  • Episode 12 | The Current View | The Red Sea & Panama Canal CRISIS

    In the inaugural episode of PODcakes new series, "The Current View," we embark on an in-depth exploration of the worldwide repercussions stemming from the Houthis' missile launches targeting merchant vessels in the Red Sea.

    Additionally, we scrutinize the crisis of dwindling water levels in the Panama Canal due to drought, prompting ships to seek alternative routes around South America and consequently affecting the global economy. Are we on the brink of a global economic crisis? What implications does this hold for the availability of goods in our grocery stores, and how will it exacerbate the already surging costs of commodities? Join us as we attempt to gain deeper insights into these unfolding events.

  • My Inner Monologue

    This marks the most authentic, exposed, and genuine version of myself after a long battle with depression that led to an attempted suicide. Constructing this video proved to be the most challenging endeavor I've ever undertaken. Delving into the depths of my emotions, it became a poignant struggle to revisit and relive the most arduous period of my life.

    Encountering my friend Chris, also known as Critter Moto, and witnessing his bravery in openly addressing his battle against depression, while becoming an advocate for men's mental health, inspired me to step forward. I realized it was time to reassure others that discussing struggles, depression, and thoughts of suicide is acceptable. Seeking help is not a sign of weakness but a display of strength. It's time to eradicate the stigma associated with the "Man Card" and acknowledge that therapy is an act of resilience. It is time for me to advocate for Men's Mental Health as well.

    Following the trail that Chris blazed for the world, men's mental health has become a cause close to my heart. Participating in the "Get lost...find yourself" Dual Sport Adventure Motorcycle Camp Out, a fundraising event for HeadsUPguys, a Canadian men's mental health organization, left an indelible mark on me. This extraordinary gathering raised nearly $4000 for HeadsUPGuys.

    In this video, I interweave footage from the event, along with vlogs and raw and vulnerable interview with myself, capturing the essence of this profound experience.

  • Episode 10 - Part 2 | Outside the Helmet with Billy Zureikat

    In the conclusion of Part 1, we delve into the formative years of Billy's life, tracing his journey from growing up in the Chicago area to developing a passion for basketball. His dedication to innovation and strong work ethic propelled him through a college career in journalism. This path led him to the pressbox, covering professional sports teams like the Bears and the Bulls, and hosting a college radio show named Practice Squad.
    Following a successful six-year stint at ESPN, Billy's enduring love for basketball persisted as he moved on to new endeavors. However, a shadow was cast over his life as he began experiencing alarming health issues related to his legs. The narrative left us on a suspenseful note, revealing a shocking twist: Billy had been diagnosed with a rare form of Muscular Dystrophy known as Limb Girdle Muscular Dystrophy.
    In Part 2, we accompany Billy on a distinctive journey where he discovers a creative method to not only raise awareness but also generate a substantial amount of funds for the Muscular Dystrophy Association. His innovative approach transforms him into a local celebrity within the Chicago area. Join me as we bring this tale of hope, inspiration, and unwavering determination to its conclusion - the remarkable story of Billy Zureikat.
