What’s up, everybody! It’s Friday, November 28th, 2025. TGIF! It’s Black Friday! I hope you enjoy your weekend. For Black Friday, under my very limited budget, I got the special discount of Apple TV 6 months for $36. I got Mission Impossible: The Final Reckoning for $9.99 on iTunes. I got BLEACH REBIRTH OF SOULS for PS5. What I really need for Black Friday is 64GB of RAM and renew my yearly anti-virus membership for my Lenovo Legion. I cannot afford at this point. Hopefully someone will be willing to help. This will ensure the success of my startup, my company, my corporation: ZACK TECHNOLOGY LLC, where I am a Superintelligence SME. If you’re familiar with my work, I work on Technology, World Affairs (Affaires Étrangères), and Electronic Music. Focus on the power of #MentalHealth, Emotional Support, and Music Therapy. Thank you to my unique 500 monthly readers on my website, my 20,000 unique weekly readers on LinkedIn, and my 900 followers on Twitter (SUPERFRENCHBIGZ) plus my 800 followers on Instagram (IAMZAKI). Have a wonderful weekend, and please be safe. Don’t forget my PSA about driving, don’t drink and drive (and definitely don’t be under the influence of drugs), always drink a 0.0% Alcohol Beer if you’re driving, or get an Uber/Lyft/Taxi/Cab/Train/Metro/Subway/Plane, etc. I appreciate you for doing this, and your parents will appreciate that as well, it’s fun to have fun this weekend, but only if you return home in one piece.

Until Next Time!

Thursday/Jeudi November/Novembre 27th, 2025 HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

What’s up, everybody! It’s Thursday, November 27th, 2025. I want to say I appreciate everybody working today, especially those who are EMTs, Firefighters, Police Officers, Doctors, Nurses, Medical Staff, etc. As for our Military Members and Veterans, I hope you have the ability to spend time with your families if you are home, or at the very least, have a video conference call with them, or a phone call. Very important. Happy Thanksgiving! JETLAG RADIO 4221 is now available on Spotify. Shoutout to all DJs around the world, and everybody who is flying and is “JETLAGGED.” Put some headphones on, but don’t put the volume too loud, don’t damage your ears. It’s the last major podcast update/upgrade for a while. Let me know what you think. ^_^! PS. Don’t forget that the Cincinnati Bengals are playing for Thanksgiving Day against the Baltimore Ravens. #WhoDey!!!

What’s up, everybody! It’s Wednesday, November 26th, 2025. Don’t forget that Thanksgiving is tomorrow. Be sure to have fun amongst your family and don’t forget to call your loved ones, even if they don’t answer. Remember my story a long ago about my short-term ex-gf Morgan P. at The Ohio State University when we argued over a stupid USB cable for a printer. Years later we kept arguing over when to meet up again. We never did. She unfortunately died in a car accident sliding on some ice during Winter (she was hit by a truck) around Christmas about 1-2 decades ago. Life on this Earth is precious. As you look at 3I/ATLAS, the third Interstellar Comet in the sky, remember, don’t wait, tell those you love, that you love them. Or else you may regret it. You just never know. R.I.P. Morgan P.

What’s up, everybody! It’s Wednesday, November 19th, 2025. It’s Music Day! Here are some news. Someone pulled a dangerous prank on me and changed the sticker inside my car for tire pressure. It said 29 PSI. That’s impossible, because I looked it up online, and Gemini 3.0 AI said it ought to be around 33 PSI at cold tire pressure for a 2013 VW Passat. I went to 2 Jiffy Lube locations, both of them clueless about VWs, and just assume to go by what the sticker said, not knowing that obviously, this PSI was way too low for such a mid-size sedan. I am very sad, and I have to go there again, and get it resolved, because I have to pick up a family member from the Airport soon, something many of us do during the holidays. As you may know, Thanksgiving is upon us, and of course I want Dad to be here to carve the Turkey. Anyway, let’s hope Jiffy Lube figures out the issue, fixes to the correct PSI, because I have to drive 10 mile with the car before the “low pressure tire” light stops being on, assuming it’s correct. I wish I could travel to the Car Shop in Fremont, CA, but I do not have enough gas money. I haven’t had my $500/month allowance + $300/month credit card allowance in over a year. I’ve applied to so many jobs, it’s exhausting, no luck. Either underqualified or overqualified. It’s been very difficult. I heard rumors that the Fujiwara Tofu Bistro would reopen. Who knows, maybe they’ll reopen in Sacramento, CA, or even closer in Elk Grove, CA. You never know…
