Tom Robbins and I shared a rollicking pen pal relationship for years, starting back when I was living in a hippie community in Topanga Canyon.
I lost most of our letters when I fled LA in 2019, though one particularly lovely one does sit on my altar (an unabridged dictionary). Tom donated the bulk of my letters to him to a University library, but I'm happy to have tripped upon a photograph of this letter, in particular.
My then boyfriend, a Swedish playboy/model, was mucho jealous of our ongoing exchange, and insisted that I let Tom know, in no uncertain terms, that I wasn't available for any hanky-panky. And so it was that I scribbled, "P.S. I don't want to have sex with you", on the back of a letter I'd just stamped, before slipping it in the mailbox slot at the Malibu post office. This was his
I was blessed to meet Tom in 2019. I handed him a signed copy of my transformational coloring book, YES, I AM. He looked at it and said, "Dani Katz! I remember you!", to which the woman standing next to me gushed, "Cool." It was interesting to have my literary hero recognize me, and to be witnessed in that recognition, which made it all the more real.
God freakin' bless, Tom Robbins.
Emily and I tackled the Aubrey threesome situation by way of my own experience dating a married couple, which made the cover of the LA Weekly back in 2008. We also dive into the latest shenanigans from our favorite WHINEstein brothers.

In this solo deep dive, Dani unpacks the deleterious dark side of “niceness,” and explores how our cultural obsession with being good, polite, and palatable keeps us dishonest, disconnected, and disempowered — and how reclaiming authenticity is the only path to real integrity and intimacy. Along the way, she explores the weaponization of “privilege,” the pitfalls of polarized thinking, and the covert ways philanthropy and media co-opt truth-telling.
This episode is a fiery reminder that playing “nice” isn’t the same thing as being kind — and that speaking truth, even when it’s uncomfortable, is the most loving act of all.
🎧 Tune in, share widely, and stop being nice already!

Author and Word Up podcast fave Paul Levy joined Dani for a(nother) rollicking conversation about wetiko (the collective mind virus), the reflections world events are offering us as ever-evolving souls, and how quantum physics is a terma – a hidden treasure designed to awaken humanity at key points of species-wide transition. As always, the Paul + Dani alchemy made for a super generative, high-vibe doozy of an exchange, filled with insights, illuminations and opportunities for those with eyes to see.
