    It’s last-minute, I know!

    Tochi is away this week. So instead of recording an episode of The Inner Cities Podcast, Zell figured he'd celebrate living another year with some gaming! Go to Twitch.tv/azellwill and watch him be mediocre at his life-long hobby and ask him whatever. This week, you’re Tochi.

    Possible games on the B-Day menu:

    • Hades 2
    • Street Fighter 6
    • Guacamelee
    • The Witcher 3.

    Saturday, 10/11 (TOMORROW!) at 12 PM PST. Come wish me an HBD!

    UN-welcome
    Sep 28 2025

    Tochi and Zell question the price of their un-raptured souls. They talk about the UN walking out on Netanyahu, the indictment of James Comey, troops being sent to Portland, and how much stand-ups are making at the Riyadh Comedy Festival.

    • UN Ambassadors walk out on Netanyahu.
