  • Maximum Security Mentors with Kim Nugent
    Aug 18 2025

    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.

    ( Https://Www.DrNugentSpeaks.Com ) ( Https://Www.HonestJobs.Com - For those looking to find work after prison, or to find workers as an employer ) ( https://a.co/d/g3syhHR will take you to: Www.Amazon.Com "From Prison to Possibilities: Paving Your Path" ) ( https://youtube.com/@kimnugent7130?si=EIolmPtKFsTwXd1b will take you to: Www.YouTube.Com - "Kim Nugent - YouTube Home" )

    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.

    That's it for this week! Have a great week, a great weekend, and I'll see you all back here next week for another new episode!

  • Imposter Syndrome with Mike Sealy
    Aug 6 2025

    There are only a couple people in the world who give me voice envy, but our expert today is one of them. And even with me saying that, he doesn't believe his own voice is truly radio ready.

    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 Mike Sealy. Mike is a wonderful man with almost three decades of experience in building people up. Despite this, Mike still suffered from Imposter Syndrome when promoted to a new level. It's nothing to be embarrassed about, as every human since the dawn of time has probably felt it at least once, and it will undoubtably outlast us all. So stick around and let Mike use his cheerful voice to charm you out of feeling like a failure.

    Also! The People's Choice Podcast Awards have announce I am in the top 10 slate for Society and Culture. That itself is a huge honor, and I cannot wait to find out how I stack up against the very high profile competition there.

    Let's stop being imposters!

    This has actually been a really big month for imposter syndrome for me. Along with the award nominations, and all the travel, I've also started an Instagram art account that has blown up! It certainly makes me feel like I'm not supposed to be surrounded by the people I am, but I'm thankful for the friends and fans who have kept me grounded and grateful!

    In ranking news... August is here, and the global ranks are now as follows:

    1. The United States, with Texas, Wisconsin, and Washington at an early lead. 2. Australia, with Victoria Just over their Southern friends. 3. Canada, with Ontario just over Nova Scotia. 4. Ireland 5. Scotland of the United Kingdom, leading their British partners.

  • Healthcare Burnout with Irene Cop
    Jul 30 2025

    It's no secret that those we consider necessary for a high quality of life, from paramedics to teachers, either work a very short amount of time before flaming out; or sacrifice everything else in their life so they can keep picking up the pieces for everyone else, while neglecting their own.

    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 Irene Cop. Dr. Cop holds dual provider degrees and has suffered first-hand when it comes to the devastation of flaming out. She's here to share her story, what the helper field is looking like right now, and how we can potentially avoid the titanic vs iceberg moment that is not far out. Also, this is the last week to make your voice heard when you vote for Just Dumb Enough in the People's Choice Podcast Awards.
