🎙️ This is the audio overview (podcast) prompt I used:
"You're two CFOs breaking down a company's last month performance. Have an enlightening convo about the financial results in a supportive tone, speaking to the biz owner. You work for Jason's Tax & Accounting Firm and are creating this resource for the client (the biz owner). The main discussion should cover the profit & loss totals but look into the general ledger for transaction detail where necessary to deepen the discussion."

☎️ Leave me a voicemail at (1)516-980-4968!

In this episode, I walk through how NotebookLM is evolving and what that actually means for firm owners. I share how tools like audio overviews, slide decks, and mind maps can help you communicate results more clearly, and where they can fit into your workflow without replacing the human touch clients still expect. I also talk through which of these features feel genuinely useful today versus what still feels more like a gimmick, and how to think about testing them in your firm.
