This week on Appraise The Phrase:

In this week’s episode of ATP, Mario and 20 are joined by Child Nutrition Specialist Tierre Jones to explore the origins and meanings of everyday expressions, particularly focusing on the phrase ‘Strike While the Iron’s Hot.’ They discuss its historical context, its relevance in modern life, and personal anecdotes related to loyalty and breaking societal rules. The dialogue is enriched with humor and insights into child nutrition and community impact, making it a multifaceted discussion. In this engaging conversation, the hosts explore the nuances of breaking rules, the power of language, and the historical context of idioms and quotes. They share personal anecdotes about challenging societal norms, discuss the importance of children’s nutrition, and debunk common misconceptions about famous quotes. The dialogue is infused with humor and insight, making it both entertaining and thought-provoking.

Tierre Jones is a hospitality and Food Service leader dedicated to shaping the future of child nutrition. With over a decade of experience in school and child nutrition programs, I currently serve as an Area Supervisor overseeing federal child nutrition programs across public schools, where I mentor and empower a team of cafeteria managers and workers.
