Daniel Ryan Spalding

Daniel Ryan Spalding is a Canadian comedian and social media influencer known for his outspoken support for Israel despite having no Jewish or Israeli roots. Residing in Berlin for several years, he formed close friendships with many Israelis, which deepened his connection to the country. Spalding has publicly advocated for Israel, particularly following the rise of anti-Semitism and propaganda against the nation after the events of October 7. He has transformed his personal experiences, including significant weight loss and overcoming alcoholism, into a platform for promoting pro-Israel messages while engaging in stand-up comedy. Spalding's recent news presence stems from his active efforts to support Israeli families affected by conflict and to combat anti-Israel narratives.
