What’s up, everybody! Here are JETLAG RADIO 1147 & BENKYO RADIO 1147. Here’s a new update from myself on my YouTube channel.

Thank You So Much for using the hashtag: #NoMoreTrump. It’s trending worldwide. Thank You. We will get out of the #TrumpMatrix, the #TrumpTVshow. I’ve revealed dangerous information about Trump (45)…like an ethernet cable RJ45. Trump is a robot, Trump is Agent Smith, and Jack Smith is going to have to stop Trump once and for all. Trump cannot make bail. Trump will be in criminal court on April 15th. It’s happening. Let’s drink some Whiskey, Robert Mueller III & Jack Smith. We have to win. I’m tired of this atrocity. I need a break. Buying more sunflower seeds when I run out. I have plenty, because obviously, quite frankly, there’s a lot of work that needs to be done.

Until Next Time!

Tens of thousands of Israelis took part in protests in Jerusalem, calling for the resignation of Binyamin Netanyahu, the prime minister. The protesters demanded an early election and a deal to return hostages held by Hamas. Earlier Israeli officials travelled to Egypt for another round of talks over a ceasefire deal in Gaza.

Someone may have to pay me millions of dollars for pain and suffering, all because they refused to pay me a simple $180,000/year Project Manager remote/hybrid salary along with a $180K vehicle, a RS6 Avant or RS7.

BLOGPOST UPDATE IN PROGRESS

What’s up, everybody! Here are JETLAG RADIO 1146 & BENKYO RADIO 1146. Here is a new episode of Coffee With Zack YouTube, in which I discuss how odd it is that I have worked over 25 years, and never been able to afford a flight to Manchester, UK, to witness Cristiano Ronaldo in a red shirt at Old Trafford, playing for Manchester United in front of Alex Ferguson. This is very odd. Also, I blame my previous employers whom I haven’t received a salary in 5 years, preventing me from purchasing my very first new vehicle, preferably an Audi RS6 Avant, RS7, or more budget-wise, an Audi A7/S7, or Audi A8/S8 (used), or a BMW M3/M4 (used). More likely, it will be a new VW, assuming the 2024 European models with the large LCD infotainment screen makes it way to North America. I need a new car asap, it is incredibly important for the work that I do. For JETLAG RADIO, for its OPERATING SYSTEM, so on and so forth. Thank you for your help. I am now on VENMO.

Please continue using the hashtag: #NoMoreTrump. It’s trending nationwide. Thank You.

Until Next Time!

I am extremely excited about the announcement from Hideo Kojima & Kojima Productions, PHYSINT, essentially the PS5 (or PS6?!?) sequel to the METAL GEAR SOLID franchise. This game will be of epic proportion, with a big hollywood movie budget, and work on this game will be accomplished around the same time as the movie release of METAL GEAR SOLID. Development on this game will not start until 2 years after the release of Death Stranding 2 (2025), therefore we are talking about 2027, and later. As we speak, people are working on the whiteboard(s), drawing board(s), to create the greatest tactical espionage action game ever created, even better, and bigger than MGS series itself. Imagine the possibilities.

What’s up, everybody! Here are JETLAG RADIO 1138 & BENKYO RADIO 1138. Do you remember the teaser for DS2? Watch it again, and then look below, it’s the full-fledge trailer for DS2. The trailer is insane, and I highly recommend you do not watch it until you finish Death Stranding & Death Stranding: Director’s Cut in their entirety. People have a lot of questions and theories about this new game, and DO NOT WORRY, I will go into very detailed live-commentary while I livestream Death Stranding: DC like I have been, and like I will be doing, over the next couple of weeks/months, until the release of DS2 in 2025. We will focus on completing the main story, and then try to do as many side missions, due to the hints it tell us about the whole story, such as the horrific facts that the terrorists (mules and/or HIGGS and his crew) utilized a prehistoric bacteria as a weapon, which may have caused the horrific pandemic inside the world of Death Stranding, which took place at the very beginning. If we’re excited about DS2 and DS3, imagine what will happen when I announce to Hideo Kojima that there’s even a stronger more complicated project: the DS 0 game, the prequel, which gives us even more details at the very beginning of the pandemic, and tells us why in the FUCK that there seems to be only a handful of African-Americans left on the entire planet. Who caused this? (In other words, game-over for #MAGACULT (KKK) and Donald Trump’s group of idiots) This is extremely dangerous and must be taken seriously. This is why Die-Hardman wears the ANICORN WATCH, which will give us even more obscure details in both DS2, and DS0, whenver those two games are finally released. Even more incredible, I will use my “time-travel” communicating device, with all my podcasts at my disposal, and the number of likes of devices inside that world, which gives us messages throughout Space-Time, making the world of Death Stranding even more fascinating, until once and for all, we defeat the final boss, HIGGS, inside the body of AMELIE (spoilers). I might even hear from Jean-Marc Mensah, my former bestfriend, whom I think was lost inside a parallel dimension, or went through a wormhole.

Until Next Time!
