Milkdrunk: Cathleen O’Malley Brings a Brutal Comedy About Motherhood to Bethlehem
Sep 25, 202623 minS10
GET MORE AT LVWITHLOVE.COM Cathleen O’Malley is bringing Milkdrunk , her original one-woman show about childbirth, breastfeeding, motherhood and everything messy that comes with it, to Touchstone Theatre in Bethlehem October 7-10. Cathleen joins George Wacker to talk about how her own experience giving birth became the starting point for Milkdrunk , and how documenting the strange, difficult and funny moments of early motherhood eventually turned into a theatrical show. She describes Milkdrunk as a brutal comedy about breastfeeding, but the conversation goes well beyond that. Cathleen talks about using humor to explore some very raw territory, the taboos and expectations surrounding birth and motherhood, and why audiences who may not initially think the show is for them have connected with it. The show premiered Off-Broadway at the United Solo Theatre Festival at Theater Row and has since been performed in Cleveland, Washington, D.C., and at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe. Cathleen also talks about her history with Touchstone Theatre, what it means to return to Bethlehem with this show, and what she hopes audiences take away from Milkdrunk , including a little more curiosity about the caregivers in their own lives and the demands placed on them. Milkdrunk: October 7-10, 2026, at Touchstone Theatre, 321 East 4th Street, Bethlehem, PA. Performances are Wednesday through Friday at 8 p.m. and Saturday at 2 p.m. Tickets: Adults $35; students and seniors $25. Thursday’s performance is Pay-What-You-Will.

Anja Keister and Friends Return to Northampton’s Roxy for a Night of Spooky Burlesque
Sep 19, 202620 minS10
GET MORE AT LVWITHLOVE.COM Anja Keister is bringing burlesque back to Northampton. After D20 Burlesque’s Valentine’s show sold out the Roxy earlier this year, the hometown performer and producer returns with D20 Burlesque’s Spooky Spectacular on Sunday, October 4. Anja joins George Wacker again to talk about how that first Roxy show went and what surprised her about the crowd. People just old enough to attend showed up alongside older couples, longtime friends and guests in their eighties. She calls burlesque “an art form for the masses,” and seeing that range of people in her hometown made the return especially meaningful. The Halloween show builds on what audiences enjoyed in February: burlesque alongside dance, pole performances and flow arts. Chicago performer Red Rum headlines, with Anja hosting and performing. The lineup also includes Caresse Deville, Rosa Darling, Miss Shuggenah, Pixie Styx, Sarah “Chillidawg” DeRemer, Jade Retrograde and Taylor Sweet. Anja also talks about the handmade work behind burlesque, from costumes and choreography to producing a show. She and George discuss why horror and burlesque fit together so well: both know how to build anticipation and give an audience a memorable payoff. D20 Burlesque’s Spooky Spectacular: Sunday, October 4, 2026, at the Roxy Theater, 2004 Main St., Northampton, PA. Doors open at 6:30 p.m. and the show begins at 7 p.m. This is an 18+ event, and IDs will be checked.

An Interview with LV Crime Map Creator Nathan Szydlow
Sep 11, 202619 minS10
GET MORE AT LVWITHLOVE.COM Nathan Szydlow , creator of LV Crime Map , joins the Lehigh Valley with Love Podcast to explain how he built a live incident map for police, fire and EMS dispatches across Lehigh and Northampton counties. Szydlow has been programming since he was 12 and wanted to combine his software-development background with his interest in the Lehigh Valley. The idea for LV Crime Map began while he and his girlfriend were looking for an apartment and grew after he started seeing ambulances responding to incidents around their development. LV Crime Map follows publicly available scanner feeds and uses AI to convert dispatch audio into text, identify locations and place incidents on an interactive map. The conversation covers how the technology works, how the automated map differs from local breaking-news pages and why AI-generated information can sometimes be incomplete or inaccurate. LV Crime Map is an independent informational resource. It is not affiliated with law enforcement and is not an emergency notification system. Always call 911 during an emergency.

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.
