Episode Summary
In this episode of With Flying Colors, I’m joined by two longtime friends and former NCUA colleagues — John McKechnie and Geoff Bacino — for a candid roundtable on the latest twists at the agency and across the credit union movement.
From the legal limbo over NCUA board seats to the agency’s shrinking staff and the Supreme Court case that could reshape presidential power, we dig into what it all means for your credit union. We also cover the leadership change at America’s Credit Unions, the future of CFPB oversight, and what to expect from NCUA’s upcoming strategic planning town hall.
And yes — we wrap up with some NFL predictions (with John’s Ravens, Geoff’s Bears, and my Vikings all getting their fair share of good-natured ribbing).
