They wanted to create spaces where people could slow down, speak honestly, and remember that they weren’t alone. After hosting dozens and dozens of dinners with over 1000 people and counting), Jess wrote a book called The Table Where We Meet which was released into the world this week and you must run, not walk, to go get your copy today.

Roger Waters & Mona Miari: Comfortably Numb Re-Imagined
Jun 18, 20261h 7m
❤️ If you love the podcast and benefit from it, ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠please consider joining our Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ . 🎉 It’s Roger Waters & Mona Miari week on the podcast! 🇵🇸 ⁠ On June 12, 2026, the legendary Roger Waters and acclaimed Palestinian musician Mona Miari release a re-imagined version of the iconic song Comfortably Numb, 47 years after the original was released, with new Arabic verses that transform the Pink Floyd classic into a powerful battlecry to bring global attention to the continued genocide in Gaza. This new interpretation amplifies the song’s original message of rejecting extreme alienation and apathy and brings in new Arabic arrangements and melodies that evoke feelings of resistance and solidarity—themes that are increasingly relevant to the genocidal Israeli war waged against the Palestinian People. Comfortably Numb in 2026 is a direct response to the genocide in Gaza and affirms solidarity with the oppressed in Palestine and beyond. The project centers the responsibility of artists to reflect the world around them and to speak openly about injustice, humanity, and collective suffering. It demands an end to silence. 🎧 Listen to Comfortably Numb Re-imagined 📺 Watch Comfortably Numb Re-imagined 🔥 Learn more here ! ---------------- ✊🏽 Join the Let’s Give A Damn community on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ! 👕 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Buy some of our merch⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ! 🔥 Follow Let’s Give A Damn on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ , ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Twitter⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ , and ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Youtube⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ . ✉️ Sign up for our weekly ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Substack⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ . 📱 Reach out anytime: hello@letsgiveadamn.com. ❤️ Have an amazing week, friends!

FAQs

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.
