Samantha, was one of Daniel's managers, and doubling as an extremely controversial figure in the Daniel Larson community. She started off as a TikTok micro-celebrity who made troll posts, one of her videos going viral in which she tried to say that eating meat was apparently rooted in racism. She was claimed to be 14 years old during this time, although this cannot be confirmed. Afterwards, she became one of Daniel's managers, so trusted by Daniel that Samantha was in control of Daniel's Instagram and TikTok accounts during her tenure.

Infamously, while under the moniker of Goldberg Shacklestein, an antisemitic caricature, she introduced Daniel to antisemitism which he still shows traits of to this day.

Samantha is also the creator of "STD Soaps" a brand of soaps she had sold on Etsy themed after STD's, AID's, period blood, and other unpleasant bodily fluids and diseases. While being Daniel's manager, she was also known for getting Daniel into contact with another notable troll/manager, Jared. What is interesting to note is that Daniel is not the only one Samantha had managed or had an influence over, as Samantha is known for constantly associating herself with autistic or mentally impaired individuals so they can advertise her Etsy shop among other things. To promote her soap shop, Samantha and Jared even yelled and screamed at World of T-Shirts to make videos regarding it.

Samantha's tenure as Daniel's manager, despite her significant influence on his actions and statements, was relatively brief, beginning in August 2021 and concluding around December of the same year, although specific dates are difficult to ascertain. Allegedly, after Samantha had confronted Daniel about his pedophilia, specifically his alleged possession of inappropriate images of children, she was fired.

Samantha's place in Daniel's history is hard to find considering a lack of archiving and preservation, but this page attempts to piece together what is left.

Prologue

Samantha originally started out as a TikTok micro-celebrity, making troll posts about political and racial topics, however her account has since been banned. Later she branched out to Daniel Larson content on a now-deleted TikTok account named DanielLarsonTimes, which was active in late August of 2021 to presumably October of that same year.

On her account, Samantha frequently posted video updates about Daniel. A particularly notable and controversial aspect was a now-deleted (and possibly lost) video where she was talking to Daniel during his stay in a psychiatric hospital, which lasted a few days to a week, beginning on October 13, 2021. The exact reason for his admission to the facility remains unknown. However, what stands out about this phone call is that it didn't take place over Daniel's usual phone, which he presumably didn't have access to, but rather via a hospital phone. This detail highlighted the close relationship between him and Samantha. This was immediately questioned by people in the Subreddit, causing outcry among multiple people, worried if Daniel was in contact with a troll or a manipulator. In a post named, "Larson and the mental hospital. A message to the Larsonists," a member voiced their concerns about Samantha, referring to her as Sabbath, and how she managed Daniel and his affairs.

“ Don’t be worried folks. It’s likely that mr. larson will only be admitted for a few days to a week. You do not really stay in a psychiatric ward for a long time from what i’ve heard.

As the leader of the Larson Purists, I do have a message to managers and larsonists though. I don’t know the full details, But you are likely the reason he ended up here. Leave daniel alone. He will always make tiktoks, it’s just the way he is. Stop getting involved in his personal life. Sabbath clearly was telling daniel fucked up shit to say on the “sexydaniellarson” account. If you watch the videos, it’s almost like daniel had a hard time saying that shit. Please for the love of god, just stay tuned and leave the man alone. No contact from the internet, good or bad, will help him. He needs to live without you fucking losers “managing” and texting his every move. I hope you see where he just ended up and feel fucking bad. You are the reason he is here right now.

”

Samantha on the DanielLarsonTimes account denying being his manager.

Later on, this account was discovered to be Samantha’s. When this was revealed, she started to delete multiple videos before eventually deleting the account all together. However, when people began to speculate that she was Daniel's manager, she resorted to insulting commenters while denying the accusations. The reason for Samantha hiding her identity is unknown.

e claims is unclear. Shortly after this, Samantha stopped concealing her role as Daniel's manager and publicly acknowledged it in the following weeks. In a subsequent interview with a user from the subreddit, she explained her motivation for becoming Daniel's manager: she aimed to distance him from his previous managers to help and protect him.

Impact and Effect on Daniel

One may only speculate Samantha's actual feelings in regards to Daniel. At the start of her time as Daniel's manager, her intentions are believed to have been benevolent. She did well-intended deeds to help Daniel and his situation, such as giving him money to buy McDonald's, and trying to help him build healthy life habits. She is also said to have gifted Daniel clothes on at least one occasion, although under the guise of them supposedly being designer. At one point, Samantha had bought clothes for Daniel and mailed them to him through a PO box, gifting him a pair of shoes, two pink t-shirts, and a pair of pants.

However, her efforts to help him ceased when Samantha realized that Daniel was beyond saving, and even when given the ample opportunity to receive help and support, Daniel refused to take it. Samantha helping Daniel is corroborated by multiple posts on the Reddit, although the reasoning for her trolling him and making him post offensive things is unclear.

“ All I can really say about Sabbath is that I really don't talk to her much. I did message her when I was told she's Daniels knew "manager" which she quickly turned down the word "manager" and instead explained shes taking a gentle approach to things and that shes not trying to be Daniels Manager at all. She doesn't contact him everyday she doesn't force him to talk to her or force him to do anything. She agrees that Daniel does not need manager. She is just making sure that Daniel is not making poor decisions online, which you all know he's very likely of doing. I have no clue why she deleted her videos on her account but i assume it's because of what people were saying under her posts. ”

The many options of soaps Samantha has to offer!

Samantha is allegedly a Nazi, although this is most likely not true. Samantha convinced Daniel to believe in the antisemitic rhetoric of figures such as Adolf Hitler. Furthermore, she had created the character known as Goldberg Shacklestein, manipulating Daniel into believing that the offensive caricature was real and was coming to get him. This, in the end, worked. Before her being his manager, Daniel had not exhibited any behaviour of potentially hating Jewish people, but even after her firing, he still showed it in some aspects of his life.

Something to note about Samantha is that in almost all of her usernames, there is a constant theme of STDs. Samantha, at one point, got Daniel to advertise her, "STD soaps," which was the name of a shop she ran on Etsy, presumably to get Daniels fans to buy her products. This Etsy shop, even though no longer selling products, sold different soaps and hygeine products that were themed after items that most people would not ever put near their bodies, such as soap themed after period blood, cigerette ash, and AID's fungal deoderent.

Samantha's time as Daniel's manager was marked with a distinct tinge of paranoia, during which she had Daniel say and do increasingly bigoted and dangerous things. She also manipulated Daniel by acting as a potential love interest to him, which explains videos in which he can be seen talking about her breasts. At one point, Samantha stole a portion of the money Daniel had been making from live streams to put it into crypto, she also defrauded him. In a TikTok made on November 1, 2021, Daniel talks about this, at the very end he once again says the n-word.

Interview with u/Temporary_Night_6809

A user of the Daniel Larson Subreddit by the name of u/Temporary_Night_6809 conducted an interview with Samantha on November 8, 2021. They later posted a paraphrased version of their conversation onto Reddit, titling the post, "MY INTERVIEW WITH SABBATH‼️‼️‼️"

“ BREAKING NEWS: sabbathstd edition. I was just on a discord call with the one and only sabbathstd as many of you know her as. In case you don’t know she is the Samantha Daniel talks about. And after talking to her I got a good idea of her side of the story. And I think we should all listen to it with an open mind. Sabbath tells me the reason she wanted to be Daniels manager was to take him from the mangers before. The mangers who sent him to cali. And got him to expose himself. She actually wanted to protect him. She also told me it was completely untrue that she has social security number. And completely untrue that she has ever stolen from him. She tells me she has actually sympathized for Daniel had acess to all his cash apps BUT he blows all his money on bitcoin. She claims Daniel would complain about needed clothes and food and he still wasted his money on bitcoin. She says she has even sent Daniel her own personal money for McDonald’s and he wasted it. She says she genuinely tried to help him. And she even tried to mail Daniel clothes thru a PO Box. But Daniel refused. She also had tried to help him with things like personal hygiene and food habits. But Daniel wouldn’t do it. I asked her about the people she doxxed. She claims she didn’t doxx people so she could have Daniel to herself. She only did it because of personal beef which is unrelated. After hearing her side of everything. I think she kinda gets a lot of hate for no reason. It’s unreasonable. She also told me she is 5’5 and 102 pounds. Which is not obese. She also does not have acess to his cash app at all ”

Many things can be taken away from this interview, most notably the corroboration of claims that Samantha had sent Daniel money for food (which he instead wasted on unrelated items). What's also notable is Samantha's reasoning for wanting to be Daniel's manager. Here, she claimed to have wanted to 'protect' him from the prior managers who'd convinced Daniel to expose himself in the past, who she is referring to is most likely Flexburger. In the interview, Samantha had also dispelled rumors that were floating around at the time. These rumors included her access to things such as his Social Security info or Cash App, that she was obese, that she had stolen from him, and that she had doxxed anyone so she could keep Daniel to herself (but she never denied that she'd doxxed people in the past).

The validity of these claims is debatable, but it is plausible that Samantha did try to help Daniel, only for him to blow her off.

The user who conducted this interview claimed that they had contact with Samantha, who told him that she'd had access to Daniel's phone at one point. In it she alleged to have found child porn.

“ I knew sabbath personally a long time ago and she said she had remote control of his phone at one point and he apparently had child porn. ”

They also firmly believe that Samantha did indeed want to help Daniel during the start of her managing him, which is somewhat believable.

“ People have tried to help him including Samantha. He refuses to listen to anyone or help himself. Everytime he gets money he blows it on stocks or crypto. He refuses to learn how to make food for himself or bathe. He also refuses to get himself help. Believe me when I saw of all the trolls Samantha is not the worst. And she’s tried to help him build healthy habits, but he refuses to listen. She’s sent him money for McDonald’s and food in general and he just wasted on Coca Cola stock ”

Firing

The reason for Samantha’s firing is not entirely clear, although it can be inferred from various comments and videos Daniel himself has made.

What is known is that Samantha was in fact fired twice. Samantha was initially fired following Daniel making a TikTok wherein he exposed her for stealing his money and using it to invest in Ethereum along with other cryptocurrencies, which in the interview covered above, she refuted. However, she was later re-hired, presumably under a different name. This name is theorized to be Sabbath, but it is unclear.

YouTube community posts threatening Samantha and Jarred.

During the end of her career as Daniel's manager, Samantha at one point asked Daniel about the information Flexburger had leaked in regard to Daniel's extensive history of being inappropriate towards children. This line of questioning led to her eventual firing. She could have also asked about the supposed 'child porn' on his devices, but once again, it is unclear. Whatever the specific question may have been, it is known that Samantha asked Daniel something about his pedophilia, thus resulting in her firing and removal from Daniels management. Not long after her firing, Daniel started a livestream on TikTok in which he called her the n-word. Daniel was the one who fired Samantha, as she did not leave on her own accord or for other reasons.

This is corroborated by u/Temporary_Night_6809, who is an arguably verifiable source as he had contact with her during this time. He'd made a comment on Reddit regarding the reason of Samantha's firing, which reads as follows.

“ Although I don’t doubt he has some sort weird pedo attraction to kids I have no doubt that flex or other managers have instigated him to be into kids for trolling or funny content. If you remember when sabbath (Samantha) was fired the reason was she called him out in the cp and he got mad. ”

Samantha was not well liked in the community due to her bigotry, so as soon as her firing came to light, she was immediately doxxed, which resulted in her parents receiving messages that informed them about their daughter's involvement with Daniel. This caused her to remove herself from every facet of Daniel's life, even deleting her own Reddit account.

Following her doxxing, Samantha has not come back and shows no signs of doing so, much like another infamous figure in the Daniel Larson Lore, Anti Chloe, although Samantha is not nearly as innocent. This does not mean that Samantha will stay gone forever.

However, in June 2023, Daniel mentioned Samantha out of the blue on his YouTube community tab, declaring that he'd burn her house down, also threatening to murder Jarred, who had presumably worked alongside Samantha during the time in which she was his manager.
