Lansing’s Giant Pumpkins Take Center Stage | Lansing News
Sep 10, 20262 min
Downtown Lansing just got a seasonal upgrade with four giant, bright orange pumpkins installed in the heart of the traffic circle—think oversized jack-o-lanterns replacing the usual holiday red balls. Funded by private donations and placed by city crews, these eye-catching decorations will stay until October’s end, after which they’ll make way for the iconic Big Red Balls in a festive swap complete with live music and dancers. A fun, community-driven nod to autumn—and a perfect photo op before the holidays roll in. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.

Michigan Hockey Players Sue Over Alleged Hazing | Lansing News
Sep 10, 20262 min
Sixteen former Michigan hockey players are suing the university, alleging decades of horrific hazing—including forced genital shaving, simulated sex, and threats of assault—under the watch of a coaching staff that allegedly turned a blind eye. The plaintiffs seek compensation and systemic reform, while the school calls the claims “disturbing but misleading,” citing its 1982 anti-hazing policy and arguing it’s not liable for behavior from over 30 years ago.

Michigan’s early winter may be here sooner than expected, with frost possibly hitting the southern Lower Peninsula as early as October and the Upper Peninsula by mid-September. While measurable snow is still forecast for November across most of the state, lake-effect snow could bring flakes earlier in some areas due to warmer Great Lakes waters. Climate patterns like El Niño may also push for a warmer, drier season — but don’t count on it. Stay weather-ready as winter’s chill creeps in.

Columbus Day vs Indigenous Peoples' Day | Lansing News
Sep 10, 20261 min
This weekend in Michigan, Columbus Day and Indigenous Peoples’ Day collide — a powerful reminder of America’s fractured history. While Columbus Day honors the explorer who sparked European colonization, Indigenous Peoples’ Day centers Native resilience and acknowledges centuries of stolen lands, forced displacement, and cultural erasure. Emerging in the late 80s, this alternative observance challenges us to rewrite the narrative — not just for history books, but for how we remember who we are as a nation.

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.
