Get ready for prime-time disruption. On November 4, 2025, Season 4, Episode 1 of Go Fund Yourself hits the airwaves and streaming platforms, and this time, the stakes are higher than ever. The show brings two game-changing companies into the spotlight: Patriot Critical Minerals and Opti-Harvest. These are not your typical seed-stage apps. These are industrial-scale innovators tackling defense supply chains and climate-smart agriculture.
Why This Episode Matters
Go Fund Yourself isn’t just entertainment, it’s the wild convergence of startup drama, real-time investing, and mentorship from titans. The show airs on Cheddar TV (reaching 40 + million homes across cable/OTT) and plugs into social platforms where viewers can scan or click to engage live. Viewers don’t just watch, they participate. The show delivers exposure to an audience of potential investors, corporate buyers, and high-net-worth mentors. The allure? Big ideas, bold execution, and real-time access.
The Titans Behind the Drama
At the heart of the show are three leading business figures:
- Rory J. Cutaia, creator of the Go Fund Yourself show. His vision is to democratize access to capital and turn startup pitching into credible media entertainment.
- Jayson Waller, serial entrepreneur and co-host. He brings his business savvy and motivational energy.
- David Meltzer, strategist, mentor, and branding powerhouse. His presence, as well as the others, elevates the Titan panel beyond talking heads into actual business accelerators.
Together, they form the narrative engine: part Shark Tank, part interactive investment forum, part media spectacle.
Spotlight Company #1: Patriot Critical Minerals
Patriot Critical Minerals is developing America’s largest SEC-compliant tungsten resource in Nevada, a strategic play in the defense, aerospace, and clean-energy supply chain. The company is positioned to bolster U.S. domestic mining capacity for a critical raw material. The timing couldn’t be better — global supply chains are under stress, governments are tightening sourcing policies, and tungsten (a high-density metal used in defense and industrial applications) is moving back into focus.
On the show, Patriot will pitch not just for capital, but for visibility: major buyers, defense contractors, aerospace players, and ESG-minded investors will all be watching.
Spotlight Company #2: Opti-Harvest
Opti-Harvest isn’t just riding the ag-tech wave, it’s driving it. Their patented Opti-Filter technology helps farmers harness sunlight more efficiently: boosting crop yields, conserving water, and reducing labor costs. Their mission: “Better Light Makes Better Fruit.” In an era of labor scarcity, climate pressure, and resource constraints, agriculture needs innovation. Opti-Harvest offers precisely that, and on Go Fund Yourself, they will have a direct line to large-scale growers, venture-funded ag-tech firms, and sustainability-driven funds.
What This Episode Offers Audiences and Entrepreneurs
- For Viewers/Investors: Access. You’ll get a front-row seat to high-impact companies before they hit conventional IPO pipelines. You’ll hear from Titans who ask the tough questions and spotlight seriousness. You’ll also get chances — via the show’s platform — to invest, engage, and buy into companies in real-time.
- For Entrepreneurs: Exposure. A platform like this raises your brand across media (Cheddar TV, shows, social streams), opens doors to buyer networks and mentors, and forces clarity — which is a rare asset in pitching.
- For Both: Entertainment with substance. The drama of startup presentations, the suspense of Titan feedback, the tangible potential of investment — it works as a show and as a real business engine.
