Welcome to to our first three-quarter's episode! No, this isn't a tribute to Harry Potter. This is a snack-size (meryenda) episode to help tide you over when there are three weeks between our full episodes. In these episodes, we try our best to debunk a Filipino custom/tradition or stereotype/myth. In this meryenda episode, we do our best to explain why Filipinos walk with tsinelas (slippers) inside one's house. We take a closer look at why we have alot of Titas. We do a bit of a history dive as to why Filipinos love karaoke. Finally, why do we eat with forks and spoons?
