Episode #14
Niche Obsessions: How Watch Collecting, JDM Culture and Formula 1 All Lead to the Same Place
Mar 12, 20261h 3mS4
Nick sits down with Blake Buettner... editor, watch journalist, host of The Deep Track podcast, and as it turns out, a diehard motorsport fan who's been into cars since living in Japan in the early 90s. The two have been meaning to do this for nearly a decade. This is the episode where it finally happens. They get into what the watch world and the racing world share... the JDM roots that shaped both of their tastes, why the most interesting sponsorship moments in Formula 1 are the unplanned ones, and what it would actually look like if Nike took over a race team's livery program. There's also a detour through the Fast and Furious, Felipe Massa wearing a Richard Mille under his glove, Cadillac's Panda Dunks, and whether the new hybrid formula is actually as bad as everyone says. If you love the sport and you love the culture around it, this one's for you. Find Blake at www.thedeeptrack.com and @thedeeptrack on Instagram.

George Russell Is Princess Peach: Our 2026 F1 Mario Kart Season Preview
Mar 6, 20261h 3mS4
We're back, and we might disappear on you again just as fast. Nick, Todd, and Rohit return from an extended hiatus to make sense of the most chaotic F1 season in recent memory. With entirely new cars, new engines, new teams, a new broadcaster (Apple TV, baby!), and a grid that looks nothing like it did a year ago, there's no better time to dust off the mic. The guys debate whether the 2025 season (and Lando's championship) even felt real without the podcast to back it up, what the switch to Apple TV means for the sport's growth, and whether Drive to Survive still matters now that the actual racing is more dramatic than any producer could dream up. Plus: the nightmare fuel that is 2026 race starts, Aston Martin's historically bad car, the eternal question of Fernando Alonso's retirement, and a deep dive into which F1 drivers map onto Mario Kart characters. Hot takes, season predictions, and the return of Rohit's puns. Tread lightly, listener, for every review you leave, that's one more episode we're doing this season. 00:00 – We're back (maybe) 01:03 – Lando won... did it feel real without the pod? 04:00 – The F1 Movie: Where does it land on the Rush scale? 10:04 – Show format changes & the future of ExhaustNotes 11:21 – Drive to Survive: does it still matter in 2026? 13:45 – Apple TV takes over F1 broadcasting 17:13 – Would a Drive to Survive-style show work for other motorsports? 22:00 – Aston Martin blood magic & Lawrence Stroll sacrifices 24:03 – 2026 race starts explained (it's going to be chaos) 29:25 – RIP Yuki on the grid / his San Francisco farewell tour 31:32 – The season ahead: new cars, new teams, new everything 39:05 – F1 drivers as Mario Kart characters 🍄 45:10 – Cadillac, Alpine, Audi & the mid-table power rankings 51:41 – Constructors & Drivers Championship predictions 57:18 – Rookie watch & dark horse picks 1:00:54 – How many drivers will win a race in 2026?

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?
That is our Enterprise tier. Contact our sales team and we will build a custom plan with volume pricing, a dedicated account manager, and SLA guarantees.
