What are you like? Are you not like other girls? What are they like? Is it okay to like what they like? Or do you have to like what they like? If they like what you like, should you like what they like even if they like what you don’t like? 

Say this ten times bago pakinggan ang aming bagong episode on this year’s Women’s Month series!

Sa panahon ngayon, nothing is official until it’s Facebook Official. Pero paano ang laganap na fake news, pagandahan ng bahay at buhay, mga chismis ng mga kamag-anak mong tuwing reunion mo lang nakikita…official din ba sila?

In this episode, let’s discuss the undying fascination of Pinoys with Zuck’s stolen business idea.

Sabi ng iba, we shouldn’t let politics get in the way of friendship. Sabi namin, walang ganon! 

Alamin kung bakit sa tingin namin ay inextricably linked ang politics sa pagkatao at paniniwala and bakit kailangan talaga nating pakinggan ang friendly advice ng mga trak when they say, “Distancia, Amigo!”

Shoutout kay Negastar Yoyen, ang Chief Maritess ng Bacoor, na kumanta at naglapat ng musika sa aming intro!

Do you want to do the hustle? Kasi kami hindi. San ba kasi nagmula yang concept of the grind at kailan naging cool ang mamatay over career advancement?

Pakinggan kaming himayin ang napaka-kapitalistang notion ng success at kung bakit it’s a hard pass for us.

Musta na diet? Kung nainsulto ka sa tanong na ito, malamang:

A. Meron kang pre-existing life goals na laging napupurnada (in which case, RIP, and you are beautiful no matter what)

Why do we do this to ourselves ba? Samahan kaming magmuni-muni sa isang very light, non-political, New Year episode.

Sa sobrang walang kwenta ng mga to sa greater scheme of political things, it took us a couple of weeks to upload this episode because who cares?

Samahan niyo ulit kami sa aming (post) Christmas/year-ender episode na tatalakay sa mga alipores ni The Turtle at bakit all roads lead to BlengBlong pa rin, mga ul*l!

In the great tradition of this podcast's consistent inconsistency, we bring you a themeless one-year anniversary episode that, for some reason, ay lagi pa ring nauuwi sa galit namin sa capitalism. So may theme pa rin ng very light? We think?

Basta ang importante, it has the right mix of tita tawa, pointed poot, at classic contempt na binabalik-balikan niyo.  So join us this week (and hopefully, more weeks to come) as we bitterly barda all things under the sun!

Respect our opinion na lang! Dahil sa episode na ito, mahaba-habang rant ang maririnig ninyo tungkol sa kandidatong daig lahat ng kontrabidang mayaman sa lahat ng soap opera in the history of television.

Pagnanakaw? Check! Pagsisinungaling? Check! Historical revisionism with a huge serving of gaslighting on the side? Check na check!

Kaya kung isa kayo sa mga hindi pa decided or matagal nang nakikipagtalo sa mga graduate ng Basta School of Philosophy, makinig na at let's all commiserate the fact na kailangan pa naming i-record ang episode na ito! Anumpetsa na!

Trigger Warning: This episode contains mentions of sexual assault, rape, and psychological and physical trauma.

Sabi nila “nice guys finish last.” Eh kung isa ka sa mga nice guy na pinagusapan namin sa episode na ito, you deserve it!

Talakayin natin ang alamat ng Nice Guy™ and how self-proclaimed “Not All Men”-inists hide their misogyny and toxic masculinity behind this seemingly innocuous title.

Learn how to spot the difference between an actual good guy from the mapagbalatkayong “hindi ako ganyan” type na pinapalala ang chakang kultura ng “boys will be boys”. #IncelTriggerWarning

Pa-validate, Mamsir! Ano nga ba ang mayroon sa obsession ng mga Pinoy sa mga top eme, best in chuchu, at most ekek? Bakit kailangan gawing personality trait ang pagiging doctor, lawyer, nurse, UP grad, o anak/pinsan/kaibigan/long-lost first love ng barangay captain na ninong sa kumpil si mayor? Lahat ba tayo ay secretly stockholders ng mga pagawaan ng tarp?

Samahan kami sa aming pagmumuni na may halong super hilaw na pagti-theorize tungkol sa favorite Filipino pastime of self-aggrandizement at clout-chasing.
