| 10/15/26 | Evan Osnos, Political Journalist at The New Yorker | For 300 episodes, Willy has asked the questions. Now, the tables have turned as award-winning journalist and New Yorker staff writer Evan Osnos takes over the interviewer’s chair and puts Willy in the hot seat, answering YOUR most-asked questions. In a candid and wide-ranging conversation, Willy reflected on the lessons he’s learned from building Walker & Dunlop, the risks that paid off—and the opportunities he wishes he hadn’t missed—the habits that keep him energized and curious, and what 300 conversations with some of the world’s most fascinating leaders have taught him. He also opened up about family, personal reinvention, AI and the future of work, Burning Man, whether he’d ever enter politics, and even the book he may one day write.

| 10/8/26 | Dr. Peter Linneman, Leading Economist, Professor Emeritus, The Wharton School of Business Part 27 | Willy was joined once again by Dr. Peter Linneman for the Most Insightful Hour in CRE, recorded at the 2026 Dominium Capital Partner Summit. With interest rates at 25-year highs and oil-driven inflation adding new uncertainty, what should commercial real estate investors do now? Willy and Peter unpacked why Peter believes rates will eventually come down, what owners facing near-term maturities should consider, and why disappearing concessions could signal a turning point for multifamily. They also explored the extraordinary flow of capital into data centers and why Peter believes the sector could eventually become overbuilt, the outlook for office, today’s shortage of equity capital, and where Peter would invest $100 million in commercial real estate right now.

| 10/1/26 |  Chris Lee, Partner and President of KKR Real Estate | Willy sat down with Chris Lee, Partner and President of KKR Real Estate. Three years after Chris last joined the Walker Webcast, where does he believe the commercial real estate market stands today? Willy and Chris discussed where KKR is deploying capital across credit and equity, opportunities created by the wave of multifamily maturities, and why today’s market demands a highly selective approach. They also explored conviction in senior housing, outlook for the office market, opportunities across Europe, and the impact of higher interest rates. Learn more about your ad choices.

| 9/24/26 | Sean Dobson, CEO of Amherst | On a special episode of the Walker Webcast, recorded at the 2026 Zelman Housing Summit, Willy was joined by Sean Dobson, CEO of Amherst, a leading real estate investment and development firm. Sean explained why today’s housing market looks more expensive than before the Global Financial Crisis — but lacks the same catalyst for a crash. He and Willy also discussed the mortgage lock-in effect, single-family rentals, debt spreads, and the biggest macro risk Sean is watching: stagflation. Learn more about your ad choices.

| 9/17/26 | Paul Cheek, MIT Senior Lecturer, AI Strategist, Entrepreneur & Author | Willy sat down with Paul Cheek, Senior Lecturer at the MIT Sloan School of Management, serial entrepreneur, AI strategist, and author of the new book, No One Works Here, for a conversation about AI, the future of work, and what it takes to build an AI-driven enterprise. They explored why AI is advancing faster than organizations can adapt, why leaders may be looking at AI ROI through the wrong lens, and why adopting AI tools and training alone isn’t enough to drive meaningful transformation. They also dove into Paul’s framework for deciding when AI should-and shouldn’t-do the work, why organizational redesign is essential to realizing AI’s potential, and how leaders can prepare their people and businesses for a future where humans and AI agents increasingly work together.
