Living By Design 10 - Never Too Late

The debate over solutions to homelessness heats up; is criminalization an answer?  Grants Pass is a smaller community, nestled in the beautiful backdrop of southern Oregon, that has many residents claiming there has been an explosion of homelessness, leaving their idyllic community unsafe. Grants Pass has gained national attention because of a court case between local homeless individuals and the city. At the heart of the matter is whether it is cruel and unusual punishment for the city to arrest or fine people for sleeping outside in public, even with just a pillow or blanket, when there is no safe shelter available. The case has gone all the way to the Supreme Court, with a decision coming soon, and potentially having national implications on whether cities can criminalize those with no other option but to sleep in public. Dr. Phil sent his team to Grants Pass to speak with residents and people experiencing homelessness to see firsthand what is going on.  Dr. Phil will speak with residents Missy and Brock who claim the rise in homelessness has left many residents scared due to the rampant drug use, crime, and even physical assaults on residents. The debate over whether to criminalize people experiencing homelessness sleeping in public heats up when Dr. Phil invites two experts on opposite sides of the issue; Donald Whitehead (Executive Director of the National Coalition for the Homeless) and Matt Mackowiak (Co-founder of Save Austin Now). Plus, Dr. Phil speaks with Dion, a young man who is currently experiencing homelessness and says criminalizing the things needed to survive on the street is not the answer.

Shockingly low literacy rates, underfunded schools, and overworked teachers are creating a perfect storm, leaving millions of students behind academically. Dr. Phil sits down with educators, parents, and a former senior official in the U.S. Dept. of Education to uncover what's REALLY happening in our public schools. Samantha, a former special ed elementary school teacher, says all she wanted to do since she was a child was work in education. But after experiencing the reality of teaching in the modern day, she says she will never step foot in a classroom again. Also, disgruntled parents, Mark and Val, noticed their two kids being underserved in their public schools. Their son was falling behind in reading and math, and their daughter was unchallenged. But they didn’t know until the pandemic forced them to look at what their kids were doing in school. They decided to pull them out of school, sell their house, and “world school” them. Justin, a former principal, reveals how schools are being pressured to pass students even if they don’t show up to class. Jeanne Allen, the CEO of the Center of Education Reform, shares her 30-year battle with the education system and how she’s trying to change the “factory-like” public school system into a more productive one.

Dr. Phil unravels the Menendez Case with DA Nathan Hochman and Loni Coombs The Menendez case involves brothers Lyle and Erik Menendez, who were convicted in 1996 for the 1989 murders of their parents, Jose and Kitty Menendez, in their Beverly Hills home. The brothers, who were 21 and 18 at the time of the crime, claimed they acted in self-defense after years of sexual abuse by their father, but prosecutors argued the motive was financial. In a recent development, District Attorney Nathan Hochman has taken a firm stance against granting a new trial for the Menendez brothers and has asked the court to deny Erik and Lyle Menendez's habeas corpus petition.  Following his pivotal press conference, Dr. Phil spoke with the DA who tells him about his recent crucial decisions that could profoundly impact the brothers' legal status. Dr. Phil talks to Merit TV’s own Loni Coombs to unpack this case that has been grabbing our attention for decades now.

Dr. Phil speaks to two women who illustrate the importance of the Make America Healthy Again initiative, and the problems with diet and nutrition in our country. Both women say they came from poverty-stricken families and have never had healthy relationships with food- one woman has been diagnosed as obese since she was in elementary school, the other has a severe case of type 2 diabetes that she developed at age 25. Both of their children also suffer from chronic illness- and they live together as roommates. They’ve both been on a weight-loss journey in the past year and want advice and guidance on how to help themselves and their children.

Dr. Phil discusses a chronic illness epidemic sweeping the U.S. with Calley Means, of Truemed; Dr. Cate Shanahan, nutritionist; and Jillian Michaels, fitness expert. The health of American children is under attack- and its biggest threat is a basic need, food. Research is showing that ultra-processed foods are linked to the chronic illness epidemic that is sweeping our nation. More than 40% of school-aged children and adolescents have at least one chronic health condition, such as asthma, obesity, and behavior/learning problems. Less than 1% of children eat ideal meals. Ultra-processed foods currently make up nearly 60% of what a typical adult eats- and nearly 70% of what children eat. Dr. Phil speaks to Calley Means, co-founder of Truemed; Dr. Cate Shanahan, board-certified MD and nutritionist; and Jillian Michaels, a fitness expert and trainer to weigh-in on this uniquely American crisis.
