Dive into the tumultuous era of the Rif War, a brutal conflict between 1921 and 1926 that marked a dark chapter in colonial history. This five-year struggle was not only a desperate attempt by Spain to assert control over a territory in North Africa granted to them by France, but it was also a catastrophic venture that left a deep scar on all parties involved—the Spanish, the French, and the Rifian people. With over forty thousand Spanish casualties and a nation left humiliated, the war set the stage for the fall of Alfonso XIII, civil unrest, and the rise of Franco. Meanwhile, the French Republic, entangled in its own colonial ambitions in Morocco, faced eighteen thousand casualties. The conflict sparked widespread outrage among the French left and served as a catalyst for anti-colonial movements that would echo for decades. Ultimately, the valiant resistance led by Abd El-Krim’s Republic of the Rif was crushed by a formidable opposing force, numbering nearly half a million troops, equipped with tanks and aircraft. The use of chemical weapons against civilian populations further darkened this already grim narrative. Interestingly, during the war, Spain and France signed the Geneva Protocol to prohibit chemical weapons—though the treaty would not take effect until 1928. It’s a poignant reminder of the moral complexities of war. This gripping account is narrated by Alister, based on the observations of Walter Burton Harris, a British correspondent for The Times who had deep ties to Morocco since 1887.

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.
