In this episode of Podcast Gurus, we sit down with Adam Larson, senior podcast producer at the Institute of Management Accountants and host of Count Me In, a podcast spotlighting real voices in the accounting and finance world. Adam also co-hosts a personal podcast, The Larson Parade, sharing stories of love, music, and second chances.

Adam shares how Count Me In evolved from an internal idea to a global platform supporting IMA’s mission, and why podcasting remains his favorite medium for authentic storytelling. He reflects on balancing brand strategy with creative freedom, how he uses tools like CastMagic and Riverside to streamline production, and the surprising overlap between B2B and personal podcasting challenges.

Whether you're producing for a company or your own brand, Adam’s insights into workflow, tools, and storytelling are full of practical takeaways for podcasters at any level.
