TB9, S13, E19 -- 19th Hole: What Comes Next
Aug 18, 202624 min
We went into Season 13 wanting to take a deeper look at divorce, particularly about what comes next when relationships end. Nine episodes later, we've heard some very different answers. On the 19th Hole for this season, we look back at conversations about going through divorce in real time, protecting yourself legally and financially, avoiding the costly mistakes that can make splitting up even harder, building a successful second marriage, and doing the work that can sometimes save the first one. We also talk about anxiety showing up unexpectedly in midlife, watching our kids become adults, finishing the manuscript of our book and one of the ideas that kept surfacing throughout the season: that the end of a relationship doesn't have to define what comes next. Sometimes it's where the real work begins.
TB9, S13, E18 | Author/Educator Eric Saperstein — Divorce Is Expensive. Here's How Not to Make It Worse
Aug 11, 202640 min
Divorce is already expensive, exhausting and painful. You don't have to make it worse. On this episode of The Back 9, author and educator Eric Saperstein shares the lessons from his own three-and-a-half-year high-conflict divorce—and the practical steps that became the foundation of his new book, Simplify the Split. We talk about the mistakes that cost time, money and emotional energy: treating your attorney like a therapist, responding to every angry text, fighting battles that don't need to be won, and giving up on mediation too soon. Eric also explains how he used AI to take the emotion out of difficult communication and why sometimes the smartest response is no response at all.
TB9, S13, E17: NY Times Money Columnist Ron Lieber -- The Price You Pay for College
Aug 4, 202647 min
A four-year college education can cost a family as much as $400,000. But how do you know what you are really buying? This week on The Back 9, we sit down with New York Times personal finance columnist and bestselling author Ron Lieber to discuss one of the biggest financial decisions most families will ever make. As tuition continues to climb and artificial intelligence reshapes the job market, Ron explains why parents and students should look beyond rankings and prestige to evaluate value, financial aid, career opportunities, alumni networks and long-term return on investment. The conversation also explores the reality behind published tuition, why the "sticker price" often isn't the real price, and how today's students should think differently about higher education than previous generations. Whether your child is applying to college this year or you're just beginning the journey, this episode explores how to make one of life's biggest investments…on the Back 9.

If you should ever need to divorce...this episode will help you do so like a boss...on the Back 9.
TB9, S13, E15: Mental Performance Coach Rachel Blogg -- Anxiety You Never Saw Coming
Jul 21, 202640 min
You spend most of your life thinking anxiety is something other people struggle with. Then one day, in midlife, suddenly…it's you. On this episode of The Back 9, licensed psychotherapist and mental performance coach Rachel Blogg explains why so many of us are caught off guard. Anxiety disguises itself as overthinking, overworking, sleeplessness, the need to control everything, or the nagging feeling that something is wrong—even when life looks pretty good from the outside. We talk about why midlife is the perfect storm for anxiety, and how injuries, parenting adult children, and shifting identities can sneak up and overwhelm us, and why former athletes and high achievers often struggle the most. If you've ever found yourself thinking, "Why am I suddenly feeling this way?" We've got the conversation for you…on the Back 9.
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.
