Telebabad Tapes

Or in other words: Is moving out still a thing?

Here it goes: Married? In a serious relationship? And still living in your parents’ home?

What if you finally want to break out of the nest, and yet with the Filipino economy in shambles, you really can’t? Frustrating, right?

Fret not, dear podpal. Join us in this three-way telebabad session with special guest Tats Paman as we discuss every topic that falls under the banner of ‘pagbukod’.

Juicy sidebars include living with in-laws, dividing the bills, and yes! the joys of being naked all day in your condo. (TMI, yes.)

Andy Warhol once said, “"In the future, everyone will be world-famous for fifteen minutes." And by God, he was right, thanks to Instagram and TikTok!

Ah, fame. What’s it all about?

In this episode, we talk everything we can about fame, from Cj’s experience as a quasi-child star in the ‘90s to Wincy’s stint as an indie actor in the late 2000s. Other sidebars include riding airplanes with John Lloyd Cruz and why showbiz is the best training ground for politicians.

Tune in to another immersive telebabad session, podpals!

It’s our 100th episode, podpals! And with this, we’re experimenting with a new talk format called #TelebabadMoKaya.

We’re featuring our first submission all the way from Canada—a certain Maple Girl who wants us to discuss the topic of intercultural couples!

So sit back, enjoy a cuppa, and listen as talk about the ever-so-confusing dynamics of this type of ‘ship. Plus a host of other sidebars on Spanish-looking teleserye villains, whitening products and of course, the Cafe Havana phenomenon.

Thank you for your continued support, podpals!

Cj talks with her good friend Richard Bolisay, film critic, professor, and writer of the books Break It To Me Gently and Nothing Deep, about their favorite British limited series FLEABAG. They talk about how FLEABAG and Phoebe Waller-Bridge capture the Millennial psyche of messiness, self-aware humor, flirting, and so much more! Quite an insightful, fun, and juicy episode.

Check out Richard Bolisay's second book, Nothing Deep. In his second collection of essays, Richard Bolisay speaks to personalities from Philippine cinema and shares their stories. He goes to a film shoot and observes the fortuitous meeting between its star and director. He pays tribute to a beloved filmmaker. He rhapsodizes about love teams and examines the movies of two of the biggest pairs of the era. He visits the house of an actor known for his ease and effortlessness. He writes an encompassing appraisal of the career of an influential screenwriter. Weaving together incisive critique and tender storytelling, Nothing Deep contains these instances and other dispatches from the alleyways of Filipino film in the 2010s and offers time capsules of its joys, sorrows, and transformations.

What's the difference between nice and kind? Is there even a difference? Because it surely is something we've put much thought into.

In this fun episode, we talk about this topic as we segue from one sidebar to the next--from trapos and their branded gift packs to giving alms to the poor. Plus, we've included a sliding scale of sorts in our discussion!

Join in on the convo, podpals, whether you're nice or kind!

Boundaries — We’ve been encountering this word more often in the past few years. In this episode, Cj and Wincy talk about boundaries in our different social relationships: with family, romantic partners, friends, and colleagues. How can we set boundaries if we are scared of conflict? How can we respond to people who are setting their boundaries with us? We’ve got tips and so much more!

Yes, we at Telebabad Tapes are such big Tim Burton fans! And we loved the Netflix hit show Wednesday so much.

So here we are, podpals, excited to talk about our lives as weirdos, Goth fashion, normies, and everything dark and dreary!

So sit back and listen as we stan Jenna Ortega and go on other sidebars!
