Flood for Thought™. The flood risk & insurance podcast.
Dive into the world of flood risk and insurance with Flood for Thought™, a podcast hosted by reThought Flood’s Kevin Thomas. Each episode brings together the experts, innovators, and industry leaders who shape how we understand, manage, and respond to one of nature’s biggest threats.
Conversations that close the gap.
From risk modelers to emergency managers, Flood for Thought™ gets past the headlines to how flood risk actually works — and what brokers, insurers, and communities can do about it.
Floods are one of the most common natural disasters in the U.S., affecting millions — and yet, only 4% of homeowners nationwide have flood insurance.
FEMA communications, death threats, and the Helene misinformation storm.
Former FEMA communications leader Jaclyn Rothenberg, now Senior Vice President of Reputation Management at Avoq, joins Kevin Thomas to reflect on the chaos that surrounded Hurricane Helene — a surge of misinformation, coordinated false narratives, and escalating hate speech and death threats targeting her and other public officials.
The conversation explores what it means to manage crisis communications in real time while facing personal risk, and how communicating information can directly impact disaster response and recovery.
