I started listening to their radio program since 2006 but stopped for a couple of years and resumes early this year.
I used to listen to their program especially while driving. If not, I plug my headset and listen while at work thru cellphone or via live streaming. Every episode didn’t fail to make me laugh even listening alone.

Most of their discussions are turned into jokes that others might find offending but in the end, it still gives moral lessons.

Speaking of moral lessons, lately there is a segment in their program entitled “Kwento ng Mahiwagang Burnay” (Burnay is as Ilocano term for a clay jar).
One inspirational story is read daily either fictional or based on true stories. Still, throwing jokes in the middle of the stories is there.
From time to time, I will try to share some of these stories.
