Walk On: The Athletic FC's Liverpool show
Does City’s verdict make Klopp’s Liverpool even greater?
Sep 28, 202645 min
James Pearce and Andy Jones join Tony Evans to discuss whether Manchester City’s guilty verdict changes how we view Liverpool’s title battles over the years between the two clubs. Does it make Liverpool’s achievements under Klopp even more impressive — and should clubs potentially be entitled to compensation? Attentions soon turn to Liverpool’s new sporting director Julian Ward and what he needs to sort out at the club, plus we check in on the latest international action (and injuries!) and hear from the non-league clubs taking part in our international-break assignment.

How has Iraola done so far?
Sep 21, 202651 min
James Pearce and Andy Jones join Tony Evans to assess Liverpool’s start to the season, praise the improvements at the back and ask whether the attack is still searching for its rhythm. Liverpool head into the international break with a win at Bournemouth and three successive Premier League clean sheets — but just how good has Iraola’s start been? The guys give the head coach an early grade and look at what’s happening across the rest of the Premier League. And with three weeks without Liverpool, the lads are each given a non-league club to follow — Bootle FC, South Liverpool FC and Marine AFC — as we go in search of some football during the international break.

Who should start in midfield at Bournemouth?
Sep 17, 202645 min
James Pearce & Simon Hughes join Tony Evans to look ahead to Liverpool’s trip to Bournemouth and ask what we learnt from the youngsters’ impressive display against Tottenham in the Carabao Cup. Dominik Szoboszlai produced a stunning strike against Spurs, but should he be playing as a No.10 instead of Florian Wirtz? Alexis Mac Allister has been excellent in recent games, while Trey Nyoni impressed in midweek — so who should make up Liverpool’s midfield three at Bournemouth? The guys also discuss Andoni Iraola’s return to his former club, whether Sunday’s game carries extra significance before the international break, and what Liverpool’s League Cup win means for their squad depth.

Can Wirtz, Gravenberch & Szoboszlai play in the same midfield?
Sep 14, 202651 min
James Pearce & Andy Jones join Tony Evans to dissect Saturday’s frustrating 0-0 draw with Fulham and the growing concerns over Liverpool’s midfield balance. Dominik Szoboszlai, Ryan Gravenberch and Florian Wirtz struggled to control the game at Anfield, with Liverpool looking much better after Alexis Mac Allister was introduced. Can those three players work in the same midfield, and has Liverpool’s decision not to sign a midfielder this summer left Andoni Iraola with a problem to solve? We also discuss whether Trey Nyoni should be given a run in the team, the worrying situation at left-back, and James Milner’s return to Liverpool as part of Iraola’s coaching staff. Plus, we look ahead to Tuesday night’s Carabao Cup clash with Tottenham. Should Iraola take the competition seriously, and could it be the perfect opportunity for Nyoni and some of Liverpool’s fringe players to make their case? Want to get in touch with your thoughts?

Mac Allister delivers after contract demand
Sep 10, 202643 min
James Pearce & Simon Hughes join Tony Evans to reflect on Liverpool’s dramatic Champions League victory over Atletico Madrid — a fifth consecutive win against Spanish opposition in Europe. Alexis Mac Allister stole the headlines with a stunning winner, just days after revealing he was left “very sad” by Liverpool’s decision not to offer him a new contract. Was this the perfect response, and should the club now reconsider his situation? We also discuss Ronald Araujo’s impressive start at right-back, the growing understanding between Alexander Isak, Florian Wirtz and Bradley Barcola, and whether Liverpool’s midfield is beginning to look like a strength rather than a weakness. And with Fulham next up at Anfield, we look ahead to Saturday’s Premier League clash and the latest team news. Want to get in touch with your thoughts?

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.
