Franklin Templeton's Seth Ginns | 90% of Finance Goes OnChain
Aug 17, 202638 min

Why Most "Crypto AI" Companies Are Faking It | Anthony Anzalone
Aug 10, 202627 min
Erin Gambrel sits down with Anthony Anzalone, infamously known in the space as "Burnt Banksy," the CEO and Founder of Verona (formerly Xion), to discuss why the tech world is quietly pivoting away from traditional crypto infrastructure and betting everything on AI. Anthony breaks down the dangerous reality of the current AI boom: the internet is drowning in unverified, fake data, and the trust model is fundamentally broken. He makes a compelling case that the real opportunity isn't in building another flashy AI frontend, but in building the foundational layer of truth. He explains how Verona is turning personal data into a financial asset through zero-knowledge proofs, allowing everyday users to finally get paid in real dollars for their digital footprint instead of giving it away to big tech for free. He also walks through Verona's strategic rebrand from Zion, detailing how they are successfully Trojan-horsing decentralized tech into massive enterprise companies (like airlines and malls) by completely dropping the toxic "crypto" label. Erin and Anthony also get into what the market keeps getting wrong about the current tech cycle, why most startups claiming to be "Crypto AI" are completely faking it, and Anthony's provocative legacy of using chaos, like burning a real Banksy painting, to push society forward.

Why Lite Strategy Is Going All In on Litecoin While Everyone Else Chases Bitcoin | Jay File, Lite Strategy
Aug 3, 202642 min
Host Erin Gambrel (The Blonde Broker) sits down with Jay File, CEO of Lite Strategy, exactly one year after the company closed its deal to make Litecoin its primary treasury asset — and he makes a compelling case for why that bet is just getting started. Jay breaks down what he calls DAT 3.0, the idea that just buying and holding crypto is table stakes now, and the real opportunity is in actively monetizing your treasury through covered calls, share buybacks funded without debt, and strategic investments into ecosystem infrastructure. He walks through Lite Strategy's $1 million lead investment into LitVM, the first zero-knowledge layer two built on Litecoin, which he argues takes Litecoin from a single-purpose payment network to a full stack ecosystem capable of DeFi, tokenized real world assets, and yield generation for the first time. They also get into what the market keeps getting wrong about Litecoin — it was never meant to replace Bitcoin, it was built to complement it. TIMESTAMPS 00:00 Institutional Adoption of Crypto 03:30 Regulatory Clarity and Capital Inflows 06:07 The DAT 3.0 Treasury Model 14:12 Debt-Free Share Repurchases 17:40 Litecoin, Payments and Privacy 24:47 LitVM and the Litecoin Ecosystem 29:17 Tokenization, Regulation and Litecoin’s Future Host: Erin Gambrel (The Blonde Broker) Host Socials: @theblondebroker (X) | @blondebrokerofficial (Instagram) You can subscribe to the podcast on Spotify, Apple or YouTube.

Dumb Money Is Dead | Gav Blaxberg, Wolf Financial
Jul 27, 202628 min
Host Erin Gambrel (The Blonde Broker) catches up with her longtime friend Gav Blaxberg, Founder & CEO of Wolf Financial, for a conversation that's part market strategy, part behind-the-scenes look at what it actually took to build one of the most recognizable investing communities on social media from scratch. Gav makes a compelling case that the dumb money vs. smart money debate is dead. What matters now is fast money vs. slow money, and retail, with no committee approvals, no position limits, and access to the same real-time data as the big funds, is actually the faster of the two. TIMESTAMPS 00:00 Growing YouTube in Finance 03:14 Retail vs. Institutional Investors 06:32 Smarter Investing & Portfolio Management 09:16 Building Wolf Financial & Career Success 12:27 Financial Media, Trust & Risk Management 19:13 AI Market Outlook & Key Risks 22:08 Building Investor Community & Legacy This podcast is powered by Synthetix: https://synthetix.io/ Host: Erin Gambrel (The Blonde Broker) Host Socials: @theblondebroker (X) | @blondebrokerofficial (Instagram) You can subscribe to the podcast on Spotify, Apple or YouTube.

DeFi Failed Because the Product Wasn't Good Enough | Ben Celermajer, Synthetix
Jul 20, 202642 min
Host Erin Gambrel (The Blonde Broker) catches up with Benjamin Celermajer who's been leading Synthetix’ day-to-day since late 2024, to talk about why perps are one of the most underrated financial innovations crypto has ever produced. Instead of chasing the L2 trend, Ben believes building them on Ethereum mainnet will pay off long term. He makes a case that decentralization alone was never going to win traders over, and that the only thing that actually shifts volume from centralized exchanges to onchain venues is a product that's fast, liquid, and doesn't make you feel like your money might disappear. TIMESTAMPS 00:00 Macro Trends and Market Sensitivity 02:58 The Evolution of Bitcoin and Crypto as an Asset Class 05:49 Synthetics: Building for the Future of Finance 09:09 The Importance of Perpetual Contracts in Crypto Trading 11:46 Understanding the Dominance of Perpetual Futures 15:01 Synthetics' Unique Positioning in the Market 17:59 The Future of Decentralized Trading Infrastructure 20:57 Legacy and Vision for Synthetics and Personal Life Host: Erin Gambrel (The Blonde Broker) Host Socials: @theblondebroker (X) | @blondebrokerofficial (Instagram) You can subscribe to the podcast on Spotify, Apple or YouTube.

FAQs

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.
