We produce Everything Is Insurance, a narrative documentary podcast, and we're working on an episode about who actually pays when a star footballer gets hurt playing for his country at the World Cup. We're looking for insurance professionals who can explain this world clearly and tell real stories from inside it. We'd love to hear from people in these specific roles: • Sports/personal accident underwriters — the people who price the risk on a professional athlete and decide what a policy costs. What do you assess? What's it like watching a match you're financially exposed to? • Sports insurance brokers (especially club or squad cover) — what does a club actually lose when a player is injured on international duty, and how do you protect them? • Sports insurance lawyers / claims specialists — particularly anyone familiar with FIFA's Club Protection Programme, or who has handled disputed athlete-injury or loss-of-value claims. • Industry analysts who track the cost of player injuries to clubs. Ideal: London-market experience (Lloyd's, etc.), but global is welcome. Recording is virtual and relaxed; we send questions in advance. This is a narrative show in the spirit of Planet Money or Search Engine, not a dry trade interview — a chance to make a niche corner of insurance genuinely fascinating to a broad audience. Please include your name, title, firm, a line on your relevant experience, and a real example or story you could speak to. Happy to credit you and your company. NOT looking for: general financial advisors, life/health insurance generalists, PR pitches unrelated to sports insurance, or anyone who can't speak to the athlete/club side specifically.
