Shontay Lundy transitioned from her career in corporate America to being an entrepreneur in 2016 when she founded Black Girl Sunscreen (BGS). BGS was created to cater exclusively to Black women
In this episode, Shontay gives us some insight into how she grew up and the experiences that shaped her ideas of beauty, lets us in on the importance of BGS' name being authentic to who she is, and the guilt some non-Black women express when using BGS. We also get into how Shontay has been staying on top of her wellness, the Black Panther party, the aesthetic procedures we're thinking about trying and so much more!

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
