I remember when that place used to be called Ironwood studios. Stu is known far and wide for having an incredible over the top gear collection and being a super great guy and a killer engineer.

This episode could’ve been a lot longer! And I would love to see a tour of the whole studio because it’s been years since I’ve been up there. Thank you Larry for putting all this together.

This is lovely, Larry and Stu. I'm a Seattleite, never been to Avast, but this is such a friendly interview I want to book some time there someday.
