I'm fairly certain that our mental image of a maximum security prison doesn't involve mentor programs, book club, and cognitive therapy; And yet, that is exactly what my expert today has introduced as a new style of Prison Reform.
Welcome to the Just Dumb Enough Podcast. A show that acknowledges no one is always an expert, by dispelling misconceptions with real experts.
My guest today is Dr Kim Nugent. Kim has worked to propagate mentor programs in all avenues of life, or so she thought until she was approached to write a peer mentor guide for convicted criminals with hefty felony sentences. Join us as she explains the story that brought her program to life, the ways it can truly save the lives of people who need a second chance, and how this might actually benefit your small or large business.

Let's advocate for prison reform!
If anyone out there knows a warden, or veteran corrections officer, or experienced department of justice worker: I would love to get them on the show for a deeper dive on prisons and what isn't common knowledge. The same goes for anyone who served a long stent in prison, as I think both sides of the situation have valuable experience.
In ranking news... August is halfway over, and the global ranks are now as follows:
1. The United States, with California, Michigan, and Washington now out front. 2. Australia, with Victoria taking on Western Australia. 3. England of the United Kingdom, now leading their Scottish partners. 4. Canada, with Ontario taking a huge lead. 5. Ireland, battling it out with the Netherlands.
