But before they dive into the glazed ham, Korean chicken and Noche Buena of it all, the crew discusses their "Prison Dancer" musical experience. Recounting the highlights which included supporting their friends Norm (Hookaps) and Dom (Shakespeare) and being on Team Cherish with Evernote on repeat. They all agreed it was so special to see amazing Filipino Canadian representation on the stage and cannot wait to travel to NYC if this hit is Broadway bound.

As Jezzie shares with  Sigi and the guests in on his family traditions filled with themes, videos and a Lady Gaga wig, they collectively agree how a plethora of food and the gathering of families remain a constant among their families. Further, they focus on what kindness and kapwa means to them and to our culture as Filipinos.
