  • S2 Ep 10: A Special 4th of July Episode!
    Jul 4 2025

    In celebration of America's 249th birthday, Michael and Dillon keep things all-American by discussing the American and Israeli plans of ending the war in Gaza... and the political implications of that in Israel.


    Michael and Dillon then take a personal approach by asking each other: "Don't you think you're too harsh on Israel?!" and "Don't you think you give Israel too much of a pass??" It's an episode exploring the personal, philosophical, and geopolitical and everything in between!

    Like much of the world, Michael and Dillon sit breathless, awaiting Iran’s response to the U.S. B-2 bombers that dropped 14 GBU-57 "Massive Ordnance Penetrator" bombs on three key Iranian facilities.

    In this episode, they dive deeper into the tension between war and diplomacy. What drives nations to choose one over the other, and what shapes public opinion in moments of global crisis? They explore how this unfolding conflict could reshape Israel, destabilize the region, and leave lasting ripples across the world.


    Can this path be turned back? And if not, what comes next?
