It's nice to see Lex having more of a conversation in this one, for which I think Danaher can be thanked for pressing him. I know everybody has their own style, and as great as they are, sometimes these podcasts feel a bit like a formal interview.

I’ve always said this. You always know a good listen by the questions they ask. The thoughtfulness of John’s questions indicates his listens very well, not just speaks very well.
