What FanDuel Knew about Me- Sports Betting Addiction and the Data
Aug 25, 202611 minS0
<p>Ninety-five percent of the losses in the sports betting industry come from five percent of the people betting. The apps know exactly who that five percent is, in real time, the same way a casino used to need hours to spot a player in trouble. I was in that five percent for years, and once I crossed a certain threshold, I got a personal host, tickets to events, and offers that arrived like clockwork right after a deposit failed. I self-excluded from the platform after everything collapsed. Within the last thirty days, I still received promotional emails trying to...

What I Did to My Wife's Name- When Wire Fraud Reaches Your Family
Aug 19, 202613 minS0
<p>I put my wife's name on a company that was committing fraud, and she had no idea it existed. She never saw an invoice, never touched a check, never signed a single document. Her name was on the formation paperwork because I put it there, on purpose, so the whole scheme would have a layer of cover I needed and she never agreed to carry. Eventually, that company was investigated by the FBI. So was she, for over a year, for something she had no knowledge of and no part in. This episode is about that specific decision, why...

Nine Thousand, One Hundred Dollars- What a Gambling Addiction Actually Costs
Aug 12, 202623 minS0
<p>I had a deposition at nine the next morning, the kind where the preparation has to be airtight. My outline was finished and sitting on the desk. I opened a gambling app anyway. By midnight I was up nine thousand one hundred dollars. By 2:48 in the morning I had lost every bit of it, including money that was supposed to cover my mortgage the next day and money that didn’t belong to me. This episode walks through that night hour by hour because I think it's the clearest single window into how addiction actually operates once it's taken ho...

Writing From The Inside- The Podcast
Aug 11, 202611 minS0
<p>I spent over a decade as a trial lawyer, negotiating settlements worth more than a hundred million dollars for people who'd been hurt by companies that should have known better. I also gambled away everything I built, wagering over eleven million dollars over two years, and eventually committed federal crimes to keep it funded. I pleaded guilty to wire fraud and money laundering, and by the time you're hearing some of these episodes, I'll likely already be in federal prison. This show is my honest account of how that happened, told one specific story at a time, without skipping...
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.
