Sommer and Joey also explain the top ten audits HR departments should know about. While nothing could scare an employer more than the word 'audit,' there are several ways your small business can benefit from conducting internal audits. Tune in to find out more!

Gabe Ortiz becomes a third-highest ranking officer in all of Texas while his younger brother Larry climbs the ranks in Puro Tango Blast, a notorious Texas Prison gang. Gabe doesn’t know all the details of his brother’s nefarious dealings, and he’s made a point not to ask, to protect their relationship.

To solve Larry’s murder, Gabe, and the whole Ortiz family, must ask each other tough questions.
