Liam Stanton: Chicago Mayor Race & City Hall Red Tape | The Pat McGann Show Summer Special
Aug 6, 202628 minS1
How many signatures does it take to get on the ballot for mayor of Chicago? Turns out it's 12,500, and you're not allowed to collect a single one before July 28th. Liam Stanton, candidate for Mayor of Chicago, joins Pat McGann and Dwayne Kennedy to talk about his campaign, City Hall's finances, and what separates him from a crowded field of career politicians. Stanton grew up in Rogers Park as the youngest of eight, and his grandfather immigrated from Ireland to clean streetcars before his dad became a Chicago cop. He also opens up about his brother Tom, who runs the Danny Did Foundation and its work on childhood epilepsy. Along the way: a scammer trying to con his wife out of a nominating signature, the parking meter deal nobody's forgiven, a pitch to hold debates over Italian beef, and Friends of the Parks getting called out (again).

PAT & KB: Kevin Bozeman drops by for a hang with Pat to talk parenting, hoops, Chicago & more…
Jul 30, 202642 minS1
Kevin Bozeman is back on the show for the first time since episode seven, and Pat wastes no time doing the math on what that means for episode 350. The Chicago native and stand-up comedian catches Pat up on a summer of European travel, a Chicago Vocational School education whose alumni list reads like a Chicago sports hall of fame, and a full-circle sports memory built around an old West Unseld jersey. They also get into the sportsbook takeover of Sunday afternoons and settle into a long, deeply held debate over LeBron James, Kobe Bryant, and Michael Jordan. Bozeman shares that he'll be back in Chicago for stand-up shows this September, and weighs in on the city's next generation of stars in Caleb Williams and the White Sox.

Marcelo Balboa & Joey Villagomez: World Cup Recap & Back of the Yards | The Pat McGann Show Ep. 48
Jul 23, 20261h 18mS1
Which Chicago office building doubles as a former mob execution site and a cushy city day job? Just ask Joey Villagomez. The Back of the Yards comic — who picked up the nickname "Joey the Clown" — joins Pat McGann and Dwayne Kennedy alongside World Cup analyst Marcelo Balboa this week. Villagomez traces his path from tagging CTA train cars as a teenager to hosting rooms across Chicago's old open mic circuit with Felipe Esparza and Bill Burr, plus a recent hour at the Comedy Store that's got him eyeing a full month in LA. Balboa, meanwhile, breaks down how Spain shut down Lionel Messi and dismantled Argentina in the World Cup final, and shares the story of the friend who had to leave Pat's Kirkland stand-up show early — mid dental-surgery recovery — because he couldn't stop laughing. New episodes every Thursday — filmed at Tiege Hanley Studios in Chicago.

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.
