Dangerous Rhetoric 123: Kalen Eriksson

For Episode 123, we were joined by Kalen Eriksson, the founder of TriFilm Pictures and former senior creative producer for Project Veritas. Kalen discusses his career trajectory with us, and how he ended up at one of the most controversial and unique undercover journalistic organizations in American history, working closely with its founder, James O'Keefe.

When O'Keefe and the organization parted ways in February 2023, rumors abound of what actually happened and why. This conversation sets the record straight on various claims about what occurred at Project Veritas during Kalen's time there, from both supporters and critics of O'Keefe alike.

Accompanying this interview is a cache of "receipts" backing up Kalen's story and analysis of the situation. This release includes relevant internal communications and a 5+ hour audio recording of the 2/6/23 board of directors meeting that sparked O'Keefe's decision to break with Project Veritas. As Kalen reveals, that meeting, the incident which led to it, and everything which followed was the breaking point of a situation that had been building up for several years.

The file dump also collects together all of the media coverage and remarks by political/social commentators about what happened (most of whom got the story wrong), as well as some BTS photos and videos of Kalen's time at the organization.
