What’s up, everybody! It’s Thursday, December 27th, 2025. I watched two great French movies available on YouTube. One was called “Un Homme Au Pair” and the other “Un Homme Par Hasard” both Romantic Comedies between a man and a woman. Enjoy. As always, CDC is supended due to Trump’s stupidity, therefore to this other portal for videos on FLU, COVID-19, RSV, NOROVIRUS, MONKEYPOX, etc. Thank you, “American Medical Association (AMA).” Big shoutout to all Doctors/Nurses and everybody who works in a Hospital. My HULU membership was cancelled so I won’t be able to watch E.R. (TV) for a while now. Really upsetting. I was almost at the George Clooney episode where he saved that young boy and became famous and left the show to become a movie star including his time as Batman.

I played NBA 2K25 over the weekend, and the game is great so far, but it appears that there’s so much to do in the game, it’ll take a while to get used to. Had to make 150-180GBs of space in order to enjoy it. That means GOTHAM KNIGHTS will have to wait, but we’ll still play Batman: Arkham City in the meantime. Getting near to defeat The Penguin…

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.

What’s up, everybody! It’s Monday, February 17th, 2025. Hope you had a wonderful Valentine’s Day weekend. I didn’t do much, since I did not have a Valentine (going through a divorce), despite all 6 Planets lined up in the sky in our Milky Way. It’s heartbreaking. I did eat some chicken wings with hot BBQ sauce, it was not the perfect hot BBQ sauce from Buffalo Wild Wings, but it was enough to get me through the day. Anyway, it’s Presidents’ Day, I hope some of you got to enjoy some good deals, I did not. I should have been able to purchase my first brand-new car today: an Audi RS6 Avant, or a BMW M5 Touring, but I still do not have the funds. This is despite 25 years of work, including 6 years unpaid. Anyway, as we are at a standstill, I refuse to keep doing updates/upgrades for free, this is EXPLOITATION. JETLAG RADIO 3000 is coming, but we’ll have to wait. I need my new car. In about 1-2 weeks, I’m going on my 3-week-trip to France. Wish me luck. Gotta find investors, or a French Startup willing to hire me. Can’t wait to talk to #LaFrenchTech in Grenoble, and maybe contact Station F via telephone (Paris, France)…USA won’t help me financially? (5 months without $800/month = over $3000 I’m missing) I’ll ask France, Germany, Netherlands, or Japan for help. PS. I will do my best to go to the Tofu Shop this weekend (02/21/2025), that’s assuming I have a full tank of gas, and I need a gas card to return home. PPS. I visited Penny University Cafe Shop in Modesto, CA, it was awesome. I look forward visiting it again whenever I come to town for appointments, etc (also visit the local bookstore).
