The last 9 months podcasting as RiskCellar has been a lot of fun; especially hanging with Nick Hartmann on Monday nights and virtually meeting while drinking a new wine every week. We've had some amazing guests like: Leslee D. Miller, Greg Appelhof, Justin Whitehead, Luke Aslesen, Chris Lokken, Michael de Geus, Pamela Abbate Dattilo and more. We plan to cover, broadly, the Micromobility Industries America conference here and get some #micromobility #founders on the pod this fall and winter. Our friends at Zag Daily covered RiskCellar this week in an interview I did with them and I couldn't be happier with the story. Thanks Ben Hubbard and team! and thanks to everyone that makes RiskCellar possible like Ascend and Micme! We're having a blast. This weeks' episode will come out Friday. Thanks all!

🎙️ Do you believe in Unicorns? No, not the glittery ponies that look like they’re straight out of a 6-year-old’s fever dream. I’m talking about those mythical companies that are rarer than a day without a cat meme on the internet—companies that actually change the game. We just had Andrew Wynn co-founder of Ascend, on the podcast. Now, this guy didn’t start his journey like most tech entrepreneurs—nope, he was out there in the Peace Corps doing good in the world before he got his big break at Instacart, a company so legendary it might as well have its own theme song. Fast forward, and Andrew’s out here shaking up the insurance industry. Yes, you heard that right—insurance. If you thought that was the most boring thing on the planet, think again. Ascend isn’t just a sponsor—they’re our partner in crime. And let me tell you, their story is cooler than your uncle’s one-liners at Thanksgiving. So, want to know how a tech whiz went from delivering groceries to delivering groundbreaking insurance solutions? Curious why Ascend is the best thing to happen to insurance since, well, ever? Tune in, and prepare to be amazed… or at least mildly entertained. 🎧 #Unicorns #TechMagic #InsuranceButCool #Entrepreneurship #Podcast Brandon Schuh Nick Hartmann Ascend

🚨 Did You Hear? RFK Jr. allegedly took a dead bear he found and tried to stage a bike accident in Central Park! 🐻🚴♂️ Sounds wild, right? Even RFK Jr. fanboy Nick Hartmann hadn't heard that one. Strange, isn’t it? 🤔 At RiskCellar Pod, we mix things up—some episodes are light-hearted, others take a more serious tone. This week? A bit of everything: 🗳️ #Minnesota's Governor #TimWalz got the nod for VP on the #Harris2024 ticket. 🍷 We sipped on a crisp #KimCrawford Sav Blanc and dissected Utah's surprising move to let #captive insurance companies represent HOAs—a decision we found might be risky for homeowners depending on the financial setup. 💼 Plus, one of our favorite wholesalers, Ryan Specialty // RT Specialty, just made a blockbuster acquisition of US Assure for over $1B! Insurance meets excitement. Curious about these topics? 🍷💼 Click that follow button, join the conversation, and let’s keep the momentum going! 💥 Shoutout to our partner Ascend and our amazing editor Micme—it truly takes a village. 🙌 #RiskCellar #Podcast #InsuranceAndWine

Did you hear that RFK Jr. took a dead bear he found and put it in Central Park? Trying to stage and accident with a bike? Well, RFK JR fanboy Nick Hartmann had not heard that either. Is that weird? I think so. The picture below is a bit dark... apologies. Sometimes we like to bring some light-hearted stories and factoids to the Cellar and sometimes we like to make it a bit more serious. But this week is was a mixed bag. I brought home two new pug babies last week which has been a lot of fun for my family. #Minnesota #Governor Tim Walz get's the nod for VP by the #Harris2024 campaign. We drank a #KimCrawford Sav Blanc. Utah took a strange stance and has allowed #captive #insurance companies to represent homeowners associations (HOA's). We thought it was a somewhat irresponsible proposition for homeowners depending on what the financial requirements are and if the aim would be group captives rather than single parent/cell. One of our fav wholesalers, Ryan Specialty // RT Specialty has had a large acquisition with US Assure for >$1B. Exciting stuff happening in the world of insurance (and wine) and RiskCellar Pod is here to bring it to you. Please make sure to subscribe, follow, like, comment and help us keep gathering momentum. Thanks to our partner, Ascend. Thanks to our editor Micme. It takes a village. Episode Links below
