Matt Allen
  • Should you carry a firearm on inspections, taking into account high-crime areas, riots and protests, and post-disaster environments?
  • The legal difference between defending yourself in someone’s home vs. in your vehicle, and how to leverage awareness and avoidance instead of brandishing a weapon

  • The single biggest mistake most adjusters make when bouncing between CAT and daily assignments, and how focused commitment can accelerate your career
  • How to build your own “Gucci Adjuster Belt”—step-by-step breakdown of the battle-belt system, MOLLE attachments, dump pouches, and must-have accessories for safety and efficiency
  • Pro tips for staying hands-free and accident-proof on the roof, from tool placement to thin-glove protection


By the end of this podcast, you’ll have a clear self-defense plan, a career-path decision framework, and a blueprint for a custom gear setup that keeps you safe, organized, and professional.
