Every week, Forbes-featured CPA and Right Choice Accounting Solutions CEO Albert Hurston breaks down the stories making headlines in business, culture, and entrepreneurship and gets to what nobody else is talking about... the real bottom line.

The show where the headlines meet the financials, and somebody finally explains what it all means.

This isn’t an accounting podcast. It’s an entertaining small business show hosted by a CPA who actually has a personality. Real talk on current events. Real lessons from building a real business. A live game segment where the team separates fact from fiction. And straight answers to the questions small business owners are actually asking.

Medicine in the candy. Education embedded in entertainment. Built for the business owner who wants plain English and someone in their corner year-round.

New episodes every week.
