What if your climate risk assessments could predict the future with greater accuracy than historical data alone?In part two of this conversation on Making Risk Flow, Jake Harding continues his discussion with Joan Saladich, Founder of Geoskop, exploring how insurers can move beyond static climate risk models and embrace a more sophisticated, forward-looking approach to decision-making. Joan explains why annual climate model updates can create misleading conclusions, how vegetation and soil dynamics reshape wildfire risk, and why relying on single-source data leaves carriers exposed to blind spots. The conversation also examines the role of AI and large language models in processing complex climate datasets, emphasising that technology should enhance, not replace, human judgment. Joan outlines a practical framework for combining historical data, future climate projections, alternative statistical models, and socioeconomic context to generate more accurate, explainable, and actionable climate risk intelligence. Fan Mail: Got a challenge digitizing your intake?

What if the climate risk data you're using to underwrite policies is fundamentally flawed?In this first of two-part episode of Making Risk Flow, host Jake Harding speaks with Joan Saladich, CEO and co-founder of Geoskop, about why traditional climate risk scores often fail insurers and what a more sophisticated approach looks like. Joan explains how deterministic ratings and traffic-light systems oversimplify complex climate realities, making them unsuitable for underwriting decisions. He explores the value of probabilistic climate modeling, AI-powered analysis, and uncertainty quantification in assessing evolving risks. The conversation also examines changing reinsurance dynamics, which are pushing more climate-related exposure onto commercial insurers. Joan discusses the importance of validating climate models through measurable accuracy and transparency, while highlighting how outdated scenario assumptions can distort risk assessments. Together, they show how embracing data complexity can create a meaningful competitive advantage in modern insurance underwriting. Fan Mail: Got a challenge digitizing your intake?

Caroline explains why the industry is moving beyond broad regional assumptions towards plot-level intelligence that enables faster underwriting, more accurate pricing, and entirely new insurance products. The conversation explores how insurers can use near-real-time agricultural and climate data to reduce claims exposure, improve operational efficiency, and respond proactively to supply chain volatility. Caroline also shares practical guidance on structuring complex datasets for different business stakeholders, building scalable partnerships, and validating new solutions through low-risk pilots.

What if the insurance industry could move at the speed of modern technology?In this episode of Making Risk Flow, Christian Stobbs, Chief Strategy & Corporate Development Officer at Markel, joins host Juan de Castro to discuss what it takes to build a preeminent specialty insurer in an increasingly technology-driven market. Christian explains why speed, customer obsession, technical expertise, and principled decision-making must work together as a unified competitive advantage. The conversation explores how insurers can localize strategy across international markets, reduce costly operational inefficiencies, and deploy AI to enhance underwriting and claims without losing critical human judgment. Christian also shares why transformational technology initiatives should operate with startup-style urgency, how AI will reshape underwriting roles, and why the insurers that adapt fastest will define the future of specialty insurance. Fan Mail: Got a challenge digitizing your intake?

Episode 416 of Tom Clark's Main Event dives into the surprising departures of Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods from WWE, as Tom breaks down the reported contract restructuring talks, the reality of yearly roster cuts, and why talent being asked to take less money shouldn't shock anyone at this point. From there, the show pays tribute to Ted Turner and his lasting impact on professional wrestling, cable television, and sports entertainment. Tom looks back at Turner's role in the rise of WCW, his belief in wrestling as a key part of cable TV growth, and the tribute paid to him on Dynamite. Tom also shares thoughts on several names and promotions making noise across the wrestling landscape, including NJPW, ROH, and AEW, while also discussing a few acts that may need a change in direction.

This “Best of the Year Thus Far” episode of Making Risk Flow brings together 11 standout conversations that map how insurance is being reshaped in real time. Across the conversations with AI leaders, risk modelers, and operators, a clear pattern emerges: the gap between leaders and laggards is widening, driven by speed of execution, not just strategy. Industry leaders explore how richer context, whether through spatial intelligence, stateful systems, or agentic workflows, is transforming underwriting from a static, data-driven exercise into a dynamic, decision-driven discipline. But technology alone isn't the answer. Culture, incentives, and human relationships remain critical to unlocking value. Together, these insights reveal an industry shifting from managing risk as a probability to understanding it as a living, evolving system.Fan Mail: Got a challenge digitizing your intake?

You want results. Real, lasting, life-changing results. And the guys are breaking down the ONE investment that actually delivers... hiring a great personal trainer. But here's the thing... most people quit. Sal, Adam, and Justin go through the top six reasons why people stop working with their trainers, and they pull zero punches doing it. From the cost objection to boring workouts to scheduling excuses, they expose what's really going on AND whether AI can step in and fill the gap. Spoiler alert... AI is NOT the answer. Not because information isn't valuable, but because information was NEVER the point. Google has existed for decades. Fitness magazines have been free at the library forever. The real value of a great coach is the human relationship, the behavioral steering, the ability to READ you when your data says one thing but your face says another. That's something no chatbot can replicate... at least not yet. This episode also covers live caller coaching, a 55 minute intro packed with fitness, fat loss, muscle gain, diet talk, and current events, AND a wild tangent about P90X making a comeback with a brand new program. You do NOT want to miss the guys reacting to those training pillars. Plus there is a brand new program, MAPS Push Pull Legs, dropping this month at 40% off. This one is for YOU if you are serious about building a real physique with a smart, effective split.

What if real-time data and AI could transform compliance from a regulatory burden into a competitive advantage?In this episode of Making Risk Flow, Pierre-Henri Janssens, CEO and Cofounder of Topograph, joins host Jake Harding to rethink compliance in insurance from first principles. They discuss why treating compliance as a regulatory burden limits growth, while real-time data and transparent workflows turn it into a competitive advantage. Pierre-Henri explains how connecting directly to official registries improves data accuracy, how vertical AI enhances document extraction, and why prioritizing high-impact signals prevents data overload.The conversation also explores the build-versus-buy dilemma, the complexity of scaling across jurisdictions, and how orchestrating best-in-class solutions accelerates onboarding and improves conversion. It's a pragmatic look at how insurers can transform compliance into measurable business value.Fan Mail: Got a challenge digitizing your intake?

Sponsors: Rho Nutrition: rhonutrition.com/discount/mindpump MAPS PPL: mapsppl.com  Full body or Push Pull Legs... which one actually wins? You are going to walk away knowing exactly which style of training fits YOUR goals, YOUR lifestyle, and YOUR experience level.  If you have ever wondered why you are not getting the pump you want from full body training... or why your split routine keeps falling apart because you keep skipping leg day... this episode is going to hit different. Adam breaks down how he personally evolved from full body training all the way to a double PPL split during his peak physique competition years, and WHY that progression made total sense. Sal lays out the intensity, recovery, and exercise selection differences that most people completely overlook when comparing these two approaches.   Key Topics • Full body training protects you when you miss a workout because you never skip an entire muscle group the way you do on a split routine • With a PPL split, missing one day means missing an entire category of movement, and the day people skip most is almost always leg day • Total weekly volume can be identical between full body and split routines, but the exercise selection looks completely different: full body leans compound, splits open the door to isolation and sculpting work • Split routines allow higher training intensity per session because you are not hitting that muscle group again for a full week, meaning you can push harder without it hurting your next workout • Full body routines are shorter per session when volume is matched because you warm up for each compound lift separately, while a PPL session only requires one warm up before you fly through the rest • You CAN spot build specific muscle groups through resistance training even though you cannot spot reduce fat, and split routines lend themselves naturally to prioritizing lagging areas • Adam ran a double PPL (six days per week, PPL twice) during his peak competition years, strategically reducing volume on less important muscle groups and adding volume to whatever he was trying to bring up for the next show • The pump you get from training one body part in a single session is dramatically greater than the pump from a full body session, and that experience matters for long term consistency and muscle connection • Full body training is better for beginners because it teaches appropriate intensity and movement practice, while the inability to fully recover before hitting the same muscle again punishes those who tend to overtrain • Split routines are an easier mental sell on low energy days because a chest, shoulders, and triceps session feels far less daunting than squatting, pressing, rowing, and overhead pressing all in one session   Timestamps: 0:00 Intro 0:20 MAPS PPL  0:49 Sponsor: Rho Nutrition 2:07 Full body vs. split overview 2:28 What full body and split routines actually are 3:13 Adam's progression from full body to split 4:42 Why missing one day destroys a split 5:34 Why beginners should train full body 6:51 How exercise selection changes between full body and split routines 8:17 Spot building 9:38 The pump 10:24 Why split routines tend to be faster even at equal volume 11:43 Intensity differences 13:41 Using splits to bring up lagging muscle groups 17:44 Adam's double PPL strategy 19:46 How to adjust volume 20:00 Splits are an easier pill to swallow on low energy days 20:40 Sal's personal experience switching to a PPL style split 21:35 What the data actually says 23:42 MAPS PPL details, discount code, and at home version

What if insurance workflows could evolve faster than regulation itself? In his third appearance on Making Risk Flow, Bryan Falchuk, best-selling author, speaker,  life coach and President and CEO of PLRB, joins host Jake Harding to rethink modernization of Insurance from first principles. They discuss why layering AI onto legacy systems only reinforces the iteration trap, while agentic AI enables carriers to redesign processes around real-time data orchestration. Bryan explains why implementation can shrink from years to weeks, how orchestration replaces brittle workbenches, and why design thinking is the unlock for cultural change. The conversation also explores the shifting role of underwriters and claims professionals, from data processors to strategic advisors. It's a clear-eyed look at how insurers can build adaptive, future-ready operations without wholesale system replacement today.Fan Mail: Got a challenge digitizing your intake?

A big initiative is taking place on St. Paul's East Side, thanks to PPL. The President and CEO of Project for Pride In Living, Karla Henderson, shared the details with Vineeta on The WCCO Morning News.

In this episode of Making Risk Flow: Exploring the Ecosystem, host Jake Harding sits down with Jay Wallace of VulnCheck about how real-time exploit intelligence is reshaping cyber insurance. They unpack why traditional CVSS scoring falls short and how modeling threat actor behaviour offers a clearer picture of risk. Jay explains how carriers can use machine-readable data feeds to automate underwriting and continuously monitor exposure post-binding. The conversation also highlights the value of proactive threat notifications in reducing claims and strengthening client trust. Jay and Jake also explore how AI and automation enhance, not replace, analysts, and why the most successful insurers are shifting from a profit-centric mindset to a partnership-driven approach focused on prevention, resilience, and long-term value creation.Fan Mail: Got a challenge digitizing your intake?

In this episode of Making Risk Flow: Exploring the Ecosystem, host Juan de Castro sits down with Nicolas Zerbib, Co-President and CIO at Stone Point Capital, to unpack how AI is reshaping, not replacing, the insurance brokerage model. Nick explains why retention and complexity remain the strongest defenses against disruption, and how brokers can use AI to improve efficiency without losing their edge. From reducing operating costs to enhancing onboarding and preserving institutional knowledge, AI emerges as a powerful enabler rather than a threat. The conversation also highlights the structural advantages of the broker channel, including regulatory accountability and E&O risk, which AI cannot easily replicate. For brokers and investors alike, this episode offers a clear, tactical playbook for thriving in a rapidly evolving insurance landscape.Fan Mail: Got a challenge digitizing your intake?

In this episode of Making Risk Flow: Exploring the Ecosystem, host Jake Harding speaks with Nick Franz, founder of Altitude Intelligence, on why traditional underwriting data can obscure true risk exposure. Due to his background in intelligence, Nick has asked that we protect his identity. Nick shares how geospatial and spatial intelligence, rooted in military tradecraft, can transform insurance decision-making. They explore why risk must be understood as a dynamic system, not a static label, and how embedding context at data ingestion enables faster, more accurate underwriting. From identifying hidden dependencies to avoiding outdated datasets, the conversation reveals how leading insurers are building a durable competitive edge. The takeaway is clear: those who integrate intelligence-driven insights today will outperform, while others risk compounding losses and blind spots.Fan Mail: Got a challenge digitizing your intake?

In this episode of Making Risk Flow: Exploring the Ecosystem, host Juan de Castro speaks with Sam Lewis, VP of Product, Engineering, and Data at Cytora, about how agentic AI is reshaping insurance workflows. They explore the shift from manual, fragmented processes to seamless, stateful systems that use memory and context to manage end-to-end submissions. Sam explains why the real barrier to digitization has been behavioral, not technical, and how designing for zero workflow disruption drives adoption among brokers. The conversation unpacks how AI agents increase underwriting capacity, improve responsiveness, and enable more consistent risk selection. They also discuss routing submissions intelligently, closing data gaps through enrichment, and freeing underwriters to focus on judgment-based decisions. The result is a more scalable, efficient, and accessible insurance ecosystem powered by always-on automation and intelligent orchestration.Fan Mail: Got a challenge digitizing your intake?

In this episode of Making Risk Flow: Exploring the Ecosystem, host Jake Harding speaks with Jon Francis, Chief Product Officer at Chimnie, about why the future of property insurance underwriting depends on transparent, high-quality data. Jon explains how flawed or overly averaged property data can distort rebuild cost models, misprice risk, and ultimately drive adverse selection across insurance portfolios. He outlines practical methods for validating external data providers at scale, including large-volume testing to uncover hidden discrepancies that vendor samples often miss. The conversation also introduces a structured approach for transitioning to more accurate data systems while maintaining internal trust and regulatory confidence. From uncovering edge-case property characteristics to enabling frictionless quote journeys, Jon shows how granular property intelligence can become a powerful competitive advantage for insurers willing to modernize their risk data infrastructure.Fan Mail: Got a challenge digitizing your intake?

In this episode of Making Risk Flow, host Juan de Castro speaks with Bill Harris and Drake Slaikeu-Lawhead of ITC Vegas about how insurance growth hinges less on tools and more on connection. They explore how Insurtech Connect's “neighbourhood” model helps carriers, brokers, and agents navigate 700+ vendors by organising solutions around real business needs. The conversation dives into AI's impact on distribution, streamlining ACORD processing, claims, and upstream risk transfer, while reinforcing that independent agents remain essential for trust-based advice. As pilots shrink from years to months, speed to impact becomes the new competitive edge. Yet in a digital-first era, they argue that face-to-face interaction still drives the most valuable outcomes. Serendipity, not just software, is what truly keeps risk flowing.Fan Mail: Got a challenge digitizing your intake?

In this episode of Making Risk Flow, host Jake Harding speaks with Bryan Falchuk, author of the Future of Insurance series, about why insurance's next competitive edge lies in intelligence, not efficiency. Bryan argues that carriers focus too heavily on operational optimisation when profitability depends on understanding and managing loss ratios. He introduces the “how might we” mindset as a way to break through cultural resistance and reframe constraints as opportunities. The conversation explores AI as a bridge between legacy systems and modern analytics, enabling transformation without massive system overhauls. Bryan also examines how misaligned incentives, complacency, and leadership hubris quietly undermine long-term strategy. Ultimately, he makes the case that curiosity, humility, and proactive risk intelligence will define the insurers that thrive in an era of rapid technological change.Fan Mail: Got a challenge digitizing your intake?

In this episode of Making Risk Flow, host Juan de Castro speaks with David McMillan, former CEO of esureGroup, to unpack how a mid-sized insurer reinvented itself under private equity ownership. Facing COVID-19, reserve pressures, a soft market, and geopolitical disruption, the company leaned into culture, clarity, and modern technology to outpace larger rivals. David shares why building a high-performing team starts with shared values, how blending insurance expertise with external digital talent accelerates innovation, and why cloud-native, API-driven architecture is essential for real-time decision-making. He also explains how to shift boards from traditional ROI forecasts to agile, outcome-based governance. It's a candid conversation about resilience, leadership under pressure, and why staying smaller, more agile, and hence, faster can be a lasting competitive advantage.Fan Mail: Got a challenge digitizing your intake?

In this episode of Making Risk Flow: Exploring the Ecosystem, host Jake Harding speaks with Greg Johnson, CEO of Confianza, and Chief Data Officer John Petricelli about the hidden profitability most carriers overlook. They explore how legacy data strategies leave 20–40% of premium and portfolio value untapped, and why context-driven, niche data sources are reshaping underwriting and renewals. From tenant risk and household composition to commodity-linked replacement costs and behavioural indicators, Greg and John explain how richer inputs create sharper risk selection and pricing accuracy. The conversation also highlights portfolio optimisation as a powerful growth lever, identifying leakage, misclassified exposures, and cross-sell opportunities already within the book. It's a practical discussion on engineering discipline in analytics and building a 360-degree view of risk to unlock measurable competitive advantage.Fan Mail: Got a challenge digitizing your intake?

In this episode of Making Risk Flow, recorded live at the ITC London 2026 event, host Juan de Castro speaks with Richard Hartley, CEO and Founder of Cytora (now part of Applied Systems), about what it really takes to digitize risk across the entire insurance value chain. They explore why transformation fails when insurers focus on isolated workflows instead of interconnected pain points across agents, brokers, and carriers. Richard breaks down how agentic AI is reshaping underwriting, why risk data must be treated as dynamic rather than static, and how channel-agnostic operating models unlock scale. The conversation offers practical insights on automation, buy-vs-build decisions, and what risk digitization will demand in 2026.Fan Mail: Got a challenge digitizing your intake?
