INsight - Insurance News

In the last edition of INSIGHT of 2025, it seems all a bit too serious at the moment for a humorous intro. Never fear, we won’t change our ways and will be back with groan-inducing summaries in 2026.

In this week’s edition of INSIGHT, we’re celebrating numbers. It’s episode 226. 226 is part of Aron-son's sequence (look it up if you’re having trouble sleeping). Apparently, 226 is also a happy number, but some of the numbers in this week’s news will leave you feeling a lot less happy. Much like my jokes.

In this week’s special edition of INSIGHT AFTER DARK, we’re getting up close and personal. Yes, we want to know all about you dear listener. Do you like long walks on a beach? Do you drink coconut-and-rum-based cocktails during periods of significant precipitation? Tell us your mother’s maiden name and whether you’ve ever given money to a relative of a Nigerian Prince? Yes, tell us everything…

In this week’s edition of INSIGHT, we’d like to take a moment to thank the English cricket team. They’re the gift that keeps on giving (well at least for two days). Bazball really blows and more than our Editor-in-chief who’s a big fan.

In this week’s edition of INSIGHT, I’m wishing last night’s breaking news came a little earlier so I could make some jokes about emojis; eyeroll emoji; facepalm emoji with a purple shirt; thumbs-down emoji. Instead, we’re still talking about commissions. And like I said to the guy who tried to sell me a coffin, it’s the last thing I need.

In this week’s edition of INSIGHT, we’re channeling our Wall Street Gordon Gekko’s. Life all comes down to a few moments, but unlike the movie, this is not one of them. We asked several financial experts what do you need to do to make a small fortune on Wall Street. They looked at us and suggested a large fortune. Our performance is so abysmal, we’ve been recommended to buy laughing stock.

In this week’s edition of INSIGHT, the team is worried. After all the latest breaking news stories, they’re not quite sure what my introduction will contain. I tried out 10 different introductions to see if they would be okay and no pun in ten did. In the end I told them that they should worry more about me dying. It’s the last thing I’d do. 

In this week’s edition of INSIGHT, we’re in the mood for some classic soft rock. Maybe it’s because I had porridge for breakfast and spent the morning hauling oats around the kitchen.

In this week’s edition of INSIGHT, we’re in the Gold Coast mixing it up with insurance brokers from across the country at NIBA. I thought the opening night was fancy dress so I went as a screwdriver. I certainly turned a few heads.

In this week’s edition of INSIGHT, we’re as good as new. That is to say, we’re learning on the job, we’re discriminating against the old and annoying everyone by listening to New Kids On The Block on repeat.
