Cash, Payroll, and Petty Cash Puzzles: Bookkeeping isn’t just “data entry”—it’s detective work that keeps your books accurate and your business safe. Our favorite Bookkeeping Mensch, Paul Rosenblum, gets into the messy reality of handling petty cash, payroll checks, tips, and owner contributions in this episode, using a real client case as a guide. From partner paychecks cashed through the register, to undocumented utilities paid with personal money, to tips that must be reported correctly, Paul explains how these situations can create a jigsaw puzzle if not recorded properly. He shows where cash on hand belongs, how to document unusual transactions, and why open communication between business owners and bookkeepers is essential to avoid costly mistakes. Because in bookkeeping, every dollar tells a story—and it’s never just data entry.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
