Episode 100 lands with a twist: we’re finally recording together in person for the first time. After years of remote calls, we sit down with cake, swag, and a live “peanut gallery” to tell the origin story of how The Art of Adjusting Podcast grew from random conversations into a claims adjusting show that now reaches thousands of listeners.

We talk about how we actually met, starting with LinkedIn and a shared love of old-school noir, then moving to Clubhouse during COVID when live audio rooms felt like talk radio for insurance people. That experiment turns into the Daily Claims podcast, and when solo recording gets tough, we team up, split the work, and build something more sustainable. Along the way we share our real career paths into insurance claims, from corporate training with big insurance companies to construction-to-adjusting, plus what expert witness work is really like and why depositions can be maddening.

Then we get practical about the future of the insurance industry: AI in claims, automation, and the hidden training problem no one wants to admit. If AI handles the easy claims, where do new adjusters learn the craft before they’re handed complex files? We also come back to the most human skill in the job, whether you handle property, auto, workers’ comp, or liability claims: trust. Sometimes the best thing you can say is, “I don’t know, but I’ll find out and call you by 4,” and then you actually do it.

Subscribe, share this with an adjuster friend, and leave a five-star review so more people can find the show. What’s one change you want to see in claims over the next five years?
