This is a special episode of Jim’s Book Club on the Full Disclosure Podcast. Lodestar’s very own Alayna Gardner recently published an essay in a book, Rethink Everything You Know About Networking.

Alayna and Jim are fresh off MBA Annual in Las Vegas, and they’re here to share their thoughts on the conference and the state of mortgage lending as we head into the holidays.

For this special episode of the Full Disclosure podcast, Jim and Alayna are returning to their Lending Leaders roots and welcoming an exciting guest, Brian Vieaux, CMB, the new president of MISMO. Together they discuss the future of mortgage industry standards and how rapidly AI is changing the game.

Here is the second full-month cut of the Full Disclosure podcast. For October, it’s all about pumpkin (of course), fall conference season, end-of-year rate cuts, and how to stay steady despite market shakeups.

Five Thursdays in October?! One of them right next to Halloween?!? We couldn’t miss the opportunity to release a special edition Halloween episode of Full Disclosure with Jim and Alayna. Enjoy!

Jim is at it again… for our monthly segment on the Full Disclosure Podcast, “What Grinds My Gears,” Jim has a quiz for Alayna. Should it pumpkin??

Welcome back to Full Disclosure! Jim and Alayna sit down to discuss the state of the market over the past month, the effects of the rate cut, and how mortgage lenders are strategizing for changes ahead.
