Ep.235 - Personal Brand Paradox & Tori Bowie
In a week where:
- UK Government loses legal challenge over giving WhatsApp messages to COVID inquiry.
- Meta releases Threads.
- The average world temperature reaches highest mark in 4 decades of recordkeeping.
- France bans fireworks outside authorised public displays during the Bastille Day holiday weekend.
- A BBC presenter is suspended for allegedly paying for explicit photographs from a young person.
In Society: (9:28) Is everything a brand? Is this Podcast a "brand"? The argument could be made that we're all stuck in a personal brand paradox.
In Music: (24:50) If you want to know about a society in a particular country, you look at what their Hip-Hop community is saying. Take - for example - Egypt and their Hip-Hop a decade after the military coup went down.
In Film: (36:36) I saw a film called "Return To Seoul" a couple of months ago and it's been in my head since. So I found a piece talking about it.
Lastly, in Life: (46:20) After the death of US sprinter Tori Bowie and the subsequent revelation that her death was due to childbirth complications, Friend of 5E and former Relay teammate of Bowie's, Tianna Madison pens a piece about the Black maternal health crisis.
