  • Being known around the world for good coffee isn’t good enough for Italy. A brewing dispute over a Unesco designation for coffee heritage has left many Italians with a bitter taste in their mouths. Pietro Lombardi and Cecilia Butini spill the tea in the Wall Street Journal by filtering the single origin issue through the history of cultural conflict between Italy’s north and south. Omitted by all parties though is coffee’s true origins: East Africa and the Middle East. —David Yanofsky, Things editor [Quartz]

What’s up, everybody, here are JETLAG RADIO 281 & BENKYO RADIO 281.

I was really disappointed by the European Super League announcement. It lasted 48 hours. It was a terrible idea. That’s a hint about the Mafia-Operating-Super-System-AD-vertising (MOSSAD). All the big club owners are Americans and were driven by greed. Real Football (Soccer) supporters and fans were not going to have it. There are a lot of people who are poor or middle-class, and for them, Football (Soccer) is their religion. Their ability to watch their favorite team on the weekend is what they live for. They adore their club. It’s not like the NBA where when your favorite player leaves, you suddenly become a bandwagon fan. I have been a Manchester United supporter since the early 1990s, meaning before I was even 10 years old. I still have yet to make the pilgrimage to Manchester which I hope to make someday. Football is here to stay, and once everybody is vaccinated, the stadiums will be filled with fans, and they will cheer their favorite teams once again. The players have been playing without fans for over a year, and it’s been tough on them.

The video below is in French. If you do not speak French, I apologize. If you speak French, great! If you don’t, you should learn it! It’s a great language. Check out Duolingo.

Until next time!
