On this episode of the Best Of The Morning X, Barnes, Leslie, and Jimmy speak with inventor Sean Dix. Dix, who had no prior criminal record, is calling in from a federal prison to share the rise and fall of his groundbreaking dental invention. Sean developed a sterilized flossing device that garnered significant interest. Despite initial success and a promising deal with major retailers, a negative feature by CNN derailed everything. This media mishap caused his investors and sales force to abandon ship, leaving Sean’s dream in ruins. Tune in to hear how a media portrayal can make or break a career—and the fallout that landed Sean in prison.
This is from the Best of The Morning X vault.
