What’s up, everybody! It’s Saturday, February 22nd, 2025. I went to the Sacramento Kings versus Golden State Warriors game last night at the Golden1 Center (my brother had tickets), and it was amazing. Great ambiance, great food, great beer, etc. It’s really motivating me to finally push for temporarily delete some games including some that I am playing right now, just to play NBA 2K25. It’s a 180GB game, with a 2-3hr installation process. If you’re tuning in just now, I will record a special livestream tonight. See you then. PS. Recorded a bunch of new Astérix & Obélix: Slap them All livestream videos in French, enjoy. The video below is my Dream Car: the Audi RS6 Avant GT 2025. It costs $200K. After 14 years of JETLAG RADIO, over a decade of writing 4 million words, over 700 livestreams and 200 videos, I think I deserve one. For example, MKBHD was able to buy himself a Tesla Model S soon after he got YouTube famous. iJustine was able to purchase 300 computers soon after she got YouTube famous. How long must I wait to receive the fruits of my labor? I want a #GermanEngineering sports wagon sedan. It’s my dream to own the Audi RS6 Avant, or the BMW M5 Touring.

Videogames are cool but please walk a bit. The problem between America and Europe such as France, is that in France, in every major cities, you walk everywhere. In America, everybody goes around by car, mostly. You know how important it is to try to get that 5K steps a day? Well, in France, I used to get 30K-35K steps a day, it was that intense. Please understand that this is how French people stay so thin, they eat as much as us, it’s just that they go on intense walks on a daily basis, and don’t eat fast food 3-5 times a week like Americans.

Don’t forget to get flowers, chocolate, greeting card for that special someone since tomorrow is Valentine’s Day. I’m going through a divorce so I’m threading deep waters. I’ll probably just livestream on Playstation, who knows, maybe a gaming lady will reach my sorrows. Although most of my games are military-style (Call of Duty, Battlefield 2042, Ghost Recon: Breakpoint), so I don’t know. Look, we’ll just deal with it tomorrow. Anyway, being technically married still, cannot do much. Are you even allowed to have a Valentine? I want to ask Celebrity Audrey Marie Anderson.
