Inside, Keith breaks down the 2019 disaster drill he ran that everyone laughed at - an earthquake plus a pandemic at the same time - months before COVID did exactly that (22:56). He walks through the stolen-truck insurance claim that got denied... then reversed into a $30,000 check after one 15-minute phone call (25:30). And he reveals the free tools any owner can use to find thei…
