What’s up, everybody! Here are JETLAG RADIO 432 & BENKYO RADIO 432.

I got an Apple Watch Series 7, and so far, my favorite function is the Chronograph, and the ability to switch displays. The Health functions are great, but I despise having to charge a watch every day. I looked at Apple Laptops (I need MacOS for Logic Pro, but Mac Mini 2022 is still delayed), but cannot in good conscience spend $3500 for 32GB of RAM on a MBP. That is the quintessential reason why young teenagers hate Mac People because it means that you’re “rich.” I know what it’s like to be the kid with the TOSHIBA or etc, and how the other kids make fun of the kid with a non-brand name laptop. That is why I am extremely proud of Satya Nadella for making $250 Windows Surface SE special versions, which come with the Microsoft Office Suite. These laptops have everything for Students to learn, and focus on learning, not spend all days making emojis. It is time for Tim Cook to release an MBP (not a Macbook Air) at $1000, it’s the least he can do now that Apple is worth $3 Trillion Dollars. Will he be another evil Billionaire like Elon Musk, or will he grow empathy? Time will tell. Also there’s no point delaying the 2002 Mac Mini. Release it already. Stop making Mac Products for Rich people bracket. If your products are so amazing, you need to let people from poor and middle-income brackets have access to them. I’m not spending $3500 on a laptop that can’t even run Microsoft Project.

My Razer laptop is still a Beast, and I want to enjoy FL Studio 20.9 new release. Unfortunately I have to keep writing new reports because of Trump and his mob of people who are trying to destroy our democracy. Now you know why I don’t have time to DJ, and why I make mixtapes whenever I get a chance.

I love the Initial D movies! I can’t believe the next series of TV show, MF Ghost is coming out in 2023! It’s going to be awesome!

Cavs are doing amazing this season! Fingers crossed, they’ll get far in the Playoffs! Kevin Love really pumped those guys up! It’s amazing!

Terrible performance from Manchester United recently. They really need to get to work because the new Manager is not messing around, he will remove you from the squad if you’re not performing. You are paid millions of dollars to kick the ball around. Supporters live paycheck to paycheck, and Football/Soccer is a religion. They spend their hard-earned money and cash to watch your matches on the football pitch, or on TV. Stop letting them down. This is MANCHESTER UNITED. Sir Bobby Charlton is 84 fucking years old, don’t disappoint him during his remaining glorious years on Planet Earth. Thanks in advance.

Advance Wars™ 1+2: Re-Boot Camp has been delayed to Spring 2022. I am upset but then again I do not own a Nintendo Switch as of yet.

I am making further advancements in Final Fantasy VII: Remake.

There is a harsh cold winter coming to Afghanistan. Millions of children will die. President Biden needs to send funds, and avoid a catastrophe.

Until Next Time!
