Word Up With Dani Katz
Hosted by author, journalist and 5D word nerd, Dani Katz, WORD UP explores how language is programming our minds, our culture and our world, and – most importantly – how to transform ourselves and society for the infinitely more wonderful with our every word. Empowerment tools abound, along with reframes, upgrades, solutions and propaganda breakdowns, plus a generous smattering of cultural criticism, sprinkled with deep-diving, edge-pushing, solutions-based conversations with original thinkers, visionary weirdos and rebel badasses making the world more wonderful.

Powerhouse, babealicious badass extraordinaire, Polla Pratt joined me on the podcast for a rollicking conversation about somatics, semantics, ozone, awakening and all the things.
Full disclosure: Polla and I recorded this conversation back in October. So grateful for her and your patience while we waited for the just-right moment (aka: now!) to release it.

In this solo podcast, we touch in on the violation of the social construct by way of whimsical masking, the erasing of history by way of socialist protests, the problem that is AirBnB, and the propaganda-fest that is Irresistible (at least, the 4 minutes I could stomach).

Cartoonist and author, Mark Siermaczeski, hopped on the podcast to talk about his new book, Field Guide of the Mind at the End of the World Volume 1.
Note: This conversation was recorded BEFORE the US presidential election, so there was some talk as to how that was all going to shake out. Thank goddess time isn’t linear ‘n all…

Feature film director, Rene Perez, and visionary voluntaryist, David Rodriguez, joined me for a rollicking and illuminating conversation about the propaganda machine that has become (or always was?) the film industry, and their new project – a modern take on Romeo & Juliet called “Sacred Life”.

Shane “The Ruiner” Sedore joined me for a 2025 Q1 State of the Apocalypse report. Shane was my very first Word Up podcast guest, and so I thought it was time to have him back on to look back on some of the predictions he made back in 2022, and give us some feedback as to how we’re navigating clown world, the sham show and global apocalypse.

Inspired by my local meanderings here in northern New Mexico, as well as my recent participation in local governance, this episode features a wide-angle perspective on the demoralization campaign ravaging my city, as well as the world, at large. Lots of propaganda deconstruction, PLUS a Quantum Languaging lesson. Yay!

This solo pod romp takes us down a few various roads, lanes and tributaries, including the continuing chronicles of the weaponization of customer service; consideration in cold pitching; the deleterious downsides of “can’t”, the groupthink cult-mind that’s infecting the health freedom “movement”; and a Hall & Oates lyrical analysis.
