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.

    We Can Totally Acknowledge Our Mistakes and Pivot

    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).

Let’s honor other humans accordingly • Dani attends her local city council meeting • On banning AirBnB and Vrbo from Santa Fe and everywhere • AirBnB is destroying all the rental markets and community safety • DEI advocates are the ones profiting off of rental hikes • We CAN roll back our mistakes • Culture plays victim to AI and unchecked technological innovation and it’s a lie • The Feminine is sorely missing from the technological conversation/push • The Santa Fe obelisk drama • Yay for Leftist mobs taking it upon themselves to erase history • The way you do one thing is the way you do everything • Censoring the obelisk situation • Propaganda deconstruction of Irresistible • The mockery of single-use plastic product placement
