Festivus for the Rest of Us… and Insurance Companies | The Airing of the Insurance Grievances

It’s time for the annual Airing of the Grievances… insurance edition.

In this episode of Insurance Gone Wild, Dennis and Stephanie vent about the thing everyone in insurance secretly complains about:

📞 endless hold times
🤖 automated systems that solve nothing
📧 underwriting departments that disappear for days
📂 claims adjusters who never call back
💸 rising premiums with shrinking coverage

From fighting phone trees and broken billing systems to commercial underwriting games that make zero sense, this episode is basically therapy for insurance agents… and probably for clients too.

Along the way, they break down:

Why customer service in insurance feels worse than ever
How AI is changing the industry (and not always for the better)
The hidden frustrations behind claims handling and underwriting
Why agents are stuck balancing honesty with carrier relationships
And the phrases that magically make claims departments move faster 👀

If you’ve ever yelled “REPRESENTATIVE!” into your phone while trying to fix an insurance problem…
this episode is for you.
