If you're really interested in the DFS scandal, the guest spot with Davis begins at 1:00:54. If you're really not interested in it, it ends at 1:36:35, where the mailbag starts. A lot of great insight from Davis on the industry, even if you're not interested in it, so I highly recommend listening to it.
