In this episode of The Bank Tellers, Mike McCrary, 1st VP at LSBX (part of Lincoln Savings Bank), joins Zach Anderson Pettet to share what it’s like to help build one of the earliest and longest-standing fintech-bank partnerships in the U.S.
Mike takes us inside LSBX’s 10+ year journey of powering fintechs, lessons learned from the embedded finance boom and bust, and why community banks are still uniquely positioned to lead what’s next.
From the early days of rule-based savings apps to today’s conversations around APIs, risk, compliance, and real-time banking integrations, Mike breaks down how to scale sustainably, and why fintechs that respect banking fundamentals will have the biggest edge going forward.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
