00:26.0
Obviously, in the previous episode, we discussed how the Dutertes are trying to appropriate the ETSA spirit
00:32.5
to feed into their own drama, Hanash Bardagulan with BBM.
00:37.5
But we're also seeing some other interesting tweak in the Duterte strategy.
00:41.7
It looks like Basta Duterte is almost regularly making headline-grabbing statements.
00:47.6
I'm not saying intentionally, but every week or so.
00:51.1
So yung latest banat niya, medyo banat-baste.
00:55.6
Parang kung banat-bay-baste siya, di ba?
00:57.9
Yung latest banat niya is parang bigay scam yung mga promise ni Marcos na 20 pesos kada kilo.
01:04.2
And wala na ako naman.
01:05.7
Bigay scam pa rin.
01:06.7
Three to six months.
01:07.9
I'll solve corruption.
01:09.5
Pinong sinabi niya sa Cebu.
01:12.2
So, do you think like Basta is now the plan B?
01:15.9
I mean, if Sara is not really the one to be their presidential bet,
01:19.1
then it looks like Basta, who seems to be more like his father,
01:22.5
has that kind of macho, suabe vibe.
01:25.6
Do you think that could be an option down the road for them?
01:28.8
Or plan B to Sara?
01:31.8
He's a much better looking Duterte than the dad.
01:37.0
That's a pretty low bar, but diga-diga.
01:39.9
Pero baka maraming pa siyang kakainin.
01:43.8
Una, as a mayor, hindi maganda yung kanyang performance.
01:47.7
Ang tawag siya sa kanya, absentee mayor.
01:49.9
So wala siya nung...
01:52.6
No, I'm just kidding.
01:53.7
Yung father niya, in fairness, hindi absent.
01:56.2
Absentee president.
01:57.4
Wala siya nung gano'ng klaseng history ng kanyang tatay.
02:02.5
Tsaka yung tatay niya talaga nagtatawag ng lamesa.
02:05.2
Yung rambling ng kanyang tatay is very authentic.
02:09.6
Pero lahat naman kasi pwede mo i-create.
02:13.2
Pwede ka mag-create ng legend, ng mystique around a person.
02:17.4
At may starting point siya, the Duterte brand.
02:20.5
Pwede niyang gamitin yan.
02:21.7
Pero I doubt kung pwede siya ng tit for tat.
02:27.4
Parang si Sarah, nung humarap sa Senate, nahirapan eh.
02:31.5
Parang nauna yung legend ni Sarah Duterte, kesa dun sa kanyang substance.
02:36.6
Nung nasubukan yung kanyang substance, it was found wanting.
02:40.8
Baka gano'n din ang mangyari kay Bastet.
02:43.6
Baka as senator, magandang, baka mas viable siya.
02:48.0
Dahil ang iboboto ng mga botante,
02:53.5
It's the name, diba?
02:54.9
Number one si Digong sa number of service we're seeing right now.
02:58.1
Over the past three months, ilang beses na numalabas siyang number one.
03:02.3
So Bastet will just be the fill-in, diba?
03:04.6
Like, okay, if not the other, then he's like the junior, right?
03:07.5
He's like a junior.
03:08.1
Mas may chance siya sa Senate.
03:10.3
And then let's see kung pwede siya sa 2028.
03:13.3
Kung halimbawa mag-unravel yung kanyang sister.
03:17.4
Pero ang tumataas talaga ngayon ay yung mga tulpo.
03:21.7
May isang survey ako na nakita na even in Mindanao,
03:26.1
mas mataas na si tulpo kaysa kay Sarah.
03:28.5
Pero may Mindanao background sila, diba?
03:30.2
Hindi pa siya nagpapakilala as a candidate.
03:33.7
Tapos yung dalawa niyang brothers ay nasa top five ng all surveys.
03:38.8
So yan yung makakalaban nila Bastet.
03:43.1
Yan yung makakalaban nila Sarah.
03:44.9
I mean, can you imagine the Senate of multiple tulpos?
03:49.4
I mean, my goodness.
03:51.0
And I think Bastet will be 40 by 2028, unlike Vico Soto.
03:54.9
Because I keep on seeing Vico Soto in the comment section.
03:56.9
No, he will not be age qualified.
03:59.3
I don't know bakit may age qualification.
04:00.8
Si Macron nga na yung presidente ng 38.
04:03.7
Anyway, whatever.
04:05.0
So yun ang hindi ko alam.
04:05.8
Hindi pa tested si Bastet.
04:07.9
Unlike, alam mo, si Sarah naging mayor.
04:12.0
Si Digong, abogado.
04:13.8
Naging mayor forever.
04:16.9
Oh, tick the boxes.
04:18.3
Si Bastet wala pa eh.
04:19.5
Unknown element pa siya eh.
04:21.0
Unknown element pa siya.
04:23.6
Pero ang halosigurado ko, pwede siya as senator.
04:27.2
Dahil ang iboboto is the name.
04:30.6
Kahit halimawa hindi tumakbo si Digong,
04:33.0
may tumakbong isang Duterte,
04:35.9
I'm almost sure he will win.
04:40.6
I mean, we just had a complete episode on how our politics lacks ideology and substance.
04:48.1
So, I'm not sure lack of substance will be a problem.
04:50.9
I mean, how should I put it?
04:53.7
Like, parang when you say, pero kulang sa like, yeah.
04:58.3
As if naman, diba?
04:59.8
Like, I don't know.
05:01.3
I mean, he could just tick-tock.
05:02.5
Yung iba naman kasi mga artista.
05:05.5
Yung iba ay mga politiko na nakapag-build up sa Congress.
05:09.9
The Joel Villanueva, the Wyn Gachalians, the Sonny Angara, etc.
05:15.1
The Jingo Yastrada.
05:17.4
And the others are mga artista.
05:20.7
Rappid, the Robin Padilla, the Bom Rebilla.
05:24.2
But what if the opposition also runs?
05:26.5
Let's say, Pia Wurtzbach, Jano Gibbs.
05:29.8
Do you think that could be also an option for opposition?
05:31.3
Well, si Willie Rebilla, balak pumasok.
05:34.0
Pero Willie is on the other side.
05:35.6
I'm talking about the opposition.
05:36.7
Like, do you think the opposition can do like Angel Locsin, Pia Wurtzbach, Jano Gibbs?
05:41.5
Si Angel Locsin sana pwede noong 2019.
05:45.0
That was their moment.
05:46.0
So, medyo matagal na siyang wala sa eksena.
05:50.7
Hindi ko sure kung pag nawala ka kasi ng ganyang katagal,
05:56.2
yung name recall mo nababawasan eh.
05:58.5
Pero noong 2016, 2019, popular pa si Angel Locsin.
06:03.3
I'm not sure now.
06:05.2
Dahil wala na siya mga pelikula, wala na siya mga guestings.
06:08.5
Parang nawala siya eh.
06:11.7
But Pia Wurtzbach, I doubt if he will join the opposition.
06:16.5
She'll do her own independent.
06:18.2
Angel Locsin, medyo nabahiran ng oposisyon.
06:25.0
Nabahiran ng progressive politics.
06:29.9
Don't you think Vice Ganda?
06:31.7
Siguradong malanalo yun.
06:34.1
I mean, imagine this.
06:37.2
Siguradong malanalo yun.
06:38.9
Pag decide siya pumasok sa politika, malanalo yun.
06:42.7
Grabe talagang Pilipinas.
06:44.2
I mean, can you imagine?
06:45.6
Multiple tool falls.
06:47.8
Multiple Duterte.
06:48.5
Kasi baka tumakbo both father and son.
06:51.1
Pero ba birthday ni Pepe Jokno yata kahapon, no?
06:56.5
Pero can you imagine, no?
07:00.3
A Pepe Jokno now?
07:04.3
Yeah, I mean, wow.
07:05.9
I mean, of course, we had a long conversation.
07:09.0
I was in high school.
07:10.4
First time ko siya narinig.
07:12.2
Kaya na-inspire ako.
07:13.4
How did we go from Pepe Jokno to...
07:15.7
Na-inspire ako pumasok sa politika.
07:19.0
He can make the crowd cry.
07:20.9
He can make the crowd angry.
07:23.1
He can make the crowd laugh.
07:25.1
And in between, no?
07:27.0
Hindi mababaw yung kanyang speech.
07:30.0
Pero imagine yun mo yung sway of emotions na yan.
07:33.3
Tapos hindi niya bibitawan yung core message niya.
07:38.4
But that guy was just genius level.
07:41.1
I mean, top both accounting and bar.
07:43.2
Self-taught pa siya sa law school.
07:45.7
I mean, I think no one has done what Pepe Jokno...
07:47.6
Pepe Jokno has done, right?
07:49.7
Or Ninoy Aquino telling jokes in between yung kanyang mga very eloquent speeches, no?
07:57.3
Uy, parang tayo yun, ha.
07:59.9
Ninoy palang style natin, ha.
08:02.0
Diba sabi ni Lelo, ang idol talaga ni Digong is si Ninoy.
08:07.0
Yung versatility.
08:08.8
You can joke and then you can go serious yung switching style.
08:13.1
Pero napakalayo yun yung rambling niya sa eloquence.
08:15.9
Medyo ano na, may show.
08:17.6
Let's not go into the...
08:19.5
Baka mga Joe Biden discussion.
08:22.3
No, let's not go there.
08:24.8
Okay, let's end this episode on a very important note.
08:28.5
Anong take mo dun sa glutathione?
08:34.7
Sabi niya, drip here, drip there.
08:36.7
Well, I'm not surprised with a husband whose main skill is singing one song during the entire election campaign.
08:43.5
At yung nagmarka sa kanya ay yung pagsusuklay ng kanyang bigot.
08:47.6
I won't be surprised.
08:49.2
What happens in his second office?
08:51.8
Ito ba yung bigot? Parang kapal ng bigot.
08:53.9
Ako hindi ko magawa.
08:54.8
May beard ako pero I cannot make it like...
08:56.8
Totoo yung bigot ba yan?
08:59.5
Extend shorts, extenders pa tapos.
09:01.7
So, hindi ako magugulat dun.
09:05.0
What happened in his office?
09:08.0
Mga may maraming drip-drip mangyari dyan sa next decade, ha.
09:11.4
Mukhang mag-amang Duterte, mag-magkapatid na Tulfo.
09:15.4
I mean, this is gonna get interesting.
09:17.6
Well, Arap was a movie star but he was a mayor.
09:21.0
I mean, he was more like Reagan.
09:22.9
He was a vice president.
09:25.9
He was more like Reagan.
09:26.8
Kaya nga sabi ko, there's a big difference between Reagan,
09:29.4
celebrity Hollywood,
09:30.8
who went through governor of California,
09:32.6
and then Trump, right?
09:34.3
There's a big difference.
09:35.5
Just because you're both celebrity or artista,
09:37.7
it doesn't mean you're the same.
09:39.1
Totally, hindi ba ballgame ito eh.
09:40.7
So, may magtidrip-drip na lang tayo.
09:42.7
Speaking of Senate,
09:43.7
kaya dumana ako sa airport,
09:44.7
may nakita ako parang yung magandang Senate building na bago.
09:47.6
Parang tapos na yata.
09:51.1
Masarap yata maging senador ngayon.
09:53.4
Tapos trip-trip doon.
09:54.3
Tapos skin care ka doon sa ano.
09:56.5
Tapos habang nasa BGC ka.
10:01.3
Sarap buhay talaga ng mga natin.
10:04.3
Tapos our Gini coefficient,
10:06.4
di naman nagbabago.
10:08.0
Konting bumaba, in fairness.
10:09.4
Sabi ng ATB, bumaba ng konti.
10:11.1
Because of the wage.
10:11.8
We're still at the level of the Congo,
10:13.2
Democratic Government of the Congo,
10:15.2
which is improving.
10:17.6
Ronald, wag naman tayo ma-depress.
10:22.5
Maganda yung Rwanda.
10:23.4
O Rwanda, magandang Rwanda.
10:25.0
Maganda yung Pilipinas.
10:26.6
Wag mo insultuhin ang Rwanda.
10:28.4
Tignan mo naman ang educational system, no?
10:31.7
French and English pa sila.
10:33.2
Talagang pambagsak, di ba?
10:37.4
Wag mo insultuhin ang Rwanda.
10:39.0
They're more ahead.
10:40.8
Maganda yung economy ngayon.
10:42.4
I mean, I'm not a fan of Kagame's authoritarian style,
10:44.8
but that guy has solid, solid governance.
10:48.8
kinakailangan magkaroon ng genocide dito?
10:51.0
Hindi, I'm just saying.
10:52.5
Ito ka na naman, ha?
10:53.8
I'm talking about like...
10:56.0
Ronald, you are a horrible person.
10:57.7
Nag-promote ka naman, di ba?
10:59.4
No, what I'm saying is,
11:00.7
ba't mga African countries,
11:01.8
napag-iwanan tayo, eh?
11:03.0
Like, I mean, you know,
11:04.3
we've been to Africa.
11:06.3
They're better than us.
11:07.6
Well, South Africa,
11:08.8
malayo talaga sa atin ever since.
11:10.4
Or Botswana, mayaman naman.
11:11.9
Pero, even like Morocco.
11:13.7
Ang ganda ng Morocco
11:14.8
compared sa Philippines.
11:16.0
Grabe yung improvement nila
11:17.3
over the years, di ba?
11:19.6
Kaya yung Senado natin,
11:20.9
drip-drip lang muna tayo dyan.
11:22.4
Magluta tayo na lang.
11:23.5
Well, in the next 2-3 years,
11:25.7
makukumpi tayo with Cambodia.
11:30.6
Well, at least we beat them in size.
11:32.5
Kasi malit silang bansa.
11:33.7
I mean, yun na lang.
11:34.5
Kasi Laos, talon na tayo.
11:36.0
Yung Laos, may high-speed railway, di ba?
11:38.3
Ang ganda rin kita.
11:39.4
High-speed railway nila siya.
11:42.1
Alright, bago tayo ma-depress
11:43.7
about our upcoming...
11:45.2
But, okay, Ronald,
11:46.5
in your lifetime,
11:47.3
is this the worst Senate we have seen?
11:49.9
And more importantly,
11:51.2
are we gonna see even a worse Senate
11:53.6
if Jogno, BAM, and Pangilinan
11:57.5
I mean, is this autumn-less iced tea?
12:00.2
I won't be surprised.
12:02.1
Let's put it that way.
12:03.7
I won't be surprised
12:04.7
if the Senate gets worse.
12:06.9
Like, just when you thought
12:11.2
Well, may mga babalik naman.
12:13.8
Babalik naman si Ping Lakson, di ba?
12:17.3
Si Bly Gordon, no?
12:18.5
May mga babalik naman, no?
12:21.6
Para, I'm not very reassured
12:23.4
about that choice.
12:25.0
kumpara naman doon sa mga movie stars natin.
12:28.2
May mga utak naman yan, di ba?
12:31.7
May mga utak naman yan.
12:33.0
Like, Ping was the guardian of our budget.
12:35.3
Lagi niyang in-exclusion.
12:36.3
In fairness, yes, yes.
12:38.8
Actually, I'm hoping
12:39.8
if hindi tatakpong presidente,
12:41.8
si Benji Magalang will run for Senate.
12:44.7
I think that could be a good option, no?
12:49.4
Parang, he could be the next Lakson, no?
12:52.2
Biko Soto sa 2028.
12:54.1
I give it na yan.
12:55.0
Pero, bata pa kasi sila for president.
12:58.5
kawawa naman tayo.
12:59.6
Pero, alis na si Cynthia Villar.
13:01.7
So, how are you gonna feel about it?
13:04.6
Bobo ba tayo yung mga ganyan?
13:06.8
Sigurado may papalit sa kanya.
13:08.9
Either yung doctor or yung asawa.
13:11.6
Pero, sigurado may tatakpong Villar.
13:14.7
Dahil, nalangasan nila.
13:16.4
You need to, Villar.
13:17.3
May dalawang Villar sa Senate.
13:18.8
So, hindi na nila...
13:20.9
Hindi na pwedeng isa lang, no?
13:25.9
Grabe yung mga memes, di ba?
13:28.6
Wala ko may bakanteng landaw doon.
13:31.3
Grabe yung mga memes na yan.
13:32.9
Mami, gusto na yung mga quotable codes niya.
13:36.4
Bakit hindi nga napag-iwan tayo ng Vietnam?
13:40.3
Okay, okay, okay.
13:41.6
I think, as depressing as the topic is,
13:44.0
we were able to put some smile over it.
13:48.7
Welcome back to me, but not to our president,
13:51.3
which we'll discuss in the ultimate episode,
13:57.6
Pag-usapan natin yan.
