Step right up, future truth-seekers and justice defenders! 🌍✨
 Our podcast is about a real-life hero living right here in Washington State – a man with a laptop in one hand, a public records law in the other, and an unshakable belief that government should never meet in secret when the people have a right to know. This is “The Life of Matt Ready” – an audio documentary series about the one and only Matt Ready: healthcare commissioner, software visionary, festival organizer, and possibly the most transparent human in Jefferson County.

Matt isn't just a commissioner on the board of Jefferson Healthcare — he’s a commissioner on a mission. 🧠💡
A mission to:

  • Shine light on the shadowy corners of public meetings ☀️
  • Make sure every voice is heard (even the quiet ones hiding in the back) 🗣️
  • Prevent rogue CEOs from rewriting the rules of public governance 🏛️
  • Stop secret hospital alliances from being cooked up in hush-hush meetings 🤫

🎧 Tune in as we dive into:

  • Matt’s battle to record public meetings when others wanted to press mute 🎤
  • His poetic takedowns of sketchy legal justifications 💥
  • Emails that went missing... and the truth that didn’t! 📧
  • Mysterious executive sessions that may or may not have followed the law 🕵️
  • His fight to keep hospital governance PUBLIC – even when others wanted to hand it over to nonprofits that could meet in private 🤖

🚨 And if that wasn’t enough... He’s also the founder of the Alien Disclosure Festival in Port Townsend, believes democracy needs AI’s help to stay honest, and once proposed hiring a lawyer to audit the lawyers.

In short, Matt Ready might be the most fascinating commissioner in the galaxy. 🌌

This is a podcast about truth. About rules. About resistance. And about one man who refuses to play dumb when something smells off.
