In this episode, hosts Tom Zaccaro and Nick Morgan are joined by four academic co-authors—Professors Eldar Maksymov, Phillip Lamoreaux, Nate Cannon, and Noah Myers—to discuss their new paper, "Is the PCAOB enforcement approach aligned with its mandate?".

Now we are helping Ray fight one more SEC injustice: a professional bar that only ends when the SEC says it does, even though his “right to apply for reentry” began seven years ago.
