Your iPhone, your Android, your smarty-smart-smart phone isn’t just a phone or a map or a camera — it’s a pre-hacked surveillance device. And Palantir, the CIA’s favorite data-mining beast, is quietly weaving together a new AI-powered control grid to track, predict, and police us all.
In this explosive conversation, I sit down with Hakeem Anwar, CEO of Above Phone, to expose how Big Tech and federal agencies are merging into a unified surveillance state — and more importantly, how we can opt out.
We dig into:
• Palantir’s secretive rise from CIA seed money to global surveillance empire
• Why mainstream phones are designed as digital prisons
• The hidden traps baked into everyday apps (yes, even your PDF reader)
• How to reclaim your privacy with open-source tools and Above Phone
• The spiritual + practical path to tech sovereignty in an age of AI panopticons
If you’ve ever wondered how deep the surveillance rabbit hole goes — and how to escape it — this one’s a must-listen.

What if the stories you're telling about your life are the very things keeping you stuck?
In this solo romp, Dani dives into the cultural obsession with turning every challenge into an identity, every hardship into a personality trait, and every inconvenience into a lifelong narrative.
From celebrity memoirs and workplace culture to beauty, aging, language, and the filler words we use every day without thinking, Dani explores how stories become beliefs, beliefs become identities, and identities become self-fulfilling prophecies.
You'll learn why beauty has nothing to do with appearance, why victimhood is so seductive, how language functions like programming code, and why our unconscious use of the word "my" may be tethering us to more hardships and suckiness than we realize.
If you've ever wondered whether you're living your life—or living a story about your life—this episode is for you.

“Status Correction + the Citizenship Trap with Daniel Mentz”
Daniel Mentz of Sacred Honor Educational Fellowship returns to the podcast for a mind-bending conversation about status correction, natural law, lawful remedy, and the hidden legal architecture most people never realize they’re operating inside.
We unpack the confusion clouding the sovereignty space, the difference between natural law and statutory systems, how identity and consent function inside modern governance, and why so many people feel trapped in systems they never knowingly agreed to.
If you’ve ever wondered:
• What is status correction?
• What is natural law?
• Are we interacting with legal fictions?
• Why does the system feel rigged?
• And how do we reclaim agency inside it?
…this episode is for you.

Hiya, lovelies.
My latest podcast with the Sacred Honor Educational Fellowship team dropped today, and it's a must-watch for anyone wanting to understand the difference between operating in the private vs. the public, and how it is we end up consenting to slavey bullshit that we think we're immune to.

It takes a village, Superstars. Thank you for being my village!
