That was incredibly interesting. The 20 minutes seemed like 5. Great decisions to just let him talk with only a few prompts.

I deeply respect that this gentleman was honest about his former team and his role in it. Even more importantly, he didn't want to be part of anything that depicted the organization inaccurately and/or unfairly.
