Unrelated...with Ato and Chris
by Chris Cecot and Ato Essandoh
Two life-long friends. One black, one white. We talk about random stuff, goings-on in the world, and try to understand why we don't understand. Mainly we discuss how screwed up things are, but with a healthy dose of comedy, pop culture, and off-topic ramblings. (that's the unrelated part. also, we're not related so it's a play on words. we're so clever.)
