Lucas and Luna sit down with the thick blue volume of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code between them, tracing the threads that connect personal income tax brackets to corporate tax inversions. Each episode examines one specific fiscal lever — the corporate rate, the carried interest loophole, the earned income tax credit — and traces its real-world effects on capital allocation, wage growth, and federal revenue. They avoid partisan shouting matches; instead, they walk through the arithmetic of a tax expenditure, compare it to direct spending, and ask how the burden actually falls. Lucas holds a fountain pen, drawing marginal-rate curves on scrap paper. Luna pushes back with case studies: how Ireland's 12.5% rate reshaped global pharmaceutical supply chains, or how the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act changed buyback behavior. This show is for anyone who reads the Joint Committee on Taxation reports and wants to understand not just what the law says but what it does. No lobbyists, no spin — just

How Tax Loopholes Keep Small Business Cash Flow Stuck
Sep 20, 202612 minS4
We look at the specific mechanics of the Section 179 deduction and how it creates a cash-flow trap for small businesses that expand too fast. Using a concrete example of a manufacturing firm in Ohio, we explain why immediate expensing can actually hurt liquidity when depreciation schedules don't match revenue recognition. We also explore the alternative minimum tax implications for pass-through entities and why some owners are choosing to delay capital expenditures until next year. This is not about avoiding taxes, but about managing the timing of tax liabilities to keep payroll funded. #SmallBusiness #CashFlow #TaxStrategy #Section179 #Depreciation #PassThrough #Accounting #Finance #Economics #BusinessGrowth #Liquidity #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #TaxCode #CorporateFinance #Entrepreneurship #FiscalPolicy #MoneyManagement Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
We explore the structural mechanics of capital gains taxation and how it quietly redistributes wealth among different investor classes. By examining the specific treatment of long-term versus short-term holdings, we reveal why the tax code creates distinct incentives for patient capital. This episode breaks down the real economic impact on portfolio growth, using concrete examples to show how holding periods change your effective tax rate. You will learn why some assets are taxed differently than others and what that means for your financial planning in September 2026. #CapitalGains #TaxPolicy #InvestmentStrategy #WealthManagement #EconomicsPodcast #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #LucasAndLuna #LongTermHolding #ShortTermTrading #TaxEfficiency #PortfolioGrowth #FinancialLiteracy #MarketStructure #PassiveIncome #ActiveTrading #TaxCodeAnalysis #PersonalFinance Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
Lucas and Luna explore how federal tax policy subtly influences daily commuting choices, focusing on the transition from employer-paid transit benefits to taxable fringe benefits. They examine specific IRS rules regarding qualified transportation fringes, highlighting the shift in tax treatment for employer-provided parking versus public transit passes. The conversation details the dollar limits set by the Internal Revenue Service, explaining why many workers now face a hidden tax increase when their companies adjust commuter perks. Through concrete examples of salary structures and benefit elections, the hosts illustrate how small changes in tax code interpretation can alter personal financial planning and urban mobility habits. This episode breaks down the mechanics behind the paycheck deductions that affect millions of commuters every day. #TaxPolicy #Commuting #IRS #FringeBenefits #PublicTransit #Parking #SalaryStructure #Economics #Finance #Business #Carrers #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #LucasAndLuna #TaxCode #EmployerBenefits #UrbanPlanning #FinancialLiteracy Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
This episode dissects the structural inequity facing independent contractors in the modern labor market. We examine how the self-employment tax, a flat fifteen point three percent levy, impacts workers who lack employer-sponsored benefits and retirement matching. Using the specific case of a freelance graphic designer earning fifty thousand dollars annually, we break down the hidden costs of paying both the employee and employer share of Social Security and Medicare. Lucas and Luna explore whether this double burden creates a regressive pressure that disproportionately affects gig workers compared to traditional W-two employees. #SelfEmploymentTax #GigEconomy #FiscalPolicy #IndependentContractors #SocialSecurity #Medicare #TaxEquity #LaborMarket #FreelanceLife #BusinessPodcast #FexingoBusiness #Economics #PersonalFinance #TaxCode #WorkerRights #IncomeInequality #SmallBusiness #FinancialLiteracy Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
How Corporate Tax Breaks Drive Factory Relocations
Sep 15, 20266 minS4
We examine the specific mechanics behind how corporate tax incentives reshape industrial geography, using recent manufacturing shifts in the American Midwest as a case study. Lucas and Luna break down why certain states win bids for new factories while others lose out, focusing on the tangible trade-offs between immediate tax abatements and long-term infrastructure costs. We look at the hidden fiscal realities of these deals, including the 'clawback' provisions that often go unnoticed by voters. This episode clarifies how local governments balance short-term job promises against the erosion of their own tax bases, offering listeners a clearer picture of the economic calculus driving modern industrial policy. #CorporateTax #IndustrialPolicy #FactoryRelocation #StateIncentives #EconomicDevelopment #TaxAbatements #ManufacturingJobs #FiscalPolicy #PublicFinance #MidwestEconomy #ClawbackProvisions #TaxBase #InfrastructureCosts #BusinessSubsidies #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #EconomicsDaily #FinanceNews Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
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.
