Also, Neil and Nigel swap stories from their decade-long bromance and finally settle once and for all kung kinsa jud ang mas jejemon nilang duha.

In this episode, the Sugarhouse duo decides to take on another approach to recording. They start the episode discussing Michael Jordan's greatness and House of Secrets: The Burari Deaths. 

They recall the events that transpired leading up to and during Rio's birthday. They also weigh in their opinions on what being an NPC means IRL as well as being a hero in your own quest. 

As they end the episode, they remember that they should make a Halloween special, so they take a quick turn into discussing the real horror that the Filipinos are facing: Marcoses going back into power.

For this 20th episode, the Sugarhouse is graced to have David back on the podcast! They overthink and overanalyze the 1998 film "Labs Kita... Okey Ka Lang?" starred by the legend herself, Jolina Magdangal and Marvin Agustin. 

Like previous movie discussion episodes, they attempt to make a comprehensive summary of the movie and opened the doors to a discussion on "how fucked up it is to have your best friend to be like your SO except not really but your best friend is your everything but you also have your own relationship with its own commitment and problems" type of thing. Like, right? 

It's nonsense, really. Still, we had a great time recording with David over drinks!

In this episode, Rio and Neil open up about their insecurities. They start the episode talking about their shared love for takeout and discuss how this has affected their perception of their bodies. They also go back and reflect on how it was growing up as a fat kid. 

Throughout this episode, they talk more about their struggles with their body image, Rio's emotional eating, Neil's hatred for mirrors, and getting rejected for being "fat" and "ugly." 

Rio and Neil aren't mental health experts. These are all opinions, and they aim to make this a safe space to share 1/16 of their total insecurities. Everyone has their own struggles, and in the end, they realize that they don't really dwell on other people's insecurities and how it could be the same for them too.
