  • RetasoCast Ep 24.5 | Feed the Geeks Episode 1

    In this third episode of Feed the Geeks (Yes, we decided on a name, finally) we ran into some technical difficulties and lost 80 mins worth of audio recordings. What we have here is the remainder of our salvaged audio which includes a small guest appearance from our friend Vince.

    In this episode, we update you on the latest pop-culture news, plus discuss the end of The Falcon and The Winter Soldier, the new Mortal Kombat film, and the hype behind Resident Evil Village. It’s a shame we lost a bunch of audio, but hopefully you can get something out of what we were able to scramble together.  Other topics include: Our ongoing search for a female co-host, our other title that we were throwing around, and Marvel’s Thunderbolts.

    Thanks for listening!

  • RetasoCast Ep 25 | Quarter-Life Holdouts

    The two remaining holdouts of the RetasoCast gang continue to put out timely, informative, and compelling discussions despite a multitude of setbacks, unlike most of the Philippine presidents we pop off on during the episode. Also discussed: obstinate Japs, history of the insurgency, Labor Day, both KKKs, and more.


    Uneventful as this 25th episode might be, it just shows that we're still growing and working to make do with what's given to us as we continue to search for our place in the world. Or we're just stubborn as shit.

  • RetasoCast Ep 24 | Community Pantry Proliferation - New Proletarian Advocacy

    Now that everyone's earned their community pantry participation trophies, we decided to get down to brass tacks and tackle these brazen attacks on the Bayanihan spirit. Turns out we were too passionate about the topic that we ended up fighting ourselves.


    Also in this ep: Indonesian Sub Sob Story, Chauvin found guilty, and the beheading of Lapu-Lapu's legacy by politicians and pseudo-politicians.

    So bring out your ambag, humbugs. We're filling these pantries right up.

  • RetasoCast Ep 22.5 | Rule Thirdy-Fourth: Men of Pop Culture As Well

    Bayani, fourth of his name, and Thirdy are back for their second pop culture rundown, this time with more anime and JRPG waifu wars. In this ep: James Gunn's Suicide Squad, Obi-Wan cast reveal, Game of Thrones on Broadway, getting Attached on Titans, and fantasizing over Final Fantasy VII Remake's remastered milkers.

  • RetasoCast Ep 22 | Daddy Issuez Canal

    Negativity prevails this week as Bayani and Tiny finally get back on the pod thanks to their negative test results, but we also lost Pia in the process. Through the magic of editing, manipulation, and schedule micromanagement, we did manage to get everyone in for this episode.

    Listen in for maritime mishaps, belligerent boycotts, Woody Allen's inappropriate parental behavior, the withholding nature of problematic relationship dynamics, and more!

  • RetasoCast Ep 21 | Fetishization Nation & The Kapoy Confession Feat. John

    In this ep House Gwapo gets WAP-y as Bayani confesses about his current bout with the specter of the Covid scare, while we ponder on how Asian fetishists might react to our very own crazy-dicked Asian guest, the legendary John. A difference in location really does yield a difference in energy. The big dick kind.

    Plus, we take a walk down Bayani's cringe lane as we confess how we took "Kapoy" without his permission, and made it our own.

    So #StopAsianHate, love yourselves, and take care.

  • RetasoCast Ep 20 | Alleged Beach of Protocol feat. Regil & Sam

    Even the beach can't kill our bad vibes as we get political on the white sands of Bantayan for our 20th episode getaway. With us were Regil and Sam, pandemic island castaways who we dragged into our authority-critical discussions about vaccines, COVID's economic effects, Meghan & Harry, and a lot more. But hey, we had fun, too! Shout-out to Kuya Guard for waving into the camera after shutting us down!

    Be sure to listen up to the very end, as we miiiight have gotten a bit sappier than usual with our thanks. Bantayan would do that to you.

  • RetasoCast Ep 19.5 | The Day We Were Reincarnated Into a Pop-Culture Podcast Based In Cebu

    Bayani's been doing too many pop-culture rants on RetasoCast, so the council has decided that he be banished to do his own spinoff pop-culture podcast down in the basement, along with his emotional support geek Feliciano Mondigo III.

    On this ep, they dissect (a little too much) WandaVision's finale and the upcoming Snyder Cut of Justice League. Plus, the merits of Raya and the Last Dragon, and a lot more nerd stuff we don't really have time to discuss on the main pod.

    So here's episode 1 of Retaso Subcasts, spinning off!

  • RetasoCast Ep 19 | Nega-Wide Carbon Private Market

    Guess what we found out when we finally did our market research! Cebu's biggest and most iconic market is no longer "public." We had Nica from  Movement Against Carbon Market Privatization and Nanay Bebe from Cebu Urban Poor Woman's League over for a grassroots situationer.

    Shout-out Women's Month!
