We open up a plethora of Tambag or Nayabag submissions for this topic and boy was it a RIDE! In this episode, we tackle awkward moments like bad pick up lines and being caught in a sticky situation by your boyfriend's mom. Ma da ni og tambag or nayabag na jud ni?
Lastly we address the sensitive topic of bullying and body image issues growing up and how it carries over in adulthood.
PSA: let's be kind to one another, shall we?

We talk about awkward moments in our lives and reminisce the cringe-fest days of our past. The episode starts off with a bang as the girls discuss about having their first period -- spoiler alert: a prayer meeting was involved. We also talk about surviving the teenage pain that is puberty, awkward interactions with our crushes and dealing with boys and body hair. Zarah shares the most awkward encounter she has had with her crush which involved interviewing him for the school paper (spoiler alert part 2: it did not go well), while Alyssa reminisces her first kiss and the aftermath of the said kiss. Listen on to find out how that went! Spoiler alert part 3: it also did not go well at all.
We also talk about embracing awkward and uncomfortable situations and how we power through the awkwardness. Awkward situations are a part of life and the only way out of them is through.
Alyssa and Zarah recover from a wild week of health-related issues. Zarah just got her wisdom tooth removed and Alyssa underwent an excruciating week of tummy aches. We talk about the famous 'Sa ka sigeg computer man gud na nimo' statement by Filipino moms and beauty pageant answers. Suffice to say, the duo is BACK and more sabaw as ever. We end the episode with a Tambag or Na Yabag question regarding their significant other constantly joking about their weight? Is it a red flag or nah?
We sit and chat with Cebu's resident DJ, the one and only, DJ Victor Jao! We talk about balancing his passion with his career, his transition into the corporate world, and what fuels his passion as a DJ. We also open up the conversation of his favorite tracks to play and we ask the question: are the Chainsmokers overrated? Also, kamusta na iyang LOVE LIFE?! Char!
We revisit the Tambag or Nayabag submissions that we failed to talk about in our previous episodes...because we forgot to check on them. Oops. We'll do better this season guys!!! In this episode, we tackle interesting topics such as dating someone who doesn't eat pungko-pungko/karenderia food, what's the best and worst meal you've had onboard, the kilig of having airport crushes, and is it okay to greet your ex on their birthdays?
More importantly, we discuss the painful and intensely awkward moment of squeezing your way through seats in narrow spaces: are you a side-swivel person or a bilangkad nayshe? PSA: We do not condone of the latter. Please do not spread your legs in public guys. PLEASE.
Alyssa talks about PAL's famous lugaw and Zarah emphasizes the importance of sawsawan and realizing later on that she is, in fact, a sauce enthusiast.

Alyssa's Notes:
1. Looking back, I think I had beef and noodles (not rice.)
2. I meant Tsim Sha Tsui in the airport and not Siam! Zzz
If you guys are avid listeners of the Sugarhouse Podcast, you know that they always end their episodes with the question, "What are you grateful for today?".

We also do a puddle dive on our favorite movies as well as comfort albums and how SZA is an amazing artist.
