John Burns is the Executive Director of SOS Recovery Community Organization, based in Rochester, NH. John was in executive sales prior to helping start SOS Recovery back in 2016. He started as a volunteer and soon became the Executive Director. John headed the project of opening Fold'd and brought on Mark, previously featured on episode #1134, a few months after opening, back in 2022.

Mark Segal is the GM and Chef at Fold’d Community Diner. Fold’d is, from their website, “a part of SOS Recovery community Organization. Our mission is to bring high quality dining options and workforce opportunities for those in recovery from problematic drug or alcohol use, previously incarcerated, and/or justice involved.” Mark got his start at his father’s 250 seat theater/restaurant in Connecticut. He became the chef and manager there from 1986-1992. He then went on to the C.I.A. in NYC. He worked in high level fine dining restaurants for very notable chefs in NYC and LA and moved up to Portsmouth, NH for his first Executive Chef position at the prestigious One Hundred Club. He then moved on to be a Corporate Chef at the legacy hospitality group Tinios, overseeing the 40 plus year old Galley Hatch and Popovers. Mark then opened his own restaurant, called Gracy in 2020 and closed it in 2023. In 2024, he became the GM and Chef at Fold’d.
