Meet Director Thennie Freeman, the powerhouse behind the DC Department of Parks and Recreation, who most recently launched the innovative Youth Development Professional Certification Program in partnership with the GW Center for Excellence in Public Leadership. But first, how did she get to this point—where she's empowering other leaders to inspire youth in the workforce today?Director Freeman's passion for community work started at Job Corps, and she has since dedicated herself to supporting children, young adults, and those who lead them today—many of whom have faced adversity. Having learned on the fly early in her career, she understands the challenges of navigating the workforce and has made it her mission to equip leaders with the tools they need to guide young people toward success. You'll learn a lot from her three tools. Much of her life's work focuses on shifting power back into the hands of youth, helping them build confidence and take control of their futures—ultimately leading to the launch of this program, which aims to equip future leaders with the skills needed to effectively mentor and support youth across various educational and community settings.In this episode, Director Freeman also shares insights about her latest project—the newly launched Joy Evans Therapeutic Recreation Center. She tells the story of the facility's namesake, Joy Evans, a young woman born with developmental disabilities who spent much of her short life in an institutional facility. Inspired by her family's experience, advocates pushed for keeping families together while also supporting children of different abilities. That same vision led to the creation of this state-of-the-art center, which features outpatient therapeutic services, a temperature-controlled therapeutic pool, and comprehensive family support—all while fostering inclusivity. And it's open to the public.A key aspect of the facility is its unique biophilic design, which embraces the healing power of nature. Every detail has been thoughtfully crafted to accommodate individuals of all abilities, ensuring both accessibility and comfort for them and their families.For someone who wears many hats in the community, you might be surprised by where Director Freeman spends much of her time thinking and reflecting. Hint: It may inspire you to jump in! She also teases some exciting upcoming projects focused on bringing learning beyond the classroom and into community spaces.We hope you leave this episode feeling as inspired as we did after hearing Director Freeman's story and her dedication to creating an inclusive space for all.Love the show?

In 2004, we opened up a phone line on NPR asking people to tell us about their Hidden Kitchens— secret, underground, below the radar cooking, and how people come together through food. One caller told us about immigrants and homeless people, who didn't have official kitchens, using the George Foreman Grill to make meals and a home. Did George Foreman know about this? We called him up to find out.George Foreman the legendary two-time World Heavy Weight Champion and Olympic gold medalist talked with us about growing up hungry and violent, about his time in the Job Corps, about his career and comeback, about becoming a preacher, and his work with kids. “Feed them,” he says. “Hunger makes you angry.”In honor of George Foreman who left this earth March 21, 2025, The Kitchen Sisters Present an Unexpected Kitchen: The George Foreman Grill and Beyond."No one should be given up on. You never lose your citizenship as a human being just because you've been in trouble." - George ForemanThe Kitchen Sisters Present is produced by The Kitchen Sisters (Davia Nelson & Nikki Silva) with Nathan Dalton and Brandi Howell.

George Foreman gave us a masterclass in resilience, on never giving up. His pivots and comebacks from defeat were legendary. He was a force of nature and one of the greatest boxers, salesmen and personalities the world has ever known. His inspirational story matters to us because one of the most critical mental disciplines for sales professionals is resilience.  Foreman's "In the Mud" Moment The George Foreman most of us remember, the man with the big charismatic smile selling grills on TV, was a far cry from the young man growing up in poverty in Houston's Fifth Ward, where lunch was often a mayonnaise sandwich.  As a teenager, George was an angry, mean bully who stole from kids at school and was shoplifting and mugging his way through his neighborhood. He was living on the edge, one arrest away from landing in a jail cell and potentially a life behind bars. One night, he was lying flat on his face in stinking mud, hiding from the police, when it hit him like a left hook that he was going nowhere like this. It was a moment of truth that changed the trajectory of his life. Lying there covered in filth, he made a promise to himself to change his path. He realized that if he wanted to avoid going nowhere, he had to make a massive mindset shift.  He enrolled in the Job Corps—a federal program that helps disadvantaged youth pick up real life skills—and soon after discovered boxing. And from that moment on, he replaced petty crime with gloves, replaced street fights with disciplined training, replaced despair with a sense of purpose.  This type of mindset shift is exactly what resilience is about. Sometimes you've got to face the fact that your old excuses, old habits, or old environment aren't working for you anymore. And when you decide to do something different—really decide—you set the stage for everything else that follows. That stinking mud moment is where you get real about your situation. It's where you decide that you've had enough and realize that the change you are looking for can only be found inside yourself because that's where resilience comes from.  Developing Resilience in the Face of Devastating Defeat Once George got serious about boxing, he rocketed to stardom. He won gold in the 1968 Olympics, then tore through the heavyweight division.  In one of his most famous fights, he defeated Joe Frazier in just two rounds, creating the iconic moment when Howard Cosell screams, “Down goes Frazier, down goes Frazier, down goes Frazier!” Foreman emerged from that fight as a heavyweight wrecking ball, the unstoppable champion of the world. Then, he ran into a wall called Muhammad Ali. Millions of people tuned in to watch Foreman and Ali battle it out in what was hyped as the “Rumble in the Jungle.”  Going into the fight, Foreman was the overwhelming favorite. But it was his overconfidence that lulled him into Ali's famous rope-a-dope strategy. This led to a crushing and embarrassing defeat. Ali knocked Foreman out in the eighth round, shocking the world and pulling off the upset of the century. Foreman was humiliated on the global stage. In that moment, he went from being the hardest hitting, baddest man on the planet to an also-ran.  Sales and life can be the same way. You might have soared for months, hitting every goal. Then the bottom falls out. The real test isn't whether you can ride success, but whether you can respond to defeat with resilience. The real question is, will you pick yourself up and make a comeback or fold up like a cheap lawn chair and quit. Will your failure become a tattoo or temporary bruise?  Retreat and Reinvention — The Next Pivot After that loss to Ali, Foreman was devastated. But he continued fighting until at the age of 28, he had a near death experience in Puerto Rico following a loss to Jimmy Young. It was one more lapse into overconfidence in which Foreman failed to prepare for the fight and was taken down by yet another underdog.

Wayne, Sherry, and Mitch Peeler embarked on a unique ministry journey at a Job Corps campus. Job Corps, a program by the Department of Labor, helps young people gain education and vocational training. The Peeler family served students from diverse backgrounds, offering spiritual support and guidance. Their ministry began with small steps but grew through perseverance and faith, impacting not only the students but also the staff and guards. Stories of transformation, like that of a student named Joe, highlight the profound impact of their ministry. The Peeler family's journey challenges us to embrace ministry opportunities, build genuine relationships, and involve our families in serving others.

A las 8:00 de la mañana del 13 de enero de 1995, un empleado del campus de Job Corps, ubicado en Knoxville, Tennessee, se encontraba en el bosque aledaño cuando vio algo que lo dejó sin palabras.En aquella zona alejada, rodeada de árboles, junto a un molino abandonado, yacía lo que él creyó que eran restos de un animal. Parecía que el animal había recibido tantas agresiones que decidió alertar a las autoridades.Cuando estas se apersonaron en el lugar del hallazgo, notaron que en realidad se trataba de un ser humano.

Send Kris and Rob a Text Message!The Deadly Obsession of Christa Pike: The Devil in the DetailsBorn on March 10, 1976, Christa Pike grew up with a difficult family life. Her troubled upbringing involved abuse, neglect, and struggles with mental health—factors that, while tragic, would never justify the choices she made as a young woman. By her late teens, Christa found herself at Job Corps, a program designed to help troubled young adults get back on track by providing them with education and training. Here, she met and quickly fell for 17-year-old Tadaryl Shipp, a charismatic young man who would become more than just a boyfriend. Together, they would ignite a deadly obsession.The Backstory: Love, Obsession, and Dark BeliefsChrista Pike and Tadaryl Shipp's relationship was intense and volatile. They were both drawn to the occult, dabbling in devil worship and dark rituals, something that set them apart and fed their shared intensity. Pike's obsession with Shipp was fierce, almost possessive, and she was jealous of anyone she thought might interfere. | One person, in particular, fueled Christa's jealousy: Colleen Slemmer. Colleen, a fellow Job Corps student, had reportedly irritated Christa with minor slights. Pike became convinced that Colleen was trying to seduce Tadaryl, a suspicion that spiraled quickly in her mind. The Crime: A Night of HorrorOn January 12, 1995, Christa Pike, Tadaryl Shipp, and a mutual friend named Shadolla Peterson lured Colleen Slemmer into a secluded, wooded area on the University of Tennessee's agricultural campus in Knoxville. Colleen thought they were going for a walk, perhaps to resolve whatever tension had built up between them. But what awaited her was no peace talk—it was a nightmare. | For the next thirty minutes, Colleen endured torture at the hands of Christa and Tadaryl. Christa Pike smashed Colleen's skull with a large chunk of asphalt, ultimately killing her. But Pike wasn't finished. As a final, chilling souvenir, she kept a piece of Colleen's skull, carrying it with her as if it were a trophy of her conquest.The Aftermath: An Unraveled CrimeChrista Pike's arrogance proved to be her undoing. Bragging about the murder to friends, she showed off the fragment of Colleen's skull as though it were a badge of honor. News of her boasting quickly spread through the Job Corps community and reached the ears of authorities. Within 36 hours, Christa Pike and Tadaryl Shipp were arrested. | During questioning, Pike showed no remorse, relaying the horrific details of the murder with chilling indifference. The physical evidence against her was overwhelming, including Colleen's blood on her clothes and the skull fragment she had so brazenly kept as a memento. | In 1996, Christa Pike was found guilty of first-degree murder. The court, clearly appalled by the brutality of the crime, sentenced her to death. She was just 20 years old, making her the youngest woman on death row in the United States at the time.sources used for this podcastSupport the showJOIN THE HITCHED 2 HOMICIDE IN-LAWS AND OUTLAWSSTART KRIS CALVERT'S BOOKS TODAY FOR FREEH2H WEBSITEH2H on TWITTERH2H on INSTA

This Day in Legal History: Economic Opportunity ActThis day in legal history, on August 20, 1964, President Lyndon B. Johnson signed the Economic Opportunity Act into law, a cornerstone of his ambitious "War on Poverty." The Act allocated $1 billion to fund social programs aimed at alleviating poverty across the United States. It created initiatives like Job Corps, which provided education and vocational training to young people, and Head Start, a program focused on early childhood education. The legislation also established community action programs designed to empower local communities to fight poverty by giving them control over how federal funds were spent. The Economic Opportunity Act was a key element of Johnson's broader "Great Society" vision, which sought to eliminate poverty and racial injustice while improving education, healthcare, and housing. Though the Act faced criticism for its effectiveness and implementation, it marked a significant federal commitment to social welfare. It laid the groundwork for subsequent anti-poverty programs and remains a pivotal moment in the history of U.S. social policy.For context and as stated, the act set aside $1 billion for social programs. The richest American of the 1960s was J. Paul Getty, with a net worth of right around $1.2 billion. Therefore, the program set aside about 83% of the net worth of the wealthiest American of the day. If a similar program was enacted today, Elon Musk is the wealthiest American with a net worth of about $195 billion–so a comparable program would need to set aside approximately $162 billion for social welfare programs. Today, Job Corps has a yearly budget of just $1.8 billion and Head Start just $12.5 billion for a combined total of about $15 billion – we have quite a ways to go. A group advocating for changes to Ohio's redistricting process has filed a lawsuit against the Ohio Ballot Board, accusing it of misleading voters with biased language regarding a proposed constitutional amendment. The group, Citizens Not Politicians, argues that the board's nearly 900-word description of the measure, which will appear on the November ballot, is designed to prejudice voters against the amendment. The lawsuit asks the Ohio Supreme Court to require the board to use new, neutral language that complies with state law. The board's description suggests that voting "yes" would create a taxpayer-funded commission required to gerrymander districts, which the plaintiffs claim is misleading. The case is expected to be expedited due to the upcoming election.Ohio Redistricting Activists Sue Over GOP-Passed Ballot ProposalWalt Disney Co. has agreed to have a Florida wrongful death lawsuit resolved in court, reversing its earlier stance that the case should go to arbitration. The lawsuit was filed by Jeffrey Piccolo, whose wife, Kanokporn Tangsuan, died from an allergic reaction after dining at Raglan Road Irish Pub and Restaurant in Disney Springs, Orlando. The couple allegedly chose the restaurant due to Disney and Raglan's assurances about accommodating food allergies. Initially, Disney argued that it wasn't liable, claiming it had no control over the restaurant's operations. Later, Disney suggested the case should go to arbitration based on Piccolo's Disney+ subscription, the arbitration clause in the terms of service for that streaming service, and his use of the company's website. However, Disney has now decided to waive arbitration to expedite the case in court, expressing a desire to address the family's loss with sensitivity.Disney agrees to have Florida wrongful death lawsuit decided in court | ReutersU.S. expatriates are frustrated with the IRS's proposed rules on foreign-trust reporting, particularly regarding the classification and reporting of foreign retirement plans. Many foreign retirement accounts are considered foreign trusts, requiring Americans abroad to report them to the IRS, which can be complex and unclear. Despite the IRS's efforts to revise these rules, expatriates and tax professionals feel that the new proposals don't provide enough clarity on who needs to report and which retirement plans are affected, leaving many in financial uncertainty. Over 1,500 comments were submitted to the IRS, with expatriates expressing anxiety and confusion about their obligations. Practitioners highlight that the ambiguity in these rules can lead to severe penalties for non-compliance, making it difficult for taxpayers to understand their responsibilities. The IRS's public hearing on the matter is expected to focus heavily on the need for clearer guidance, particularly on foreign retirement plans, with calls for broader exemptions and more comprehensive relief.Americans Abroad Want Relief From IRS on Foreign-Trust ReportingThe EPA argues that the challengers to the Biden administration's power plant carbon limits are unlikely to succeed on the merits of their case. The EPA asserts that its carbon capture technology standard and related limits are based on well-established scientific and technical judgments, which fall within the agency's statutory authority under the Clean Air Act. The EPA's power plant carbon limits set new standards for reducing greenhouse gas emissions from coal and gas power plants, focusing on carbon capture and storage technology. The rule requires that existing long-term coal plants implement technology to capture 90% of their carbon dioxide emissions by 2032. It also mandates that medium-term coal plants co-fire with natural gas at 40% of their annual heat input by 2030. For new gas plants operating at a significant capacity, the same 90% carbon capture standard applies. The EPA argues that these standards are based on proven technologies that can feasibly reduce emissions, aligning with the agency's traditional regulatory approach of improving the environmental performance of individual power plants.The EPA contends that the rule adheres to the traditional regulatory approach by focusing on technologies that reduce emissions at individual sources, rather than enforcing a generation shift across the energy grid, as the Supreme Court found problematic in the earlier West Virginia v. EPA case. The EPA also argues that carbon capture technology is not only adequately demonstrated but also achievable within the set timelines, based on extensive evidence from current and past projects. Additionally, the EPA claims that the potential impact on coal plants, including possible closures, is incidental and does not invalidate the rule. They stress that the rule's compliance deadlines are reasonable and that states have flexibility in their implementation plans. The EPA concludes that a stay would cause irreparable harm by allowing continued carbon emissions and that the court should deny the stay applications.EPA Urges Supreme Court to Block Bid to Freeze Power Plant Rule This is a public episode.

Happy Monday! Sam and Emma speak with Anne Kim, contributing editor at Washington Monthly magazine, to discuss her recent book Poverty For Profit: How Corporations Get Rich off America's Poor. First, Sam and Emma run through updates on Trump-Harris polling, the fight over Harris' platform, continuing Israeli escalation in the Middle East, Russia's offensive, Iowa's abortion ban, Venezuela's election, environmental crisis, and the passing of Lewis Lapham, before parsing a little deeper through the GOP's panic over Trump's VP Flub with JD Vance. Anne Kim then joins, diving right into the role of one Emanuel Savas in publishing and popularizing the drive to privatize government services in their totality, pushing the budding neoliberal belief in the efficiency of the market, and successfully pushing his ideology all the way to the White House with the election of Ronald Reagan, before stepping back to look at what these social services entail – everything from prison to air traffic to healthcare – and how much of the US economy they make up. Expanding on this, Kim explores how the privatization of these social services aimed at impoverished communities results in astounding failures on the supply side, using examples from earned income tax credits, job training and the Job Corps, Medicaid/Medicare and Dialysis, and Section 8 Housing to demonstrate how the privatization of these services allows for easy capture of the market by for-profit providers, and results in exploitative institutions that push bad products onto people with little to no other choice. After tackling some of the more devastating material impacts of these failures of neoliberalism, Kim, Sam, and Emma wrap up by tackling the major ideological shift that is needed in US politics to rethink how and why we provide social services. And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma unpack Israel's continuing war crimes in Gaza, shifting rhetoric on Israel in the West, and Jimmy Dore's insane take on why Trump is the true pro-Palestine candidate. They also dive deep into Biden's new plan to reform the Supreme Court, and the GOP's continuing struggle not to be obvious bigots about Kamala Harris.
