What’s up, everybody! Here are JETLAG RADIO 985 & BENKYO RADIO 985. I am extremely happy about Stade Rennais aka SRFC’s performance in the Europa League. My hope is that they win that trophy and return next year in the UCL (Champions League). Regardless, I now have their matches on DVR on TV, therefore, I would love for them to win la Ligue 1. Allez les Rouge et Noir! I tend to have Manchester United on FIFA 23, but after they came during their Summer League U.S. Tour to play against Wrexham United, not a SINGLE major player came on the field. As someone who has never been able to afford a flight to England to watch the Red Devils, I was devastated. Especially since I never got to physically witness CR7 in a red shirt in real-life. Therefore, when I play EA FC 24, I believe I will play a season with Stade Rennais. 1985 is the year I arrived in France, and a place I will cherish forever. I hope I can someday have the luxury to find a PAYING salary job that lets me afford to fly there on a regular basis. Waiting 9 years just to spend 2-3 days there is simply not enough. I need to get hired by #LaFrenchTech, and commute between USA and France. Let’s make it happen. I want to fly there 6 times a year at the very least. I just miss the french culture. In America, if you complain “too much,” you’re considered a narcissist. In France, if you complain, there’s no such thing, EVERYBODY IS COMPLAINING, it’s a regular thing that happens every day. Everybody gets their cup of coffee and chit-chat. It’s in the culture. I refuse to be called an asshole and a snob, when all I’m doing is trying to have a conversation and say, look some shit piss me off, I’m gonna talk about it. The Trump TV show charade never seems to go away, I’m tired of the bullshit, we have bigger problems. There’s the Ukraine war, and the rise of the extreme-right in France. The 2027 French Presidential Elections are not that far away. President Macron is going to snap, if he has to spend the next 3 fucking years dealing with all these things. It’s time for Segolene Royal and Bruno LeMaire to make sure they are both out there, and definitely end up on the 2nd round of elections. If France deals with the Right and Extreme-Right as a choice for presidency, something that has happened for the last 20 fucking years, everybody is going to call for the guillotine.

I want every French Rugby player to remind themselves where they were during the FIFA World Cup in Germany, when France lost to Italy during penalty kicks. I want you to remember that moment, channel that anger, and win this match against Italy for your fellow countrymen, and for the fighting spirit of la France. Should you need more motivation, I suggest you witness the Full Metal Panic! Fumoffu Rugby episode. Enjoy.

What’s up, everybody! Here are JETLAG RADIO 980 & BENKYO RADIO 980. Now, I absolutely adore BMWs. I worked for BMW FS, and unfortunately, I was in a serious car accident, and my idiotic manager let me go while I was still in the hospital. I guess that is the kind of treatment they give to contractors instead of salary employees. I miss that company, I used to love going in the office, I’d show up at 5am instead of 9am. It was my dream to drive a BMW, and when my recruiter asked me “where do you see yourself in 5 years?” I calmly explain: I see myself inside a BMW. I got to go to WeatherTech Laguna Seca and see the BMW M8 GT3, it was awesome. In Germany, during Part 1 of my honeymoon, I went to the Nürburgring and watched a race event, and it basically had all my dream cars from DTM including BMW. In the local bar, I used a BMW simulator, and drove a simulated lap around the Green Hell. It was fucking awesome. My first tweet on Twitter in 2009 was that I dream to drive a BMW M3. I have made over 149.5 thousand tweets, making LOTS AND LOTS of people tremendous amounts of money, but I have yet to be able to afford this $80,000 vehicle. Please help me reach this dream. Thank you.

What’s up, everybody! Here are JETLAG RADIO 979 & BENKYO RADIO 979. Now, if you were unfamiliar with what Air Force Special Tactics Combat Controllers do, here’s a nice video to explain to you what the hell these guys do. Obviously, 1979 is the year of the Soviet Invasion of Afghanistan, a tragic event in that part of the world, and we all know that someday, somehow, Commander Ahmad Massoud, Son of Commander Massoud, Leader of the Northern Alliance, will retake the country from these idiotic Talibans who dare to meet with Russians. I mean seriously, Putin is a dead man walking for this. 1979 is also the year of the creation of The Unit, as seen in the tv series. These actors are not getting any younger, so if you guys want to make a movie adaptation, now is the time.

Until Next Time!
