(31 minutes) We all remember the strong finish to the 2024 season, which propelled ASU into the Big 12 championship game. This year, a road victory at Iowa State is a good indicator that the Sun Devils can run the table again in November, but will this lead to a repeat appearance in Arlington? My conversation with the co-host of the Speak of the Devils podcast, Brad Denny, discusses the road win last Saturday and Arizona State's prospects for the rest of the season.
Nonprofit accounting and legal services require specialized expertise that most professionals lack. On this episode of Nonprofit Counsel, host May Harris speaks with Mike Payne, founder and CEO of Boss Advisors, about why combining these disciplines creates better outcomes for charitable organizations. Mike shares his journey from Ernst & Young's tax-exempt organization practice to building an innovative firm that integrates nonprofit CPA services with legal counsel. They discuss critical topics, including Form 990 preparation, board governance, conflict of interest policies, and why professionals should never dabble in nonprofit tax compliance. This conversation explores the benefits of combining legal and accounting services for nonprofits, while avoiding costly mistakes that could jeopardize their tax-exempt status. What You'll Learn in This Episode: Why nonprofit accounting and legal services should be integrated rather than siloed to prevent costly compliance mistakes The critical importance of specialized expertise in tax-exempt organizations and why professionals should never dabble in nonprofit law How to establish proper board governance, including required training, conflict of interest policies, and articles of incorporation reviews Best practices for Form 990 preparation and understanding the unique disclosure requirements that differ from traditional business tax returns Subscribe to The Nonprofit Counsel Podcast and stay ahead on the legal and strategic insights that help nonprofits thrive. Join the conversation and empower your mission with expert guidance every episode. TIMESTAMPS: 00:00 Mike Payne's journey from law school to Ernst & Young's tax-exempt organization practice and founding Boss Advisors 05:55 Combining nonprofit accounting and legal services eliminates the client middleman problem in nonprofit tax compliance, and it represents the intersection of law and tax 13:17 The dangers of practitioners dabbling in nonprofit law without specialized expertise in Form 990 preparation 19:16 Discussion of essential board governance training, including conflict of interest policies and required board member education 22:52 Ensuring articles of incorporation and bylaws align with actual organizational activities and charitable purpose KEY TAKEAWAYS: Nonprofit accounting and legal services must be integrated to avoid putting clients in the awkward position of translating information between their accountant and lawyer, which often results in missed critical details affecting nonprofit tax compliance. Practitioners should never dabble in tax-exempt organizations' work—whether lawyers or CPAs—because the specialized knowledge required means mistakes can result in excise taxes, intermediate sanctions, or complete loss of tax-exempt status for the organization. Every board governance structure needs the ABCs plus D: articles of incorporation, bylaws, conflict of interest policy, and annual disclosure statements that board members must review and sign to ensure proper understanding and compliance.

Birthright citizenship guarantees citizenship to anyone born within the United States' territory, regardless of a parent's nationality. But should this legal principle be removed from the Constitution? Those arguing it shouldn't say that it prevents children from being punished for their parents' status, while encouraging long-term economic and civic contributions. But those calling to end the practice argue it fuels illegal immigration and strains the overburdened immigration system. Now, we debate: Should America End Birthright Citizenship? This debate was recorded on October 9, 2025 at 1 PM at the Walter Cronkite School of Journalism and Mass Communication at Arizona State University in Phoenix, AZ. This event is part of a new partnership between Open to Debate and Arizona State University's Institute of Politics to bring live debate programming to ASU's campus in a special series titled PRO/CONversations. Produced by Arizona PBS in the Arizona State University Media Enterprise—which will air and promote the recorded programs—the series is designed to model civil discourse for students while offering hands-on production experience to ASU journalism students. Arguing Yes: Mark Krikorian, Executive Director of the Center for Immigration Studies Horace Cooper, Senior Fellow at the National Center for Public Policy Research; Chairman of the Project 21 National Advisory Board Arguing No: Kris Mayes, Arizona Attorney General Chris Newman, Legal Director of the National Day Laborer Organizing Network (NDLON) Emmy award-winning journalist John Donvan moderates Visit OpentoDebate.org to watch more insightful debates.

Today was a truly incredible day. As you know, COBT began in the spring of 2020 with the original mission of trying to share better and more informed energy macro perspectives with the energy-curious world. Over the past five and a half years, it has evolved to become something much bigger, a platform to share a wide range of energy perspectives. Today marked a watershed moment in the history of energy education. As noted in the official press release linked here, Bob Zorich, Partner and Co-Founder of EnCap Investments, made an extraordinarily generous donation to Arizona State University with the sole purpose of advancing energy education. Bob is an alumnus of ASU's Thunderbird School of Global Management, and the investment will directly support energy education and innovation, advancing practical, fact-based solutions to global energy challenges. For those of you who are regular listeners or viewers, you may remember we hosted Dr. Michael Crow, President of ASU, on the podcast in September (episode linked here). What's particularly exciting about ASU is the University's commitment to reimagining education, scaling access, and transforming workforce development. Bob Zorich, as a highly accomplished energy business leader, is passionate about improving energy education and seems to have found a phenomenal partner in ASU. In this week's segment, we broadcast live from ASU's rollout of the new energy education initiative here in Houston. We caught up with Michael and Bob for a quick conversation on a very busy day to discuss the initiative, Bob's passion for expanding energy knowledge, ASU's commitment to fostering problem-solving, the university's diverse student body and global reach, and more. You'll also see Michael and Bob's panel from the event discussing the initiative in detail. We greatly appreciate Michael and Bob for including Veriten in this exciting event. As a wrap up, we are delighted to share that this week marks our 300th regularly scheduled COBT episode. We appreciate the Veriten community and the many great guests who have joined us along the way. We look forward to the next 300 episodes and where they will take us. All we can promise is that we'll continue following our curiosity wherever it leads us and remain committed to letting our guests openly talk about their perspectives so you can form your own views on the complex energy, power, and environmental issues of the day. Our best to you all!
