The Political Constitution of 1899

February 14, 2021

The Political Constitution of 1899 is amazing fodder for the ‘what if’ game. Ultimately, the Philippines might not have stuck with the constitution they use today, so it’s worth thinking about what could have been.

What Is This Podcast Really?

July 3, 2020

[IMPORTANT NOTE: Schedule change. This podcast will now release episodes every other Friday. Next week will have an episode as a reset week. Then every other Friday will start. Ingat po.]

So the answer to this question really should have come by now Like how long has this podcast been running? But seriously, it's time to really stop and think what this show will be.

Things that Come in Threes

April 4, 2020

[So this has been a really taxing and scary time for me because of a close call with my family in the Philippines. For now nondescript, but I think you can imagine why I might be super worried for my older family members right now. Overall, be kind to yourself and others. We can make it through this. Ingat po.]

Back to Tagalog mythology, in a religion where deities can die, what comes next? Why, other anitos rise to take their place, of course! One trinity came to an end, and another rose to take its place.
