#komiksman #komiksmanpodcast #tpkp #thekomiksmanmethod #raffytulfoinaction #abortiondebate #sexworkdebate #sexworkisworkListen to Prof. Matt's P*I* Podcast: https://open.spotify.com/show/3Ch3BNaAE2cfl7OdMpwsxu?si=b4a81ec6503e4eb9 The following is my first conversation with Professor Matt Ordonez, another fellow podcaster and an esteemed lecturer in various universities in Metro Manila. He hosts the insightful, PI Podcast and teaches Citizenship and Governance, Devevelopment Economics, Politics, and Cinema as a college professor. Keep in mind that I had put in the timestamps so you can browse the contents of this video in advance using the chapters feature on Spotify and YouTube, especially since this podcast jumps from multiple sometimes unrelated topics like podcasting, politics, politicians like Raffy Tulfo and the Dutertes, philosophy, comics, the academe, social classes, influencers, and even toxic YouTube dramas. This is just how the show goes and how a typical conversation with me works. The highlight of this episode for me though are our exchanges of ideas regarding sex work, pornography, abortion, and social decay. I thought it was a very productive discussion where every Filipino can learn from the insights that were given from both sides. That happens around the last quarter of the video so don't miss that part, ok?
