Did you know, our co-founder Aileen and I are not only connected through Pangyao; we also work on the radio together. Interested to learn more? Then let’s read on…

It gives valuable information, but it’s not Wikipedia. It makes you laugh, but it’s not the Bubble Gang. It discusses current affairs, but it’s not Ka Tunying’s show. It covers wide-ranging interviews, but it isn’t Toni Talks. It includes showbiz tittle-tattle, but it’s not Startalk. It plays great music, but it isn’t Casey Kasem’s Top 10.  

It has valour. It is unique. It brings hope and solutions; it is there to delight. It keeps you informed and always puts a smile on your face.

It is the radio show Pinoy Life on RTHK Radio 3 / AM 567.

‘Malaman, puno ng saya at inpormasyon,’ Pinoy Life airs every Sunday from 4pm to 6pm on RTHK Radio 3. Aileen Alonzo-Hayward and yours truly, Ron R. Lacson, are your hosts and producers of the show.

Pakinggan ang magandang boses ni Aileen at tumawa sa mga funny jokes (minsan corny) ko. Pinoy Life prides itself on its capability and tenacity in bringing the following segments in its 2-hour spectacle.

Ano ba ang meron sa programa namin?

Music

The sequences are standard and popular yet unorthodox and distinctive. You’ll hear the most requested songs on the planet, yet also have the liberty of listening to various OPM (Original Pilipino Music) tracks by Filipino songwriters. Very relaxing. Sometimes, you might be tempted to sing along…or even dance.

Philippine major news

The most germane and pertinent news in our nation, from politics to new ordinances to current events, all packaged and delivered for the benefit of OFWs; Pinoy Life ensures you never miss out on the most significant affairs affecting daily Buhay Pinoy. It’s like SMNI News and UNTV Hataw Balita (CNN and BBC, too) neatly combined into one parcel.   

Celebrity balita

Ah, the favourite of all. Pinoy Life captures the juiciest elements of your favourite local celebrities in the Philippines, following their exciting and sometimes spicy lives on and off the TV and movie screens.

Here at Pinoy Life, we understand the Pinoy appetite for showbiz-tsismak.  Blazing exchanges of opinion between Aileen and I usually follow. ‘Matsika at buhay ang mga Marites dito.’

Usapang OFW

This segment provides serious discourse about the plight and experiences of our OFWs, both here in Hong Kong, and in other countries where Filipinos dwell.

Sad, happy, scary, helpless, exciting, hopeful, adventurous, and occasionally silly moments, are some facets of the shared but riveting accounts of ordinary OFWs, which are discussed in this slice. ‘May luha at tawa.’ 

Usapang discussion

Do you have a hunger to listen to exciting and interesting topics? Then look no further – you don’t have to go through the trouble of finding them.

This portion gives you a ready-made list of thought-provoking subjects, ranging from discussions about life, food, places, how to deal with negative people, understanding if you’re a night owl or an early bird, discovering your passion, how to avoid scams, and many more. 

These are topics you can use in different situations with different people.  ‘May aliw, kaalaman at kababalaghan.’

Join kayo sa amin

This is where Aileen and I invite our listeners to share their opinions, queries, and comments concerning life and time. It’s a section never short on surprise and intrigue. ‘Kataka-taka at kakaibang mga opinyon.’

There are many other thrilling segments, like Itanong mo kay attorney, Itanong mo kay doc, Know your hosts a bit more, exciting guests on the show, etc. 

So, what are you waiting for? ‘Listen na’ and ‘Listen pa more.’
