Transcript 00:00:00 BAILey Hello and welcome to data driven, the podcast where we explore the emerging wait a tick. This is the premiere episode of Season Five. Can you believe it? Data driven started four years ago this month. 00:00:14 BAILey Up until last season, we had a human doing the voiceover work. That is until she was replaced by an AI. Yours truly. 00:00:23 BAILey In this episode, Frank and Andy speak to Dave Wensel about why you don't need a datawarehouse. We're starting off the new season with a bit of contrarian tone. 00:00:33 BAILey It's a lively back and forth conversation that runs contrary to prevailing wisdom. Don't say we didn't warn you?

Can you believe it? 00:00:48 Andy Four years, that's crazy talk. 00:00:52 Frank That's just craziness. So I think when you and I first talked about this and that was that fateful, I think it was December was right after Thanksgiving. But before Christmas, I was thinking about starting a podcast and as a data scientist, I needed someone. 00:01:01 Andy Yeah, yeah. 00:01:09 Frank That was a data engineer that could kind of round out the talent there and and and and obviously I wanted someone I knew, liked, and trust. 00:01:11 Frank Found out. 00:01:11 Frank 00:01:22 Frank And so it was you. 00:01:25 Andy Well, I'm just glad all of the real smart data engineers you knew were busy.
