• How to Reduce Bookkeeping Errors in QuickBooks Online: S9E10
    2026/07/09

    Online computerized accounting changes almost everything about bookkeeping. But don’t worry, our favorite Bookkeeping Mensch, Paul Rosenblum, is here to help you navigate the potential problems to come from these “advancements.” For example, QuickBooks Online creates problems that QuickBooks Desktop never had, like duplicate sales, mismatched credit card merchant fees, phantom accounts receivable, and sales tax reports that quietly go wrong. Paul draws on 30 years of hands-on bookkeeping experience to outline the challenges the transition creates for business owners and bookkeepers. And of course, he’s got advice on what to look out for to make sure things run smoothly for your QBO experiences.

  • The Hidden Bookkeeping Money Decisions You Make Every Day: S9E8
    2026/06/18

    Bookkeeping isn’t just spreadsheets and accounting software. Our favorite Bookkeeping Mensch, Paul Rosenblum, reflects on how everyday money habits quietly shape our lives, from business spending decisions to the way people think about vacations, groceries, risk, and long-term planning. He explores “the human side of want and need,” showing how emotional spending, financial stress, personal history, and instinct all influence the way we handle money. This conversation reframes bookkeeping as something deeply human, revealing why some of us naturally think like planners, budgeters, and business owners without even realizing it.

  • Why Shared Business Expenses Create Bookkeeping Problems Fast. S9E4
    2026/05/21

    Shared expenses. Missing communication. Bookkeeping chaos. What happens when one business owner starts moving between multiple companies, reimbursable expenses, partnerships, and credit cards… but forgets to tell their bookkeeper what’s actually happening?

    In this episode, our favorite Bookkeeping Mensch, Paul Rosenblum, walks through a real bookkeeping situation involving reimbursements between businesses, partnership accounting, balance sheet loans, and how one missing piece of communication nearly created major tax filing problems. But this episode isn’t really just about bookkeeping entries. It’s about the growing communication gap between business owners and bookkeeping teams, especially in today’s remote work environment.

    If you’ve ever thought bookkeeping was “just data entry,” or assumed your accountant or bookkeeper would somehow magically figure everything out later, this episode explains why that mindset can become expensive fast.
