In this episode of Popoy and Basher, we finally talk about the movie that inspired the name of this podcast: One More Chance. We do a pseudo deep dive into the surface-level stuff we've been learning about psychology and attachment theory (we tried) from our favorite YouTuber, Psychology In Seattle; and conclude the episode talking about the John Lloyd Cruz hypothesis.  Oh, don't deprive your girlfriend of fried chicken skin. Just don't.    

Starring John Lloyd Cruz and Bea Alonzo.

The interwebs is abuzz with Antoinette Jadaone's #MMFF2020 entry Fan Girl and with good reason. So here we are, releasing this special spoiler-free Christmas episode about Fan Girl, the best, worst, and darkest gift of 2020. We stan this film hard and recommend it "to the whole Philippine nation." Eugene (aka Budget Paulo) is serious when he says he will pay for your ticket to watch it! Do it! (and follow our accounts while you're at it :p). 

Starring Charlie Dizon and Paulo Avelino.

In this episode we greet you ohayo gozaimasu / konnichiwa / konbanwa as we join Hazeru's escape from her Overly Kontrabida Nanay™ to the idyllic city of Saga, Japan, where she meets Adonis Anderson at a Japanese 'dampa'. Eugene-san recounts his days in Tokyo, while Dani tries her very best to contain her disdain toward this film (she really did). Starring Gerald Anderson and Julia Barretto.

We can't seem to get enough of Aga Muhlach films set in North America. Eugene laments his OFW take on "Vancouver the Movie"; Dani was not 'kilig' with the pairing of the young and vibrant Bea Alonzo and an aging Aga Muhlach. Love conquers all, as long as you have universal healthcare.

We review the feel-good 2018 Star Cinema hit "The Hows of Us", starring reel (and real) life couple Kathryn Bernardo and Daniel Padilla. Eugene thinks Amsterdam is really beautiful and Dani needs to define what trivia means.

We talk for nearly 30 mins about how much we enjoyed Antoinette Jadaone's 2019 film Alone/Together and reminisced UP life as non-UP graduates (feeling lang namin). Starring Liza Soberano and Enrique Gil. 

P.S.  We're on #TeamGreg

We talk about Sana Maulit Muli, a classic '90s Pinoy romance movie, starring Aga Muhlach and Lea Salonga. 

Plus: OFW insights from an OFW. (Tip: don't cause a ruckus at your local panaderiya.)

We struggle to dissect and make sense out of the 2016 romcom Always Be My Maybe starring Gerald Anderson and Arci Munoz. "At least they tried."

In this pilot episode, Dani and Eugene talk about the Popoy and Basher project and their favorite Pinoy rom-coms.
