The Skeptic and The Rusty episodes

  • TSATR S02E02: "It's hard to be in a Long Distance Relationship." ft. Kim Yap and Phyl Dela Cruz

    Long Distance Relationships are quite complicated when you think about it. Most people frown upon the idea that they would be far apart from their special someone. In some cases, there are LDRs that are still reachable, while others are miles apart from one another. The feeling of not being able to spend "quality time" can somewhat be challenging and can sometimes even push us to do unspeakable things like infidelity. 

    On this episode, Ziggy and Russel are joined by Phyl and Kim as they talk about Long Distance Relationships and how their experiences were with it. Hear out what they have to say and let us know what you think!

  • TSATR S02E01: "Who are Toxic People?"

    "Toxic People" can be defined as an individual (or are individuals) who have a very negative and self-entitled outlook in life. They are the people who never fails to give negative stress towards us and the very presence of them makes us breakdown and just go nuts. 

    More often than not, these people are a big nuisance and just tend to be parasitic in nature. Luckily, we can avoid these people by identifying who they are and where they can be found. Either it's your family member, close friend, acquaintance, workmate, or even that ex you're still friends with. Listen to Ziggy and Russel as they tackle toxic people and how to deal with them.

  • TSATR S01 FINALE: Of Good Times and Fan Boys ft. DJ Mo Twister of GTWM

    The Skeptic and The Rusty is a year old and what better way to celebrate an anniversary than to have collabs with other shows!

    Our guest is no stranger with being on the mic and he's had his show going on for about 9 years now. He is dubbed as the "Ear to all your problems" and "The Philippine Genius", the host of GTWM, DJ Mo Twister.

    When we started this show, we just wanted to share our experiences with everyone and hoped that people can relate to us so they wouldn't commit the same mistakes as we did. Yeah, we did share them but there were cases that remained open and we had to ask DJ Mo what he thought about these situations. 

    Tune-in and find out how Ziggy and Russel went all fanboy with DJ Mo.

  • TSATR S01E44: Of Movie Feels and One More Chance ft. Mike and Ham of Please Pause Podcast

    The Skeptic and The Rusty is a year old and what better way to celebrate an anniversary than to have collabs with other shows!

    Our guests are from the podcast called Please Pause with Mike and Ham and together, we picked apart the Filipino classic, One More Chance.

    Tune-in and see how Ziggy, Russel, Mike, and Ham shared their sentiments about John Lloyd lashing out the lines "T*ngina, ganyan ka ba katigas, Bash?!" while Bea sported the "New hair, new me" kinda BS. Don't forget Maja with her legendary line "Ip OnLi iT cUd bI DuN".

    We all know what the movie about is, right? Well, who doesn't? If you're Filipino and a hopeless romantic, chances are you've already seen this one and may or may bot have cried your eyes out.

  • TSATR S01E43: Of the End of the World and How People React to It

    Our thoughts and prayers to those who have been greatly affected by the Taal Volcano's explosion.

    What would you do if humanity was in the brink of extinction? Would it be death by zombie apocalypse, aliens, a virus, or a natural calamity? We all say that we know what we'd do but when we're in that situation but we bet that it would be a totally different ball game. 

    Tune-in as we as Ziggy and Russel talk about THE END OF THE WORLD.

  • TSATR S01E38: Of Rainy Days and Suspensions ft. Crystal Bariso

    Living in a country like the Philippines, we encounter a lot of typhoons year in, year out. During these times, suspensions from classes and work are likely to happen. Of course, we don't want anyone to be put in harms way but we just had to talk about this. What were the things that you guys looked forward to when classes were suspended back when you were still attending school? Did you guys look forward to them as well? How about when you started working? Did you go home as soon as they announce suspension? Hear out stories from the Skeptic, the Rusty, and the (sick) Girly!

About The Skeptic and The Rusty

From the publisher's feed

As millennials, we’ve had our fair share of weird experiences in our lifetime. More often than not, we encounter sh*tty situations and scenarios with dating, relationships, and even adulting. The show is about two dudes talking about anything under the sun but every now and then, we share something rather... Weird. Lol.
