Fact Fly: Why Do We Dream?
Aug 13, 202634 min
The Fact Fly's One Big Question Why does your brain run its most powerful, most emotional, most gloriously illogical show every single night — while your body lies completely still? Join Lauren and the Fact Fly (the proud keeper of forty-seven dream field reports, convinced he's been visiting an alternate dimension) as they investigate the mysterious science of dreams. From a real university sleep lab where scientists watch brainwaves spike the moment a dream begins, to a microscopic zoom inside the sleeping brain, this episode reveals why dreams feel so real, why their logic makes perfect sense until you wake up, and why scientists are still genuinely debating what dreams are even for. You'll discover why the emotion center of your brain blazes at full power during REM sleep while the logic center goes nearly dark, how the hippocampus remixes your memories into wild new stories with no one to say "wait, this doesn't make sense," and why a chemical called norepinephrine switching off is the reason your dreams fade within five minutes of waking. Then the Fact Fly explores the three competing theories scientists have been arguing about for decades — the Rehearsal Room, the Memory Remix, and the Static Channel — and finds out that the real answer might be all three at once. Plus: why that falling-and-jolting sensation as you drift off is an ancient tree-sleeping safety reflex, what dream priming can do for nightmares, and why the platypus — of all creatures — has the most dramatic dream life of any animal on Earth. Perfect for curious dreamers, anyone who's ever woken up desperately trying to hold onto a fading story, and anyone who needs to know what an octopus is doing when it flickers through colors in the deep ocean — while fast asleep.

Bedtime Stories: Remi's Most Mysterious Delivery
Aug 4, 202621 min
Lauren's Little Bedtime Stories Remi runs the finest — and only — delivery service in the village of Bramblewood. She has a leather satchel, a very organized notebook, and a perfect record. By late afternoon on a Thursday in October, she has one package left: a small brown parcel addressed to old Mrs. Thistle-Finch at the top of Wren Hill. The only problem is that somewhere between the post office and the bottom of the hill, the package has started making a sound. A faint, steady, impossible-to-explain ticking. A beaver named Mr. Holt has a theory. A crow named Vex has several, each more alarming than the last, and he follows Remi up the hill uninvited to share all of them. Nobody is right. When Mrs. Thistle-Finch finally opens the package in her warm stone cottage at the top of the hill, the ticking stops — and something much better takes its place. Every Lauren's Little Bedtime Story includes:Calming Relaxation: Gentle breathing exercises to help your body relax.Original Bedtime Lullaby: Wind-down time as Lauren sings you to sleep.A Full Original Bedtime Story: A whimsical story read aloud by Lauren.

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.
