Welcome back to Sound-Up Governance. This is Matt Fullbrook. And honestly, I continue to be kind of stunned by the brilliance of the people who are just, you know, around...everywhere, like one of my oldest friends in the world Sander Trestain.

Welcome back to Sound-Up Governance. This week features the first ever in-person unedited interview segment. I packed up a bunch of gear and set up in my friend's basement to have an unscripted chat about corporate governance, guitars and gigging. The session went back and forth between guitar noodling and truly deep dive governance nerd…

Welcome back to Sound-Up Governance. This episode is like every other episode of Sound-Up Governance... Psych! 

Hi, this is Matt Fullbrook. Since one of the objectives of Ground-Up Governance is to provide me with a platform to express myself, I've decided to try out a new thing. Hot takes and harsh criticism are entertaining. And it turns out I hav…
