Each episode, host David Wiener (“Mr. Cash Flow”) sits down with CPAs, tax attorneys, cost segregation experts, and top investors to break down complex tax rules into clear, step‑by‑step strategies you can actually use. You’ll hear real case studies, before‑and‑after numbers, and practical checklists on things like cost segregation, bonus depreciation, real estate professional status, short‑term rental strategies, entity structure, and more—without legalese or fluff. Expect straight talk, tactical advice you can hand to your CPA, and simple action items at the end of every show so you always know what to do next.","last_synced_at":"2026-07-14T22:17:11.667852+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-tax-strategy-playbook-7760433"},"episode":{"title":"Former IRS Agent: Why Syndicated Conservation Easements Are About to Blow Up","slug":"former-irs-agent-why-syndicated-conservation-easements-are-about-to-blow-up","published_at":"2026-06-23T11:00:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-tax-strategy-playbook-7760433/former-irs-agent-why-syndicated-conservation-easements-are-about-to-blow-up","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-tax-strategy-playbook-7760433","url":"https://api.riverside.com/hosting-analytics/media/6fd4f9df11ea2f750979a1dbe71600705b6f3caf78d69ea3e5ea908a80f08bcc/eyJlcGlzb2RlSWQiOiI3MzUyMjMzYy05MWVjLTRlMjQtODMyYi1hNGNhNzMwOTMwOTYiLCJwb2RjYXN0SWQiOiI4NDdiYmJiNy0zZjM3LTQwM2UtYTI3My1lODM5MjJmNzcwYzgiLCJhY2NvdW50SWQiOiI2OTdiOGE0NmMzYTNjN2MxYzdiMmMyMmYiLCJwYXRoIjoibWVkaWEvY2xpcHMvNmEzNjlhZTcyNzNmY2Y1YzI0NjQzYjhjL3BvZGNhc3Qtc3R1ZGlvLVRlZGZqLWNvbXBvc2VyLTIwMjYtNi0yMF9fMTUtNTEtMzUubXAzIn0=.mp3","audio_url":"https://api.riverside.com/hosting-analytics/media/6fd4f9df11ea2f750979a1dbe71600705b6f3caf78d69ea3e5ea908a80f08bcc/eyJlcGlzb2RlSWQiOiI3MzUyMjMzYy05MWVjLTRlMjQtODMyYi1hNGNhNzMwOTMwOTYiLCJwb2RjYXN0SWQiOiI4NDdiYmJiNy0zZjM3LTQwM2UtYTI3My1lODM5MjJmNzcwYzgiLCJhY2NvdW50SWQiOiI2OTdiOGE0NmMzYTNjN2MxYzdiMmMyMmYiLCJwYXRoIjoibWVkaWEvY2xpcHMvNmEzNjlhZTcyNzNmY2Y1YzI0NjQzYjhjL3BvZGNhc3Qtc3R1ZGlvLVRlZGZqLWNvbXBvc2VyLTIwMjYtNi0yMF9fMTUtNTEtMzUubXAzIn0=.mp3","summary":"The IRS just opened a 90-day settlement window — after that, it's 40% penalties and a near-total deduction wipeout. If you or any of your clients have ever participated in a syndicated conservation easement, this is the most important episode you'll watch all year. My guest, Victoria Boon, spent over 20 years as an IRS Senior Revenue Agent and Subject Matter Expert inside the Large Business & International Division. She worked directly on the conservation easement enforcement campaign, helped train IRS revenue agents nationwide, and co-authored updates to IRS publications and Form 8824. Today she runs Boon Tax Group and Boon Tax Educators, where she helps taxpayers and tax professionals navigate what the IRS is doing next. We cover what conservation easements are supposed to do, why syndicated deals went off the rails, what the courts are actually finding wrong, and — critically — what to do if you're sitting in one of these deals right now. 🔔 Subscribe for weekly tax strategy breakdowns: https://www.youtube.com/@taxstrategyplaybook ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 📌 CHAPTERS ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 0:00 – Cold Open: 90-Day IRS Settlement Window 0:06 – Show Intro & Why This Episode Matters 2:38 – Meet Victoria Boon: 20 Years Inside the IRS 3:03 – What Is a Conservation Easement?
