Show Notes
Dani had a toxic shock syndrome scare, and she’s sharing the whole story so it never happens to you!!! Plus, the question all over our feeds this week: should Christians celebrate Halloween? 🎃
After weeks of UTI symptoms, two rounds of antibiotics and six OB offices that couldn’t see her, the answer was hiding in plain sight: a forgotten tampon. We talk the signs of TSS to watch for and why her doctor said this happens all the time.
Plus: Dani finally got Jordan doing cardio at a HYROX-style class at Shed in Nashville, his Function Health heart results, and the two-degree pivots that changed his life. Then we get into the Christian Halloween debate, witchcraft on Etsy (yes, really), and whether skipping trick-or-treating has gotten a little performative.
Jordan breaks down Empire of the Summer Moon, the story of Cynthia Ann Parker and Quanah Parker, and why Columbus Day vs. Indigenous Peoples’ Day is grayer than anyone wants it to be. We swap book recs (Angel Down and Whale Fall by Daniel Kraus) and talk about the book-to-movie adaptations Hollywood actually got right.
And finally, the F-Factor lawsuit. We talk about Tanya Zuckerbrot’s settlement with Emily Gellis, why Jordan thinks it sets a new precedent for online defamation, and what it means for hate accounts and anonymous posts on Reddit.
In this episode:
• Dani’s toxic shock scare and the forgotten tampon
• Jordan’s first cardio era (and his VO2 max)
• Should Christians celebrate Halloween?
• Empire of the Summer Moon and Indigenous Peoples’ Day
• Angel Down, Whale Fall and the best book-to-movie adaptations
• The F-Factor lawsuit and what it means for online haters
This episode is conversation, not medical advice. If something feels off, call your doctor!!

More from De-Influenced with Dani + Jordan
Carl and Laura Lentz join Jordan for an honest conversation about marriage, infidelity, forgiveness, and what it really takes to rebuild trust after betrayal.
This week on De-Influenced, we're getting into a little bit of everything, starting with the internet having some THOUGHTS about our new house. Dani reads some of the comments surrounding a recent home update, and we get into the bigger conversation about influencer culture, money, and why people are so frustrated with what they see online.
This week on De-Influenced, Dani and Jordan are going down a few rabbit holes you won't see coming. Jordan shares why he backed out of Peter Thiel's secret Antichrist lecture after discovering where it was being held (hint: the Freemasons are involved 👀). They get into AI, spiritual warfare, and some pretty wild theories about where technology could be taking us.
This week, Dani and Jordan are questioning whether being too unfiltered on the podcast is finally catching up with them. Jordan issues an apology after his Alix Earle/Braxton Berrios “source” turns out to be… not so reliable, and they get into the weird reality of sharing honest opinions when the people you’re talking about might actually hear them.
Can you really have it all — the career, the family, the marriage, the dreams…all at the same
