From Federal Prosecutor to Historical Fiction: The Unfiltered Truth with Joe Wearmouth⚖️| Ep#208
Oct 2, 20261h 21m
In this episode of Coffee with Bearded Bad Dad, host Ricky sits down with former federal prosecutor and special assistant U.S. attorney turned historical author, Joe Wearmouth. Joe shares his incredible journey of leaving a prestigious, "soul-crushing" legal career behind to follow his true passion: writing powerful historical fiction. We dive deep into his debut novel, Rising Suns, exploring 1760s revolutionary Boston and the real reasons behind the colonists' outrage. Along the way, we draw striking parallels to our modern world in 2026—tackling government surveillance, the rise of Flock cameras, AI data privacy, and the dangerous shift away from local community accountability to corporate overreach. Are we voluntarily trading our liberties for a false sense of security? Find out in this captivating, wide-ranging conversation.

"They are openly lying to us on a daily basis." In this incredibly candid interview, "Loose Change" filmmaker Korey Rowe sits down to discuss the first 10 years of the new millennium—and how it shaped the world we live in today. Korey opens up about the extreme polarization of media, experiencing early "cancel culture," and dealing with targeted attacks from mainstream networks like Opie & Anthony. We also talk about life after the military, navigating Adlerian psychology for trauma, building a self-reliant lifestyle, and running a successful legal cannabis business in upstate New York. This is a face-to-face conversation down the middle that you won't see on the news. If you're tired of the social media cesspool and want real, authentic dialogue, hit that subscribe button!

Aug 7, 20261h 39m
Is America actively falling, or are we secretly solidifying our spot at the very top? In this episode of the Coffee with Bearded Bad Dad, host I sit down with 20-year Army veteran and former Congressional candidate Matt Hasty for an unfiltered, wide-ranging discussion on the harsh realities of modern American life, politics, and faith. From the deceptive nature of campaign fundraising and how social media creates dangerous echo chambers, to the hidden grand strategies surrounding Iran, Russia, and China, Matt breaks down the global chessboard with raw honesty. We also dive deep into why a nation needs true civic virtue to survive, the breakdown of our educational system, and how stepping away from core spiritual values has led to a society ruled entirely by emotion rather than logic. Whether you agree with his "hot takes" or not, this long-form conversation provides a masterclass in challenging the status quo and pursuing absolute truth.

In this episode of Coffee with Bearded Bad Dad, I sit down with author Dr. Joel Rakow to discuss his political evolution and his new book, Life in Woke America: A Family Story. The Truth and Betrayal Under Fire. A third-generation Democrat who spent 50 years in the party, Dr. Rakow explains the pivotal moments that led him to walk away, anchoring his decision in the core erosion of individual constitutional values.The conversation expands into a deep dive into modern propaganda, the weaponization of the legal system, and real-world inspirations behind his political thriller—including a controversial secret laboratory discovery in California. Dr. Rakow also previews his upcoming AI-driven tool, the Liberty Index, which scores public figures and institutions on their actual alignment with the U.S. Constitution. From shifting global alliances to the future of American manufacturing and the limits of artificial intelligence, this wide-ranging discussion challenges mainstream narratives and explores what it takes to preserve faith, family, and freedom in a rapidly changing world.Connect with Dr. Joel RakowWebsite: https://www.lifeinwokeamerica.com/The Book: https://a.co/d/0dSgafeB#Politics #WokeAmerica #LibertyIndex #Podcast #ConstitutionalValues #WalkAway #PoliticalThriller #CurrentEvents #USConstitution #AlternativeMedia #AITechnology
Every question we get asked before someone starts their trial.
If you have a concern about deliverability, AI quality, data privacy, or whether this will actually work for your specific situation, it's probably answered below.
What is the difference between Founder Solo and Founder Pro?
Founder Solo gives you 50 AI pitches per month using the credit model (Standard pitches cost 1 credit, Enriched pitches cost 2). Founder Pro raises that to 200 credits per month and adds full Booking Probability access, unlimited Magic Match, Apollo enrichment credits, and data export capabilities. Both plans use the same credit system, so you can stretch your monthly budget further by using Standard-mode drafting.
How do agency tiers work?
Agency tiers have no base fee. You pay per managed client and per talent profile. Agency Standard is $199 per client per month; Agency Pro is $399 per client per month. Both add $39 per talent profile per month. Your own team's user seats are always free.
What is a talent profile?
A talent profile represents one person (founder, executive, or spokesperson) you are booking onto podcasts. It includes their bio, topics, headshots, and outreach history. Team plans include 5 profiles; agency plans are pay-as-you-go.
Can I switch plans later?
Yes, at any time. Upgrades take effect immediately; downgrades apply at the end of the current billing period. Contact support if you need help migrating between plan families.
Do you offer a free trial?
Every paid plan includes a 15-day free trial. Your card is saved at signup but you will not be charged until day 16. Cancel any time from your dashboard.
What happens if I cancel?
You keep access until the end of your current billing period. No charges after that. Your data is retained for 30 days in case you reactivate.
Is the 20% annual discount automatic?
Yes. Select Annual on the pricing toggle and the discounted price is applied automatically at checkout. The annual price shown is the full year cost.
What if I have more than 50 profiles or 20 clients?
