The Origin of The Dark Studio

The creator of the Strategic Intelligence Asset and the mysterious Dark Studio is Brandon Richey. Brandon’s specialized background served to be a unique foundation for eventually leading to the creation of The Dark Studio. As an investigative writer, objective philosopher, and historical macro-analyst, his past professional tenure as an independent enterprise and human performance specialist served as the perfect formula for feeding the creative path for the inception of The Dark Studio.

Brandon’s career as a business owner and human performance specialist spans over a 20+ year career that aimed to transform the culture of the industry through eccentric behavioral frameworks. His philosophical approach has always hinged on the belief that one’s intellectual and psychological fitness was the central primer and necessary prerequisite in the developmental journey of achieving an operational zenith state. As a reformed Christian that recommitted himself to deep study and a lifestyle overhaul to better serve his Lord and Savior, Jesus, in recent years he found new discipline and purpose for this journey in a fallen world.

Due to the environmental demands associated within his industry pursuits, Brandon was able to easily read the pulse of the cultural and political landscape. Due to the unique societal positioning involved with the industry demands associated with his efforts to facilitate and elevate the cognitive fitness tied to corporate and individual endeavors, he was a firsthand witness to the steady devolution occurring across the corporate, cultural, and educational landscape.

Much of the concerns he had involving the steadfast devolution of society culminated to a concerning level with the pandemic as it impacted his business and personal life directly. Like many Americans throughout society, he witnessed the widespread damage the unlawful and unconstitutional lockdowns wrought on society including the businesses of many colleagues and friends throughout his industry.

During the pandemic he witnessed a direct assault on multiple businesses, but particularly the fitness and performance industry at large, which served as a major societal red flag to him given his knowledge of health and the benefits of optimizing mental and physical performance.

In Brandon’s observation of society, the time period spanning over the past 15 years (with the exception of the years between 2016-2020) reflected an accelerated number of problems, along with a steady escalation of more and more governmental bureaucracy, serving as the catalyst to centralize more control over the citizen populace.

Given his background knowledge of history and philosophy, the manifestation of this trend was a very disturbing reality to witness. He recalls pacing his living room floor many late evenings during the lockdowns probing his mind trying to conjure up a solution as to how to combat the real pandemic involving the infectious spread of Marxist ideology throughout society. It was obvious to Brandon that the pandemic was simply the Trojan Horse that opened the gates to escort and fast track this destructive belief system directly into the American way of life.

During this time, Brandon found himself in a major life struggle entering into a period of deep introspection, study, and deliberation. For over two years he endured his own personal crucible in the wilderness, obsessed with reading, studying many thought leaders, and diving deeper into the lessons of history in order to obtain a more critical understanding involving the state of the world that resulted in the challenges of 2020.

He recalls hearing the great Steve Bannon’s quote involving the late Andrew Breitbart when Andrew stated that “Politics is downstream from culture.”

Brandon interpreted this quote as cutting to the heart of everything. The statement was evident, given the evidence of cultural and societal decay that had shifted in American culture and throughout the rest of the Occident over the past 15-20 years.

After hearing Breitbart’s quote, Brandon made the decision to utilize his knowledge and skills of analytical writing, communication, philosophical application, historical consciousness, business, and health to launch his Substack to begin using his own efforts to directly impact the culture himself.

He made the determination that the only viable path to initiating change was to exercise his agency by driving others to command the same systematic understanding of the world. By elevating operators through the creation of his enigmatic intelligence asset, his curriculum targets the absolute archetypal peak he refers to as Zenith Status. The mysterious apparatus and distinct operational engine that has been responsible for elevating others to that Zenith Status soon became recognized as The Dark Studio.

Richey’s core premise dictates that every citizen sharing this sentiment holds an operational responsibility to engage the culture to systematically dismantle Marxist ideology. Mirroring the strategic architecture of the Sons of Liberty, his curriculum demonstrates that through a disciplined, continuous audit of the cultural and ideological battlefield, individual actors can inject their agency into the socio-political equation at peak Zenith Status. This precise framework is engineered to command dominance and victory within the primary realm of ideas.

Richey has communicated in the past that the entire goal behind the enigmatic engine recognized as The Dark Studio is to elevate the performance of individuals to achieve the confidence of an operational zenith to be relentless warriors across their community, cultural, and corporate landscapes. The central tenet behind the Zenith Status is to possess the civic acumen, historical consciousness, and confidence to engage any authoritarian, captured institution, or corporatocracy and know that one can possess the strategic advantage of delivering a Vae Victis moment rather being on the receiving end of a Vae Victis moment from any of those mentioned rivals.
