Mike Lawson, founder and host of CU Broadcast, has done interviews for over 4,000 videocasts and has amassed an extensive viewership, so we thought we’d turn the tables and have him on this podcast to hear about how things have changed over the past ten years, what interests viewers, and what trends he sees by talking with both credit union leaders and industry experts.
Hey there, my friend! I just had the most incredible chat with Mike Lawson on our latest podcast episode. You know, the guy who's behind the game-changing CU Broadcast, that credit union video talk show with over 15,000 subscribers? Yeah, that one.
We dove deep into his journey in the credit union world, and let me tell you, it's a rollercoaster of insights and experiences. We got into how CU Broadcast has evolved over the past 10 years – can you believe it's been a whole decade? And trust me, the twists and turns are fascinating. But the real magic happened when we started talking about technology.
Mike spilled the beans on how the whole COVID situation kicked digital transformation into high gear for credit unions. Think about it: contactless services, digital IDs, the works. He's got this super cool vision for the future where your entire financial life is at your fingertips – and not just on your phone, but everywhere, seamlessly integrated into your daily routine.
We tackled everything, from remote online notaries (yeah, that's a thing now) to this killer resource he's launched called the CU Knowledge Hub. It's like a treasure trove of webinars, white papers, and ebooks, all from industry experts. And you know what's wild? We're all soaking up this knowledge like sponges, especially with travel being a thing of the past.
Mike also got candid about the industry's incredible response during the pandemic – these credit unions, man, they've gone above and beyond for their members. And the best part? He's totally stoked about what's coming next, like a kid on Christmas morning.
