Relive the confusion and gravity of the moment as we recount our initial reactions and the chaos that ensued.

We honor the heroism of Fire Chief Cory Capitory, who made the ultimate sacrifice to protect his family amidst a tragic shooting, highlighting broader societal and political tensions. Our discussion also zeros in on political hypocrisy and media manipulation, contrasting Trump and Biden's rhetoric and actions.

Detroit Life, Pizza Passions, and Football Fervor
This American Ride
06/07/24 • 73 min
Have you ever pondered the true essence of Detroit living? Join us on "This American Ride" as our lifelong friend Justin, affectionately known as JL, makes his podcast debut and sets the record straight. From middle school memories to his exciting career move from New Jersey to Detroit, Justin's journey is nothing short of captivating. We laugh over our unforgettable night at the Peacock Bar in the Waldorf Astoria, reflect on our mixed feelings about New York City, and dive into Justin's quest for the perfect slice of pizza in a city not typically famed for its mom-and-pop pizzerias.
Ever wondered what makes New Jersey's pizza landscape so unique? Prepare for a mouth-watering discussion that traverses from New York-style pizza in the north to the thin, crispy Trenton-style in the central region. We throw in our experiences at places like Pepe's Pizza and DeLorenzo's, and even a shoutout to a Detroit pizza joint that earned high praise from none other than Dave Portnoy. A lighthearted note on a uniquely shaped bourbon bottle adds a fun twist to our culinary journey.
Shifting gears, we dive into the sprawling urban landscape of Detroit, contrasting it with the dense confines of Manhattan. From the trials of being a Detroit Lions fan to the fierce college football rivalries in Michigan, our sports discussions are as passionate as they are insightful. We touch on the polarizing figure of Jim Harbaugh, the evolving dynamics in college football due to NIL deals, and even the complexities of political affiliations with a sprinkle of bourbon and craft beer appreciation. Join us for a blend of humor, nostalgia, and thought-provoking discussions that offer a little something for everyone.

The Bucket List
This American Ride
10/06/23 • 82 min
A bucket list, as the name suggests, is a list of things one wishes to accomplish or experience before they "kick the bucket." It is a compilation of personal aspirations, dreams, and desires, serving as a reminder of what truly matters in life. While the concept of creating a bucket list might seem cliché, it is a powerful tool for self-reflection and motivation. In this essay, George and Burt will discuss the importance of having a bucket list and share their own in this episode.
First and foremost, a bucket list provides direction and purpose in life. Often, we get caught up in the routines and responsibilities of everyday life, losing sight of what truly makes us happy. A bucket list serves as a reminder to break free from this monotony and pursue our passions. It helps us prioritize our desires and ambitions, ensuring that we allocate time and effort to the things that truly bring us joy.
Secondly, a bucket list encourages personal growth and self-development. By setting goals or dreams, we push ourselves outside our comfort zones and challenge our limits. Whether it is learning a new language, traveling to a distant land, or mastering a musical instrument, these aspirations push us to acquire new skills, gain knowledge, and develop as individuals. A bucket list is a reflection of our desire to grow and evolve into better versions of ourselves.
Furthermore, a bucket list encourages us to seize the present moment. Life is fleeting, and it is crucial to make every moment count. A bucket list serves as a constant reminder not to postpone our dreams and ambitions for an uncertain future. By being proactive and proactive, we learn to appreciate the value of time and live life to the fullest. It pushes us to take risks, make bold choices, and seize opportunities in the moment.

The Israeli - Hamas War
This American Ride
10/20/23 • 118 min
On this episode of This American Ride George and Burt take on the topic of the latest Israeli/Hamas conflict.
The Israeli-Hamas war has been an ongoing conflict that has plagued the Middle East for decades. Stemming from historical, political, and religious tensions, the conflict between two groups has resulted in extensive violence, casualties, and a seemingly endless cycle of retaliation.
The roots of the Israeli-Hamas conflict trace back to the establishment of the State of Israel in 1948, resulting in displacement and suffering for the Palestinian people. The presence of Israeli settlers led to rising tensions, which were further exacerbated by the 1967 Six-Day War. Following this war, Israel occupied territories including the West Bank and Gaza Strip, which remain at the core of the conflict.
The political complexity surrounding the Israeli-Hamas conflict is both intricate and multifaceted. The Palestinian Authority governs the West Bank, while Hamas controls the Gaza Strip. Israel, as a sovereign nation, faces the challenge of ensuring the safety of its citizens while navigating diplomatic relations with the Palestinian Authority and dealing with the militant group Hamas. This dynamic creates a complex web of negotiations and power struggles that further fuel the conflict.
Religious and ideological differences also contribute to the ongoing Israeli-Hamas war. Israel, predominantly Jewish, maintains its right to exist as a Jewish state. Conversely, Hamas, an Islamist political and military organization, refuses to recognize Israel's right to exist and seeks to establish a Palestinian state instead. These differing religious perspectives add a layer of complexity to the conflict, further deepening the divide between the two sides.
The Israeli-Hamas conflict is characterized by a cycle of violence, where each side feels compelled to respond to the other's aggression. Rockets launched from Gaza into Israel have led to Israeli airstrikes targeting Hamas strongholds, which, in turn, result in civilian casualties and infrastructure destruction. These retaliatory measures by both parties raise humanitarian concerns and create a vicious cycle that perpetuates the conflict.
The Israeli-Hamas conflict has had a devastating impact on both Israeli and Palestinian civilians. Innocent lives have been lost and families torn apart on both sides. The Gaza Strip, already suffering from economic hardship and a lack of resources, has been severely affected by the frequent military operations. The humanitarian crisis resulting from the ongoing conflict calls for immediate international attention and concerted efforts to protect civilian lives.
Addressing the Israeli-Hamas conflict requires international mediation and diplomatic intervention. The United Nations, alongside regional organizations and key global players, must strive to facilitate a peaceful resolution through negotiations and dialogue. A lasting peace agreement should consider the establishment of a viable Palestinian state alongside a secure Israel, ensuring the recognition of both parties' rights and security concerns.
The Israeli-Hamas conflict remains a complex and multifaceted issue. Overcoming its challenges calls for a comprehensive approach that takes into account historical, political, religious, and humanitarian dimensions. Engaging all the parties involved and addressing the root causes of the conflict is essential in
