INTERVIEW

JAMES: Tell you what, it was a busy week. It was a good week. We had a lot of stuff going on in the last week. As we record this, it is Friday, July 10th. Meaning we are just rolling off of one of the strangest July 4th weekends in modern history. Lots of fireworks! So, this has got to be driving some a property carrier's nuts because you got to think with the sheer, incredible volume of fireworks sold this last week, there had to be a higher incident rate. There had to be right? Rob, I mean, it had to happen.

ROB: Yeah. You would think, some wild-fires and all sorts of whatever. Yeah.

JAMES: Yeah. Injuries, you got to think there are some people's umbrella policies that are going to be tapped into after people get things blown up in their hands. So, word is that fireworks sales set an all-time record this July 4th. And not by a little bit. And considering that many cities, in fact, most, decided to cancel their July 4th celebrations instead of doing the logical thing and just telling people to space out a little bit, not group up, not holding the event, they just canceled the whole thing. People took it on their own. And I can tell you here in South Haven Michigan, the summer studio for the InsurTech Geek Podcast, I jokingly called it, like a combat air force base, you know what I mean? Like the sheer number of explosions going on at all times. And it was like five days of rolling explosions. It was intense but it has been a busy week. A good one. Raghav you are over in Boston. Was it wicked awesome or was everything canceled?

RAGHAV: Boston's always wicked awesome. We got the Red Sox. We got the Patriots. Lost Tom Brady, but besides that, it is wicked awesome.

JAMES: Yeah you did lose Tom Brady.

ROB: You picked up Cam Newton
