Is This Thing On?
Daryll and Kesh
We're just two friends who wanted to share our stories--the good, the bad, and the crazy--as we navigate the world of adulthood ✨in this economy✨. We'll also be ranting about life, because, who doesn't? Balahuraan, tawanan, at kwentuhan na may [onting?] saysay. Huwag masyado mag expect.  Wait, before we even air anything, uh, is this thing on?
Redefining Relationships Az a Millennial Adult
This is a special, and rather serious episode with our friend, Josh, who joins us and shares the story of his experiences that helped shape and redefine his perception of relationships as a Millenial adult. In this episode, we talked about our own red flags, green flags, and ideals and expectations versus what we have now in relationships. We also talk about our personal paradigm shift from mononormativity (wow, big word) to now being open to other forms of relationships, such as polyamory. O diba, ang bibigat ng pinagusapan namin, di din namin kinaya. Ang dami na nga naming iniisip, nagawa pa talaga naming dagdagan! Chareng!  Deh, this was a very great episode, and we are happy to be able to share it with you guys!

Am I The A**hole?
Pssst! Hilig mo din ba makinig ng problema ng iba, magbasa ng screenshots, at mang judge ng ibang tao na di mo naman kilala? KAMI RIN!  Kaya yun ang ginawa namin for this episode!  Medyo nag :sparkles: mental health break:sparkles: muna kami (SELF-CARE GUIZE, ENEBE ) at dahil nag l-lag pa ang mga utak namin at nag rerecover from the recent happeningz in our lives (oo, ikkwento namin sa podcast, okay?? #SaTamangPanahon #aldubnation), chill lang muna tayo this episode at nagbasa nalang muna kami ng mga AITA posts sa Reddit.  Dahil minsan, okay din naman panandaliang makatakas sa sariling problema, and what better way to do that than read and talk about other people's problems, right? hehe (daming sinabi, wala lang talaga kami maisip na topic) DISCLAIMER:  Parehas kaming hindi sober dito, kaya sorry nalang po in advance sa kalat huehuehue ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We'd love to connect with you!

Mars, May Pera KPB?
A wise proverb once said, "It's not about the money, money, money. We don't need your money, money, money..."  (Jessie J, 2011) <--taray may pa-APA na mali chz But now that we're adults, we say, "gagi scam ka, Jessie J *cries in poverty*" chariz labyu mama Jessie In this episode, we are joined by our dear friend (and financial advisor, oha) Shiela, where she shares her story about how she overcame the struggles in life despite obstacles (financial or otherwise) and what she's learned so far when it comes to managing your finances. Dahil oo, matatanda na tayo and at some point, we really do need to learn how to manage life as an adult without getting broke every single time (wow, samin pa talaga nanggaling hahaha) In this episode, we also discuss how privilege, opportunities, hard work, and luck come into play with financial success/stability. CUZ IT'S NOT ALL HARD WORK, KAREN!! ACKNOWLEDGE YER PRIVILEGE!! Sabi nga nila, money is a terrible master but an excellent servant. Hindi umiikot ang mundo sa pera lamang, pero let's face it, we need to know how to handle this shit, mga bevz. HAHAHA We learned a lot from this episode, we hope you will too!

For this episode, we talk about our experiences with entering the life of independence as Millenial adults.Here we share our stories, realizations, and lessons we've learned the hard way about what independence means.  We have learned that, apparently, with great freedom comes greatER responsibilities.From the Boarding-House College Life (featuring the Pancit Canton Diet and other tipidity hacks that we've tried) to our First Job and First Time Magkasakit Nang Wala Si Mama moments-- andito lahat sa episode na ito.Dinaig ni Daryll si tito Boy sa mga tanong at linabas nya din ang kanyang HR skills sa pagbato ng mga situational questions. Of course, Kesh being the madaldal friend, was happy to answer all of them. Chareng!We hope you like this episode as much as we despise those monthly bills.

"What is grief, if not love persevering?" Pak, odzivuh, first line palang, ang lalim agad ng hugot. In this episode, sinamahan kami ng isa sa mga kumare naming si Mogs to finally sit down and process our bottled emotions (sabi kasi senyo, therapy session talaga namin to) and have the conversation that has been long overdue. Here we talked briefly (pero daming kwinento) about our experiences and memories--both the happy and sad-- about the last presidential elections, particularly our experiences as Kakampinks. From the announcement of the former VP Leni's candidacy for presidency, to People's Rallies, to the Voting Day and Election results, linabas na namin lahat ng naramdaman namin. In a nutshell: masakit pa din hahahhahuhuhuhu We also talk about the differences in how we processed our grief afterward, how we cope, and how we try to move forward and keep hoping, in spite of the setbacks and disappointments. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We'd love to connect with you!
