  • Summary

  • Episode 8: Liam Malone is a two-time gold medal sprinter — but he has no legs.


    Despite having both his lower limbs amputated before he was two years old and struggling with disability, his life reached a low-point following his mum's death to cancer and learning his brother was a meth addict. Rather than sink, Liam stood tall and competed and broke records at the 2016 Paralympics in Rio de Janeiro. After retiring from athletics, Liam now works for Amazon Web Services and is crazy about technology.


    Liam thinks it's difficult to take Paralympics seriously. He comments on gene editing children with disabilities, competing against a 'hilarious' lack of competition, and wanting to fight Oscar Pistorius. Plus, he sheds light on working at Amazon, AI technologies and the future of Bitcoin.
    The chat is raw, insightful, and ultimately helpful for anyone that struggles to find a sense of belonging.
