Danielle and Galeet joined Millie Efraim on Persian Girl Podcast to discuss the tapes their family recoreded starting from the 1950s that were used throughout the Nightingale of Iran series, the reception of their podcast, their theory on the lasting effects of the "Motreb"/artist stigma in Jewish Persian communities, and why there are so few Jewish Persians in art and culture philanthropy and academia.

Danielle Dardashti, co-creator of The Nightingale of Iran, guests on podcast "Jews on Film.” Danielle is interviewed by hosts Daniel Zana and Harry Ottensoser, discussing the 2007 animated film "Persepolis," co-directed by Marjane Satrapi. They discuss Marjane’s split sense of identity. Danielle shares parallel stories from Nightingale. They chat about the pros and cons of various modern storytelling mediums. And they close out the episode ranking the film's "Jewishness" in terms of its cast & crew, content, and themes.
