INTERVIEW
JAMES: All right. Welcome back for yet another episode of the InsurTech Geek Podcast. I am your InsurTech geek James Benham, live from our studio here in beautiful College Station, TX, that's right, its God's country. We are talking about all thing's insurance tech, with two people who live in Texas. Myself, and Mr. Rob Galbraith. Rob, how you doing today - not joining us from Texas?
ROB: Alright yeah. Good to be on James. Appreciate it. Super great to connect. Yeah, I am from San Antonio, but happened to be speaking to you today from AF Group headquarters in Lansing, MI.
JAMES: Awesome. The other place that has the other part of my heart. Up there In Michigan. Now you grew up in Michigan, then you went to Michigan State but then you came down here to God's country, and did what, 20 years here in Texas and you are still here?
ROB: Yeah-yeah. Absolutely. It is somewhat ironic James because this year 2019, was the year that I was going to spend more time in Texas than in Michigan. But I happen to have a job change, I worked for USA for almost four years in San Antonio and then started at AF Group in April, which is based in Lansing MI, so I'm up here around one week every month so Michigan is not going out without a fight, man.
JAMES: I tell you what, and it should not. And especially not in the summer you know? I just got back from my three months up there. I do June July and August in beautiful Southwest Michigan on the beaches there and I love Michigan, in the summer. And I always have to qualify that. The fall, the summer's great, the falls are alright, those other two seasons are kind of tough though.
ROB: They are brutal yeah. As a kid growing up for, I distinctly remember being outside at recess when everybody is making igloos and started snowball fights and all of that. I was like, when is recess is over? This suck. I am going inside; it is damn cold out here.
