  • Ep 12: Baselane’s Mathias Korder on a “CFO in Your Pocket” for Real Estate Investors
    Jun 9 2026

    Atticus LeBlanc, founder and CEO of PadSplit, interviews Mathias Korder, co-founder and CEO of Baselane, a financial platform for real estate investors that combines banking, bookkeeping, rent collection, and tax tools and serves over 50,000 investors managing over $3B in annual transactions. Mathias shares his background and explains Baselane’s origin in building SMB banking products that weren’t tailored to real estate investors’ cash flow, property-level accounting, and Schedule E tax needs. He discusses serving diverse strategies (rooms, short-, mid-, and long-term rentals, fix-and-flip) with automated transaction tagging, reporting, expense splitting, and depreciation schedules, plus integrations for migration. Korder describes a roadmap from utility to automation to AI-driven insights as a “CFO in your pocket,” notes customers often double rent/income over two years, and highlights common investor mistakes and housing regulation bottlenecks.

  • Ep 11: From PadSplit member to entrepreneur & PadSplit host: Azubuike Akunne’s Journey
    May 26 2026

    Host Atticus LeBlanc, founder and CEO of PadSplit, interviews Azubuike Akunne, a former PadSplit member in Houston and now founder of NeuBite and nonprofit AveNeu. Azubuike shares about his background before working at a transportation technology company in Houston and choosing PadSplit for flexibility, affordability, and the experience of shared living. He describes clean homes, clear rules, maturity among members, navigating conflicts, including a suspected white supremacist roommate, and practicing “ego death.” Now back in Columbus, he helped renovate his mother’s duplex into an Airbnb, then shifted part and eventually plans to shift all to PadSplit, contrasting Airbnb’s seasonality and guest expectations with PadSplit’s vetting and consistency. He explains NeuBite’s SNAP EBT-enabled vending approach and goals to expand food access nationwide.

  • Ep 10: The Current Housing Bills in Congress with Dennis Shea from the Bipartisan Policy Center
    May 12 2026
    In this episode, host Atticus LeBlanc, CEO of PadSplit, interviews Dennis Shea, EVP at the Bipartisan Policy Center and Chair of the J. Ronald Terwilliger Center for Housing Policy, about his career spanning Senate work, trade roles, and becoming HUD Assistant Secretary for Policy Development and Research. Shea explains Ron Terwilliger’s impact as a housing philanthropist and how the BPC Housing Center was created. They discuss BPC’s “American Housing Act” framework focused on supply, preservation, and support, and the House and Senate housing bills that passed with large bipartisan margins, including the Senate build-to-rent divestiture requirement and other controversial aspects. They note executive orders on deregulation and mortgage access, emphasize multiple solutions beyond federal action, explore coliving and shared housing, especially for aging households, and Shea highlights regulatory compliance costs as a major driver of high housing costs.00:00 Welcome and Guest Intro01:20 Dennis Shea Career Path03:52 HUD and Housing Mission07:29 Who Is Ron Terwilliger11:53 BPC Role in Housing14:49 Senate Bill Controversy17:16 Build to Rent Details21:34 Coliving and Aging28:55 Getting It Over Line34:33 Rapid Fire and WrapOne Room at a Time podcast: https://padsplit.com/podcastConnect with Atticus LeBlanc on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/atticus-leblanc-3960466/Connect with Dennis Shea on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dennis-shea-6a745517/References:Bipartisan Policy Center: https://bipartisanpolicy.org/Bob Lighthizer: https://politics.georgetown.edu/profile/bob-lighthizer/Senator Bob Dole: https://www.senate.gov/senators/FeaturedBios/Featured_Bio_DoleRobertJ.htmRon Terwilliger: https://www.enterprisecommunity.org/about/j-ronald-terwilligerHabitat for Humanity International: https://www.habitat.org/Enterprise Community Partners: https://www.enterprisecommunity.org/Urban Land Institute: https://uli.org/Roger Staubach: https://www.britannica.com/biography/Roger-Staubach21st Century ROAD to Housing Act: https://bipartisanpolicy.org/explainer/whats-in-the-21st-century-road-to-housing-act/Boys in the Boat by Daniel James Brown: https://www.amazon.com/Boys-Boat-Americans-Berlin-Olympics/dp/0143125478National Association of Home Builders: https://www.nahb.org/
