Postpartum Psychosis or Planned Crime | Roanoke News
Aug 21, 20262 min
The trial of Lindsey Clancy, accused of murdering her three children, reaches its climax as the defense rests its case on postpartum psychosis — arguing she was mentally unfit to understand her actions. Family testimony reveals her deteriorating mental state, while a psychologist confirms her inability to grasp right from wrong due to a mental defect, with no signs she faked symptoms. Prosecutors push back, claiming Clancy, a former nurse, meticulously planned the killings to isolate her husband — insisting her past mental health history doesn’t excuse this act. The jury now awaits closing arguments as the fate of a mother and the truth behind a tragedy hang in the balance.

Airstrike Kills 14 at Myanmar Monastery | Roanoke News
Aug 21, 20261 min
A deadly airstrike on a Buddhist monastery in Myanmar’s Sagaing region killed fourteen people meditating during a retreat — the latest in a wave of military bombings targeting civilians and resistance groups. Since seizing power in 2021, Myanmar’s military has ramped up airstrikes, often hitting unarmed civilians and poorly equipped fighters. With no official response yet, the military claims to only strike legitimate targets, blaming rebels for terrorism. This attack follows U.N. reports of a surge in airstrikes around recent elections, which Myanmar’s foreign ministry denies, insisting strikes are defensive and restrained. As conflict rages across the country, civilian safety remains at grave risk amid escalating aerial violence. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.

Jeffries Fit for Trial Despite Dementia | Roanoke News
Aug 21, 20262 min
Former Abercrombie & Fitch CEO Michael Jeffries, 82, has been ruled mentally fit to stand trial for sex trafficking charges — despite months of hospitalization due to dementia and Alzheimer’s. A federal judge found he understands legal proceedings, can communicate rationally, and grasps key concepts, even as his defense argued his progressive brain conditions made him unfit. Jeffries, currently out on bond, faces trial in late October alongside two co-defendants, with a pretrial hearing set for next Thursday. The case centers on allegations that he and associates lured men into prostitution through modeling gigs — accusations echoing past misconduct reports.

Yellow Bus Era Faces New Challenges | Roanoke News
Aug 21, 20261 min
The yellow school bus, once a symbol of American education and safety, is facing an uncertain future. Born from a 1939 national standard for visibility, these iconic vehicles helped consolidate rural schools and even supported desegregation efforts. From DIY truck conversions to padded seats and stop signs, they evolved into one of the safest ways to commute — even without seatbelts. Veteran drivers like Carl Fisher and Jim Oppegard spent decades behind the wheel, embodying the dedication of those who kept kids safe. But today, driver shortages and rising costs mean many students can no longer rely on the bus — forcing families to find alternatives. As the familiar yellow giants fade from the roads, a beloved institution enters a new, uncertain chapter. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.

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.
