    Do Audit Opinions Matter? A Discussion with Professor Ed Ketz

    Do Audit Opinions Matter? A Discussion with Professor Ed Ketz

    Professor Ed Ketz of Penn State joins the show to discuss audits' current state and future. We delve into the relevance of audits and explore the value of unqualified opinions in making audits meaningful. The discussion also touches on the overstandardization of audit reports and how this can lead to investor misunderstandings. Professor Ketz brings a unique perspective, sparking a debate on whether the existence of the unqualified opinion creates value rather than the content within. The episode ends with a brainstorm on potential regulation improvements to improve audit quality and usefulness.

    SPAC Attack: Why Withum Got Slapped with a $2M PCAOB Fine

    SPAC Attack: Why Withum Got Slapped with a $2M PCAOB Fine

    Blake and David meet with Chris Vanover, President of CPAClub, about the recent $2 million PCAOB fine against Withum for poor audit quality on many 2021 SPAC audits. They examine Withum's 500% increase in audits with minimal staff growth, leading to overworked teams and partners working 100+ hour weeks. They also debate whether the fines are large enough to change behavior or just a cost of doing business.
