'Back-to-School Season' Has Become a Late-Stage Capitalist Mess
Aug 20, 202630 min
Back-to-school season has, whether parents like it or not, become a full-blown cultural event. A season! Just for shopping for kids' stuff! Who needs all this? This week, we're talking the pressure to buy new clothes and supplies, and the growing number of back-to-school activities and meetups. Was August always this stressful? Life was different then, but so was school itself. The quality of education, school resources, learning loss and changing approaches to teaching, as well as the uniquely American anxiety around active-shooter drills and school shootings—there have been major changes to school life in the last 20 years. But are things really worse off, or are we midlifers just old folks who think our way was better?
Some midlife changes happen gradually. Others seemly spring up overnight. Suddenly lighter beer tastes better, strategic napping is a thing, and restaurant menus are harder to read. These are just a few of the small, universal shifts that come with getting older—while also becoming increasingly curmudgeonly about other folks' newfangled habits, like FaceTiming in the grocery store.
RIP Critical Thinking Skills. Will They Ever Return?
Aug 6, 202631 min
Everyone knows social media drives people apart—deeper into echo chambers, conspiratorial thinking and dehumanized realities—but few can see the forest through the trees. Many still believe they are right about everything; they are owed justice for injustices committed against them; and they cannot comprehend why someone else might be right about something. How do we crack this reality and return to a world of critical thinking?
Turning 40 isn’t a Death Sentence. It's Your New 'Prime Time'
Jul 23, 202631 min
Do you have one foot in the grave once you hit 40? Maybe it was true in the Middle Ages... but not anymore. Inspired by Emma Rosenblum’s Wall Street Journal essay , Mike and Andrew explore the idea that one's 40s is adulthood's "prime time", and highlight how midlifers are redefining success, joy, and fulfillment in their 40s and beyond.
Movie theatres were once the centre of summer entertainment, but are midlifers still showing up? Mike and Andrew dive into the changing movie-going experience, from rising ticket prices and family budgets to streaming convenience and nostalgia-fuelled rewatches. They compare today's theatre experience with the blockbuster era they grew up in, share favourite movie memories, and debate whether cinemas can still compete for the attention of busy parents.

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.
