Zod & Shapiro are Neil Waytowich and Ari Shapiro.
After many failed attempts earlier in the year, we’ve finally combined forces to address the chronic and existential imbalance of societal lies, government misinformation and political hypocrisy that’s permeated our world endlessly.
We welcome our shared glorious followers, recent admirers, and fellow soothsayers interested in our philosophical musings on life, the universe and everything.
