Thursday nights are a whole lot more exciting with Go Fund Yourself, the hit reality-meets-entrepreneurship series on Cheddar TV. It returned today with Season 3, Episode 5, which aired at 7 PM ET. If you’ve been following along this season, you already know this isn’t your typical startup pitch show. It’s fast-paced, entertaining, and a little unpredictable — in the best way possible.

The real magic comes from the show’s seasoned Titans: Rory Cutaia, David Meltzer, and Jayson Waller. Each brings a unique edge — visionary leadership, sharp business acumen, and unfiltered candor — that makes every pitch session feel like a masterclass in entrepreneurship. For the founders on stage, it’s not just about chasing funding. It’s about being put on the radar of three powerhouse investors while gaining exposure to a national audience. And in today’s attention economy, that kind of visibility is priceless.

Why Founders Flock to the Stage

For many startups, getting in front of the right investors can take months of networking, endless emails, and closed doors. Go Fund Yourself flips the script, offering entrepreneurs a rare combination of instant visibility and direct access to high-level feedback. Even if a deal isn’t struck on air, founders walk away with a massive credibility boost, sharper strategies, and often, new doors opening within hours of the episode airing.

The benefits extend far beyond the pitch itself. As past contestants have shown, the exposure alone can drive customer growth, attract additional investors, and create media momentum that startups typically spend years trying to build. The show is a launching pad for products, ideas, and sometimes, entire movements.

This week, two innovative companies step up to the plate, each tackling challenges that affect millions of people: how we manage everyday life and how we navigate the legal system.

My Panda: Reviving the Village, One Task at a Time

For single, working mom and social worker-turned-entrepreneur Sarah, life’s endless to-do list sparked an idea: what if neighbors could lean on each other again, the way communities once did? The result is My Panda (Personal Assistants Next Door App), a platform that connects people who need help with everyday tasks to trusted locals, “Pandas,” who want flexible, meaningful work.

Need groceries picked up, a dog walked, or a quick errand run? My Panda makes it happen with just a few taps on its app. It’s not just about convenience, it’s about rebuilding the kind of community support that so many families miss today. Members get time back to focus on what matters most, while Pandas earn a livable wage doing work they enjoy.

My Panda has already gained traction in Atlanta, supported by programs at GA Tech, Emory, and the City of Atlanta’s Women Entrepreneurship Initiative. Now, the company is looking to scale its mission nationwide. On Go Fund Yourself, My Panda isn’t just pitching an app, it’s pitching a movement to reimagine community in the modern era.

Juricon.ai: Smart Legal Matches at Lightning Speed

On the other end of the spectrum, Juricon.ai is tackling one of life’s most stressful hurdles: finding the right lawyer. Instead of scrolling through generic directories or relying on word-of-mouth, Juricon lets users describe their legal issue in plain language. Proprietary AI then analyzes the need and instantly matches them with the lawyer whose real case experience fits best, down to context-rich details and availability for consultation.

Founded by Ryan Newburn under parent company LawyerUp Holdings, Juricon is shaking up an industry notorious for complexity and inefficiency. By emphasizing experience-based ranking over keyword directories, the platform delivers higher-quality leads for lawyers and better results for clients. Whether it’s for individuals navigating personal legal matters or businesses seeking specialized representation, Juricon streamlines the process, saving time, money, and frustration.

For Juricon, Go Fund Yourself is more than just exposure, it’s validation that their AI-driven model is ready for primetime. Investors and viewers alike will see firsthand how technology can bring clarity to an industry that touches everyone, yet often feels out of reach.

Don’t Miss the Replay

Whether you’re an aspiring entrepreneur, an investor looking for the next big thing, or simply a fan of compelling television, Go Fund Yourself delivers week after week. Each episode blends drama, strategy, and inspiration, reminding us that one great pitch really can change everything.

Tune in Thursday, September 4, at 7 PM ET on Cheddar TV.
