In this Digital Social Hour episode, Sean Kelly sits down with David Nino Rodriguez from Nino’s Corner to discuss boxing, addiction, sobriety, near-death experiences, cartel violence, deep state theories, AI data centers, politics, aliens, faith, Hollywood, generational trauma, and why he believes America is living through a spiritual war. David opens up about the darkest moments of his life, including drinking, drugs, women, violence, and the night he says his throat was slit. He explains how faith helped him stop drinking, why boxing was only one chapter of his story, and how Nino’s Corner grew into a community built around politics, conspiracy, faith, and independent media. The conversation also covers Trump, Obama, Tulsi Gabbard, border violence, Mexico, Candace Owens, TPUSA, AI surveillance, DMT, extraterrestrial theories, Hollywood fame, sobriety, fatherhood, and why David says anyone can change if they choose to turn toward the light.
