What’s up, everybody! Here are JETLAG RADIO 683 & BENKYO RADIO 683. Hope everybody had a great Thanksgiving Weekend. There’s wonderful news out of the Qatar world cup. Everybody is having fun, and everybody is finally respecting Muslims. This is a first in a long time. Who do you think will win the competition? As always, there’s a lot of racism from Le Front National (which renamed themselves RN) in France, but by weird coincidence, suddenly nobody has a problem with Equipe de France being Black Blanc Beurre. Anyway, best of luck to FFF, because I would love a third star on our team jersey. It’s also important for the USA team to perform well which will prepare them for the 2026 World Cup.

Did you notice the surprise? There is a chance that both CRISTIANO RONALDO and MESSI are both going to compete in MLS after the World Cup. Can you believe it? Fans of Football (Soccer) in the USA would go bananas.

Until Next Time!

So while we were all busy celebrating Thanksgiving, this psychopath Vladimir Putin is shutting down access to heating in all of Europe. Europe is essentially going to freeze. Now, before this turns into “The Day After Tomorrow” movie plotline, it’s imperative for NATO to crush Putin and explain to him that winter will go as normal for the people of Europe, and if he thinks for one second that Europe is going to let him act like a Grinch, I’d like to politely remind him that December, NORAD is tracking Santa Claus. And Santa Claus wants you to be a good boy, or you’re not getting any presents. Did I make myself clear?

The House of Representatives and the Senate are once again being held hostage by old geezers who vow to destroy the institution known as the United States of America. If you are tired of Mitch McConnell, if you do NOT want Trump’s cronies to return, vote Democrat, all the way on your ballot.

Here are endorsements from Our Revolution (Bernie Sanders, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, the Squad, others, and the team of volunteers).

Help pass the Afghan Adjustment Act. I’m sorry to say, only Jon Stewart has the power to help us on that one, just like he helped those Veterans. Let’s hope it does not take as long. Every time I rewatch seasons of United States of Al on CBS as a coping mechanism, I want to cry. I really hope Netflix/Hulu/AmazonPrime/anybody brings back this series for Season 3.

There’s definitely a lot of turmoil going on in the world right now, and unfortunately, I’m sorry to say none of the Pundits on MSNBC/CNN/BBC News can compete with Former CIA Director John Brennan. Therefore, stop listening to the idiots who brought us Trump, Trump back on Twitter, and so on and so forth. Instead, listen to this real American Hero. Thanks in advance.

Also, a gentle reminder that if you work for Israeli NSO Pegasus Malware/Spyware and you are currently in America or Europe, and you try to enter the phone of an American or European Intelligence Officer or Diplomat, you don’t get a slap on the wrist, you get jail time, you do hard time. You can also get held in contempt by INTERPOL. And you will either stay in jail, or go get your ass back to Israel. =)

Until Next Time!

During Part Deux of our Honeymoon, we went to France. We had a lot of fun in Paris, and in my hometown of Rennes. We drank champagne on the top of the Eiffel Tower. We ate at a few restaurants. I also was able to finally pay my respects to the #13Novembre victims at the Bataclan and left some flowers. #NeverForget. I took photos at the Stade Rennais and got some merch. I saw some friends from my childhood. I went to la FNAC and bought some books on Economics, some French Hip-Hop/Rap Albums, and Jean-Michel Jarre’s new electronic album. Paris is just magic, and I highly recommend you visit if you have the chance. Rennes has been completely updated and it’s a whole new city. Not to mention, Stade Rennais in the Europa League. I didn’t get a chance to get a new FFF Football or Rugby jersey/merch, but hopefully can get some before Summer.

Until Next Time!
