Episode 300 – Reflecting on 12 Years of Payments on Fire
2026 is a milestone year for Glenbrook as we celebrate the 25th anniversary of the firm. We also find ourselves airing the 300th episode of our Payments on Fire podcast – founded by George Peabody in 2014, nurtured by Yvette Bohanan, and now continued on through the hosting efforts of most of the team.
We thought there would be no better way to mark the 12 year achievement – and pay respect to what George and Yvette built – than to revisit the journey with clips from the first 299 episodes. From early episodes on digital currency and AI, to fast payments evolution and financial inclusion efforts (and how could we leave out tokenization), listen in as Bryan Derman and Jill Wurst guide you through significant moments in the podcast’s history.
Episode 299 – The Evolving Payments Regulatory Environment in the European Union, with Scott McInnes, Bird & Bird
In this Payments on Fire episode, Glenbrook’s Chris Uriarte and Samantha Gordon continue their global payments regulation series with Scott McInnes, Partner at Bird & Bird, focusing on the European Union.
Tune in as they explore the EU’s highly regulated landscape, the challenges of inconsistent national enforcement across 27 member states, and developments on current regulatory topics.
Episode 298 – The Patchwork of Payments Regulation in the US, with Duncan Douglass, Alston & Bird LLP
Kicking off a series of regulation-related episodes, Duncan Douglass, payments attorney and Partner at Alston & Bird LLP, joins Chris Uriarte and Samantha Gordon to turn the confusing and sometimes tedious topic of US payments regulation into an entertaining and enlightening update.
The conversation begins with who actually regulates payments in the US and how US payments oversight differs from the UK and EU, then flows into developments on current regulatory topics.
