90 Proof Wisdom · Guest Application

Pitch Your Story Real scars. Real builds. No fluff, no funded fairytales.

90 Proof Wisdom is the podcast about grit, not gloss. Founders who built from zero. Firefighters and first responders. Pro athletes. Musicians and actors from the working class up. Real scars. Real stakes. No silver-spoon kids. No PE money. No MLM. No course gurus.

“Success and failure, carefully distilled.”

Who we book · Who we don't

The questionnaire below is built so the disqualifiers can't hide. If you don't fit, the form will tell you. We don't waste your time and you don't waste ours.

We book

  • Founders & operators who built a real business from $0
  • Firefighters, paramedics, military, first responders
  • Pro athletes (active or retired)
  • Musicians & actors who came up working class
  • Skilled tradespeople running real shops or crews
  • Authors, pastors, coaches who built something first

We don't book

  • Family money, trust funds, or inheritance founders
  • VC, PE, or angel-funded operators (you sold equity to bet)
  • Children of famous parents in the same industry
  • MLM & network marketing operators
  • Course / mastermind / coaching gurus selling the dream
  • Crypto, NFT, day-trading, dropshipping promoters
  • First-time founders pre-revenue or pre-product
  • Anyone here to pitch a product to our audience

The Questionnaire

25 questions. Honest answers route you faster. Lies get caught in the call. Brandon Woods reviews every submission within 7 business days.

1 · Identity

No fluff. Real name, real numbers.

2 · The Scar Check

This is where the funnel works. Be honest. The disqualifiers will route you out cleanly.

Not a trick. If your dad was a movie star or your mom was a CEO and that's how you got your start, this isn't your show.
3 · The Scale Check

Not gatekeeping for the sake of it. We book operators who've earned the seat.

4 · The Grit Story

This is what Jeremy actually wants to know. Be specific. Generic doesn't earn the mic.

5 · The Bullshit Filter

Auto-rejects. Any of these checked = end of submission.

90 Proof Wisdom is not a sales channel. If you want to promote, wrong place. If you want to teach what the audience can use Monday morning, right place.
6 · The Conversation

What would the episode actually be?

7 · Logistics

Studio is in Ogden, Utah. In-person preferred.

By submitting, you confirm every answer is true. Brandon Woods will reply within 7 business days. Tier S applicants book within 30 days. Below threshold gets a polite decline. We respect your time.
