About this listen

 What if a “stable” coin wasn’t? Blake and David unpack Paxos’s accidental minting of $300 trillion in PayPal USD—and what it reveals about stablecoin “pegs.” They also dig into proposals to weaponize IRS Criminal Investigations, NASBA’s flawed CPA exam data, and small-business headaches from forced AI rollouts in QuickBooks. Plus: Ripple’s treasury move, whether AI can run a $1M solo firm, and smart guardrails for using AI without breaking your books.SponsorsOnPay - http://accountingpodcast.promo/onpayRelay - http://accountingpodcast.promo/relayBill.com - http://accountingpodcast.promo/billCloud Accountant Staffing - http://accountingpodcast.promo/casChapters(01:12) - Celebrating Spreadsheet Day (04:40) - Remote Work and Flexibility in Accounting (05:50) - Live Stream Interaction (06:16) - Political Discussion: IRS Overhaul (18:12) - NASBA Data Issues (24:51) - AI in Accounting: QuickBooks and Docket (41:28) - Upcoming Events and Conferences (42:38) - Navigating Conferences: Tips and Challenges (43:16) - The Future of Earmark: Audio Books and Discounts (46:21) - Chicago Teachers Union Audit Controversy (48:52) - Stablecoins and Cryptocurrency Concerns (56:09) - AI and the Future of Accounting (57:32) - The Talent Shortage in Accounting (01:03:30) - The CPA Exam and the Future of the Profession (01:16:48) - Government Shutdown and Its Impact (01:18:48) - Closing Remarks and Listener Engagement Show NotesTrump Administration Plans IRS Overhaul to Target Left-Leaning Groups (Wall Street Journal) https://www.foxbusiness.com/politics/trump-admin-plans-irs-overhaul-probe-left-leaning-groups-more-easily-wsj-reportsNew CPA Success Index is DOA: NASBA's data behind the index no longer holds up https://www.accountingtoday.com/opinion/cpa-success-index-is-doa-nasbas-data-behind-the-index-no-longer-holds-upDocyt Launches Mission to Create the 'Million Dollar Accountant' https://www.cpapracticeadvisor.com/2025/10/15/docyt-launches-mission-to-create-the-million-dollar-accountant/170851/Ripple Acquires GTreasury for $1 Billion https://www.gtreasury.com/news/ripple-acquires-gtreasuryPaxos Accidentally Mints $300 Trillion 'Excess' PayPal Stablecoin https://www.pymnts.com/cryptocurrency/2025/paxos-accidentally-mints-300-trillion-excess-paypal-stablecoin/Dozens of Arkansas cities still without state funds over missing audits https://www.ktlo.com/2025/10/13/dozens-of-arkansas-cities-still-without-state-funds-over-missing-auditsChicago Teachers Union members sue union bosses over missing financial reports https://www.illinoispolicy.org/chicago-teachers-union-members-sue-union-bosses-over-missing-financial-reports/Need CPE?Get CPE for listening to podcasts with Earmark: https://earmarkcpe.comSubscribe to the Earmark Podcast: https://podcast.earmarkcpe.comGet in TouchThanks for listening and the great reviews!
