Matt Fox: Charged by Police for #LetUsPlay
from It is Discernable® · host Matt Wong
Matt Fox is a former pro athlete, personal trainer and 'Fitness Influencer of the Year 2020'. He publicly threw away a council 'play ground closed' sign to much applause but unfortunately QLD Police turned up on his doorstep the following morning and have now charged him with 'stealing' which carries a maximum sentence of 5 years in jail. I interviewed Matt to find out why he did what he did, whether he regrets it, and the ramifications. We also explore fitness and diet during lockdowns.
