Episode #8
Welcome back to Taiwan!In this episode I sat down with Apung and Bogdan. Its another case of learning about new friends. Bogdan is a cracked tech bro who eventually found himself in Taiwan, still doing tech and writing some pretty cool blogs. Apung is the founder of Fixin falvour, with his mission being to fix crappy food; and instil the virtues of naked cooking. So we go from Tech bro Huel life to eating well with flavour. This is one of the mroe interesting epsidoes in that my gfuests knew each other far better than I did so I hope you enjoy this culinarily politcal shaded conversation!CHAPTERS: 00:00 Intro to Ep 802:00 How They Met05:49 Who Controls What We Think?11:21 Is Talking to Strangers Weird?16:28 Labels, Online Identity & Finding a Tribe21:25 Losing Touch With Reality22:47 Fooooooooood!25:39 The Slopification of Lunch 26:55 Cooking Doesn’t Have to Be Efficient33:43 Fixin Food!38:39 Eating Together50:22 Efficiency vs Enjoyment54:42 Living for Tomorrow58:23 Tech Bros Are Cats, Finance Bros Are Dogs62:55 Dating Apps Suck66:38 What Does a Good Life Actually Look Like?MEMORABLE QUOTES:“We’re in a fight for people’s attention.”“We’re basically desperate to build and hold on to some sort of extrinsic identity.”“It’s offensive to yourself… what’s the point of living?”“Cooking doesn’t have to be efficient.”“I realised I’m always living for tomorrow when I was working.”“Tech bros are a bunch of cats.

Ep 7 aka as Ep 0 is out now.This is a time capsule from July 2025Maybe we were to soon to say we were already in that Tulip phase.
Episode #7
Welcome to 2025 aka a really shitty year for myself and most people I know.For this episode I sat down with my good friend Russ, when I was visitng him in July 2025. This is a bit of a proto-episode of Unfinished as at the time I hadn't quite decided what this would be.Thematically this is probably the most focussed episode cause we just talk about AI the whole time, and its fun to see how our views have changed since then.I met Russ in 2022 at Gamescom. For me Gamescom 2022 is a core Inflexion point in my life, a lot of the people I met there and experiences from that show have directly led to a change in my life's course and circumstances since. This show and a lot of the fallout I've been discussing so far are in some ways a direct result of the journey that started then and one of the people at its core was Russ. For better or worse if we hadn't been sat on the same table that Sunday night almost exactly four years ago today, my life would be looking very very different right now.Normal timeline00:00 Ep 0: A Time Capsule From 202502:05 When Russ met Jay05:01 Korea, Jeju & a Harry Potter Wedding06:28 Life in Toronto13:14 Canada vs USA 20:33 What Would Sovereign AI Actually Look Like?24:53 Efficiency or Comfort?25:40 From Games to AI29:06 Is Europe the New Third World?32:31 Energy is the Real AI Arms Race37:50 Why AI Agents Still Suck!40:42 Does AI Democratize Knowledge?45:11 Layoffs & the Future of Knowledge Work48:49 The One-Person Unicorn (aka Every VC's Wet Dream)55:26 Has AI Entered the Tulip Phase?57:49 Boom or Bust1:03:37 Corps vs Nations1:06:27 Your AI Agent is Your Life1:12:12 Open Source1:15:37 AI Lets Us Be More HumanFun timeline00:00 “The most powerful thing of AI as a tool… it also ungatekeeps that knowledge.”04:04 “Russ, give me the USB man.

FAQs
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.
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.
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.
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.
