Just Keep Livin With Matthew McConaughey
In the third episode of the season, host Kevin Bacon has a captivating conversation with none other than Academy Award-winning actor and philanthropist, Matthew McConaughey. Matthew and his wife Camila are the founders of the Just Keep Livin' Foundation, a nonprofit organization that aims to make a meaningful impact in the lives of youth nationwide.
Kevin and Matthew discuss their lack of mutual projects, sharing a few laughs while discussing the movies they haven't been in together. They discover a mutual feeling toward the city of angels—Los Angeles—as more than just a geographical location but a concept that has shaped their lives. Matthew opens up about the importance of family, drawing upon his own experiences and values.
They are then joined by Leon Clayborne, Director of Program Strategy and Community Impact at the Just Keep Livin' Foundation. The discussion sheds light on the ethos that drives this remarkable nonprofit, delving into its history and mission. The foundation, inspired by McConaughey's personal journey and motto, strives to provide kids with a solid foundation for a better future. From fitness and wellness to education and empowerment, this organization is all about giving kids the tools they need to thrive.
