In this episode, Matt chats to the incredible A'Lelia Bundles author of 'Self Made' a mini-series now available on Netflix starring Octavia Spencer. The daughter of formerly enslaved parents, Sarah Breedlove—who would become known as Madam C. J. Walker—was orphaned at seven, married at fourteen, and widowed at twenty. She spent the better part of the next two decades laboring as a washerwoman for $1.50 a week. Then—with the discovery of a revolutionary hair care formula for black women—everything changed. By her death in 1919, Walker managed to overcome astonishing odds: building a storied beauty empire from the ground up, amassing wealth unprecedented among black women, and devoting her life to philanthropy and social activism.
Tune in as A'Lelia gives her thoughts on Hollywood, the power of a story, and behind-the-scenes insights into the making of Self Made.

We are incredibly honored and privileged to have Jessica Cox on this episode of the Matt Brown Show. Jessica holds the Guinness World Record for being the only licensed pilot to fly using her feet. She was born without arms and rejected any bionics as she found day to day tasks easier without bionics. She has been on the Ellen Show and the Oprah Winfrey Network to share her story, listen closely as she talks about her experience on both shows. This is an incredibly inspiring episode about the human spirit and how the only thing stopping you from achieving what you want in life is the story you keep telling yourself about why you can't have it.

MBS350 - Dark Waters with Environmental Attorney Robert Bilott Dec 13, 2021

Show notes

In this episode we bring you living superhero and legend Robert Bilott. He joins us to talk about his journey and the movie about his life 'Dark Waters' of how the lawyer, played by Mark Ruffalo, switched allegiances. As happened in real life, the movie depicts Ruffalo’s Bilott as a lawyer who defends large chemical companies before he is approached for help in 1998 by Wilbur Tennant (Bill Camp), a West Virginia farmer whose land was contaminated by chemical giant DuPont. Inflamed by that injustice, and the complicity of local authorities, the lawyer risks his career as he embarks on a decades-long legal siege of one of America’s most powerful corporations. He works, at first, on Tennant’s behalf, then pursues a class action suit representing around 70,000 people living near a chemical plant that allegedly contaminated drinking water with PFOA, a toxic chemical used in the production of Teflon. In recent years, studies have correlated long-term exposure to PFOA with a number of illnesses, including some types of cancer.
In 2017, Bilott won a $671 million settlement on behalf of more than 3,500 plaintiffs. Those people claimed they had contracted diseases, among them kidney cancer and testicular cancer, from chemicals DuPont allegedly knew, may have been dangerous for decades and allowed to contaminate their drinking water anyway.

This episode is sponsored by SW7.
Sw7 Africa’s First Virtual Accelerator Platform
For B2B SaaS Product-Led Technology Business Funders & Founders.
Sw7 started as we saw many founders bootstrapping and struggling to find a way to get the support they needed when they needed it. Founders were constantly being pushed into three or six month programmes that took a small number of businesses, excluded many worthy applicants along the way and “success” in joining these programmes usually meant giving away equity.
