Oh, dude, so like, the phrase "ready Freddie" is actually a playful reference to the famous rock singer Freddie Mercury from the band Queen. It's like saying you're all set and good to go, just like Freddie was always ready to rock the stage. So, yeah, it's kind of a fun way to show you're prepared, just like Freddie was always ready to belt out those high notes.
