KMJS livestream May 17, 2026 Episode - Replay | Kapuso Mo, Jessica Soho

impeachment in the Congress, chaos in the Senate, Philippines, what else?In his almost three decades in the showbiz, he's a different kind of ding -dong dante.He's a master cutter.And the fishmongers in Sultan Kudarat, they're fed up with the loss of the vinegar of Baliena, or Ambergris, if you want to call it that, which is possibly of importance to Nunez.I am your host Jessica Soho, and here are the stories that will be told to you by Ikasal Leite.He can light a firefly.

Look at his nose.His nose is so bright, it lights up right away.

Pa, I'll call you Superpower.This is Superpower.

In Zamboanga del Sur, some beauty pageant contestants suddenly had a stroke and died.

My head suddenly started to hurt and I felt a lot of pain in my chest.I was getting cold.It felt like there was a bump on my neck.

They were diagnosed with a stroke.A man came up to me and pulled my shoulder.

Maybe that's what they call a stroke.

don't dance at.30.He's been in showbiz for almost 30 years.He has a new role as a master cutter.How does it feel to be in the industry for almost 30 years?

I'm still very passionate about what I do.

My cousin posted about me.The same day, Dindong commented on my post.

I could already assert it.

In Congress, a change of leader in the Senate, and chaos.

It suddenly suspended.It looks like something big is going to happen today.

There are NBI and SIDG operatives who will come here to arrest me.

You said before that you want to accompany former President Duterte to The Hague.Why hasn't he come yet, that he's being arrested to be brought there?

If, for example, I get arrested there, It's not a guarantee that we're just one shield.So it defeats my purpose of going there.there.

foreign foreign They say this is not a problem in a house in Albuera, Leyte.Because they have an emergency light here to help.They just stick the light bulb in the kid's nostrils.foreign foreign The first person who saw KaiKai's super power was his aunt Junvina.

We decided to buy an emergency light bulb because it usually turns brown here in our area.

foreign foreign foreign According to Kaikai's mother, Geneva, her son's imagination is really weird sometimes.

She sees something, maybe she's curious, she suddenly puts it here, or here.Kaikai, what are you doing?

She's afraid that her son will make her light a candle.

But what is the source of energy that KaiKai has?

to make it clear, we invited a physicist and engineer Normally a human body is a kind of conducting material.transfer ng mga molecules papuntang circuits, ibig sabihin, iilaw.Normally, ang bata, because of thin skin, yung resistance maliit din.Ibig sabihin, aakyat yung conductivity.Hindi napagana yung kuhan ng ninong at saka yung tatay niya kasi ang skin niya is makapal tapos dry angis dry.

Our temperature is high.They're fighting.So now, we're going to let Kaikai's family try the bulb.

And this time, it suddenly turned on.

We can see that the bulb turned on because of the heat.the liquid in the body.

When the two terminals are connected, it lights up.

To those who say that you borrowed my child, just buy an emergency light.

The experts are enlightened.We can say that everything is enlightened.Next, the leader of the Senate, Abgulo.

Suddenly, it suspended.It looks like something big is going to happen today.

There are NBI and SIDG operatives who are coming here to arrest me.

You said before that you want to accompany former President Duterte to Dahag.Why hasn't he come yet and you're arresting him to bring him there?

What if I get arrested there?It's not a guarantee that we're just one shield.So it defeats my purpose of going there.

Why don't you just submit to the law?What else do you plan to do?

Next, in a cave in Sorsogon, there are people who are blind and deaf.

The first thing that came to my mind was,there was a person who was cursing.For almost an hour, but no one responded.What is this?

Her color is like a shokoy.

A beauty pageant in Tabina, Zamboanga del Sur, went haywire.She died in the middle of the petition.that is being held in Tabina, Zamboanga del Sur, Mindanao in the coming Q &A.But when it comes to this Q &A, his handlers have already fired him.Because his behavior suddenly went bad.He is also worried about the pain of his chance.

Before she left the stage, she completely lost consciousness.And she wasn't alone.Because that night, three other candidates fainted.They also died in the middle of the same beauty pageant.The reason why they fell is a mystery.Candidate number one.

Rian, who is in good condition now.Suddenly, my head hurts.I feel a lot of pain in my stomach and I'm really dizzy.On the other side of the abbey, Rian is in the top 5.We're excited because it's Q &A.The point of the pageant is the Q &A, right?

So you can really get the crown.but because her feelings are still not improving.My handler told me that we're going to the RHO.I said, no, because I can still do it.

In the wake of conflicts and controversies our country faces today, how is winning the Binibinib Colangay crown still relevant?

By using the platform wisely, she can help address issues, uplift others, and remind everyone that even in conflict issues, even in conflict times, Always possible.Thank you.

Candidate number three.Suddenly, she felt dizzy during the evening gown round.

I felt dizzy and it was painful.I was freezing.I helped her by massaging her body.

Candidate No. 5, Jasmine, had a hard time breathing and her body was numb.

I had a stomachache.It felt like something was stuck in my neck.Then, my hands and feet suddenly started to shake.I was just crying because of the pain.

That's why they were not able to finish the coronation.

They were rushed to the health center.I was a bit scared because I heard something like that.Maybe that's what they're saying, that it's a curse.

A curse, or hilo, is called by the people in Panlalason.It's not used as food, but as a means of prayer.The prayer was made by a black man, or as they call him, Mang Hiluay.I always watch Mang Hiluay.

I've experienced it in Quambanao.You just have to watch it and it will have an effect.

This is used in Visayas and in Mindanao.It's a story for most of our children because that's what they want.They want their power to be stronger.

foreign foreign foreign foreign

But the candidate number six, Ayesha, is saying that she's in a meeting.Mang hilo ay nun mismong coronation night.Matapos ang pag -uusap nilang yun, umalis na ang lalaki.Si Ayesha nagawapan rumang pa.A few moments later, Ayesha was already weak.The next thing she saw was being dragged out of the venue.

When I woke up, I was shocked.I was like, why?I'm already here, in the center.I already have oxygen here.What happened to me?That's when it really hit me that it's really true.

The residents were also asking each other who the real culprit was.I saw their faces, their droppings.until someone made a mistake.But this accusation did not please the barangay.They said that this should not be made a joke.

Our team tried to interview the person who posted the comment, but he refused to comment.

Meanwhile, according to the doctor who examined the victims, the possible reason why the candidates' feelings went bad is not a guess, but...

Anxiety is communicable, right?When you're nervous, and you tell your neighbors that you're nervous, they might get anxious.

question and answer portion of.

Make some noise for your queen!Congratulations on my number one!

It's not just anyone, it's Rian!I encountered one of the judges.She said, wow, congrats!Because I'm the winner.Rian was crowned the next day.Even though I wasn't on stage, I was really happy because you didn't think that your answer would be the one to win.

Miss Universe Philippines 2025, Ateeza Manalo.I fell a while ago on stage.If you fall or get hurt, positive change is always possible.Thank you.You must come back stronger.In Congress, there is a vote for impeachment.

The NBI and CIDG operatives are coming here to arrest me.

It suddenly suspended.It looks like something big is going to happen today.

I also rushed to the exit.There are a lot of news about developments.We need to be careful because we don't know what will happen from here on.

There are news that Senator De La Rosa might be arrested.We're going to arrest somebody.We are going to arrest somebody.

How can we do the operation with you?Please clear the area.

Senator Padilla.

We tried to get a statement from Senator Padilla's spokesman, Senator Kiko Pangilinan, but he refused.We are still outside the Executive Lounge here in the Senate, where the Senators are being sanctioned and suspended.The media suddenly rushed here outside.There are a lot of news flying around now developments.

Senator Robbins and Senator Pangilinan had a commotion, but it was quickly settled.

The Senate is also having a meeting here outside, just like what is happening in our society today.Even though there are different groups or factions, they are exchanging hot words.

the country.

November 2025, Senator Ronald Bato de la Rosa disappeared like a ghost after the news broke that he would be arrested by the ICC or the International Criminal Court because of the case of Crimes Against Humanity.Six months later, this Monday, May 11, everyone was shocked when he suddenly disappeared.Why are you here, sir?If I don't go in, you're looking for me.He complained to the NBI agents that he was bullied until he fell down the stairs.Because Senator De la Rosa was president, her allies gained more power.

The minority became the majority.They now have the Senate.And the new Senate President is Senator Alan Peter Cayetano.But since the session,

Senator Dela Rosa, thank you very much for this interview.

Thank you very much, Jessica, for the opportunity You've been in the Senate for three days?Yes.

How are you?

I'm okay.I'm happy because almost every day, there are many supporters who come up and express their support.So we are alive with blood.

Can you tell us, from the start, when you came back to the Senate after six months, that you were absent?

My colleagues called me and told me that I needed to be here in the Senate for a vote.I've been planning for a long time to resurface because aside from the plan of change of leadership, I know that there will be an impeachment trial.Those are our jobs.Third, I am ashamed of what the judges said to us, that Gites received his salary from the government, he is not working.We are working, our office is having a function, We're just absent, but my monitoring is just distant.Distant monitoring.

But of all days, why that day?Because they said there was a vote?

Yes, there was a vote.

And what was the vote about?

Change of leadership of the Senate.So if I don't come, we won't get the leadership because I'm the 13th vote.

So it's like there's a coup.There's a coup by the leadership of the Senate.Yes.Can you tell us who called you?

Senator Alan Quintano.Our majority leader.

How did you get here?Because I heard you drove a different car.

I got in a van.

Which van?

I don't know what kind of van it was.But Senator Alan told me to get in the van.

Do you know that there are people waiting for you?

I know that someone is waiting for me but I won't go in.

Then, tell me about how you got in.

When I got in, there were two women and two men sitting next to the door.I thought they were senator's staff or senator's drivers.When I passed by, they stood up and stopped me.Sir, sir, sir, we are NBI.He grabbed my arm and I ran.I ran until I reached the session hall.

Ah, that's what you said, you were wrestling.Yes, that's what I said.Because you were running.Yes, I was running.Because what the NBI said, Director Matibag, that's why you were injured.You fell.

I fell.Not because you were wrestling.

No, I fell while running.You fell.Why did you fall?Overspeeding.I did a run for your life.Run!

Run as fast as you can so that you can make it to the session hall.

But there are a lot of people who are laughing.They are laughing because of your bravery.

It's okay.It's their happiness.Let's give them their happiness.

What happened to your hand?Can I see it?

These are the wounds.It's just minor.It's not a fracture?No, it's just a scratch.

And when you got to the session hall, what happened?

An NBI representative came to see me.and told me they have a warrant of arrest for Senator De la Rosa.I said coordinate with OSA.

I didn't realize that he was coming.Is this connected to the impeachment of Vice President Sara Duterte?

We can't say it's connected.We haven't talked to Alan that you voted for the impeachment of Bibi Sara.What he said is, When will you come here so we can steal the majority?It's normal in the Senate.There is no minority that wants to remain a minority forever.

But I can't avoid the speculation that, ah, that's why he's there, so that until Sara Duterte votes in her impeachment, she can also vote.What can you say to that?

That's my duty, to vote.So they cannot question me for being here and to sit as a senator judge.because it is my duty as a senator.I was with the fowls of the air and the beasts of the field.I was all over the Philippines but I never went out from the Philippine jurisdiction because I am a Filipino.

In your state of mind now, I watched your interviews earlier, sometimes you cry, you sing, how would you consider this period of your life?

Very abnormal.

What is in your mind now that you are in this position, that you are almost living here, you can't go out because you will get caught, they might bring you to Hague, to San Francisco.accompanied by former President Duterte.

I leave it up to God.Whatever God desires, I will follow.God's plan is perfect.I will follow what I have been taught according to the wisdom of the Lord.I will not wait for them to bring me to Hague.

Some people say, he said before that he wanted to go with them.Why didn't he go now that he was arrested to be brought there?

My position changed because when President Digong was already there and he was being visited by the Davao people, he couldn't just visit there.Only the immediate family could see him.And if, for example, I was imprisoned there, I don't have a guarantee that I can visit him just once.There's no guarantee.So it defeats my purpose of going there if that's what's going to happen.We won't be together.

If you will be jailed in the Hague, in the ICC facilities, at least you should be together.Isn't that what you want?You said that before.

It depends if we are together in the cell.If we are together, but if not, it's far.Even if we are not together, there will be no communication between us.It depends on the purpose.

I will just qualify.So you are willing to be jailed as long as your cell is close to the Hague.

From the very beginning, my stance is that I do not recognize the jurisdiction of ICC in our country because we are no longer a member.Our government is in no obligation to effect the warrant of arrest issued by ICC.So if you want, let me go.Put me on the cross here in our country, not in the country of the Banyagas.

So it's okay for you to be imprisoned as long as it's here in the Philippines?As long as it's here in the Philippines.You don't want to go to Daheg?

I don't.Dela Rosa served as the chief of police of Davao City from 2012 to 2013 while former President Rodrigo Duterte was the mayor at the time.Duterte and Dela Rosa became senators.Duterte and Dela Rosa became senators.Duterte and Dela Rosa became senators.Duterte and Dela Rosa became senators.

as an important role or indirect co -perpetrator in the bloody war on drugs of the Duterte administration.From the time Senator Bato took office in the Senate on Monday to Wednesday, he was given protective custody.I also interviewed Attorney Israelito Bobet Turion, the lawyer of Senator Bato.What is the main petition?I don'tSenator Bato, former Senator Antonio Trillanes, this is considered an obstruction of justice.

In our legal system, a senator cannot be arrested while in session if the crime is six years and below the penalty.So all the senators who were charged, of protectionan ng Senado kahit alam nila na mali.

Hindi pwede ito ihambing dun sa kaso ng mga nakaraan ng dalawang senador, si Sen. Delima at Sen. Trillanes, kasi may warrant sila from a local court.

Klarong -klaro yun.Bakit kung sino -sino yung mahabal?Si former Sen. Trillanes.Ikaw ba ay dineploy?

Go ahead, make my day, Mr. Trillanes.

The International Criminal Court, when it was arranged by the Community of Nations, the Philippines sent a representative there.So we were one of the architects and founders.This is an international court and not a foreign court.The ICC retained the jurisdiction for the crimes that happened when we were still a state party.The scope of the investigation was when that we are still members.In other words, Bato de la Rosa of the ICC can really be dismissed.

How is the Senate?It's so chaotic.

We're in a mess.We can't be in a mess.Whether the mess is coming internally or externally, the change is very political and very emotional.All of us have been replaced because of the flood control, because of the impeachment.And we'll prove them all wrong.

What I'm waiting for now is, will Senator De La Rosa be arrested?

They'll show us the Philippine judge's arrest warrant.give Bato a due process, meaning he can question the warrant of arrest, etc., we will follow the law.But if you say it's a foreign warrant of arrest, that we already left there, the ICC is violating their own rules, and then any Filipino here has no remedy.

But the former president already flew to the Hague.

That's why I'm separating that, because now, what else can we do?Just wait for the Supreme Court at the right time.One rule of the ICC, Does it matter that the ICC already has ruled that they have jurisdiction over Duterte?It matters more because They violated their own treaty.So, what will happen to us?

Earlier, I noticed in the session hall, we felt and saw the tension between the senators.

We just need a balancing act.But this is a question.Since the president and vice president are fighting, the congress and vice president are fighting, do the senators want to be peacemakers or do you want to be one of the same?Let's be the salt and light.I have to admit it's difficult.I mean, the first day of Monday is not the day I expected.

The session ended at 6 p .m.and the ruling of the Supreme Court came out that they will not give the TRO or temporary restraining order to Senator Bato against his ICC arrest warrant.

We're still outside the Executive Lounge here in the Senate, where the Senators are being held.

At 7 p .m., the Acting Sergeant at Arms, or Chief of Security of the Senate, General Mau Aplasca, will appear in front of the media.

We are going to arrest somebody.

At that time, some members of the media and our team were still inside the Senate.

Outside, the police and rallyists barricaded themselves.

On 7 -18, Senator Bato and Senator Robin Padilla were seen entering the elevator.Until the articles of impeachment against Vice President Sara Duterte from the Congress arrived in the Senate.The Senate was even more alarmed when an armed group entered.Members of the MSEG or the Marine Security and Escort Group.Next, they heard the sound of a drill or shooting from the old door on the ground floor of the building.When they came from the building of the General Assembly,

that is connected to the Senate.Because it is not clear where the sound came from, the people in the Senate continued to suspect that someone is trying to break in.What road is this, sir?

Sorry.

No, there's no passenger vehicle here.Later on, on the second floor of the Senate, this is what our team witnessed that was left there.

We are allegedly under attack.My number one priority.to secure the senators.

I will not arrest Senator Bato, just to be clear.

In this posted video, the senators said that they are safe, but they did not mention that Senator Bato is not with them.NBI Director Melvin Matibag said that the gunshots were from their guns.

We were not deployed there and there was no order to arrest Senator Bato.

There was no instruction from anyone to arrest Senator Bato.

In the investigation conducted by PNP -SOCO, or Scene of the Crime Operatives, 32 bullets were found.While the investigation was being conducted, Senator Bato was seen holding hands with the police.His lawyer, Attorney Torreon of Litrato, also posted evidence that Senator Dela Rosa is in the Senate.

They are removing the lock because the access from the Senate going to GSIS will be blocked by the Senate.

That's why the NBI members are in the GSIS on Monday afternoon and night, because the GSIS asked for the help of the NBI for the security of their house.We were told by the Sergeant -at -Arms of the Senate, General Aplasca, that he was the one who fired the warning shot.Around 2 p .m.this Thursday, Senator Dela Rosa and Senator Robin Padilla were allowed to leave the Senate.

The word escaped.There's no water, so he's free to go.

Because of this, Senator Padilla of the NBI is also considered a person of interest.

If the Executive is enforcing the warrant because Bato Dela Rosa is wanted and considered as an international fugitive if he doesn't surrender, that is what we call an obstruction of justice.

All of this is happening out of the blue.Nothing is happening politically out of nothing.Let's face the fact that everything that is happening now is directed towards him, no one else but the 2028 elections.

6 ,000 to 30 ,000 were killed in the war against drugs by the Duterte administration.One of the victims of the bloody war against drugs by Duterte was Danilo, construction worker, mister of Purisima.

He was the breadwinner.He was the one who brought us to life.My only job was as a flag bearer.

Last night, on August 3, 2017, they were shocked when armed men came to their house in Bacaloocan.

When they entered our house, I felt pity for them.We saw that they had already lifted the armalight so that they could fire.Then, they fired.It's really painful for me to see them being killed like that.They shouldn't be killed just because they're addicted or on drugs.The government has a process to rehabilitate them.

What can you say to those who say that we are the ones who lost our children, our fathers, we are the ones who are fighting.This is Bato, he is running.

They told us to change our position.That's a basic human instinct.If your life and liberty is at stake.

What can you say to those who died?

I feel sorry for all those who died.Based on records, look at how many police officers were investigated, charged, and even convicted.Because in the case of Ian De Los Santos, the police were convicted.We are the ones who filed that case.

President Duterte has heard several times that he will order all the law enforcement agencies to kill the drug users.

It's just hyperbole.

Because you're the chief PNP, shouldn't you be accountable?

Give me an evidence that President Duterte said, let's kill all of them.Nothing.Because I'm a policeman.I know how to do my job properly.With so many targets, some of them fought.We really expected someone to die.

What you're saying now, there are actual dead bodies.Not only 6 ,000, but it could reach 30 ,000.

Those who are bloating the numbers are the people who are against Duterte.How many cases did they present in the ICC?They said 30 ,000.How many did they present there?Was it 36 ,000 or 40 ,000 plus?

Even if you're saying that you didn't follow the President's order back then, there are dead bodies as evidence.

There are dead bodies, but don't say that you're the only one who did it.that all of these are extrajudicial killings.Investigate each case one by one.Find out the truth.

the victim of EJK in the ICC.In November 2025, the ICC issued an arrest warrant for Senator Bato.

Judges assessed the material submitted by the prosecution and found reasonable grounds to believe that Mr. de la Rosa is allegedly criminally responsible as an indirect co -perpetrator for the crime against humanity of murder.

Senator Bato de la Rosa is now included in the wanted persons list of the ICC.

We will definitely submit to the request of the ICC.Senator Bato is a sitting senator, right?But if you attempt to leave the Philippines, wait, this is a different story.

What about those who say, Bato became the PNP chief, the chief implementer of the law when he was the chief PNP.

Then he became a senator, a legislator, a lawmaker.

So you're supposed to be a man of law.That's the expectation from you.Why don't you just submit to the law?now that the ICC wants you to account for the thousands of extrajudicial killings.

My actions are in accordance to the law.

What else do you plan to do?

Exhaust all available legal remedies.

My friend, while taking a bath in Liang Cave in Sorsogon, not only because the water is fresh, but also because it is not polluted,creature that appeared in the cave.When we walk through rivers, forests, or caves, we are always reminded to be careful.Older people believe that nature has inhabitants that are not like us.Just like what was once filmed in this cave in the town of Gubat Sorsogon, the Liang Cave.Inside this cave, you will see a beast that is still breathing but is almost drowning in fear.

foreign foreign We waited for the people inside the cave to leave.When the people left, we thought of going inside.foreign foreignI wanted to take a video and a picture with him.

But when Sir General, Sirus, intervened, he suddenly became cold.Not because of the water, but because of fear.

When I turned to the camera, I saw that his eyes were glowing.He was just staring at us.He was just staring at us.He was just staring at us.

He was just staring at us.He was just staring at us.He was just staring at us.He was just staring at us.He was just staring at us.He was just staring at us.

He was just staring at us.He was just staring at us.He was just staring at us.He was just staring at us.He was just staring at us.He was just staring at us.

He was just staring at us.He was just staring at us.He was just staring at us.He was just staring at us.He was just staring at us.

He was just staring at us.He was just staring at us.He was just staring at us.He was just staring at us.He was just staring at us.He was just staring at us.

He was just staring at us.He was just staring at us.He was just staring at us.He was just staring at us.He was just staring at us.He was just staring at us.

When we got home, I couldn't sleep because I was so scared.The whole night, my brother and I were thinking about what was in the video.

Since the opening of the Liang Cave to the public in 2016, Lourdes has been the one in charge of taking care of this place.We are the ones who clean and take care of it every day.The water that flows through the cave is so clear, yet mysterious.

From August to December, it rains, right?That's a small amount of water.He believes that behind him is the guardian of the cave.In the morning, when we were cleaning, I suddenly looked around and saw something.It was on its back.It was heading towards the cave.

I looked at it carefully, but it was gone.I said, maybe there's really a guardian here.We asked the people here, why they called it Liyang.I believe that you are changing the elements.

But there's no need to be afraid of the guards because there's a good reason for this.

No one will be disgraced.Maybe he's watching us.

Meanwhile, Ergie and Cyrus returned to the cave where they recorded the shocking video.

We saw the element at the end of the cave.

In the hope of finding out what they saw, our team tried to get inside until the end of the cave.The underwater camera recorded that they did not see anything.

The fish there are commonly small, so they are not big fish.Most likely, they are not fish.

It's not edited because the pixels are consistent and the eyes are blending in the video.What we saw in the video is possible from the reflective surfaces inside the cave.Because the water is clear, they used external lights.Mostly, it came from the water.

We are still open to any possibility of what the camera really captured.I just believe that there is another element in the cave.

We Filipinos are used to that kind of belief that we attribute the things that cannot be explained to the supernatural.If we are not answered by what we were taught in school, we just go there to the beliefs because it can give us a sense of comfort.

Dekada na sa showbiz, si Ding Dong Dantes na ngayon sa ibang papel sa action thriller series na Master Cutter.He also doesn't drink vitamins.The top answer is his flavor.

He asked for a placemat from the restaurant.He said he'll put it in his dining room.He's excited, he's happy.There was one time when he didn't want to be covered.He couldn't breathe.

I want to meet Ding Dong in person.

Because of this, Tessie's granddaughter posted online about her grandmother's dream.Looking for a way to make her even more happy by trying to find a way for her to meet Ding Dong.That call was like a doorbell that Ding Dong heard.

For your grandma, let's make it happen.

Will Tessie's ultimate fangirl dream come true?In this house in Batangas, Lola Tessy lives with her caregiver.Lola became a fan of watching TV.Until one day, someone caught her attention.The host of her favorite game show, Family Feud, Ding Dong Dantes.

The same day, Ding Dong commented on the post.We replied right away.He's so excited.He's so happy.

That's why what will happen is that they will cross the road of Dong.But before that, I visited Dindong Sabaklaran in the set of his newest series, The Master Cutter.Dindong's life is given to the character of Atoy, an early riser and a bounty hunter at night.Criminals in exchange for money.

This is their dressing room.Hello, sorry for the inconvenience.Hi, Ma 'am Rio.How are you?I'm sorry for the inconvenience.No worries.

Thank you for visiting.

Hi, thank you.Thank you, ma 'am.Thank you.

Hello.Hello.Hi, ma 'am.How are you?Good to see you.Good to see you, ma 'am.

Sit properly.

Thank you.I'm Jessie.

I know you.Hello.Hello.Hello.

This year is also special.

DINGDONG DANTES We've been together for almost 30 years.It's not like that.There's a new insight, a new experience.There's always a new excitement.

This is an interesting trivia for you.Just tell me.Ding Dong has been around for almost 30 years.Almost three decades.But your manager said that you don't remember when exactly you started.

Yes, I do.I always say that I started when I was 18.I always think that I was 18.But when I asked my friends, even before that, because officially, the TGIS was in 1997.Maybe it was even earlier.

So how young were you then?

I was 17.It was only then that I had a double life because I was a working student then.At an A .O., right?Yeah, I was in high school and then at the same time, I entered as an actor.

How did you get into showbiz?

So, commercial first.Dingga.

How old are you, Dingga?Seven years old.

Then my cousin from Iloilo, Arthur Sorinap.He joined an abstract dance group.He invited me to join.I was afraid that I might get bullied.When you're famous, you get bullied.I was hurt.

I said, why is that?So I joined.I said, I'll try.

After that, that's when the audition for TGIS started.I saw a guy there, he looked like he was taking a bath in milk.But it was just like that.

So what else was he doing?He was literally taking a bath.literally.How does it feel that you're still working with him, almost three decades on, later on?

Honestly, you don't feel the time pass by.When you're together, you don't see the speed.To be honest, I don't realize his magnitude.We're friends.That's how we started.We don't have a director or an artiste.

We're all just working together here.I just realized that in one of those events.When Netflix announced the line -up for 2026, along with MasterCopper, Dong was the only one who went.And then we stepped into the room, tapos nakita ko lahat, all heads turned.Sikat ko ah.

Ang weirdere ka.

Ang weirdere ka.Hindi niyo alam na sikat talaga siya?

Hindi mo nainisip.Kasi kung isipin mo na ako, malaki na matataranta ka eh.

Anong sikreto ni Ding Dong Dantes?

Forever a student of the craft.Magpakabait ka ah.

Anong mga realizations mo about this industry that you're in?the craft that you were given.

Peculiar and very, very unique situation.Kasi diba ngayon ang era ng digitalization, globalization.So suddenly everything is available online.So in the advent of all these, there are also challenges.But there are also many opportunities.Kagaya nga nitong Master Cutter.

Hindi lang siya papalabas sa TV kung hindi sa Southeast Asia.

Congratulations.You're number one on Netflix in the Philippines.

Thank you.Thank you.Thank you.Congrats.

Good job.

Thank you.And it's the collective effort of all of us.That's why everyone is very excited.I don't think I need it.Maybe tomorrow when I go home, I'll remember it.

What do you think of your craft?You know, you get the idea.a wide range of roles.You can portray anyone.An actor lives a double life, to be honest.

When you're at work, you put yourself in the character's shoes.So sometimes, you shouldn't take that home.

Is it acceptable for an actor to have a double life?

Yes, it's not easy.You have to put yourself into it and professionally exit that character also.

It's hard.

There's a debriefing before you go home.It's good that the set has a good vibe.the performance of the actors here is really light.No hostile movements detected.From Mr. Burger, the home of Europe.Canto Burger, sir.

Do you want some mochi?How complicated is the character you're playing?

It's energy, right?You can feel it.It's like an example that I imagine.For example, as a journalist, there's also a very disturbing coverage.It's like if I'm just watching TV, it feels like I'll be gone for a long time.What more if I'm watching TV?

I give you one thing that no other can.my life.

You've been married 11 years.What's the secret?Especially, you're both high profile.

I think it's a big thing that we met at a time when we were almost done with what we needed to do as single people.But most of all, it's a big thing that from the start, we wanted the same thing.And that is to just simply build a family.Everything revolves around there.

But you can't lose that.There's this blind item that's been going around, the showbiz couple, you know, perfect picture, etc.People fill in the blanks, right?They're guessing who it is.You can't avoid that.What can you say about that?

Well, every year, I get those questions.First, I'm used to it.Second, we're confident that it's not us.As long as we're clean.

I'm sorry I asked you that.It's okay.

It's okay.It's okay.

We've known each other for a long time.

Yes, of course.Ma 'am, I just want to say that there are milestones in our lives.

Ding Dong and Marian Nantes! foreign foreign Why did you come up with that?

First of all, it wasn't just my idea.It was a collective effort of a group of actors.It started during the pandemic, when we had a lot of uncertainties.We had a lot of questions about the industry, ourselves, our health, a lot of fears.But above all, during those conversations, the hopes rose.It's nice to feel that you're a part of a community.

Again, thank you.They don't have to be thinking about these things.

How did you meet?

Someone sent me a screenshot.I said, can we bring him here so he can watch it live.Our team contacted him.Our team flew there.The team went there.

That's why Ding Dong invited Lola Tessy to the taping of Family Feud.

Please know that anytime you want to watch, feel free to come.Welcome, welcome, welcome.In the 1 ,000 episodes that we do in Family Feud, we thought, this is really the result of the happiness we give to all the viewers every day.

I see a good -looking man in front of me with a happy and perfect marriage with Marianne and you have two beautiful kids.Everything seems perfect to you.My question to you is downright very personal.Does Ding Dong Dantes have a legacy?You know Ricky Lee, our national artist, called Bubog.Does he have a legacy?

First, I always consider myself a work in progress.Thank you for your opinion, but I'm trying to be me.Trying to be the best version of myself always as a father, as a husband.As a son, and of course, as a member of this industry, we can influence through the type of material that we present and that we bring to life.

How?

foreign foreign foreign I saw a white thing that looked like a bomb.

It was shining like oil.However, there were guards.

They were all crazy.They were all crazy.Despite this, Gabriel still tried his best to approach it.Here, he said, he smelled something different.Then, I smelled a perfume that smelled like poison.foreign

He weighs around 200 kilos, not just that.

I saw it in the news.I thought he was positive.

He thought this was the amazing vinegar of the whale, or as they call it, ambergris.

I thought it was a million -million.

Problem is, how will Gabriel bring it home?

I had a lot of fish.A lot of fish.

A lot of fish.Because Gabriel can't handle his Ambergris, he left it behind.But because of the birds flying around, they got lost.They got lost here.

Hey!

Hey!Hey! to the point where they were able to pull it off and bring it to Pampang.

We helped each other so that it could be carried.

They were able to carry the million -million.

This is the first time I've seen this.

At first, I didn't know if this was the expensive or the smelly one.

Then, I smelled it.It's like Himalaya.It's different.

He woke up because of the intense smell.the barangay decided to bury the deumanok ambergris first.

So we made a permit at the DFAR to temporarily bury the balina or ambergris vinegar.

But on the same day, the authorities took it again and brought it to the town of Isulan to be examined.

There, we will find out if this is the cause of death of a deumanok.Ambergris.

60 million pesos.

sperm whale.It's not considered a by -product, but the fresh ambergris that looks like ambergris considered by -products, which is covered by the Philippine law.

Our program in BIFAR was organized to investigate the alleged Ambergris.From Manila, we flew a marine biologist to Sultan Kudarat.And for the first time, we will open the container van where the suspected Ambergris is hidden.I could already assert it.I could already assert it.

Oh my God.

He thought it was a possible ambergris, or baleen vinegar, which is an ingredient in expensive perfume.Its sales, based on Gabriel's online search, reached Php 300 ,000 per kilo.its weight can reach the price of 60 million pesos.

Is this a barracuda or a fish?

To find out if Gabriel will be able to sail this Thursday, our team sent a marine biologist from BIFAR or the Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources in the NCR region to Sultan Kudarat, Noni Enolva.At first glance, hamburgers.

I have seen many carcasses.

under the so -called hot needle test.

We can see the striations of her muscles.These fibers are the muscles of an animal.The ambergris also has a certain scent.It smells like burnt hair with a bit of salt that is a bit musky.Right now, in the meat that we tested, we didn't see that.The result is still negative.

It can also be a spermicity organ.This is what whales use for echolocation.We use it to make candles from the 18th to 19th century.I would highly recommend that we bury it.So, even here in the area, it should be buried in the ground.

I was dismayed, sir.I'm positive that it's negative, but it's better to bury it first.
