I got to attend the Acura Grand Prix in Los Angeles Long Beach, and it was a lot of fun. There were a lot of great sports cars, including NSXs. It was a fun experience and I’m glad I got to spend some time with my brothers, especially playing a little bit of FIFA. They’re always stronger than me, so it was fun to play. We watch a lot of Football and watched an unbelievable Formula 1 race where Max came back from last position to finish the race in second place. It was amazing. I mean now we definitely know that Red Bull gives you wings.

Amazing! I can’t believe I’ve reached episode 360! I am really thankful for my girlfriend, my therapist, and my family & friends who helped me deal with Mental Health. I am currently reading the BLEACH manga. Remember, BLEACH is an Anime/Manga sensation, you should NOT drink Bleach, that’s ridiculous, and you’d be poisoned, you’re not as stupid as Trump, are you?

Don’t forget to wear a mask, get vaccinated, and practice social-distance!

Don’t underestimate Death Stranding. There’s a reason why there’s a song that says “Please Don’t Stop Chapter 1.” I’m currently on Chapter 4 and it’s getting bonkers. This is the craziest game I have played in a long time.

I hope Cyberpunk 2077 has more patches coming, because the recent patches really ruined the experience.

Ronaldo is back at Manchester United. Please take this seriously. We must win the Champions League, and the League, and maybe even the FA Cup. Can we do it? A 2021/2022 Treble? LET’S GO!!!

Ed Gillett investigates, finding that UK drug-takers’ safety is being left to a non-governmental patchwork of underfunded charities and volunteers, while heavy-handed policing leaves many people fearing getting help, when more progressive approaches — like those already implemented in The Netherlands or being advocated for in the UK — could ultimately save lives [DJ Mag]

What’s up, everybody! Here are JETLAG RADIO 356 & BENKYO RADIO 356.

This week was a very tough week on all of us for many reasons. First of all, it’s the 20th anniversary of 9/11/2001, dark day in American history. Everybody remembers it in its own way. Just please don’t forget part of the post-9/11 history, the part where lots of people stigmatized Muslims, or people who looked like Muslims. It was a very hard time for millions of Americans. I remember those days. The days when it was “unpatriotic” to not wear a flag pin. When being against the Iraq war was “unamerican.” Plus, I came from France, there was the huge “Freedom Fries” joke. Well guess what, look in retrospect. France was right about not going to Iraq, there were no WMDs. President Bush should have focused on catching UBL asap, and not let him casually walk to Pakistan (which probably had Pakistan’s ISI’s help). The best way we move forward, is to unleash all the bad laundry. As a result, I am glad that President Biden is letting the victims of 9/11, including the families of the 343 Firefighters mourn with getting a sense of justice. The fact that Michael Moore was right: the Saudi Government was indeed involved in funding the 9/11 attack. It was all about Big Oil Cartel. They billed trillions of dollars to the American Taxpayers. It’s a dark chapter in our country’s history, but I am glad that the FBI finally declassified it.

I want to thank the entire world community for helping everybody with Mental Health this week. Whether it was to have sermons, services, or sporting events with the American flag, there were plenty of activities to help everybody who deals with PTSD. I watched the WeatherTech Laguna Seca race on YouTube TV, and it was awesome. I hope to return on location next year.

This weekend is also Paul Walker’s birthday. A hero of mine, and a hero to many other people around the globe. I don’t know about you, but sometimes when I go for a drive, I feel like his presence is watching over us from the sky, whether you want to call it Heaven, or whatever intergalactic parallel dimension. As someone who has dealt with grief, going on a drive, drinking a coffee, listening to my music, it helps me tremendously. It’s the best therapy for me. As much as I love my therapist, a $5 coffee and a 1hr drive is a lot cheaper, and it really calms the mind afterward.

A big shoutout and a big thank you to the Intelligence Community who worked extremely hard from 9/09/21 to 9/12/21 to prevent any attacks on American Soil, whether from Radical Fundamentalists (less likely) and White Nationalists (more likely nowadays).

This weekend also has Command Massoud on our minds. Please have a Stealth B-2 Bomber flyover Kabul, and the Taliban will think twice before returning Afghanistan to a dark decade all over again. Thanks in advance.

Drinking one shot of tequila late tonight to think about our fallen servicemen and servicewomen.

People used to make fun of “self-care” days on Sundays. Now you see its importance. Take care of yourself and one another.

Until Next Time!
