In hook_insert, I'm trying to echo stuff, and none of it shows up. The rest of the function works because the data gets written to the db...

It doesn't show because the page redirects (generally) before it can print your output.

Are you debugging?

If so, then you can exit; right after the echo() to stop Drupal and dump the variables.

If not, you are likely sending:

a) A user message: use drupal_set_message(). http://api.drupal.org/api/5/function/drupal_set_message

b) An admin message: use watchdog(). http://api.drupal.org/api/5/function/watchdog

Search first, ask good questions later.
