      Interesting premise.

      As far as the logline goes, you’ve used 6 words simply to describe the protagonist. Any way to shorten this? I think by adding “lying” you potentially ruin the hero’s credibility. As a character flaw, it’s not a bad one, but in this scenario as soon as he’s telling the truth his arc is complete. That probably happens at the end of act I.

      I would consider amending “his radio station and its parent media corporation” to something like “the TV networks”. If aliens control his radio station then why would they let his show air? You could easily set it up though that the aliens don’t view radio as a threat so they focus on TV.

      It’s a really long inciting incident. At 32 words it really does need to be shortened. The changes above should help.

      As far as the goal goes, I’d maybe switch if from “expose them for who they are” to something like “reveal the truth to mankind in order to free them”. I personally find it easier to imagine how a DJ could use his skills and experience to reveal the truth via pirate radio shows etc. I find it harder to imagine how he would expose the aliens. This is a really difficult one for me to try and explain as they are basically the same thing but I feel like relating his goal to his skills AND making the goal more centred on how he’s influencing mankind (given that the premise centres on mind control) is stronger than focusing on what he could do to the aliens. I hope that makes some sense… I’m not sure haha.

      Hope this helps.

      “When he discovers that the owner of his radio station is an alien bent on world?domination, a disgraced conspiracy theorist must convince his audience he is telling the truth, before the earth is enslaved by extraterrestrials.”
