    137. Recipe for Success... or Disaster?

    In New Mexico, a new rehabilitation program is trying to teach the culinary arts as a marketable skill for inmates once they finally break out of jail. The inmates have access to knives in the kitchen to learn to butcher meat, and that seems like the first obvious problem. But is this a PR move by New Mexico DOC to merely 'look' proactive on solving recidivism rates, or will it work? And what about the private company which took the initiative? Are they just trying to keep their heads above water? Ultimately, can inmates be changed with institutional programming?


    Jake Joke: D, hasn't aged well.
