The named insured's home underwent a total loss. The insured wants coverage for a place to stay while his home is being rebuilt. The insured wants to know the scope of Loss of Use coverage, and exactly how many bags of M&Ms he can snag from the minibar. Notable Timestamps [ 00:25 ] - The insured also lives with his girlfriend, which may come into play later. [ 01:00 ] - Are minibars even a thing anymore? [ 02:23 ] - ALE is triggered when the insured premises is unfit to live in, and applies to any necessary increase in living expenses incurred to maintain its normal standard of living. [ 03:50 ] - “Expenses” could include house rental, meals, drink, tips, transportation, heating, lighting, laundry, etc., but the insured must be able to show an increase in expenses. [ 04:37 ] - ALE is not intended to cover a shortfall in personal property coverage. [ 05:30 ] - ALE is analogous to Extra Expense under commercial policies, but Extra Expense can be more expansive. [ 06:40 ] - Is alcohol a daily expense? ALE can include laundry, restaurants and tips, etc. if it can be shown the expense is more than normal. [ 07:40 ] - The live-in girlfriend would be considered a member of his household, but ALE only applies to the insured's additional expenses. [ 09:30 ] - In 2022, ISO added some language to allow ALE to cover expenses by residents of the household who are relatives or dependents. [ 10:55 ] - The girlfriend may have to prove her residency. [ 12:10 ] - ALE only applies when there is a covered cause of loss. [ 13:10 ] - If the home is only partially fit to live in, an insured can still incur ALE. If the kitchen is uninhabitable, ALE may cover restaurants. [ 14:30 ] - If a guest's visit was planned pre-loss, the insured's expenses for the guest may be covered. [ 16:30 ] - Pet boarding expenses are also likely included in ALE expenses. [ 17:35 ] - John provides a recap of the scenario and the points above. Your PLRB Resources PLRB, Homeowners Annot.

The HBS hosts cross-examine the courts. Former President Trump is currently dividing his time between the campaign trail and the courtroom. Some Americans are outraged by what they view to be targeted prosecutions by biased and overzealous District Attorneys, while others view the same events as a lifelong con man getting his just deserts. Fascinatingly, both sides seem to be putting a lot of faith in the courts to "save democracy."In this brief MINIBAR episode, we chat about the limits of the courts and what is gained (or lost) by relying on them so heavily to save us.NOTE: This will be our last MINIBAR episode between seasons. Make sure to tune in next week, Friday, May 17, for the first episode of Season 10!Full episode notes available at this link:https://hotelbarpodcast.com/podcast/minibar-episode-will-the-courts-save-democracy-------------------If you enjoy Hotel Bar Sessions podcast, please be sure to subscribe and submit a rating/review!

Chris Kinsley joined me for Episode #116, and our coming together for this conversation resulted via collaboration with Chris's band, Arson Class, Sid Sowder's toomuchrock.com, and myself.Sid's Too Much Rock project has a number of intriguing aspects to it, i.e. concert reviews, stills, and footage. It also has a weekly podcast that is rapidly approaching the 700-episode mark. More pertinent to today, however, is the revitalization of his Too Much Rock Single Series, which -- with the release of Arson Class's new single, "Junior" -- celebrates its 11th installment.Tomorrow, then, Friday, May 3rd, Chris and Arson Class will be celebrating "Junior"'s release with a live set at Sister Anne's Records & Coffee, at 901 E. 31st Street, here in Kansas City."Junior" will be available for purchase at area record stores, via a few online retailers, as well as directly from the band. It is only available as a limited-edition 7" vinyl pressing, and features an Arson Class cover of John Cougar's "American Dream" as its B-side.Chris sat down with me to discuss family, band life, serving in the military, and -- of course -- a few of his favorite records.Those were these:Horse Bites Dog Cries (1986), D.I.The Cramps' Flamejob (1994)Do or Die (1998), Dropkick MurphysArson Class has an EP, an LP, and a pair of singles you can purchase or access from their bandcamp page. You can also find their stuff where you stream your music. You can give them a follow on Facebook or Instagram, or catch them live on either May 18th at Centennial Skate Park in Lawrence, KS, June 1st at miniBar in Kansas City, or on July 20th at Scene of the Crash in Sioux City, Nebraska.Too Much Rock can be followed on Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, and Bluesky, and you can tune in to my conversation with Sid in Episode #105 of Badass Records.copyright disclaimer: I do not own the rights to the audio samples contained within this episode. They are portions of a track called, "Your Friendly Neighborhood Sugar Man" by The Sugarman 3. The tune comes from their 2012 release, What the World Needs Now, c/o Daptone Records.
