| 0:00.0 | Hello, welcome to Danielle with the Stars. |
| 0:18.2 | I am Danielle Fischel, a TV director, a podcaster, Forever, Topanga, and a mom of two. |
| 0:25.5 | Currently, though, I am learning how to ballroom dance one step at a time. I'm training for |
| 0:31.9 | season 34 of Dancing with the Stars, premiering September 16th on ABC and Disney Plus, and I'm going to be |
| 0:39.7 | recording this podcast, chronicling my journey, giving you the inside story of one celebrity's |
| 0:47.4 | quest for a mirror ball trophy. And right now, I am engulfed in rehearsals. I'm practicing |
| 0:53.3 | every single day. And I figured |
| 0:55.7 | the best way for me to prep for a victory, because my goal is victory, is to talk to those who |
| 1:03.0 | have competed before me. And today I am chatting to someone from within the PodMeets World |
| 1:08.3 | Extended Universe, a celebrity dancer who participated in not just |
| 1:12.6 | one season of Dancing with the Stars, but two. She first competed in season five back in 2007 |

| 1:37.9 | moment of the year. And to write the wrong, she would return for season 15 in 2012, the only all-star incarnation to date, |
| 1:46.7 | now paired with Louis Van Amstel, and she placed eighth, eliminated exactly five years to the |
| 1:52.5 | date she controversially exited back in 2007. And in between the two appearances, she even |
| 1:58.6 | went on the road for Dancing with the Stars live. So if I am |
| 2:02.5 | going to get advice from anyone, I think I'm starting in the right place. Today on Danielle with |
| 2:07.9 | the Stars, I am paired with the iconic Cheetah Girl and the co-host of the Magical Rewind podcast. |
| 2:14.5 | It's Sabrina Brian. Sabrina, I am so happy that you are here to talk with me |
| 2:21.3 | and help me through this process. I am going to be honest, I feel in slightly over my head. So |
