The Americans get shit on, quite literally

Billy Pilgrim is unstuck in time.

Chapter 4; this may over lap the last episode. The sound is also crap. Who wants to buy me a MacBook Pro or even just a mic and a tablet…kidding…I was the Pro versions.

This episode is a COVID episode. There is no music track, I hope it’s even in order. I’m sorry for the delay. I am part of the 45% that the vaccine didn’t work. However, take into account how many people I come into contact with.

Billy doing Billy Tonight I was drinking. I don’t drink and read very often, well I don’t drink, so this episode is what happens when a dyslexic gets tipsy. I am unedited. Because why would I edit?

Season 9 Episode 3 This is the first time we know for sure Billy Pilgrim is unstuck. He goes back and forth to places in his life then back to WWII. Captured by the Germans…

Billy Pilgrim is unstuck in time.

All of this happened, more or less.
