28. You've been with Epoch for a very long time. Who is the best manager you have ever worked for since your time there?

We aren't really structured that way, but I know what you are asking.

I have to say that the person who taught me the most is Clay Andrews. I learned so much from him and admire his keen sense of logic to this day. Clay has great instincts and is easy to work with. It made for a really good learning situation. He made it fun too.

Joel has always been the technical genius and just way over my head with his ideas, but since becoming our CEO, I've learned a lot about his business philosophy and about protecting assets. Joel is a humble guy, riding a bike to work almost every day. He's not about "bling" but strictly about his business and doing things for the right reasons. That's a great type of guy to have leading your company.

And I can't leave out Esther Martinez whom I communicate most with these days. She has a very clear perception and a heavy Spanish accent. She's the best person I know to brainstorm with. She knows how to ask the right questions and thinks many steps ahead of the immediate situation. She's one smart lady I have a lot of respect for.

29. If processing for adult sites was declared illegal in the morning, what would you be doing for a living?

What if there were no hypothetical questions? :)

Well, other than trying to find a place where it would NOT be illegal and setting up shop there.... I guess I'd be doing something creative. I am surrounded by so much talent. Artists, photographers, singers, directors, DJ's, etc... that I would probably try to find a way to move into something creative where I could put these talented people together.

Either that or just sell everything, buy a 40' sailboat, and travel for a while.

30. What kind of porn turns you on Rand? Can epoch legally process it?

Believe it or not, I don't really look at porn. I see more at a show than I do anywhere else.

But I can assure you that if I did it would definitely be something Epoch would process for.

Before I finish up the last two questions, I wanted to take the opportunity to thank Sleazy for this dubious honor and Rochard for putting the questions together. The Ambush Interview series is a GFY tradition and I'm honored to be honored.

Also, thanks for all the kind words from everyone else who posted in this thread. I've been doing this for over nine years and have had so much fun along the way. I have really enjoyed getting to know so many of you and look forward to many more years of continued success.

Thank you.

31. What can the adult industry look forward to from Epoch in the near future? Any big plans or surprises for us?

Epoch is never finished fine tuning. We are continuously looking for ways to do what we do more efficiently or by offering new tools and features. We do indeed have a new product coming out before the end of the year. We're not yet ready to announce it though. Do stay tuned.

As far as big... yes. A surprise? Probably not. :upsidedow

The epitome of style and class! Rand, you were one of the first people I met in the industry and I remember you stood out because you were so genuinely gracious. Great interview! Congrats!:thumbsup
