THE PODCAST Ep. 8 / Irritable Me

(Sorry for the late upload. We’ve been recording at night.)

Sextia N’eight (@sextianeight) is a no-show. We call her to find out what happened. Jake Williams (@BrightSunFilms) gets on the phone to discuss the new season of Another Dirty Room. Rick (facebook.com/TheRickSerra)  and I listen to a Dr. Phil clip in the WHAT KIND OF PEOPLE ARE THESE segment. 

THE PODCAST Ep. 7 / DADDY-O-FIVE

(This episode of THE PODCAST is offensive yet so funny. Just a heads-up.)

Sextia N’eight talks about losing her wallet during a Grindr hookup. We listen to YouTube trash Daddy-0-Five abuse their kids, their apology and the first video of their comeback. Rick reads the rest of the gay erotica story that was cut-off during episode 6. This is our wildest show yet! 

We love you guys! Enjoy! 

THE PODCAST Ep. 6 THIS IS AMERICA

(Just a warning...this is an offensive episode!)

We discuss Nicole Arbour’s disgusting “parody” of Childish Gambino’s brilliant THIS IS AMERICA video. Rick reads gay porn and gets cut off by a recording mistake. Do we bring it back on Friday lol?? Let us know! Thanks for listening everyone! 

THE PODCAST Ep. 5 / Ghosts and Psychics

Rick returns from his camping trip and shares some truly creepy EVP’s. We listen to a horrifying story about one of Rick’s criminal friends. Our “WHAT KIND OF PEOPLE ARE THESE?!” focuses on Sylvia Browne doing an interview. 

1 hour 38 minutes

THE PODCAST Ep. 4 : THE END OF NICOLE ARBOUR

Sextia N’eight and I roast YouTube tart Nicole Arbour after our little Twitter spat. Enjoy!

(Rick returns on Friday!)

THE PODCAST Ep. 3

Rick is on vacation so Sextia N’eight (@sextianeight) co-hosts. We talk about her career as a mortician, her taxidermy skills and being a Baltimore drag queen. Later on we dissect idiot Nicole Arbour’s latest video “Why Depression is all in Your Head”. It’s a wild ride. Not for the kiddies! 

I want to say thank you and welcome to all of our new Patrons! Hope everyone enjoys the show! 

THE PODCAST Ep. 2 : Mackenzie Marie is a Retch

Rick, Jake (@brightsunfilms) and myself lambast YouTube brat Mackenzie Marie’s “Harassed at Disneyland” video. Rick does the news but can’t find his glasses. I discuss the new Patreon tiers and sponsorship opportunities for businesses. 

THE PODCAST EP. 1 DEBUT

On this episode, Rick and I discuss how we met. I call @JustinWainioArt and bitch him out for getting me sick. We talk to @BrightSunFIlms about our ADR partnership. I complain about the sound of the show due to a defective board. 

PODCAST DEBUTS FRIDAY!

A new video and Podcast #1 both debut on Friday. Podcast Ep. 1 is free for everyone. I hired a sound engineer to set up for us so we don’t run into any hiccups. The show is going to sound spectacular. 

I can’t wait you guys! Hope everyone is doing great!

PODCAST STARTS NEXT WEEK!

Hey everyone. I’ve finally scraped the money together and purchased all the equipment we need to begin our podcast. It’s going to sound like perfection which is important. I didn’t want some ramshackle broadcast with room echo and rick breathing. The equipment is a mix of new and used. The sound will be radio quality. I wouldn’t have it any other way. 

So excited to start the show. The first two episodes are free and will be released to YouTube. After that, the show is Patreon sub...

She’s gone...

We attended a lovely seder dinner this evening. Everyone said a prayer for Karma. After dinner we drove her to our vet and let her go. Not easy, but I’m glad it’s over. She was a lot to take care of. I adopted her when she was two and had her for 16 years. (According to the vet, it’s possible she was upwards of 20 years old. We found an old vet chart from 1998 that may of been from her first check-up.) Anyway, she had a great life and I’m glad she’s at peace now. 

Thank you all ...

Dead Mall Series Ep. Update

My 18 year old dog is ill again. She’s not doing well. I spent all day yesterday taking care of her. She has horrible runs and can’t stand up to evacuate which means bath after bath. I was up all night trying to get her to drink. It’s been very difficult. If she doesn’t bounce back by tomorrow, it may be time to let her go. I’ll let you know what happens.

The new video is done-ish. I would of had it out tonight but had to deal with this. I know I’m always saying this day and that d...

Shopping with Rick Ep 2 is now up!

I hope you guys enjoy this one! We had a blast shooting it! 

(Please don’t share the link. It’s unlisted until Wednesday!)

I have a real fire in my belly....

I want to apologize to all of you. I have been in a funk for months. I should of put out more material but I was just bogged down. I don’t know how the last Leakin Park doc even got made but somehow I mustered through. I’ve had a lot of losses this past year and it took it’s toll on my mental health. Even though I hate needing Patreon, somehow it keeps me going because I don’t want to disappoint any of you. Something has really changed with me in the last week. It’s big. 

I’m ...

Another Dirty Room Season 2 is in the works + PODCAST

Hello everyone! 

I’m going to be sharing this here first. ADR is coming back but with some changes. Our co-star Will is leaving the show. We have already cast his replacement and will be filming in NY state in May. I am really looking forward to this new season. It’ll be our best ever. We have some real doozies on the list. Hopefully we don’t find any fingers! 

In other news, DAN BELL : THE PODCAST is happening. Rick will be co-hosting with me. It’s a 90 minute show eve...

I need some decompression time

Thank you all so much for your support. Here is the link to the recut doc. I hope it raises awareness and someone comes forward with information that helps solve the crime. 

ADR returns next Friday. You’ll see it on Wednesday or Thursday.

Naturally...

After I finished the doc and watched it a couple of times, I went back and edit it even more. Plus, the BCPD returned with some information about the case. Nothing startling because there isn’t much to go on. Anyway, a slightly different version will be released tomorrow. 

Thank you all so much for helping me make these films. I’m not letting this case slip through the cracks. 

-Dan

NEW DOC LIVE / UPLOADING NOW

Guys, 23 days of shooting, editing, working with my composers and sound partner, dealing with the BCPD ignoring my requests for info, trudging through Leakin Park filming every horrible thing imaginable...

But it’s complete. The video is still uploading and processing so keep checking the link. 

PLEASE KEEP THE LINK SECRET. Do not share on social media. It’s pubic release is tomorrow at 5pm. This is a preview just for you! 

I really couldn’t do this witho...

Need a little bit more time

I’m combing through the new doc one more time to make sure everything is right. It will be released here later this evening. Probably very late. 

I’m sorry for the delay. Once you see this thing you’ll understand. I hate to toot my own horn but it’s unbelievable. Let me finish.

Premiere this coming Wednesday for Patreon supporters...

My new documentary, Leakin Park : The Murder of Vashon Kamal Conyers Ep. 1 premieres Friday 2/23 at 5pm ET. Patreon donors get early access beginning on 2/21 at 5pm ET. This series will be ongoing as more facts come to light. You won’t want to miss this!

Sorry for taking so long to release something. I really went deep on this project. I think you’re all going to find it very interesting. 

See you on Wednesday. (For real this time! Promise!)

Update and YES...video very soon...for real this time...

I am SO SORRY for not releasing a video. I have been juggling ten pins with one hand lately and it’s been eating away at my editing schedule. However, I’ll let you in on why. Firstly, I’m officially in talks right now to develop a show for television. There have been some very promising developments with these discussions but it’s early in the process and who knows where it will go. I’ll keep you all updated on that. (Let’s try to keep this....shhhhhh) 

As of the last week, I ...

Dead Mall Episode Preview This Weekend

Hi everyone!

The latest Dead Mall Series episode will be released for early preview this weekend. It won’t be available to the public until next week. Just giving a heads up. I have been swamped here trying to sort out some production scheduling for upcoming shoots and preparing new material for Amazon. 

Next month will have a lot more stuff being released. I’ll keep pushing ahead! 

Until then... 

-Dan

New Video

I created this video last night because I knew I wouldn’t be finished with the new Dead Mall Series video and I wanted to get something up for everyone. Rick is on fire in this! I think you’ll all very much enjoy. 

The latest Dead Mall Series episode should be available to all Patrons by Wednesday. Sorry for the delay! Just taking a bit longer than I expected. 

-Dan

Exclusives on the way...

Hey everyone! Hope you’re all doing groovy!

I am currently working on a new Dead Mall Series episode that I hope to be finished with editing by Thursday so all of you can get the first look on it. I’ll keep plugging away.

I have some new stuff coming for all of you. First, I’m releasing a night visit to Uplands that I shot a couple of weeks ago with Rick. I’m not releasing this to YouTube. Instead, it’ll be edited together with my previous visit and released on Amazon as a prop...

From Here on Out....

All videos on the ThisIsDanBell channel* will be released to Patrons two to three days before they’re available to the general public and a week or more before they become available on Amazon. I’ve been trying to figure out a good reward system and I think all of you will be very happy with this. 

Also, the serial killer documentary that I began shooting here in Baltimore has hit some roadblocks. Some participants are asking for fees to access important locations that I need for the s...

ADR moving from YouTube to Amazon! All Patrons will view first with Exclusive Link!

This is an announcement on my FB page. All Patreon supporters will see the show in a private link for free. I will send it out as soon as the shows have been edited. Hope you’re all having a wonderful holiday! 

“...From this point forward, all future episodes of Another Dirty Room will debut on Amazon Prime exclusively. My media partner and Amazon’s appreciation for excellent content have made this decision an easy one. Look for new, uncensored and absolutely disgusting e...

Great news!

Some of you may have received word that Patreon was going to start charging you a service fee on top of your monthly donations. There was a huge outcry from the community here and Patreon has decided to put their terrible idea to rest. 

I was literally panicked for the past couple of weeks since I heard about it because honestly, none of you should have to pay a damn service fee on top of your monthly support for creators. Such a stupid, idiotic idea. They spun the whole thing like it was...

Thank you!

I would like to say hello and thank you to all of my new patrons! I really appreciate your support. Expect the new documentary around late January - early February. Lots of interviews have to be schedule and arranged. We’re on it! Until then...

New Venture / New Benefits

Seasons Greeting to all of my supporters! I can’t thank you enough for your continued support. I really do appreciate it. 

I’m making an announcement tomorrow on YouTube / FB / IG / and Twitter regarding an upcoming series of videos I’m going to be producing and releasing as rentals/purchases on a streaming service. All Patrons who have donated 5 dollars and up, (even if you’ve been donating $1 a month for five months, you’re included) will be able to view these projects free of...

Rewards Update and What’s Next

Hello Supporters. 

Due to YouTube’s latest algorithm changes and decreased ad revenue for my channel, I’m going to have to discontinue the monthly photograph rewards. With the amount of donors who receive prints every month, a large portion of money we need to produce the shows is going towards lab costs, stamps, mailers and paying someone to put everything together. I just can’t do it anymore...but I want to do something.

I’m going to sit down soon and come up with some new...
