Sometimes lost is where you need to be. Just because you don't know your direction doesn't mean you don't have one.

A great light suddenly flashed on over Canada! Good one, Denis ===[**WCF**]===
To waste one second of one's life is a betrayal of one's self. I wonder what's on television...?

I think that the answer may well be Popeye, as I believe that there was some kind of link to Joe Palooka and I seem to remember that Denis is quite a Popeye fan. Perhaps Popeye was knocked out by Joe in an episode: however, I cannot come up with a better justification!

I don't think we can call that one legal, Denis.
Netflix needs to stop asking if I'm still watching and start asking if I've switched the laundry over yet

I don't think we can call that one legal, Denis. Not legal? I was doing this: Palooka knocked out a sailor (6) knocked out a = the a is gone, leaving palook. pa = pop, look = eye Where did I err...so I don't do it again?

What still need more hints?! Era is one of the times in the answer to the main clue, and the bonus clue has a Jewish reference.

I'm pretty sure I have both answers but explaining them is another story. I'll say what I know. Maybe someone else can carry it the rest of the way in....
l-iterat-ure I get the "pinch one" but the only thing I can find for terat that has something to do with "3" is that it has something to do with the third person
sporadic "p" and "ora" di (i'd returned) not sure where s and c come from

Literature is correct and took us a while to justify: it is lure (temptation) containing (to pinch) i (one) + t + era + t (3 times), so the belt goes to you Cue ===[**WCF**]=== The bonus clue was diaspora - as pora after di, so not quite in the pocket!
