BLOGPOST UPDATE IN PROGRESS

What’s up, everybody! Here are JETLAG RADIO 314 & BENKYO RADIO 314.

Please enjoy July 4th weekend responsibly. If you’re in California, I implore you to leave fireworks to the professionals. It’s fire season, and if you remember the last few summers, we would like not to witness that again. If you’re going to drink, please select a Designated Driver, Uber/Lyft/Taxi/Bus/Train/Flight/Spaceship. Always wear your seatbelt. Remember, you’re not just doing this for your own safety, but for those around you. Thanks in advance. PS. If you must drink and still need to drive, please drink a 0.0% alcohol beer, such as Heineken 0.0%. It’s got the same taste of beer, and no alcohol. You can drink one, and still drive without getting in trouble. Highly recommended.

Until next time!
