Today, we're pretending it's August 24, 2024, as Kenny and Mike sit down with Pete Waterman to talk about his backstory and what inspired him to apply to become the new FedRAMP Director. 

Spoiler alert: we discuss frustration, bureaucracy, and a wild career move. Also these things:

- Pete's Origin Story – Every hero has one. - Government Tech: Why Is It So Hard? – Bureaucracy, risk, and the myth of FISMA jail. - The Future of FedRAMP – Can it get faster?  - Motorcycles & Risk Management – How intercontinental motorcycle camping trips bring perspective. - Compliance Theater - "Can I get a screenshot of that?"

This episode is equal parts insightful, hilarious, and maybe a little chaotic—just the way we like it.
