In this episode, Francis Lim and I dive into a total "what if" scenario: if we were nepo babies with bank accounts that never ended, what would our lives actually look like?

Since we’re both obsessed with the grit and soul of analog culture, we spend the hour humoring ourselves by curating the ultimate wishlist. We’re talking about hunting down the rarest first-press vinyl, hoarding pristine cassette tapes, and filling a retro-futuristic mansion with the kind of high-end CD players and mid-century gear we usually just drool over online.

It’s a fun, slightly delusional look at the creative pursuits and vintage treasures we’d chase if money were no object.

In this episode, we’ve teamed up with Konek—the go-to platform helping Filipino streamers, artists, and influencers turn fan engagement into real sustainable income.

We are joined by Konek’s Co-Founder, El Bonuan, to dive deep into why the "Revenge of the Analog" is more than just a trend. We explore the deep allure of physical objects in a digital-first world and how retro aesthetics are helping modern creators stand out in the algorithm. El also shares how Konek empowers Pinoy artists to monetize their passion and build genuine communities through authenticity.

We even touch on how analog hobbies serve as the ultimate digital detox for the overworked creator.

Whether you're a film photography enthusiast, a music collector, or a creator looking to level up your career, this conversation is for you.

In this episode, Allen, Chi, and Ian dive headfirst into the Upside Down one last time to unpack the emotional wreckage of the Stranger Things Season 5 finale.

We’re getting real about Eleven’s ultimate sacrifice (or was it?), whether Vecna’s endgame lived up to the hype, and if that two-hour cinematic farewell gave our favorite D&D party the closure they deserved.

From Dustin’s heartbreaking growth to Will finally finding his voice, we break down the highs, the lows, and the "bitchin" moments that left us sobbing.

Grab your walkie-talkies and some Eggos; it’s time to find out if the series finale was truly an Eleven out of ten or if we’re still stuck in the shadow of the Mind Flayer.

In this episode, where Kian and Geraldine turn their collective high blood pressure that you won't want to miss. This week, we’re diving headfirst into the "multiverse of madness" that is the Philippine political landscape, specifically asking the billion-peso question: where exactly did the flood control budget go, and why are we still using a "bahala na" system for drainage? We’re not stopping there, because we’re also dissecting the latest showbiz earthquake—the Derek Ramsay and Ellen Adarna breakup.

To cool down from our political and celebrity rants, we transition into our favorite 4 Senses Wednesday segment. We’re sharing the visual treats we’ve been watching (Eyes), the tracks that are currently on repeat in our headphones (Ears), the local eats that actually live up to the hype (Taste), and the recent "budol" purchases that we’re currently obsessed with (Touch). It’s a rollercoaster of national issues, celebrity drama, and lifestyle recommendations that proves that while the country might be sinking, our sense of humor is still afloat.

In this episode, we tackle the final piece of the Bayaniverse Trilogy: QUEZON, directed by Jerrold Tarog (and starring Jericho Rosales). After the temper of Luna and the vanity of Goyo, we confront the ultimate political master: Manuel L. Quezon.

Was he a hero or a snake?

We break down how Tarog frames Quezon's fight for Philippine independence—not on the battlefield, but in the Marble Hall of Politics—as a massive game of high-stakes Jack-en-poy against American imperialism (hello, Iain Glen as Leonard Wood) and domestic rivals (Mon Confiado's Aguinaldo is back!)

In collaboration with Novice, this episode was recorded ahead of the upcoming FRESH Takes on Photography event happening at SPOTLIGHT: The Exhibit in Kape Mismo.

We sat down with photographers Sean Jhayzeith Cortez and Austin Garcia to talk about how their cameras have become mirrors of their own lives—reflecting the beauty, honesty, and complexity of everyday existence. From capturing fleeting moments on the streets to documenting raw human emotion, they share how photography serves as both an act of storytelling and self-discovery.

Together, we explored what it means to stay true to one’s lens—advocating for transparency and authenticity in a world often filtered and curated. This conversation is a reminder that photography isn’t just about seeing, but about witnessing what’s real.

We’re back with the third leg of our Spotlight series in collaboration with Novice — this time shining in Antipolo. This episode also doubles as a teaser for Fresh Takes, Novice’s own creative talk that feels like TED Talk meets Graphika, but in an intimate setting built for raw, inspiring stories.

We sit down with Antipolo’s very own talents — Addi, Maddy, and Lloydie — homegrown illustrators and designers who share how their roots influence their craft. Together, we explore what it means to navigate the art scene as an Antipoleño: the challenges, the opportunities, and the urgent need for more creative hubs that can spark both cultural and economic growth.

Beyond the local perspective, this conversation also digs into the essentials of building a sustainable art career — from cultivating the right mindset, discipline, and balance, to staying authentic in a fast-paced, hyperconnected world.

In this episode, we sit down with three incredible collage artists—Arden Ortiz, Khada Liz, and Josh Dacumos—whose works are part of Spotlight: The Exhibit by Novice. Together, they open up about the vulnerability and rawness that fuel their creative process, and how collage becomes more than just cutouts—it becomes a way of piecing together fragments of emotion, memory, and identity.

This episode also serves as a teaser for Collage Day, happening on August 16, 2025 at Kape Mismo, Antipolo. Expect a day filled with art-making and inspiring stories, portfolio reviews, and playful community games—a gathering made for creatives ready to cut, paste, and connect.
