Claims Apprentice 2023: Episode five – Claims inflation podcast part two

Having recorded their vox pops this week, things get real as Teams Aspire and Connect go into the studio to record their broadcasts.

Focusing on repair costs, Team Connect are up first, with guest contributor Sandip Sidu from Kennedys to give her take on the topic.

Team Aspire follow, looking at personal injury with their own external expert, Kennedys’ Ben Appleton.

So with the microphones ready, and the ‘on air’ light illuminated outside the studio, the big questions are:
• Who will prove to be a natural when the record button is pressed?
• Which team will have the best chemistry?
• Once recorded, edited and uploaded to Insurance Post, which podcast will get the most clicks – and land either Aspire or Connect the win to make it 2-1?
• And, finally, who is looking most like a potential winner as the apprentices get ready for their big interview with Kennedys’ own Alan Sugar, Claire Mulligan, next week?
