Probate Leads Help & Podcast Recommendation

Does anyone know a solid BP Podcast that can help me as I begin to target probates and marketing to probates? I am only 1 month in but I’m taking action and sending my weekly 300 letters to my solid list of 700 absentee owners in my target zip. I’m thinking about jumping to 1000 leads to follow up with over the next 7 months and that’s when I thought of probates. I am slowly uncovering that probates are a complicated goldmine that I would like to tap into. I have an appointment set with a probate attorney who is also a great friend of my cousin - any advice on what to gather during our conversation I know he’ll be a great source if he’ll refer me. How can I help him / how can wholesalers benefit probate attorneys? I’m assuming they make some type of commission off of the estate sale? Also any advice on obtaining probate leads? I’ve been reading about simply scanning obituaries, crossing your info on accessors site for ownership of real estate and then contacting family but that seems like a small shot in the dark. Can anyone share some tips for newbies taking action about taking over probate leads and the pros of having a probate attorney on your side? (I am also willing to pay someone in Columbus OH who understands our probate court extremely well here for an hour of your time to help me).

@Glenay Coleman, check out all of the biggerpocket podcasts featuring Sharon Vornholt.  I listened to those, and was able to put together a probate strategy that I have followed and modified over the last 4 years.  It is still the main method I use to find deals.  It was a huge help for me.
