🎧 If You Fail to Plan… You Might Just Flood the Living Room | Insurance Gone Wild

What happens when disaster strikes and you realize your “emergency plan” is just yelling “Grab the dog!” and running for the door? In this episode of Insurance Gone Wild, co-hosts Dennis and Stephanie  dig deep into the uncomfortable (and critical) truth: you probably aren’t as prepared as you think.

From flash floods in Keerville to house fires and heart-stopping kid chaos, Dennis and Stephanie bring the hard facts—sprinkled with humor, real-life experiences, and just enough tough love to get you thinking. 🚨

Whether it’s memorizing emergency contacts (because your phone might be toast), planning fire escape routes, or knowing how to stay actually calm when everything’s on fire (literally or figuratively), this episode is a must-listen for homeowners, parents, and anyone who thinks “I’ll figure it out in the moment” is a plan.

🔥 Bonus: If you’ve never used a fire extinguisher or discussed an emergency meetup spot with your kids, this is your wake-up call.
