On Deck episode 2 picks up where we left off from season 1; but now the hosts delve deeper into the broad term and meaning of "harassment." 

Is harassment subjective? Do people tend to overreact? Where do we draw the line between 'jokes' and harassment? Join our hosts in this discussion.

On Deck Season 2 starts strong!! The crew talks about political correctness and how rampant its effects are, especially in the Philippines and in society. The hosts delve deeper into its pros and cons, the hard truth, cancel culture, politics, race, and reconciling differences.

Together with our hosts, Chi San Juan, Justin Joson, and Marcus Asinas, we will be talking about Harassment Cases. This episode tackles the definition of harassment: What does it entail? What happens in cases of false accusations? What sort of situations are truly considered as harassment?  

This episode aims to make students more conscious of certain behaviors that may make someone feel harassed. It is structured in a way that would allow the hosts to present their current perceptions of harassment as well as to iron out misconceptions or solidify correct beliefs.
