The Navs Effect

On the latest episode, Navs gives his thoughts on what's next for the Philippine men's national basketball team plus the audio from the press conference of Jo Koy talking about his latest movie "Easter Sunday."

We've done 2-in-1 episodes before. This time, we're doing three-in-one. This one's special though. Navs and Flash had a busy week so they got so excited and decided to talk about three titles that recently came out. First is the latest Jordan Peele movie - "Nope." Then they went to "She-Hulk" Season 1 and then moved on to HBO's latest offering "House of Dragon." Are they all worth watching? Are they good as advertised? Well, listen and find out!

Navs is joined by representatives from 8chain and Max Rep, a new cryptocurrency-based NFT that allows users to earn money WHILE working out at the same time. Learn all about their project and what they aim to accomplish!

Skills training has become essential for pro hoopers to enhance their game. One of the best to do it in Philippines explains his style and the background story that led to his ultimate passion project.

Tim Cone was recently tapped by the Miami Heat to be part of their Summer League team as an assistant coach. Navs and fellow sports beat writer Reuben Terrado were given a chance to interview the PBA's winningest coach and the well-respected basketball mentor was game as he talked about his relationship with Miami Heat head coach Eric Spoelstra, the differences between the PBA and the basketball athletes in the NBA, and a lot more!

Navs speaks with Filipino-American basketball standout Jayden Harper about his future which may include playing in the Philippines and representing the national team. He then welcomes Sarah Carlos and Max Cruz to dig deep into how much they liked (or didn’t like?) Thor: Love and Thunder. Also: GOD OF WAR!!!

Navs is joined by standout Green Archer Evan Nelle to discuss the tough ending for La Salle in UAAP Season 84 and how he hopes to help the university bounce back as they aim for title aspirations when the collegiate league returns in October. Also: tons of stories, anecdotes, and fun conversations with one of the sport’s most interesting players.

We have another two-part episode, folks!

Fresh from being drafted in the PBA with the 5th overall pick in this year's draft, Gian Mamuyac, former Ateneo Blue Eagle and part of its last three UAAP championships joins Navs as they talk about his last season in Ateneo, his first season in the PBA with Rain or Shine and a lot more. 

For the second part, local pop culture aficionados Glenmarc 'Flash' Antonio and Dian Raval, a writer for Flip Geeks, returns for another round of discussions about the 6th and season ending episode of 'Obi-Wan Kenobi.' The trio mulled over what they liked about the show's first season, how it connects to the Star Wars canon, and what they hope to see in should the powers-that-be decide to make another season.

Enjoy!
