“A podcast is one of the best hacks for connecting in about as real a way as COVID allows us right now. And in this new economic climate, we want to help all community banks and credit unions as much as we can by sharing some of the data and winning strategy we’ve seen work with our clients,” said Gabe Krajicek, CEO of Kasasa. “We did not take it on lightly, because we know that a podcast is only as good as its information, its host, and its guests.
