0:00.0	Relax, have a siggy. You're listening to The Power Movement.
0:10.4	Welcome to the Powell Movement.
0:13.5	I'm your host, Mike Powell, and this week my guest is David Lash.
0:18.0	I recorded this interview in two parts.
0:20.6	One, a poorly edited version that I did for
0:23.3	another show back in the day. I took the best of that interview, cleaned up the edit, and
0:28.2	continued on. It's about 40 minutes of new stuff, which is pretty good for the conditions I was
0:33.2	recording under. That all plays itself out in the interview with a man that is known as the
0:38.4	criminal in some circles and as a controversial yet successful businessman and others. He's

1:22.6	I'm at Dave Lesch's compound here at Vertica headquarters.
1:26.6	I woke up at 4.30 West Coast time. It's super
1:31.6	late here. I broke my New Year's resolution. A lot of things going on tonight. I've drank a lot of
1:37.2	beer, but we're going to knock this podcast out. Dave Lesh is here. We're getting it done. Dave,
