Foreign welcome to another episode of the Audit Podcast. I'm your host Trent Russell and we are guest list today. But what we want to do is considering the time of year and the giving season, at least in the part of the world that I live in, we wanted to give something away to the audience. One of the reasons that I started this podcast was because there is no book on how to be a cae. There's a lot of CEO books, cmo, cdo, now Chief Data Officer books, cfo, like go to Amazon and type in CEO book, CFO book, whatever, type in CAE book. Not a lot of good stuff out there. And that was the case until somewhat recently when Navin Pashrika wrote a book called Getting Ready to Roar, Chief Auditor's Guide, Audit Room to Boardroom. So we are going to have Navin on the show in 2026. But this is something that again, I've been looking for for years. There's various books that do hit on, you know, obviously there's a lot of audit books, but this is the one that I've been looking for and what we've tried to create through the podcast, I've jokingly said we started the podcast because I tried to write a book and spent five minutes on it and then went, I would rather just talk in front of a microphone instead of having to do this. So book writing is not for me. So this, this was again, this is the goal for the podcast for a long time is like, let's tease out what a CAE typically does. Let's get their guidance and let's share it across everyone who is current CAE or looking to become a CAE just to help the profession. Now I think we have it in a much more compact way in Navin's book. If you need further proof of like, even if you, when we give the book away, if you don't get it, why you should go ahead and get it Anyway, for those that are familiar with Hal Garon, he's been on the show multiple times. He's on Richard Chambers top Internal Audit Thought Leaders list, I think three, four, five years in a row. However long Richard's been doing it, Hal has always been on the list. If you follow Hal on LinkedIn, you also know he reads like a book a week or a book a day. It's kind of hard to keep up, honestly. But he reads a lot of books and posts about it very consistently. To say he's read X amount of books so far this year, I think he wants to read like a Book a week. Anyway, Hal reads a lot of books. And so I came across this post from Hal a month ago where he basically said the same thing or is echoing the same sentiments and thoughts that I have on getting ready to roar and said, it's really great. It's really great. He bought it himself. He also is sharing it with basically anyone who will listen to him. And so again, this just kind of further adds to why I think everyone should check this out. I've had people in these, like tech startups recently who that I've talked to and they reach out and they go, you know what, point me to some resources. Or they came across the podcast and go like, I'm learning about the industry through the podcast. What else do you have? And I go read this book. This is the one that I would highly recommend in addition to some Norman Mark stuff and some Richard Chambers stuff. But anyway, with all of this said, what we are doing is we are going to give away one copy of the book and how we're going to do it is somewhat raffle style. So you should see today is going to be a Tuesday. You can see how well I thought this out. So on December 23rd today we will post about this on LinkedIn. You can go to either the audit podcast and find it from there, or you can go to Trent Russell, my LinkedIn profile, find from there, engage with the post, add some kind of comment. We're not going to do like in the post. We're not going to say like comment to get the book, but we're going to do it through the podcast instead. And so do that. And we will just let literally any comment is fine and we will raffle that off the other way. Or in addition to that, you can, if you go to either itunes or Spotify and leave a review of the podcast on there, like a written review as well as I think after you write it, you have to hit like, like the 3, 4, 5 stars, whatever it is, we'll throw you in there for an additional entry. We're going to go based on the honor system on those. I know that for comments, usually it's not someone's first and last name, but if the comment is left by boy mama5 and I know you're a single dude, I'm probably going to exclude that entry from the contest. So you can take that screenshot, you can send it to me on LinkedIn, you can email it to me. My email's out there on the Internet, pretty easy to find. But if not Trent T rnt Russell R U S S E L L at g s kanalytics.com send that over to me. We'll do a drawing over the break over the next week and then we will announce the winner and get that shipped out to you again. If you aren't the winner, I would still highly recommend going to Amazon and checking the book out. With that said, Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, enjoy the time off for those that have it. So with that said, Merry Christmas, Happy New Year, all the good stuff. We will see you all in 2026. Our episode our first episode in 2026 is from our friend Pat Niemann over ey who's going to talk about 2026 risks to keep an eye out on. So we'll see you again in 2026. Take care everybody.
