Insurance Gone Wild

Stats That Punch Back: Health, Life & Auto by the Numbers


Listen Later

Medical bills that still bankrupt people who have insurance. Life insurance everyone swears is “too expensive” (until they actually check). Auto claims that hit faster than a Dallas hailstorm. In this spicy, stats-soaked episode of Insurance Gone Wild, Dennis and Stephanie drag the numbers into daylight and make them behave. You’ll hear why “I’ve got coverage” can still end in a five-figure out-of-pocket faceplant, how much folks wildly overestimate life insurance (spoiler: a lot), and why urban drivers meet deductibles like they’re old friends. It’s equal parts wake-up call and cheat sheet—snark included—so you can stop letting fine print and averages run your wallet. Bring your questions, park the shame: confusion is normal, surprises are optional.
