    Protect Yourself

    Worth a Listen welcomes back Wes Chancler, Agency Manager at Texell Insurance, for his second appearance on the show. In this episode, Chris sits down with Wes for an overview on personal insurance, like the coverage most people carry but rarely understand. He breaks down what auto insurance actually protects, why uninsured and underinsured motorist coverage matters more than most drivers realize, and how everyday factors like mileage, driving history, and a teenager's grades can move a premium up or down. From there, the conversation turns to homeowners insurance, including what's covered, what's not, and an overlooked benefit called loss-of-use coverage. Renters insurance, landlord-tenant coverage, and pet insurance policies are discussed, and Wes shares his take on what separates a good insurance agent from one who is not so helpful.
