Harley Malarkey Podcast: Old Dog New Tricks
On The Harley Malarkey Podcast: Old Dog, New Tricks, Brian Malarkey and Danielle Harley blend Gen X grit and Millennial mindfulness to explore the messy, magical world of modern relationships.
Each week, they tackle a new topic with raw honesty, humor, and an open heart—everything from age-gap relationships and sobriety to plastic surgery, parenting, and self-acceptance. Nothing is off-limits, and every conversation is infused with laughter, curiosity, and the kind of insight that only comes from living, loving, and learning—sometimes the hard way.
Malarkey is a celebrated chef, restaurateur, entrepreneur, and Food Network personality known for his larger-than-life energy and passion for bringing people together through unforgettable dining experiences. Harley is a thoughtful and dynamic businesswoman with what she lovingly calls a "minor in spirituality"—having studied Reiki, nutrition, psychology, and yoga as part of her own deep healing journey.
Together, they invite listeners into their world—not as experts, but as two people committed to understanding themselves, each other, and what it truly means to build a meaningful relationship. At its core, this podcast is about connection: learning to laugh more, judge less, and connect more deeply with yourself and the people you love.

Mary Magdalene: The Gospel They Tried to Mansplain Away
Today we’re talking about Mary Magdalene Revealed and the lost gospel that never made the biblical cut because the early church clearly wasn’t interested in hearing from women. With men mentioned by name around 1,700 times in scripture and women only 93, the imbalance speaks for itself. We explore what Christianity might have looked like if the divine feminine hadn’t been edited out. Harley has a lightbulb moment about why she always hated history class: it all based on men and war and power struggles… not the kind of humanity or perspective women actually connect to.
