Episode #188
The Future of Xbox: McDonald's Rewards and Digital Ownership
Aug 31, 20261h 50m
Send us Fan Mail Two hours of wheelspins. A retro Call of Duty campaign that still hits harder than most modern shooters. And a week of news where Xbox turns up with McDonald’s UK rewards, IKEA gaming cushions, and a proper attempt to bridge physical discs with digital ownership. If you like your gaming chat grounded in what people actually play and how they actually live, we’ve got you. We start with what we’ve been playing and why we keep drifting back to “comfy slippers” games when time is tight. Stephen revisits Call of Duty World at War for its gritty World War II atmosphere, then surprises himself by finishing Watch Dogs and finding its hacking and surveillance story more relevant in today’s AI and tracking-heavy world. We also talk about when games lose us, from Darksiders boredom to Planet Crafter’s cryptic progression, and why good guidance is not a dirty word. From there we jump into the good stuff: the Gears E-Day beta and how co-op design can feel fresh again, plus Stuart’s deep dive into Forza Horizon 6 as a living, breathing social platform complete with auctions, community creations, and an absolutely ridiculous wheelspin marathon. Then it’s Gamescom highlights, the PS3 price spikes, and the bigger question hanging over everything: are we buying games or renting licences? Hit subscribe for more weekly gaming talk, share this with a mate who still loves older games, and leave us a review with the one game you always return to when you just want to switch off.

Episode #187
Sony Refuses to Ditch Physical Games
Aug 9, 20261h 49m
Send us Fan Mail Your favourite hobby should not feel like a luxury purchase, yet that is exactly where console gaming in the UK seems to be heading. We start with the fun stuff: what we are playing right now, why going back to Final Fantasy X still lands emotionally, and how the PlayStation Portal can actually shine when your home network is set up well. We also talk about the pull of older games, the reality that some classics have not aged gracefully, and why sometimes you just want comfort gaming rather than the newest shiny release. Then we jump into Halo Combat Evolved rebuilt in Unreal Engine 5, including the nostalgia hit, the gorgeous presentation, and the part nobody warned us about: the difficulty spikes, especially in the new missions. We chat about sales across platforms, what Halo on PS5 could mean for the future, and why we still crave something genuinely new from the franchise, not just another remaster. From there, it is full obsession mode with Forza Horizon 6. We break down the wheel spin grind, skill point farming, car mastery loops, and the oddly satisfying logic of turning time into credits, credits into cars, and cars into more wheel spins. If you have ever chased achievements, tried to “complete” a car list, or felt the pull of one more run, you will recognise yourself. We finish with big industry stories: Xbox Series X and Series S price rises in the UK, the wider tech cost squeeze driven by the AI arms race, Sony refusing to budge on ending PlayStation physical discs, and the worrying push towards adverts in games. We also dig into the rumoured Xbox disc-to-digital feature as a possible compromise for ownership in a digital-only future. If you care about Game Pass, PlayStation Plus, physical media, resale value, and what the PS6 era might cost, this one is for you. Subscribe, share the episode with a mate, and leave us a review so more gamers can find the show.

Episode #186
Xbox Layoffs, Halo Cancelled, Game Pass In Crisis?
Jul 19, 20261h 38m
Send us Fan Mail Watch our First Plays and streams on YouTube - https://linkly.link/2dG8W A single crash shouldn’t be able to erase a week of progress, but that’s exactly what pushes us into a proper rant about Forza Horizon 6. We go from happily “mopping up” online races, rivals, seasonal challenges and car photos to the kind of save sync rollback that makes you question the whole idea of always-online progression. If you’ve ever chased a clean lap, a three-star speed trap, or that one last achievement, you’ll understand why this one stings. From there, we zoom out to the bigger picture of subscription gaming. Game Pass still shines when it puts weird and wonderful games in front of you, and we’ve got a stack of examples: Junkster’s charming platforming and building puzzles, Quarantine Zone’s Papers, Please-style infection checkpoint with brutally final choices, and Moss delivering that rare cosy platformer energy where two hours disappear in a blink. We also talk first-hour, no-commentary uploads for games like Doom DLC and Assassin’s Creed Black Flag, plus why we’re considering showing gameplay footage on the video version of the pod. Then it’s news time: Xbox layoffs and fan backlash, a reported Halo multiplayer cancellation, GameStop shrugging at physical game discs, and Bethesda teasing Fallout 3 and Fallout New Vegas remasters while Fallout 5 sits on the horizon. We round it out with the latest PS Plus catalogue additions including Rise of the Ronin and Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora, and the real question underneath it all: which subscription model actually respects your time and money? If you enjoy the show, subscribe, share it with a mate, and leave us a review. Do you want the video version to keep our faces on screen, switch to gameplay footage, or mix both?

Easy Mode Is Not Cheating If It Keeps Games Fun
Jul 4, 20261h 38m
Send us Fan Mail Earn Microsoft Points to spend on Games - https://linkly.link/2gVsi A lighthouse keeper searching for his son, a LEGO Gotham that feels oddly like Arkham, and a game that literally asks you to dig a hole until you hit the surprise at the bottom. That’s the kind of week we’ve had, and it turns into a bigger chat about why “chill gaming” matters when life is busy, hot, and your free time comes in 20-minute slices. We talk about Fortnite’s latest chapter and the reality of streaming when tech decides to betray you. Then we get into what’s actually worth your time: 007 First Light as a standout modern James Bond game with proper set pieces, smart stealth, gadgets, and combat that makes you think, even if the hand-to-hand balance can feel brutal. LEGO Batman gets a lot of love, too, not just for the humour but for the open-world structure, co-op-friendly design, and the way it weaves movie moments into something that still feels fresh. There’s a big Forza Horizon 6 “mop-up” session as well: clearing races, hunting XP boards, chasing speed zones, and finding that sweet spot between relaxing progress and full-on frustration. We also shout out Will Follow The Light for its calm, spooky puzzle-walking-sim vibe, and we admit A Game About Digging A Hole is far more addictive than it has any right to be, especially as an easy Game Pass-style palate cleanser. The mailbag question hits home: is dropping games to easy mode cheating, or just sensible? From there, we tackle the bigger gaming industry news: reports about Sony moving away from physical discs, GTA 6 going digital-first and the money it could pull in, Call of Duty Modern Warfare 4 not landing on Game Pass day one, and worrying signs around Xbox restructuring and layoffs. We end on the big one: should PlayStation and Xbox embrace PC ports and a more open future, or are we heading into a more expensive, locked-down era? Subscribe, share the episode with a mate, and leave us a review if you want more honest gaming chat like this. Where do you stand on easy mode and digital-only games?

AR Gaming Glasses To Xbox Showcase Highlights
Jun 19, 20261h 38m
Send us Fan Mail Earn Microsoft Points to spend on Games - https://linkly.link/2gVsi AR glasses that put a “TV” in front of your eyes sound like sci-fi nonsense until you try to picture them on a flight, on a train, or in a hotel room with a handheld. We talk through the ROG X-Real glasses, how they connect over USB-C, what surprised us about using them, and why this kind of portable gaming tech is starting to feel genuinely practical. We also get nerdy about the home setup side, docking a handheld into a proper capture and streaming chain with HDMI switching and a 4K capture card. Game chat is stacked this week. Lego Batman lands as a real joy, with Arkham-flavoured combat, stealth, brilliant voice work, and that “one more objective” pull after the credits. Forza Horizon 6 remains the perfect comfort game for clearing maps, chasing seasonal rewards, and zoning out in the best way. We also check back in on the James Bond game, where the stealth and set pieces sing, but the scraps can be punishing, and we make the case for a photo mode because the visuals deserve it. Plus: Junkster arrives on Game Pass and completely wins us over with comic-book levels, clever building and an adorable robot lead. Then we get serious. We recap the big showcase moments and pivot into the tougher headlines: Lunar Abyss layoffs, rumoured Microsoft studio shutdowns, and what all this means for the future of Xbox and exclusivity. If you care about Game Pass, Xbox hardware, and where the industry is heading, there is a lot to chew on here. Subscribe for more, share the episode with a mate, and leave us a review: what game or piece of kit has surprised you most this year?

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.
