The First Worldwide Resistance!
Why Here? Why Now?!

EPISODE SCRIPT:
SECTION 1 — IMPORTANT VIEWER ADVISORY (CONTROVERSIAL + MINORS)

Before we start, Quick advisory:

Some content in this series will be controversial. Some content will be inappropriate for minors. I do not want kids seeing triggering footage or anything potentially traumatic.

If you’re an adult with a child: please review the topic first, and if you decide your child should watch, watch with them.

And a personal boundary: I’m an adult, I will use foul language sometimes, my apologies I will do my best to keep that to a minimum but my mother was a New Yorker and my father is a trucker, so keep in mind I do it from habit. 

Next; I’m proud of my body, and some of my social media reflects that. If someone under 18 is a fan of me, they should not be scrolling my adult photos. Parents: please use your judgment and keep your kids in age-appropriate spaces.

Now—back to the mission.

SECTION 2 — THANK YOU + WHY THIS VERSION EXISTS
Before we kick off this episode,  I need to genuinely thank the people, from the bottom of my of my heart who watched or listened to the earlier versions of this project. Who have been there through the beginning of the journey, or joined along the way. 

Ive now been working on this podcast for years with thousands of hours put into it, and only because of the great people who I have been calling the resistance so far, but now many are wondering why I am restarting.

Some of you have been here since “Project Blue Dani,” which was a different version of this show, and and I appreciate you for being there as you put your time into something that was long dense heavy but very real and we really did start something a movement with that so thank you.

This is the fourth time I’ve recorded this is the fourth time I’ve recorded the show and the last time was gonna be the last time but I’m very sure this time is, haha. 

Im making some pretty necessary upgrades to the opening introduction episodes—more context, better structure, and clearer sourcing to begin with—so the foundation is stronger. The episodes will be shorter.

Each day, before I record my episode, I will update sources with newest information. I have created a new citation format so each details is sources for you. However that’s not the main reason for the recording and name changes.

SECTION 3 — WHY THE NAME CHANGED (USA →WORLDWIDE)

This project used to be more America-focused.

But as I’ve met people from around the world and heard their stories, I realized something:

As small as our voice can feel in America, many people in other countries have an even smaller one—because if they speak up, their government can hurt them, imprison them, or worse.

So this evolved.

Much of the show will still start from America, especially in the beginning, because America has relationships with almost every country on the planet.

But the information will come from all directions, as long as it helps the Resistance learn the truth—because the truth sets us all free.

So the truth is that last year I had a lot of information that I couldn’t post because my name was too small and I felt it would  be dangerous and not be smart at the time. Now I’m very humble and thankful, with millions of views, and throughout my platforms over 100,000 followers, I now can get into the really good information! So I can really start making a change.

The show was originally called Project Blue Dani because I felt like I needed to make my voice, so that I could have a voice and be a voice for others… This show is no longer about me growing an audience so I can start trying to save the world.

It’s about you and I, and all of us working together to save the world.

The game changed, so the name changed.

We are now The Resistance Rises Podcast.

And this first episode is called The First World Wide Resistance! WHY HERE? WHY NOW?!

Because the truth is: this isn’t just about one country.

It’s about power—global power—moving through systems, money, technology, family, royalty and so much more Through control and power.

The world is on high alert.

America calls itself a superpower—so why don’t we use our power to protect people instead of hurting them?

With that being said: The Resistance is looking for interpreters.

If you want to help translate this work for your language or country, please share what you can.

And if you want to work more officially with us, reach out—because we’re building something global, and we need voices from everywhere.

Also: feel free to skip anything you already know.

However some of this is a refresh—even for me. And if I needed a refresh, I’m betting a lot of you will too.

SECTION 4 — WHAT THE RESISTANCE IS (AND IS NOT)

The Resistance is not a club where money buys power.

Yes—if someone has resources and wants to help fund protection, research, and infrastructure, that helps.

But it will not buy you status.

It will not buy you authority.

It will not buy you a spot.

The Resistance is made of people who care about people.

We don’t need to all have the same opinions.

We do need to be respectful of each other’s thinking.

Comment sections are open for real discussion—hate is not allowed.

Do not make people feel stupid for questions or viewpoints.

And just because someone supports the show—or appears on the show—does not mean they agree with everything I say.

Does not mean that that person agrees with everything that I say because again I’m not here to be the voice of everyone I’m here to be the voice for hopefully everyone that’s I don’t want to control or have you know a thought process and have it be something that all of a sudden everyone takes on it’s about you learning about my thought process and learning about your thought process and us learning from each other and that being said I always say that I’m very grateful for you letting me into your story and then also you know I’m grateful that you were in my story now as well so thank you for that and I mean that in the bottom of my heart it doesn’t matter who you are every single person that is part of this it’s like I’m so grateful that you are so thank you.

The Resistance respects individuality.

Opinions change. Mine have changed in the last year or two.

That’s not weakness. That’s growth.

The resistance is a group of everyday ordinary people coming together to do extraordinary things. Power comes with knowledge, power comes in numbers, and power comes by standing in your true light, also helping others stand in their true light. The resistance is love, and empathy, and knowledge, and helping each other, and positivity, and standing up for what is right.

You might think that you’re not a good person because you’ve done bad things but we all have, remember this, good is not something that you are, it’s something that you do.

SECTION 5 — THE DLA CITATION SYSTEM (SIMPLE VERSION)

As mentioned earlier, I created a format called the DLA Citation System Designated Language Analysis Citation Format, which I recommend you using over MLA, a APA or any other citation formatting—not because MLA or APA are bad, but because they’re built for papers, not for fast-moving audio/video where we jump across history, economics, science, technology, and government documentation in one storyline.

Here’s the rule:

I only tag citation numbers when I’m stating a specific, verifiable fact—like a death toll, a law, a date, a report, a named study, or a measurable claim.

If I’m speaking in metaphor, emotional truth, or obvious context, I’m not going to interrupt the story with footnote spam.

DLA is built for one thing: you being able to verify reality fast.

And that’s what this podcast is about.

SECTION 6 — THE THESIS (WHAT THIS REALLY IS)

I believe that any good book, story, or show needs a good thesis, so what I wrote down for this show is: What used to be our ancestors’ hard-earned land—and what should have been their intergenerational wealth: gold, minerals, stories… and even lives—has been transformed into something you can’t hold: your children’s personal data and your private information.¹

The castles that peasants would bow down to yesterday didn’t disappear.

They reinvented themselves as corporations built to drain you dry.

And the ancient kings—whose bloodlines have ruled far longer than history wants to admit—once reigned behind the titles of millionaires who hid behind politicians… but now they are billionaires with politicians hiding behind them.

They don’t even disguise it anymore.

And the lifestyle everyone longs for—the rich and famous life—the one people dream about but most people can’t touch… how are they affording it?

Through meticulous research, I can prove what you and I and everyone already knew—but so much more—that we, the people… you, me, humanity, animals, Earth… are paying the price once again.

SECTION 7 — WHAT WE ALREADY HAVE (EXPERTS + BACKGROUND, WITHOUT NAMES)

I also want to think resistance members who have already been helping, we have people who do all sorts of things. Some people bring information to me, some people have apparently gone out of their way to slow ice down, I’m not saying that it’s been approved by the resistance but I am saying that they’ve contacted us afterwards and told us that they were saving people. I’m not condoning any actions at this point in time I’m just explaining some of the things that people have done.

Of course some of the other people I’m working with—and who are aligned with The Resistance—include experts across serious fields: biomechanics, quantum engineering, quantum physics, rocket engineering, and more.

Some of them may appear on the show later.

But we are not naming anyone yet.

First, we get through the foundation—the nitty-gritty—so the context is solid before the specialists step in.

And yes: I have family ties that run through the military, the police force, NASA, and projects most people would call “hidden” or classified.

I’m not using that to flex.

I’m saying it because it shaped what I noticed, what I questioned, and how seriously I take verification.

SECTION 8 — WHY I’M DOING THIS (PERSONAL)

I want to be careful here: this isn’t a show about me.

But I also need you to understand I’m not just riffing online.

I’m a business and economics student—slaying a 4.0 GPA while working, living and supporting my own life. Ive had small amounts of help from family, thankfully but not much. And I help my family too, so it was never a one way street.

I’m not saying that to brag—I’m saying it so you understand what kind of rigorous work I’m used to doing.

The easiest math course in this track is calculus—and the pipeline beyond that is heavy.

The equations and models in economics, accounting, micro/macro—this is intense work.

And none of that makes me better than anyone.

We need experts in every field.

I have a lot to learn from you, too.

I’ve published books.

I’m an ordained minister.¹

I take responsibility seriously.

And I’ve lived both ends of the world.

Here’s the real reason I’m doing this.

I didn’t have a hero growing up—and it’s not because the people around me were “bad people.”

It’s because they were preoccupied: surviving, struggling, working, exhausted, overwhelmed, trapped inside systems they didn’t choose.

That doesn’t excuse harm, and it doesn’t mean everyone should be forgiven.

I don’t even speak to some people because of what was done to me.

But I do my best to forgive and move forward for everyone’s sake—because if I don’t, I stay hurt, and hurt people hurt people.

I grew up watching what happens when kids don’t have protection, clarity, or someone who teaches them how the world actually works.

And I’m going to say something plainly, because it matters:

I’ve lived through abuse as a child—physical, emotional, mental, sexual, and financial.

I’m not saying that for sympathy.

I’m saying it because it changes how you see people, how you see power, and how you see the cost of silence.

And it’s one of the reasons I take protecting people seriously.

Because there are children right now who need someone to show up.

And I want you to hear this clearly: I’m not the only one who can do that.

You can too.

This is your beginning too.

I was homeless as a small child—around drugs, weapons, instability.

I know what it looks like to sleep under a bridge at a young age.

And I’ve also dated someone so wealthy that when I asked how many rooms were in the house he grew up in, he honestly didn’t know.

So I don’t have a side.

I’ve seen what systems do to people at the bottom.

And I’ve seen how detached reality can become at the top.

I have loved, and I have lost.

I’ve had people who were supposed to love me turn their backs on me at some point in time.

But I’m here—thriving—and ready to show the world that no matter what you’re given at birth, you can still build something real.

Like I said, from homeless to I’ve published four books, and I’m working on more.

I’ve sold homes worth over a million dollars in Los Angeles County.

I’ve run large corporate chains with hundreds of employees, outperformed, and promoted quickly.

I’m an ordained minister through the Universal Life Church—a church that believes people across religions carry truths, and I also believe religion has been used against people throughout history.

I’ve also made mistakes, and I’ve been so broke I needed social welfare programs to survive.

I’m not saying any of this to make myself sound important.

I’m just a normal guy.

Sure, parts of me might be weird to you, and there are things you do that would probably be weird to me.

I didn’t get great grades in high school or middle school.

I emancipated at 14, and I still got myself to school so I could graduate—unlike many people in my family line before me.

I’ve hit some of the highest peaks in life and some of the lowest downfalls.

I’m not perfect and I never will be.

But I will not steal from people, lie to people, or cheat anyone.

That’s my moral compass.

I’m saying all this because I take responsibility seriously, and I’ve built my life around education, service, and using my voice with purpose.

That’s why I’m doing this: not to posture—but because I refuse to stop believing in humanity.

I want a world where a child can have a hero, a dream, and a home with a warm meal.

Also—real talk—if I come off like an asshole once in a while, I apologize.

I’m working on being the best version of myself, and it’s not always easy surrounded by so much hate in the world.

SECTION 9 — THE WARNING WITHOUT FEAR-MONGERING

I figured out long before this moment what’s been going on with Israel, the drones, Elon Musk, his brother, his child, Donald Trump, His family, the government, the way money and technology move when the public isn’t watching.

And I hate to say it… but we’re all in danger—especially the children.

This isn’t fear-mongering.

It’s the fact that the world is shifting fast—and patterns get louder right before they break.

And I want the opposite of fear.

I’m trying to take the world’s craziest information—information most people don’t even want to admit exists—and break it down in the most easily digestible way possible.

Not to entertain you more than the truth.

SECTION 10 — “WORLD WAR” TALK (MY FRAME) + WHY I SAID IT LAST YEAR

Last year I warned that we were on the brink of what most people would call World War III.

But I personally believe this is a continuation of World War II—like a long limbo that never truly ended, it just changed uniforms and methods.

And here’s why I’m saying that now:

Because in the last couple weeks, multiple governments have publicly warned about escalation with the United States—or condemned U.S. actions as unlawful, destabilizing, or a violation of international order.¹²³

This doesn’t mean war is guaranteed.

It means the temperature is rising, and the world is saying it out loud.

SECTION 11 — MONTAGE: “THE WORLD IS SAYING IT” (CLIPS + ARTICLES)

SECTION 12 — LIVES AT STAKE (URGENCY, WITHOUT HYSTERIA)

Now let’s talk about urgency—without hysteria.

Across the world right now, real people are dying, real communities are collapsing, and escalation is not theoretical.

In Gaza, the UN has published ongoing humanitarian situation updates that include reported casualty totals about 70,000.¹

In Ukraine, the UN human rights monitoring mission continues to track verified civilian casualties tens of thousands 46,000 to 100,000 soldiers, Russian military casualties are also in the near hundred thousand estimated, with many more civilians in a city killed on the ground. ²

In Sudan, the World Health Organization has warned about escalating attacks on health care.³

I’m not saying this to scare you.

I’m saying this because if you want to call yourself informed, you have to face what’s real.

So here’s a moment—right now—for everyone already lost.

And here’s the point:

If we don’t build a culture of truth, verification, protection, and compassion, the future gets decided by the people who profit from chaos.

That’s what The Resistance exists to stop

Section 12 Sources:

¹ Gaza (UN/OCHA citing Gaza MoH) — “about 70,000”

² Ukraine (UN/OHCHR/HRMMU verified civilian casualties) — “tens of thousands”

³ Sudan (WHO on attacks hitting health + civilians)

(Optional but useful) Russian losses reference for my “near 100,000” line

SECTION 13 — WHAT THIS MOVEMENT REQUIRES (INNER → OUTER)

This is about changing people from the inside out.

Starting with the man in the mirror—myself—and moving outward.

Nobody is special in the sense of “privileges.”

Everyone is special in the sense of “human value.”

But no one gets special treatment unless they earn trust through action and integrity.

The only true revolution comes after an evolution.

And the last time humanity truly evolved, in my opinion, was when compassion expanded.

That’s the upgrade we need now: compassion plus competence.

We prepare—just in case.

But we do not promote violence; we promote vigilance.

We do not promote hate; we promote help.

We do not promote making the enemy lose; we promote showing people love—even when they don’t deserve it.

But if someone is in danger… we will do whatever it takes to protect them.

So don’t try us.

SECTION 14 — PARTICIPATION (SUGGESTIONS + EXPERT INVITE)

If there’s anything you want me to talk about on this podcast, I’m open to suggestions and recommendations.

If you want to be part of The Resistance, there are many ways to help.

And if you are an expert in any field—science, medicine, law, economics, engineering, history, technology, ethics—reach out.

I’m especially looking for experts who can help the public understand complex reality without ego and without cruelty.

Because education should be powerful—but it should also be humane.

SECTION 15 — HOW TO FOLLOW THIS PROJECT (FORMATS + BOOKS)

Here’s how this is going to work so no one gets left behind:

Every episode will be available in multiple formats:

Video, if you want the full visual experience.

Audio podcast, if you want to listen while living your life.

A full written transcript posted underneath so you can read it for free.

And eventually, each season will become a book—so the entire timeline can live in physical form, chaptered and organized.

Because the truth shouldn’t be locked behind one format.

The truth should be accessible to us all.

Everybody wants a revolution.

But it won’t come until we have an evolution.

And that’s what The Resistance is.

Welcome to The Resistance, Hero.
