📢 The BDO Show is back, and we’re diving into a topic that’s got SBA lenders everywhere talking—DOGE, efficiency, and what it all means for small business lending.

What happens when a billionaire takes a microscope (or a hacksaw) to the SBA? We’re breaking down the real implications of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) and why it might not be as funny as it sounds.

Join Emily Detor, Alan Peterson, Chris Hackney, Sterling Birdsong, and Ryan Kroge as they cover:

💰 The truth about DOGE and how it could impact SBA lending 📉 The ‘shady business administration’ tweet—fact or fiction? 🛑 Why SBA’s small-dollar lending boom might be causing problems 💡 Should SBA loans go up to $10M? A heated debate 🚨 The 4363 blacklist—why some borrowers are getting permanently banned from SBA loans

This episode is packed with insights, hot takes, and the occasional roast session. Are we overreacting, or is this the beginning of major SBA shake-ups? Drop your thoughts in the comments or email us at [email protected].
