof with joy...by complaining about Bush

-A visit from President Barry Obama

Enjoy!

Sort of a thrown together episode today.  Hopefully the faults don't show too much.  We do have the pleasure of talking to Craig from localm.com today, however.  Craig and Danny have a pleasant conversation about a number of topics including the local media's problems and the film The Wrestler.  But that's not it for today.  On this episode:

-More douchiness from Subdouche

-Crack?  Seriously?  CRACK?!?

-A conversation with Craig from localm.com

Enjoy!

Why is it that some local citizens say they hate internet "trolls" so much and then they feed said trolls with tons of material for their stupd little podcast?  Confused yet?  Well, it seems that our old buddy Subdouche is at it again and that bug climbed back up his butt which forces him to think that the host of this very show is not only every single poster on the Duluth Citizens Blog, but also apparently the antichrist.  But that's not all we talk about today.  Listen and enjoy!  On today's episode:

-The Duluth City Council American Idol Finale

-A couple of concerned citizns stand around in the name of peace

-More fun from dcbwatch.blogspot.com

Enjoy!

Guess what?  Danny Does Duluth is going digital!  Well, ok.  I guess we've always been digital.  No changes coming to this form of entertainment and information.  We do cover the upcoming switch to digital for the TV-viewing public, however.  The Countdown Is On!  On today's episode:

-If you steal something and plan to replace it, it's still stealing.

-Duluth is in the Top 10...in being behind switching to digital.

-Danny's a genius.

-A deep analysis of the latest issue of Labor World.

Enjoy!

Sweeping musical numbers.  Men slapping men.  Nude male dancing.  Yup.  The first show of 2009 is setting the bar as far as gayness goes.  Finally, after months of speculation the day has finally arrived.  Danny and Ashley award the honor to a slew of locals for their great contributions in 2008 by way of the Danny Awards.  So sit back and enjoy the glitz and glamour of the show.

Tis the season to wonder why we all live in a town covered in non-stop snow.  We here at DDD are pretty much sick of the weather.  We try to turn that frustration around by bringing everyone a brand new, festive, Christmas week episode of Duluth's favorite podcast.  So sit back with a cup of 'nog, snuggle up with you loved ones, and enjoy!  On today's show:

-Listening to X-Mas music

-Drunken cookies

-A theft at a dollar store

-The Gift

Dennis Anderson provides a very smelly Christmas reading

Enjoy!

We're treating this episode as sort of a catch-up show.  Basically this means we tried to get to all the stuff we have been unable to cover on recent episodes due to unforseen circumstances.  On today's show:

-I hate the snow

-Judge Judy follow-up

-The Boy gets in trouble while singing on Channel 10

-LeAnn Wallace: Hard Hitting Journalist

-Maxi Child gives us two good reasons to by the Christmas By The Lake CD

-ALL of the nominees for the 2008 Danny Awards announced!

Enjoy!

Is there any greater feeling then watching a big, nationally syndicated TV show and seeing a few of your fellow local citizens featured on said show?  We submit that there is not.  We have lots and lots of stuff to cover on this episode but we don't get to very much of it thanks to a little angry Jewish woman from New York.  On today's show:

-Vascectomy-Mania

-Duluthians on last night's Judge Judy!

-Two reasons to buy the Christmas By The Lake II CD

Enjoy!

Recently on Danny Does Duluth we have been spending quite a bit of time discussing the process for picking the next Duluthian to fill the open council seat.  We were lucky enough to have two brief conversations with two of the 35 applicants on past episodes, but today we spend the entire episode focusing on another with a bit of a controversial history.  Jay Cole comes onto the show and talks about his qualifications for the job, the controversy in Two Harbors, his feelings on the Northland NewsCenter (and their recent reports on him) and more.  This all makes for a very interesting nearly-hour long interview.  Enjoy.

We're just going to come right out and say it.  This one is a doozy.  You know how episodes of Danny Does Duluth are sometimes hit or miss?  Well, this one is definately a hit.  We cover the entire gauntlet from doing our part for the public with yet another interview with an applicant to open council seat to...well...you'll just have to listen through the end to categorize everything else.  How's that for a build up?  On this episode:

-What is the deal with LeAnn Wallace's ridiculous mittens?

-A conversation with Daniel Hartman (applicant to the open council seat)

-Terroristic threats from a councilor wannabe?

-The Dennis Anderson Poopsy Whoopsy Doll

Enjoy!

Time for us to play "journalist" again.  The open at-large city council seat has a total of 35 potential locals who have applied for the job.  We were lucky enough to talk to one of them today.  John Rathe (from duluthpolitics.blogspot.com) has a conversation with Danny about his chances, his detractors, and more.  Also on this episode:

-A conversation with John Rathe

-Danny and Ashley scientifically pick the next councilor

-A major announcement: The 2008 Danny's!

Enjoy!

PART 2 - This is not only what DDD is all about, but it's also what the holiday season is all about.  Is there anything better than the Christmas City of the North Parade?  We don't think so.  Why not sit back, enjoy your Thanksgiving week, and listen to this long, 2 parter where Danny and Ashley provide in-depth analysis of the 50th annual event.  You will hear about George's hatred of dancing and clowns.  You will hear evidence of a deep-seeded rift between Barbara and Michelle.  You will hear George babble on about the weather.  You will hear George get racial.  You will hear Barbara making some disturbing admissions.  You will hear the word "anthromorphic".  All this and more on The 1st Annual Danny Does Duluth Christmas City Of The North Parade Coverage Special!

PART 1 - This is not only what DDD is all about, but it's also what the holiday season is all about.  Is there anything better than the Christmas City of the North Parade?  We don't think so.  Why not sit back, enjoy your Thanksgiving week, and listen to this long, 2 parter where Danny and Ashley provide in-depth analysis of the 50th annual event.  You will hear about George's hatred of dancing and clowns.  You will hear evidence of a deep-seeded rift between Barbara and Michelle.  You will hear George babble on about the weather.  You will hear George get racial.  You will hear Barbara making some disturbing admissions.  You will hear the word "anthromorphic".  All this and more on The 1st Annual Danny Does Duluth Christmas City Of The North Parade Coverage Special!

 

Well now.  What should we talk about?  This entire episode is basically Danny explaining the end of the episode 75.  At least, that's what was supposed to happen.  It ends up just being a long rant against the local blog-o-sphere.  Do Danny and Ashley provide any answers to questions plaguing our community?  You'll have to listen to find out.

Short episode.  On today's show:

-Best pie in Duluth

-Trevor Roy: Hard Hitting Journalist

-The End of Danny Does Duluth

Isn't it depressing that the Northland News Center seems to be moving away from putting video clips up on their website?  Ok.  Maybe it's just depressing to us.  Somehow, someway we were still able to get a show out today, however.  Lots for you to enjoy here including the first entry into an important weekly honor!  Today's show:

-The area gets a mention from FoxNews

-No new NNC videos?  Time to slum it with WDIO.

-The first ever Official DDD Local Blog D-Bag Of The Week!

-40-Year Old Man Who Wants To Be Called Starfire: beatnik

-Yet another visit from President Elect Obama

Enjoy!

Today's episode is an interesting one.  Instead of getting the opportunity to listen to Danny and Ashley blather on about local newscasters and politics you get something entirely different.  Ok.  So maybe it's not that different.  This entire episode is dedicated to the the extremely close ballot question on Tuesday regarding the Lakeside alchohol ban.  On today's show:

-There is hope...a recount is possible and pretty easy to request

-Reaching across the aisle...asking for help from PDD'ers*

-Reactions from supporters and Councilor Todd Fedora

-Danny's final decision

Enjoy

 

*NOTE: Since this episode was recorded earlier today, the post asking for help on perfectduluthday.com has been removed.  It is unknown why this has occured.

Well, it's finally over.  And to answer some questions on various local blogs, this does NOT mean that Danny Does Duluth is not going away any time soon.  This CHANGEs nothing.  On today's show:

-2,858-2,857: Danny Blames His Wife

-Volunteering at a Kids Voting booth

-Danny For Congress in 2010?

A visit from President Elect Obama

Enjoy!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN EVERYONE!  Danny gives us all a special treat today.  Ok.  It's not really special.  It's just another episode of the show.  Nothing special about it, in fact.  Tell you what.  Pretend that it's a full-sized Snickers bar.  On today's episode:

-Danny "sings" on Brad Bennett's show

-Our favorite hard-hitting journalist gives us some Halloween safety tips

-Ralph Doty: Still a douche

-BS writes about booze in Lakeside

Enjoy!

Well, we're back!  And we're frustrated!  OK, more specifically Danny is frustrated with the severe lack of half-way decent Barack Obama impressions from any comedian.  The guy's about to win the presidency, for crying out loud!  So, instead of just complaining about it, Danny has decided to attempt his own Obama impersonation.  How'd he do?  Eh.  On today's episode:

-Ashley's got a backwards "B" on her cheek

-Trying to make Al Franken ads funny

-Super Danny Sunday

-A visit from Senator Barack Obama

Enjoy!

Well, since Ralph Doty is doing his best to try and destroy commerce, we're going to see if we can help encourage it.  Ok.  That's maybe a stretch.  Either way, lot's of good stuff on today's extra-long episode.  Included is Danny's interview with the guy selling the Virgin Mary agate!  On today's show:

-A satisfying Honk N' Flip / Sportswomen for Obama

-Top of the Harbor is squeeky / Wale oil

-Ralph Doty...still a d-bag

-Danny interview's the guy selling the Virgin Mary agate

-FOR SALE: www.lewlattolive.com

Did we go over the line with this one?  Who knows?  Who cares, really?  This will be the only fresh episode this week (due in part to the nagging technical issues) but rest-assured, it's a goody.  Old school fans of WWOD should enjoy the guest voice.  On today's show:

-A Decade of Danny

-DNT's Our View is our view, too.

-Worse council session ever

-When Claire's Attack

Enjoy!

Well, the economy is in the toilet, the weather is crummy...but at least you have an all new episode of Danny Does Duluth to make things right!  This is a shorty, but still a goody.  By the way, please try to ignore the poor sound quality.  We had some issues.  On today's show:

-Danny pretends to interview Ralph Doty

-Valtrex

-A Tribute to the retiring Pat Kelly

Enjoy!

Isn't it nice when you plan on recording an entire episode around a particular subject and then that subject blows you off?  No.  It is not nice at all.  Download and listen to the whole story and try to put up with Danny's incoherent ranting.  On this show:

-Ralph Doty on the show...or maybe not

-Submarine Vets love Danny

-For Sale: Ugly Racism

-Psychics.  Yes, psychics.

Enjoy!

HEY!  Look who's back in town!  It's Danny!  Joy!  We're back after a week and a half of fun and frivolity in America's tourist mecca, Walt Disney World!  So fret no more, sit back, relax, and enjoy listening to Danny whine for a while about his trip and some local stuff that happened while he was away.  On today's episode:

-Disney World...the land of foreigners and fat people

-I wonder who Don Donny supports in the presidential race?

-Gee...do you think that Ralph Doty is a little bitter?

-LeeAnn Wallace meets Hanson

Enjoy!

Can you tell that I could'nt really come up with a name for this episode?  I like to think the reason for that is there is so much good stuff within the show that I could'nt pick one thing to focus on to highlight in the title.  Listen and judge for yourself.  Not only is this a return to a "traditional" episode of DDD, but it's also the last episode for a couple of weeks (we are taking an extended vacation).  So, get it while it's good!  This episode:

-A 9 minute clip from The Help Me Rhonda Show

-New DDD Sponser: The Russ Stewart Insomnia Cure

-Two dumbass letters

-LeAnn Wallace: Hard-Hitting Journalist

Enjoy!

Jim Oberstar has managed to be a congressman for the entire time that I have been alive.  On prior episodes of this show I've expressed my frustrations with Congressman Oberstar and his lack of any real accomplishment.  On today's very special show I have the great opportunity to speak with his opponent in the upcoming election...Mike Cummins.  Mr. Cummins has been largely ignored by the local media, but not here.  Take a listen and you'll hear a real good pitch as to why we should all change our traditional vote this November.

More on Mike Cummins can be found here:

www.cumminsforcongress.com

 

Another show already?  You're welcome.  We're going to try and get back on a regular show schedule again here...at least until I go on vacation in a couple of weeks.  Just be happy that you get more Danny goodness today, ok?  On this episode:

-Ashley calls Oprah

-Big changes in local radio / Ashley writes Rhonda's theme song

-Finally we can all find out how to go green!  Finally!

-Don Donny Ness conducts radio auction to sell stained glass window

Enjoy!

The conventions are over but we here at DDD are just getting started with our political rhetoric.  We cover a lot in this little 30 minute episode, so we're sure there will be something you will be offended by.  On today's show:

-Opening salvo: Ugly, bored protesters

-LeAnne Wallace from the RNC

-Another feel-good Duluth story

-Mike Cummins is coming

-Danny admits to drinking Kool-Aid

Enjoy!

Well, we're sorry about the long wait.  Also, we're sorry that we don't really have a good reason for the wait.  Oh well.  You'll get over it.  We have a feeling you'll put all the frustration aside when you hear one of the funniest segments ever on the show.  What is the meaning of the title of this episode?  You'll find out in this segment.  On today's show:

-Danny on his soapbox about the Fire Department

-New Lew commercial

-So, Trevor Roy is a lesbian?

-The Ashley Interview 1:An Interview with Ronald

Check out the new DDD message board.  Or don't.  Whatever.  Here's the addy: http://dannydoesduluth.easyfreeforum.com

Time to take a ride on the emotional roller coaster that is Danny Mountain!  This episode runs the gamut from sadness, to anger, to pure joy.  So what could possibly lead to all of these traits?  Get to downloading and find out!  On this show:

-The struggle to get on local weekend small market A.M. radio

-Some local feel-good stories

-Introducing...the Dulympics!

Enjoy!

Ok.  So you probably wanted to know what it would be like if we did an entire episode with zero preperation.  Well, here you go.  We recorded this show while watching tonight's Northland NewsCenter Channel 3 broadcast waiting to find out if Deaf Man's Plea was the big winner of their YouNewsTV contest.  Did it win?  You'll have to listen to the entire episode to find out.

-Ashley's back

-Mr.T gives a spech

-Why exactly is Lew Latto the northland's best radio host?

-George Kessler's theme song

Well, it's another one of those weeks where we're only going to manage to crap out one episode.  We're sorry.  To console yourselves, why don't you head on over to northlandnewscenter.com and vote for Deaf Man's Plea in the YouNews TV contest.  See?  You're feeling better already, right?  Today's episode:

Danny's on edge during this episode and it shows.  After the landmark Episode 50 which was chalk-full of memorable moments, this show is basically the host babbling on about his 4th of July.  Oh well.  They all can't be winners.  On this episode:

-Danny's finally gets an answer from the Republican National Convention

-A loooooong weekend recap filled with generic Slip N' Slides, Coors Light, obscure video games, and a quest for old wrestling tapes

Enjoy!

"Inspiration" is the running theme in this, our landmark 50th episode.  In this extra-long edition of the greatness that is DDD, we invite you to sit back, throw a couple of weinies on the ol' grill, grab a cold one, and enjoy your 4th of July with your pals Danny and Ashley.  On this show:

Well, we were able to pull it off.  Somehow, someway we were able to actually record a regular full episode of the podcast sweeping the town, Danny Does Duluth.  Not only that, but we'll probably manage to squeeze another chapter of the Marathon Of Shows in tommorrow.  Regardless, on this episode:

-Danny discusses a killer voicemail he got...then doesn't play it.

Hey look!  We're keeping up with this Marathon Of Shows thing!  On today's eleven and a half minutes of Danny-Mania we give an update on the WDSM weekend situation, we talk about UNO, and Danny tells a tale about meeting the Honky Tonk Man.  Enjoy!

Ok.  We lied.  Today was supposed to be the proper Episode 47 of DANNY DOES DULUTH.  But stuff came up.  Instead, we're keeping our promise with the Marathon Of Shows with over eleven minutes of DDD goodness.  We cover a number of topics including the NBA Finals, Mike Jaros, WDSM's possible empty spaces, the Republican convention,  and Lew Latto's "boy trip".  Enjoy.

This Saturday is the big annual event where thousands of people actually run TOWARDS Duluth!  To celebrate, we're treating everyone to a special marathon of shows all week long!  In addition to the regular-length Tuesday and Friday episodes, we will be featuring shorter shows every other day of the week!  You sure are lucky!

I was hesitant to do this show.  The first half of the episode involves some research I've done in regards to the record and employment of the Duluth Fire Department and the findings are pretty ugly.  But don't worry, there's plenty of the stupidity you've come to expect on the second half of the show.

-Rating the bands of the Homegrown Festival

Finally, Danny Does Duluth gets the legitimacy that it so rightly deserves.  This is a very, very different episode as we stray away from our normal fun and frivolity and conduct a serious, sit-down interview with current Duluth mayor Don Ness.  The mayor was kind enough to give Danny 20 minutes of his time to answer questions on a number of topics important to the Northland.  The discussion includes inquiries on the controversial school board Red Plan, issues of eminent domain, and the best ways to solve the retiree health-care debacle.  Controversy also rears it's head in this interview as Danny asks Mr. Ness if he thinks that racism is a problem plaguing the city council.  It even gets a bit personal as the mayor takes umbrage with Danny accusing Mr. Ness's wife of having no redeeming qualities on a previous episode of the show.

The entire episode is heavy, deep, and quite possibly the most open interview that Don Ness has given since being in the public eye.  On a personal note, I really appreciate the fact that he would take the time to do this with me.  All it took was a simple phone call and to me, that is very, very classy and a great way to show that he really cares about his constituants.  The mayor is a very intriguing man, and it shows in this very intriguing interview.

Enjoy.
