Lucas and Luna sit down with the thick blue volume of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code between them, tracing the threads that connect personal income tax brackets to corporate tax inversions. Each episode examines one specific fiscal lever — the corporate rate, the carried interest loophole, the earned income tax credit — and traces its real-world effects on capital allocation, wage growth, and federal revenue. They avoid partisan shouting matches; instead, they walk through the arithmetic of a tax expenditure, compare it to direct spending, and ask how the burden actually falls. Lucas holds a fountain pen, drawing marginal-rate curves on scrap paper. Luna pushes back with case studies: how Ireland's 12.5% rate reshaped global pharmaceutical supply chains, or how the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act changed buyback behavior. This show is for anyone who reads the Joint Committee on Taxation reports and wants to understand not just what the law says but what it does. No lobbyists, no spin — just

We’re breaking down the specific tax mechanics that make your daily latte more expensive than it needs to be, focusing on the interplay between excise taxes and state-level sales structures. Using a concrete example from Seattle’s beverage tax policy, we explore how local levies on sugary drinks and retail margins create a distinct cost burden for consumers. Lucas dissects the legislative intent behind these municipal codes while Luna examines the real-world impact on small business cash flow and consumer behavior in September twenty twenty six. #TaxPolicy #FexingoBusiness #Economics #BusinessPodcast #SeattleTax #ExciseTax #StateAndLocalTax #SugaryDrinks #SmallBusiness #ConsumerBehavior #FiscalPolicy #RetailMargins #MunicipalLevy #CoffeeIndustry #TaxIncidence #LocalRevenue #BeverageTax #PublicFinance Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
We examine the mechanics of the global corporate minimum tax framework and how it alters merger and acquisition strategies for multinational corporations. By analyzing the interaction between domestic statutory rates and foreign tax credits, we explore why some cross-border deals are now being restructured or abandoned entirely. The discussion focuses on the specific friction points that arise when a company's effective tax rate hits the new floor, changing the calculus for value creation in international markets. #CorporateTax #MergersAndAcquisitions #GlobalMinimumTax #InternationalBusiness #TaxPolicy #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #Economics #MultinationalCorporations #TaxReform #CrossBorderDeals #EffectiveTaxRate #FinancialStrategy #LucasAndLuna #FiscalPolicy #TaxIncentives #CorporateFinance #MarketAnalysis Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
In this episode of The Tax Policy Podcast, Lucas and Luna examine the unintended consequences of employer-sponsored health insurance tax exclusions. We break down how the pre-tax benefit for health coverage creates a moral hazard in consumer spending, leading to higher overall healthcare costs for everyone. By looking at specific data on premium inflation versus wage growth since the early two thousand and tenes, we reveal why the current system discourages price shopping and drives up deductibles. This is not just about your paycheck; it is about how tax policy shapes the entire healthcare market. #HealthcarePolicy #TaxExclusion #EmployerSponsoredInsurance #MoralHazard #PremiumInflation #WageGrowth #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #Economics #Finance #CorporateBenefits #ConsumerBehavior #MarketDistortion #PublicPolicy #LucasAndLuna #DailyBusiness #TaxCode #Insurancemarket Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
We explore the complex web of state and local taxes that remote workers face when their employer is based in one state, they live in another, and their company uses a third state for payroll processing. Using a hypothetical case involving a software engineer moving from California to Texas, we break down nexus rules, apportionment formulas, and the unexpected costs of working from home across state lines. This episode reveals how small businesses are struggling with compliance while employees navigate the tax implications of location independence. #RemoteWorkTaxes #StateIncomeTax #NexusRules #PayrollCompliance #EmployerLiability #TaxApportionment #CaliforniaTax #TexasNoIncomeTax #SmallBusinessTips #HRPolicy #DigitalNomadLife #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #EconomicsExplained #WorkFromHome #CorporateFinance #TaxStrategy #EmployeeBenefits Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
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.
