In this episode, hosts Dillon and Michael tackle one of the most pressing and debated questions today: What is the endgame for the Israel-Gaza war?

As diplomatic pressure mounts and the humanitarian crisis intensifies, Dillon and Michael present their contrasting perspectives on the path forward for Israel.

Dillon argues that the war has reached a turning point that risks a lasting moral stain on the Jewish State. He advocates for a decisive end to military operations, urging Israel to declare victory, prioritize a hostage deal, and withdraw completely from the Gaza Strip to preserve its remaining moral standing.

Michael challenges the moral criticism against the IDF but agrees that the status quo is unsustainable. His proposed solution focuses on practical, strategic change: Partnering with figures like Yasser Abu Shabab to facilitate regime change in Gaza, which he believes could secure the release of hostages and ensure long-term security for Southern Israel.

What's your perspective on the Israel-Gaza endgame?

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?

Jolted awake at 3 AM by a national emergency warning detailing Israel’s pre-emptive attack on Iran, Michael and Dillon kick things off by diving straight into the insane first day of the Israel-Iran War.

Recording remotely near their respective bomb shelters, Michael and Dillon try to make sense of the chaos and the massive unknowns facing their city and country.

Rather than our usual intro, this episode lands you right in the middle of the action!

Michael and Dillon are discussing the current event of the day (is Shas actually leaving the coalition or just playing hardball?) and end up discussing Israel's disastrous results on the Public Relations battlefront. Finally, we conclude with a fascinating and heated discussion about Gaza: is it a territory or should we consider it a country, and what implications does that have for the war?

We hope you enjoy listening as much as we enjoyed recording. And to our slowly growing list of fans out there, all we can say is we're honored to have your attention, and thank you for listening!

Calling IDF tactics & overall Gaza strategy into question, Michael & Dillion answer the question: Is the IDF Just Winging It?

This episode was recorded on February 20th - the day that four hostage bodies arrived in Israel. Michael and Dillon recorded this episode on Dillon's balcony overlooking hostage square (sorry about the slight wind in the background).

It was an emotional day and an emotional night as Michael and Dillon get honest with one another about this war and ask the fundamental question: is there any way back from the brink?
