In this episode of The Consumer Finance Podcast, Chris Willis talks with Dan Smith, president and CEO of the Consumer Data Industry Association, about current challenges and changes in the U.S. consumer reporting system. They discuss how reliable credit information supports fair lending decisions and helps lenders understand a borrower's ability to repay. The conversation touches on rising FCRA litigation, new state efforts affecting what can appear on credit reports — especially medical debt — and the growing issue of “credit washing,” where large volumes of questionable disputes can hide accurate information and slow resolution of real errors. The episode also highlights the importance of working with regulators and policymakers to preserve a nationwide credit reporting system that is complete, accurate, and consistent in supporting responsible lending and access to credit.

We tend to think that our personal struggles are unique to our era, but many of our modern problems have very ancient solutions.
You ever wonder what happens when you mix AI, multifamily real estate, and a bit of jet lag?In this episode, Mike Brewer welcomes Dan Smith — the man who's turning global PropTech upside down. From student housing in the UK to shaking hands in Dubai, Dan shares his journey from launching gin distilleries to launching VerbaFlow, an AI-driven communications platform revolutionizing how we operate multifamily communities.You'll hear how Dan went from sports travel to student housing and landed right in the heart of real estate tech — and how he's using AI to actually solve problems, not just throw buzzwords at them.They unpack:The true power of AI in streamlining operations and enhancing resident experienceWhy staffing strategies must evolve (and how AI gives time back)What today's operators can learn from startups with zero legacy systemsThe future of centralized systems, open APIs, and AI-first operationsWhy community and hospitality are more vital now than everDan also sounds off on leapfrogging legacy tech, the critical role of empathy in leadership, and how multifamily pros can gear up for what's not just a transformation — but a metamorphosis.Oh, and yes, he does look tired. And no, it's not because of his baby — it's because he's singlehandedly bringing AI to the global stage.Smash that like button if you believe the future of multifamily is more human because of AI — not in spite of it.

Rum -- despite its exotic reputation -- isn't an escapist novelty so much as a lived-in, agricultural spirit, grounded in real places and real work. No one makes that case more convincingly than this week's guest, Dan Smith, managing partner of Queen Mary Tavern, a Ukrainian Village institution and longtime favorite of the Joiners boys. Dan cut his teeth at The Violet Hour, then behind the bar at Barrelhouse Flat under Stephen Cole and Greg Buttera, before opening Queen Mary in 2015 with Heisler Hospitality and building its singular, maritime-spirits-driven program. He joins us on the coldest day of the year for a proper Rum 101, touching on what actually creates Jamaican “funk,” how fermentation choices shape flavor, and why Queen Mary has worked to place rum in a less escapist, more everyday context -- plus a handful of great stories along the way, from magnum Jamaican pours to the improbable discovery of a tavern sealed in time since the 1970s.
