Now Steaming: Conversations on Tsinoy Life

When I realized my dream of becoming a radio DJ, I thought I could finally shed my past as a nerdy and insecure kid. I was supposed to be this cool and aspirational figure now, right? Not exactly. This week, I'm telling you the stories of how I made an idiot out of myself because I thought I had game, but really didn't. As a bonus, I also included the story of how I got bashed on-air on a popular morning radio show on a competing station and the lessons I learned from that experience. Strap in because all of these stories are on deck!

I used to really resent it whenever people would tell me that being a radio DJ was great because I only worked a few hours a day, but I couldn't figure out why I felt that way. The more I thought about it, the more I realized that the work didn't stop after we'd signed off. That's because being a radio DJ entails more work beyond the presenting/hosting that you hear on-air. I'll get into all of the different hats radio DJs wear in this week's episode. Strap in because it's storytime with Stan Sy and it's all on deck!

I thought being a legit radio DJ would instantly get rid of my insecurities. I was dead wrong. In fact, I was pretty insecure about myself and my career through much of my run on radio! I get into where my insecurities ultimately came from (at least, to the best of my abilities), and how they spiralled further the more I got inside my own head as a radio personality. Strap in because it's storytime with Stan Sy and it's all on deck!

It's been a year since I was last on the radio, and for the first time, I get raw and candid about why that happened. I open up about struggling to accept the fact that my departure from the airwaves is out of my control and how it frustrates me that I didn't get the closure I wanted. I'm not even sure if I'm remotely near being "at peace" with it all, whatever that means. Come for the raw feelings, but stay for the introspection. It's all On Deck with Stan Sy.
