Big thanks to my therapy podcast for making 2025 a little more bearable. See you in 2026! @podkas_
Our final episode for the year! 24 episodes in and we’re not yet done. This was such a fun season to do and I can easily see this extend to at least 50 episodes. So, see you next year when we come back for the rest of @podkas_ #BagayBagay!
🚨 FINAL EP FOR 2025 🚨 We end this year with the ultimate Filipino staple! How can rice serve as a lens for understanding Filipino identity, resilience, and the delicate balance between tradition and survival? Find out more! Listen now: open.spotify.com/episode/16gkfv…
I think this is my favorite episode/topic so far (as a rice/food enthusiast 🤣) Also, TIL I learned that "gohan" is both rice and meal in Japanese, much like how Koreans also use 밥 (bap) 🤯

From its WW2 origins, its peak in the 80s and 90s and its threatened status today, the jeepney remains a Pinoy cultural icon. Join is as we discuss these and more in this new episode of PODKAS! open.spotify.com/episode/4RxS1w…
New episode! The banig is more than just a simple mat. It’s an object that literally grounds Filipino life. Listen now: open.spotify.com/episode/0uHEpt…
In this new ep. about the bulul, we ask: what happens when a living spiritual vessel is transformed into a collector's commodity? And what does this object reveal about indigenous resilience, colonialism, and the very concept of authenticity? Listen now: open.spotify.com/episode/58GABV…
More than just a pest, the rat is an unacknowledged actor in Philippine history, its story intertwined with our own from prehistoric times to the modern day. This new ep. uncovers this hidden narrative. Listen now: open.spotify.com/episode/1SgvMq…
This episode uncaps the surprising history of the tansan: the humble metal crown that sealed our childhood sodas and our uncles' beers. We trace its journey from a Japanese brand name to the prized currency of sidewalk games like Tatsing, and more. Listen: bit.ly/49btrcD
If you're like us, you grew up hearing that familiar ring of your favorite sorbetero's bell, so join us as we scoop into the history of the Philippines' favorite frozen dessert! open.spotify.com/episode/0P695H…
🚨 NEW EP OUT NOW 🚨 We unwrap the complex history of some of our most iconic kendi: Chocnut, Mikmik, White Rabbit, and Haw Flakes. How did our national sweet tooth transform these sweets into powerful symbols of nostalgia and childhood? Listen now! open.spotify.com/episode/2EvQaU…
In this episode, we unpack the immense economic and cultural power of the sari-sari store, the humble neighborhood shop that accounts for 70% of all manufactured goods sales in the Philippines. Listen now: open.spotify.com/episode/6Py96A…
New episode! We talk about the history and relevance of the Boxer Codex, quite literally the most vivid illustration of 16th century Philippines. Listen here: open.spotify.com/episode/1HQlbl…
From cheap newsprint to a powerful cultural force. 🇵🇭 In this new #BagayBagay episode, we chart the journey of Filipino komiks: from Kenkoy to the golden age of Ravelo & Coching, its role as resistance, and its influence on global comics. Listen now! open.spotify.com/episode/4DX6IC…
In this new episode, we uncover the dramatic life of Juan Luna's Spoliarium: a masterpiece that was sliced into three pieces, survived wars and botched restorations, and inspired everything from revolutionary novels to a famous rock song. Listen now! open.spotify.com/episode/3HtUsj…
Why do so many Filipinos have Spanish surnames? Hint: It’s not DNA. An 1849 decree imposed apellidos that systematically renamed millions. We unpack the history and its lasting impact in our new episode. Listen now: open.spotify.com/episode/1d1cCt…
For centuries, tarsilas in Muslim Mindanao have been more than family trees: they shaped power, honor, and identity. From resisting colonizers to grounding today’s Bangsamoro, they remain chains of memory & legitimacy. Listen up: open.spotify.com/episode/323kZM…
The Okir is a sacred and intricate artistic tradition of Muslim Mindanao, and in this episode, we chart its 1,400-year journey. Listen now: open.spotify.com/episode/6f1USM…
