Kristine Honey is our Markets Manager at MyNewMarkets.com. Here are 5 things to know about 'Honey':
 
 
 
1. I have a phobia of cotton balls. If you were to come at me with a platter full of them I would run.
 
2. I have never lived anywhere other than San Diego. I have visited 40 states and 8 countries but nothing else felt like home.
 
3. My favorite word is "you." There's some kind of power behind those 3 letters especially when it follows "I love."
 
4. The Honeys of my family came here from Wells, England in the 1920s with their creation of Honey Brothers bread. Almost could have been the new wonder bread if it hadn't have been for the pesky depression.
 
5. The craziest request I received through the MyNewMarkets was for cuddling insurance. A new business had opened up offering cuddling services. Through the power of the site offering up the most bizarre of coverage, I was able to get them help!

Why a podcast? Also: Work comp issue alert.

 
 
How (and Why) to Start a Podcast
 
As the story goes, Becky Schroeder and Laird Rixford were in a bar at a conference talking about insurance stuff. People overhearing their conversation commented about how entertaining it was, and thus, the Insurance Happy Hour podcast was born.

If you've been thinking about podcasting but don't know where to start, you should

Special thanks to Laird Rixford, CEO and Becky Schroeder, Senior VP of Sales & Marketing at ITC

Howard Simkin is out SE Sales Manager at Insurance Journal. Five cool things about him:
 
 
 
1. I love watching and playing any sport that has a defense. (Think basketball and hockey, not bowling.)
 
2. I really enjoy being a father to my 13 year old son Zach. We have become avid mountain bikers and it is great having a hobby we can participate in together on a weekly basis.
 
3. I have got to give thanks to my parents for instilling an appreciation and joy for music.
 
4. I have played tuba, upright bass and other instruments over the years, but guitar has been a lifelong passion.
 
5. I'm looking forward to camping and other outdoor adventures along with a renewed focus on health, fitness and fun this year.
