Live from the NAEA Fly-In: A Filing Season Debrief
Streams straight from the publisher. PodNod never proxies or re-hosts episode audio.
Roger and Annie take Federal Tax Updates on the road to the NAEA National Fly-In in Washington, D.C., joined by Tax Notes Federal reporter Ben Valdez and a room full of practitioners ready to talk. The conversation covers the messy rollout of the One Big Beautiful Bill, the paper check-to-direct-deposit transition that left many taxpayers stranded, IRS phone lines that connect but don't solve, and the growing gap between what clients are hearing on TikTok and what their tax pros are actually filing. It's a filing season debrief unlike any other.
