Motor City Motors A family owned motorcycle shop, The Detroit Bros., like many small businesses around the nation, is hurting and a father and two sons come together to keep it afloat. In the current economic downtown the expensive custom motorcycles they build have fallen off everyone’s shopping list. Miraculously, they’ve been approached to do a TV show for the Discovery Channel. This is a big deal – if the show does well it could turn their fortunes and their shop around. The concept for the show is centered around showcasing the Detroit Brothers’ impressive skills as fabricators, engineers and visionary artists. The fact that they operate within a tight knit family structure is a big plus in the network’s eyes – family-based shows are a hot commodity in the world of cable television. In each episode the Detroit Brothers will assemble a team of similarly talented garage types: gearheads, mechanics, welders, customizers etc. to tackle that episode’s project. It could be anything from turning a car into a washing machine, building the ultimate “pirate catcher” for the Navy Seals or transforming an SUV into a pot hole filler. The Detroit brothers, Dave and Jamie, along with their old school hot rodder dad, John, see this not only as a career-making opportunity but also a chance to reach out into the local community and give a shot in the arm to fellow car and bike enthusiasts who might be down on their luck. The build team members will be paid for their week in the garage and receive an impressive package of tools upon finishing. For the Detroit Brothers, to be back in Motor City, the birthplace of the American automobile, shining a spotlight on the men and women who represent today’s car culture AND to be given a chance to turn their business around – it’s a dream come true. All they have to do is keep it from becoming a nightmare.

In the old world (and their real lives) they were doctors, mechanics, lawyers, engineers and short-order cooks. Now they must apply their old skills, and develop new ones, if they are to survive and thrive in the New World.

AMERICA'S PORT Forty-three miles of waterfront, four-thousand two-hundred acres of land. One-hundred and sixty-nine million tons of cargo a year, worth nearly one- hundred and ninety billion dollars. Over sixteen thousand people, from longshoremen to harbor pilots, customs inspectors to truck drivers, the Coast Guard to prison guards. A virtual city within a city, through which 43% of all consumer goods enter the United States. The Port of Los Angeles. America’s Port goes inside the busiest container port in America to get an unprecedented look at how this complex network of men and machines keeps the river of commerce flowing in the U.S., twenty-four hours a day. Twenty miles south of downtown Los Angeles, it functions as an independent, self-sustaining complex on the edge of the sprawling metropolis. Vital to the world’s modern, globalized economy, even a brief pause in the port’s operation would mean empty shelves and a crippling economic impact in retailers across the country. With it’s own police and fire departments, its own rail lines, its own restaurants and bars, even its own prison, it is a city that never sleeps.
