  • Awesome and innovative!

    This is one of my favorite insurance and risk related podcasts! Nick Lamparelli does a great job extracting great information from his guests. Also, since he is an expert in underwriting and flood coverage it is fascinating to hear his perspective as well. Every guest and episode provides unique perspectives and valuable insights into the inner workings of the insurance industry. Love it!
