Delonte West: “I Started Sabotaging My Happiness” | The Danza Project Ep. 300
2026/10/22
“I started sabotaging my happiness.”
For Episode 300, Delonte West sits down with The Danza Project to talk about the person behind the NBA career, the viral videos, and the headlines.
Delonte opens up about his journey through addiction and homelessness, his faith, and the work he’s doing in recovery. He reflects on losing the structure basketball gave him, wanting to give more than he could afford, and learning to recognize his value beyond the game.
We discuss playing alongside LeBron James and Paul Pierce, the support he describes receiving from the NBA Players Association, and the people who have stayed connected to him through difficult chapters of his life.
There’s plenty of Delonte’s humor and competitive spirit here, too. But one of the most meaningful moments comes when he describes the person he wants his children to know.
Who are you when the thing the world knows you for is no longer your everyday life?
Three hundred episodes have brought us conversations, friendships, and opportunities we couldn’t have imagined when we started. To everyone who has watched, shared, challenged us, or stayed with us along the way: thank you.
This is Episode 300 with Delonte West.

Zul-Qarnain: What I Saw Inside Lil Durk’s Trial | Ep. 299
2026/10/22
What does faith look like when you don’t know how your story will end?
In Episode 299 of The Danza Project, Zul-Qarnain Nantambu shares his account of being inside the courtroom during Lil Durk’s federal murder-for-hire trial—and the moment he saw Durk smiling before the verdict was read.
Zul-Qarnain explains how his relationship with Durk’s father brought him to the courthouse, why he wanted to bring more structure to the support outside and what he believes the public missed about the family’s experience. He discusses Doody Lo’s support, Ye’s presence and the responsibility that comes with reporting on someone fighting for their freedom.
Known for raising a Palestinian and Sudanese flag during Kendrick Lamar’s Super Bowl halftime show, Zul-Qarnain opens up about the faith behind his public actions. He shares how he embraced Islam in Istanbul, his documentary work with Quando Rondo and in Chicago, and his commitment to helping people move away from gang culture.
The conversation also covers his exchanges with Charleston White, Trap Lore Ross, Akademiks and 6ix9ine, including his concerns about how headlines and viral clips shape the way people are judged.
Zul-Qarnain then addresses the Antonio Brown incident, explains why he says he has forgiven him and shares his hope that Brown receives help and healing. His perspective on mercy leads into a conversation about fatherhood, accountability and the example he wants to set for his children.
Asked what he is ultimately working toward, his answer is simple: “I’m chasing paradise.”
Danza sits down with Zul-Qarnain for a conversation about standing beside people through difficult times, choosing forgiveness and finding gratitude even when life doesn’t give you everything you prayed for.
Recorded following Lil Durk’s September 11, 2026 acquittal in the murder-for-hire trial. The conversation also addresses the separate legal proceedings he continued to face.

STACKZ: “My Daughter Saved My Life” — Breaking the Cycle of Childhood Abuse | Ep. 298
2026/10/22
How do you become the father you needed when you never had one yourself?
Before his videos reached millions, STACKZ was working two jobs, sleeping on his mother’s couch and struggling to spend time with his daughter. In Episode 298 of The Danza Project, he opens up about the childhood abuse he lived through, the anger he carried and why he says his daughter saved his life.
STACKZ shares what changed when he turned to faith, accepted support from the people around him and committed to giving his children a different childhood. He also discusses forgiving the man who hurt him and learning what a loving father looks like by becoming one himself.
Known for his fishing videos, iguana encounters and Drinking Around the World series, STACKZ reveals the personal journey behind the entertainment. He explains why he walked away from music after reaching milestones he once dreamed about, how fishing gave him something he genuinely loved and what happened when he stopped shaping himself around an audience.
The conversation also explores the friendships that helped him rebuild, his work with FatAndFunny and Rook, his experiences with UFC and Power Slap, financial advice from Marlon Wayans and the responsibility that comes with turning your personality into a business.
Danza, Kato and Orlando sit down with STACKZ for an honest conversation about childhood, fatherhood, forgiveness, ambition and finding a reason to keep going when the life you want still feels out of reach.
For anyone trying to make sense of their upbringing, start again or build a different life for their family, this conversation is for you.

Kyle Davis: “Miami Pro Broke My Identity, My Soul… Then Rebuilt Me” | The Danza Project Ep. 297
2026/10/21
Kyle Davis, founder and commissioner of Miami Pro League, sits down with Danza for a deeply personal conversation about the 12-year journey behind one of South Florida’s most important basketball platforms.
Before the NBA players, packed gyms, Nike and JD Sports partnerships, viral moments and recognition, Miami Pro League was an idea being built from the ground up by Kyle and the people who believed in his vision.
And it almost failed.
Kyle opens up about betting on himself after becoming frustrated with corporate America, the years Miami Pro operated without turning a real profit, bringing NBA talent into the gym, dealing with gatekeepers, building relationships, losing friendships and relationships along the way, and the obsession required to keep his vision alive.
But the conversation goes much deeper than basketball.
Kyle speaks candidly about losing his mother Carmen to cancer when he was 21, his complicated but powerful relationship with his father, heartbreak, fatherhood, grief, ambition and the personal price he paid while building Miami Pro.
“Miami Pro has broken my identity. It’s broken my soul. But it’s also rebuilt me.”
Now, 12 years into the journey, Kyle explains why success means something completely different to him than it once did and what he wants Miami Pro League to become long after he steps away.
From a garage conversation in 2014 to building a platform for NBA professionals, overseas players, elite high school prospects and the Miami basketball community, this is the story behind Miami Pro League and the man who refused to let the idea die.

2026/10/21
JR Writer and Hell Rell sit down for an honest conversation about the current division within Dipset, their relationships with Cam’ron, Jim Jones and Juelz Santana, and why they refused to choose sides in other grown men’s disagreements.
The two Diplomats also discuss rebuilding their careers without chasing the spotlight, gaining ownership of their music, unreleased diss records, competing against each other in the studio and reuniting for their new collaborative album, Double Trouble.
From Lil Wayne and Michael Vick stories to surviving bad deals and earning respect without becoming the biggest names in the group, JR Writer and Hell Rell prove that staying out of the drama never meant stepping away from the legacy.

Ray Daniels FIRES BACK at Charlamagne Tha God Over Jay-Z “Fake News” | Episode 295
2026/10/21
Ray Daniels returns to The Danza Project for Episode 295 and this one goes everywhere.
From working behind the scenes on hit records to becoming one of the loudest voices in music media, Ray breaks down what he’s learned from nearly two decades inside the industry and why he believes the entire game is changing.
Ray talks about building his career alongside songwriter Theron Thomas, his first radio hit with Sean Kingston, working around Justin Timberlake, Timbaland and Pharrell, and what separates the artists who stay great from everyone else.
He also gets into the business and politics behind music, gatekeepers, ownership, building your own audience, why traditional media is losing power and what independent creators need to understand if they want to survive.
The conversation gets even deeper as Ray speaks on Jay-Z, Drake, Charlamagne Tha God, Rick Ross, 50 Cent, Diddy, Kanye West, the economics of streaming, album sales, partnerships and why legacy artists have to move differently in today’s industry.
Ray also opens up about his own journey from working at the airport for $8 an hour to becoming a successful music executive, investing tens of thousands of dollars into his own media company, learning how to hire the right team, overcoming poverty and building something his children can inherit.
This isn’t just a conversation about music. It’s about money, ownership, media, reputation, fatherhood, faith and understanding where the world is headed before everybody else catches up.

Mitchell Chamale Lost His Best Friend, Then Built Combat Night MMA Into 200 Events | Episode 294
2026/10/21
Mitchell Chamale turned a $20,000 gamble into one of Florida’s longest-running MMA promotions, but the road to building Combat Night MMA came with losses far bigger than money.
In Episode 294 of The Danza Project, Mitchell sits down with Danza to tell the full story behind Combat Night MMA. From growing up in Polk County, wrestling, college cheerleading and eventually becoming a professional fighter, to putting his savings on the line and building a fight promotion alongside his best friend and co-founder, the late UFC fighter Josh Samman.
Mitchell opens up about losing Josh at a pivotal moment in their journey, becoming a father just months later, and ultimately deciding to keep pushing forward with the company they started together.
He also breaks down the business behind MMA that fans rarely see: promoting nearly 200 events, losing money to keep Combat Night alive during the pandemic, developing future UFC talent, sponsorships, social media, fighter-first promotion, the difference between talented fighters and future champions, and why it took nearly a decade before he truly felt Combat Night had made it.
Mitchell also discusses his own fighting career, entrepreneurship, family, recovery, training at 41, and the mentality that's kept him building for more than a decade.
From fighter to promoter. From tragedy to legacy. This is the story behind Combat Night MMA.

Tonio Skits: He Flatlined, Learned to Walk Again & Built an Empire Online | Episode 293
2026/08/10
Tonio Skits joins The Danza Project for Episode 293 for one of his most personal conversations yet.
Long before millions of people knew Tonio as a creator, entertainer and entrepreneur, his life was shaped by loss, survival and moments that could have completely broken him.
Tonio opens up about losing his mother at just 15 years old, being forced to grow up fast, and the devastating accident that nearly ended his life. After shattering his T3 and T4 vertebrae, Tonio was airlifted to the hospital, placed on life support and says he flatlined during surgery. He was diagnosed as paraplegic, but against the odds, eventually got back on his feet and walked out of the hospital.
But surviving is only part of the story.
We get into how heartbreak unexpectedly helped create Tonio Skits, his rise during the Vine era, building an audience of millions, transitioning from viral content into acting and business, navigating Hollywood, fatherhood, relationships, faith, money and what success actually means after you've already been given another chance at life.
This isn't just the story of how Tonio survived.
It's the story of who he became afterward.
