What’s up, everybody! Here are JETLAG RADIO 452 & BENKYO RADIO 452.

I am fucking sick and tired of people not listening to John Kerry. He’s doing his best to discuss Climate Change. But guess what, not enough people pay attention to him. Why not? Because he’s not a twenty-something beautiful Bimbo blonde on Pundit television, not enough people is listening to what he’s saying. There was a COP26, there’s a COP27, and more on the way. I understand people don’t think IPCC reports are sexy, but guess what, they did it: they made a movie called “Don’t Look Up” which is a metaphor about Climate Change. It has a powerful message. While our two heroes are doing their best to warn the world about the Comet, the people are only worried about how to make money from the Comet. And that’s what it feels like. Climate Change is a big problem. But Fossil Fuel Corporations just continue to think: “how can we make more money?”

Therefore, I am asking Netflix to release a TV show about Climate Change, not a documentary, but a drama series. Think The West Wing, but about Climate Change. It will be super popular, and it’ll be about many individuals working hard to get this happen. Might be the best thing on TV since the first 5min of the first episode of The Newsroom TV show.

Until Next Time!
