Matt and I went to high school together in Kansas City, Missouri and I hadn’t seen him in a few decades before I ran into him at an event while I was back home in Kansas City where the heart of rock and roll is still beating. The story of Matt’s rise from piano sales to tech kingpin blew me away, and when I heard it, I knew I had to have him on the show.
