I’ve been working in the payroll/hr space and wish I found this podcast sooner. Especially love the payroll 101 breakdown episodes and all the knowledge these two gentleman bring to the table. Please continue making content as this is truly an under-appreciated field and there is a lack of tools out there to excel without outwardly processing payroll and/or becoming certified.
