Make and Mend! Ends Three-Episode Run with a Powerful Message on Sustainable Fashion

The three-part reality lifestyle program Make and Mend! officially concluded its production and airing run, leaving audiences with a renewed perspective on the relationship between sustainability and fashion. In its premiere episode, the show introduced a bold challenge that tasked three designers to create high-fashion runway ensembles using only secondhand materials sourced from local ukay shops. To raise the stakes further, each contestant had to stay within a strict five-hundred-peso budget. Stepping up to the challenge were Aivann Romero of Ateneo de Manila University, Ian Dave Allam of Far Eastern University, and Mary Joanne Ordoña of University of Santo Tomas.

Each designer entered the competition determined to demonstrate that sustainability and high fashion could coexist without compromising artistic vision. The competition went beyond the studio in the second episode, immersing viewers in the realities of Filipino commuting culture. The designers traveled to their chosen ukay-ukay locations by ordinary public transportation, with Aivann riding a tricycle to Bambang, Ian boarding a jeepney to Recto, and Joanne navigating the familiar streets of España on foot. 

Meanwhile, inside the studio, hosts Danna and Cheki were joined by fashion consultant and CEO Ms. Marion Solon, whose expert insights guided viewers through the fast-paced and often overwhelming experience of thrift shopping. Despite the pressure and unpredictability of the hunt, all three contestants successfully gathered the materials they needed for the competition. For the show’s major design challenge, the contestants were instructed to interpret the theme “Peak Hours: What It Takes to Get There”. To critique the designers’ work, the program assembled a progressive panel of judges composed of Ms. Marion Solon, rising fashion designer Reese Latonio, and filmmaker and costume designer Cris Cao.

Reese Latonio recently debuted his namesake fashion label through his graduation collection, Sidlak, while Cris Cao built his creative foundation through his work with Project 8 Projects. Together, the panel evaluated how effectively the designers translated personal narratives into wearable art. The grand runway presentation served as the culmination of the competition, with every contestant unveiling pieces that reflected unique stories and perspectives. Aivann’s creation, Bound by the Rush, portrayed the suffocating nature of urban commuting through a constricting corset silhouette, distressed vertical lines inspired by railway tracks, and a clock-inspired handbag symbolizing the persistence required of daily commuters.

Her emotionally resonant presentation earned her the Runway Regal award for best stage presence. Ian secured the Haul of Fame award for his impressive collection of thrifted materials. His design paid tribute to provincial students who leave their hometowns to pursue opportunities in Manila.

Drawing inspiration from the traditional banga, his garment incorporated fading provincial tones to represent the sacrifices, struggles, and emotional weight of leaving behind his home in Santa Maria, Isabela. In the end, Joanne emerged as the competition’s overall winner, earning both the Mending Maestro award for technical excellence and the grand title of Most Iconic Ukay Royalty. Inspired by the utilitarian aesthetic of Renan Pacson, her modern Filipiniana ensemble utilized rigid denim fabrics to echo the exhaustion and discomfort of long commutes. Spiral accents symbolized endless rush-hour queues, eyelets represented overcrowded transportation systems, and authentic receipts highlighted the financial strain that accompanies everyday labor and travel.

Through its inventive challenges and emotionally grounded storytelling, Make and Mend! successfully reframed ukay-ukay culture as more than just an affordable shopping experience. The show positioned thrifting as a stylish, practical, and environmentally conscious response to the growing global sustainability crisis. At the end, M&M Studios delivered a compelling reminder that the future of fashion lies in sustainability, and that true style is defined not merely by appearance, but by purpose and intention.

The Pod Network Hits 50 Million Listeners in 2025, Cements Status as PH’s Leading Podcast Group

Manila, Philippines — The Pod Network (TPN), the country’s leading podcast network, announces it surpassed 50 million total listeners in 2025. This milestone reaffirms TPN’s dominance in the local podcast landscape, driven by high-engagement content and a rapidly expanding listener base.

Beyond the 50 million total listenership, TPN reported robust growth in community loyalty, boasting 4 million accumulated followers across its Spotify portfolio and a steady baseline of 3 million weekly listeners.

The network’s growth was fueled by a diverse content slate that resonated across demographics. TPN’s top-performing shows for 2025 included comedy show The KoolPals, Wake Up With Jim and Saab, Ano Ba Talaga? with Kuya Kim, Sitio Bangungot - Pinoy Horror Stories for Sleep Podcast, and Lecheng Pag Ibig ‘To. This mirrors the network’s 2025 data, which identified Comedy, Conversational Talk Shows, and Narrative Horror as the top-performing categories in the local market.

TPN’s continuous growth reflects a study released last year highlighting that more Filipinos are turning to podcasts to cope with emotional fatigue and mental saturation in an increasingly hyperconnected digital landscape.

“Podcasting isn’t just a format. It’s a habit. People don’t just stumble into a podcast — they choose it, they return to it, and they make it part of their day,” said Alan Fontanilla, CEO of The Pod Network.

Fontanilla emphasized that TPN’s 2026 direction focuses on intentionality. “We believe the future belongs to media that people choose with intention, and creators who show up with purpose, not content that fills time, but conversations that mean something. Reach creates awareness; trust creates preference. Podcasting is where we build the latter.”

The network also recognized global audio platform Spotify for its continued investment in the Filipino creator economy, from platform distribution to initiatives like launching the first-ever state-of-the-art podcast studio at TPN headquarters.

TPN unveils 2026 slate, including new show

Building on its 2025 success, TPN unveiled its 2026 content slate at “Press Play: The Pod Network’s 2026 Press Preview” at The Split, BGC. The lineup reinforces TPN’s dominance across comedy, lifestyle, and public affairs, with creators emphasizing that their growth is rooted in authenticity.

TPN’s top creators noted that the network’s high engagement stems from a departure from traditional, polished media. The KoolPals co-host James Caraan attributes their following to “underground” honesty, while Lecheng Pag-Ibig ’To’s Sam YG highlights how his show evolved from a relationship advice channel into a safe space for community-wide discourse on life and burnout.

This intentionality extends to TPN’s public affairs and education slate. Kuya Kim Atienza, host of Ano Ba Talaga?, emphasized the unique intimacy of the medium, noting that podcasting required him to pivot from “broadcasting” to active listening. Similarly, journalist Pia Hontiveros of Let’s Talk noted that the platform offers a vital human connection, stating, “People are looking to feel seen, it’s about making complex issues understandable and meaningful.”

The event also marked the launch of Between Us, a new show hosted by celebrity couple Iza Calzado and Ben Wintle. The series aims to normalize deep, vulnerable conversations on health, identity, and personal growth, offering listeners the “space” to discuss topics often overlooked in the daily grind.

"Our 2025 snapshot proves that today’s Filipino listeners aren't just looking for content but resonance. By fostering an ecosystem of intentional media, we’ve transitioned from being a platform to becoming a trusted companion. Whether it’s through comedy, investigative discourse, or raw personal growth, we are committed to hosting the conversations that matter most to our audience," said Inna Salazar, Head of Content Development of TPN.

PHILSME Business Show Podcast Stands Out as the Philippines’ Only Podcast Dedicated to SMEs

MANILA, Philippines – In a media landscape filled with general business content, one show continues to carve a space specifically for Filipino entrepreneurs: the PHILSME Business Show Podcast, now marking its first anniversary as the Philippines’ only podcast-vodcast series built exclusively for SMEs.

Produced by the Philippine SME Business Expo and Network, the show first aired in August 2024 and has since become a go-to source for real stories and actionable insights, streamed weekly on Spotify and YouTube.

Over the past year, the PHILSME Business Show has released two full seasons—8 episodes in Season 1 and 11 episodes in Season 2—featuring both established business icons and rising entrepreneurs. Past guests include entrepreneur RJ Ledesma, IWG’s Lars Wittig, branding expert Ric Gindap, KinetX CEO Rowen Untivero, Franchise Flow’s Jas Barinaga, and VoiceCon PH’s Ron and Joyce Titular, alongside standout members of the PHILSME Business Network.

• Rowena Natividad, first Filipina Country Manager of International Workplace Group (IWG)
  
  
• Lawrence Ferrer, President and CEO of CIS Bayad Center Inc.
  
  
• Christopher James Payne, President of Veritas Pay Philippines
  
  
• Jong Layug, Jr., Head of GCash for Business

Seasons 2 and 3 of the PHILSME Business Show are recorded and edited by Sine Haraya and filmed at IWG Spaces World Plaza. Both serve as sponsors of the PHILSME Business Network.

“We built this show because there wasn’t anything like it—no platform that consistently puts the spotlight on the real journey of Filipino SMEs,” said Trixie Esguerra-Abrenilla, CEO and Managing Director of PHILSME. “That’s what makes the PHILSME Business Show different. It’s authentic, focused, and built for entrepreneurs looking for practical lessons and inspiration from those who’ve walked the path.”

The podcast-vodcast is now recognized as a central hub for the PHILSME Business Network, extending the impact of the 17th PHILSME Business Expo, happening November 28–29, 2025, at the World Trade Center in Metro Manila.

The Pod Network Launches Audio Anthology Series ‘Stories @ the Pod’ With ‘Trese’ Writer Budjette Tan

Manila, Philippines — The Pod Network, the country’s leading podcast network, announces the launch of Stories @ The Pod, an audio anthology series that transforms Filipino literary works into immersive, cinematic podcast experiences.

Co-produced by award-winning audio production company Hit Productions, the limited series is designed to showcase contemporary Philippine literature through audio listening.

"I'm excited that Hit Productions’ collaboration with our partners at The Pod Network and author Budjette Tan has made it possible for his stories to reach new and wider audiences,” Hit Productions CEO Vic Icasas said.

The first season kicks off with four tales from ‘Kwentoys,’ the upcoming book by Budjette Tan, the writer behind the Netflix animated series Trese. Kwentoys is a collection of short stories he wrote over a span of 20 years, blending folklore, memory, and the magic of everyday Filipino life, and features illustrations by his brother Brandie Tan. The tales are eerie, nostalgic, and deeply personal, each with an interesting backstory from the author.

"These stories deserve to be heard—literally. They're not just retold; they’re reimagined,” shared Kwentoys creator Budjette Tan.

Episodes of Stories @ The Pod feature a fully-produced audio drama adaptation from Steve and Nyx of the Book of Bad Ideas podcast and a heartfelt conversation with Budjette with Earl of the Philippine Campfire Stories podcast, diving into the inspiration, culture, and emotion behind each tale.

With narratives about lost kids, ancient myths, and childhood memories, Stories @ The Pod is a new space for Filipino authors to share their work and a chance for listeners to connect with literature through an immersive soundscape.

"We at The Pod Network are thrilled to share this collaboration with such creative minds and talents in the literature, sound, and podcast spheres,” says Inna Salazar Acuña, Head of Content at The Pod Network.

Catch Stories @ The Pod on Spotify or wherever you get your podcasts. For more information about The Pod Network, you may visit www.thepodnetwork.com or their Facebook page.

‘Overstimulated’ Pinoys Drive Podcast Listenership for Emotional Refuge - Study

Manila, Philippines - Filipinos are turning to podcasts for emotional refuge amidst overstimulation from digital fatigue.

This is the key finding of “The Two Faces of the Overwhelmed,” a study conducted by The Pod Network, the country’s leading podcast network, in partnership with socio-cultural research firm The Fourth Wall. The study examined the consumption behavior of the podcast listenership in the Philippines.

The study, which surveyed hundreds of digital users early this year, reveals that more Filipinos are turning to podcasts as tools to cope with feeling emotionally overwhelmed or mentally saturated, a result of today's hyperconnected digital landscape.

According to the study, there are two faces of podcast listeners: the 'mindful navigators' and 'content grazers.' The 'mindful navigators' are categorized as those aged 25 and above, balancing work, life, and family responsibilities, who turn to podcasts for relief. Their overstimulation stems from doing too much, and they seek podcasts for genuine relief, not mere distraction. With a stimulation score of +2.06 and a higher reliance on podcasts (53% identifying it as a key source of relief), ‘Mindful navigators’ spend up to six hours daily listening to narrative, reflective, or calming shows, often during commutes, chores, or end-of-day wind-downs.

Meanwhile, 'content grazers' are those under 25 who are immersed in a multi-platform world, jumping between TikTok, Spotify, and YouTube. They show a lower stimulation score (-1.63) and lighter podcast reliance (47%), listening 1-4 hours per day, often while multitasking. Unlike 'mindful navigators,' their podcast use isn't emotionally anchored but more driven by boredom or habit.

The study also reveals that while podcasts emerged as tools for calm, the emotional value they bring to consumers extends beyond just meditation apps or self-help monologues. 'Mindful navigators' prefer clear, calm, conversational content, with ideal episode lengths of 30-45 minutes, especially during evening de-stressing periods (6:00–8:00 PM). Meanwhile, 'content grazers' are drawn to humor, energy, and cultural relevance in shorter, dynamic episodes.

John Brylle Bae, Research Director at The Fourth Wall, emphasizes the implications for creators, saying, "Today's digital landscape presents a generation overwhelmed by multitasking, digital noise, and attention fatigue. Hence, podcasts are increasingly becoming a reset button for silence and mindfulness. This key finding emphasizes that engagement is not just about time, but about purpose, opening new strategic ground for creators to better connect with their audience."

Alan Fontanilla, CEO of The Pod Network Entertainment, underscores the growth and opportunities within the industry.

"This study not only provides insights into the listenership behaviors of Filipinos but, more importantly, offers a roadmap for action for creators and brands. Podcasts are increasingly becoming an emotional infrastructure. Therefore, creators must understand the importance of designing podcast shows for emotional need, while brands need to realize that podcast ads aren’t interruptions but opportunities to build emotional trust."

The "Beyond the Headphones: The Portrait of a Podcast Listener as Filipino" report, released last year, indicated over 17 million weekly podcast listenership in the country, with comedy emerging as the top genre for Filipinos.

Weekly Podcast Listenership Hits 17M in the Philippines - Study

May 2024 Manila, Philippines - A study reveals more Filipinos are now tuning in to podcasts.

The "Beyond the Headphones: The Portrait of a Podcast Listener as Filipino" report indicates that over 17 million internet-connected Filipinos, or 19.8% of the internet-connected population aged 16 to 64, listen to podcasts weekly. This marks an increase of 2.6% from 2023.

The report, a collaboration among the country’s three largest podcast networks, The Pod Network, Anima Podcast, PumaPodcast, and socio-cultural research firm The Fourth Wall, highlights the growing popularity of podcasts in the Philippines, which boasts an internet-connected population of 86.98 million.

According to the report, which surveyed hundreds of respondents, the popularity of podcasts has been rising since 2020. While the Internet (81.9%) and social media (80.8%) remained the most preferred information platforms, in 2023, podcasts (50.5%) have surpassed other media platforms such as online video streaming sites (40.4%), online news portals (22.1%), and television (19.9%) as the most preferred information source.

 
The report details that the rise of podcasts may be explained by the respondents' prioritization of accessibility (82%) and convenience (74%) when choosing their media platform.

The report describes that the majority of the country's podcast listeners are millennials or Generation Y, or those aged 25 to 34, who live in urban areas such as the Greater Manila area.

The Fourth Wall Research Director John Brylle Bae details Filipinos' listening habits while also stating that the country's growing popularity of podcasts mirrors the global trend of becoming one of the leading sources of information.

"Our research has found that the majority of podcast audiences tend to listen to podcasts after work or school hours, when commuting, or while doing household chores. This pattern is in line with global trends where podcasts serve as a preferred source of both entertainment and information. Audiences choose podcasts for their ability to seamlessly integrate into daily routines, offering a unique mix of engaging and informative content," said Bae.

A 2022 study by the Pew Research Center indicated that 67% of American podcast listeners claim that the podcasts they subscribe to discuss news and current events. Of those who get news from podcasts, 87% expect the information to be mostly accurate.

The report also reveals the most listened-to podcast genres in the Philippines. About 74% of those surveyed revealed they listen to comedy podcasts led by podcasts like The KoolPals, followed by personal development (64%), culture (55%), and politics (49%). The survey suggests that podcast consumers gravitate towards topics that are both entertaining and informative, underscoring their preference for engaging yet substantial content.

The study findings were presented during the event, “Podcasts, Pizza, and Pints,” hosted by the three podcast networks, on April 4, 2024, at Clock-In at the Ayala North Exchange, Makati.

The event, in partnership with streaming platform Spotify and sponsored by WOW Fiesta and Breville, gathered over 200 professionals from industries like advertising, marketing, and public relations and featured discussions on the developing podcast landscape in the Philippines.

In addition to discussing the report's findings, the event also highlighted how brands can effectively incorporate podcasts into their marketing strategies. Spotify's Wrapped for Advertisers for 2023 report revealed that podcast ads have accelerated by 40% Year-on-Year (YoY), making them the platform’s fastest-growing ad product.

Alan Fontanilla, CEO of The Pod Network, said the growing popularity of podcasts in the Philippines, cited in the report, provides advertisers and marketers with another avenue to reach their audiences.

"We are at an intersection in the evolution of media consumption in the Philippines. As more Filipinos tune into podcasts for their unique blend of entertainment and information, we see an invaluable opportunity for creators and advertisers alike to engage with an audience that values depth and accessibility. We are excited about what's to come as we celebrate and leverage this dynamic shift towards audio-first content.”

Together with Fontanilla, Mel Lozano, Head of Podcasts of Anima Podcasts, and Carl Javier, CEO of PumaPodcast, served as the event hosts.

Aside from the insightful discussions, attendees had the opportunity to interact with some of the country's most sought-after podcasters. Present at the event were Nicole Hyala and Chris Tsuper of Tambalan Podcast, Antoinette Jadaone and JP Habac of Ang Walang Kwentang Podcast, Bianca Gonzales of Paano Ba 'To, Dani Barretto of The Bare It All Podcast, Joyce Pring of Adulting with Joyce Pring, Lyqa Maravilla of Trying Hard with Lyqa Maravilla, and GB Labrador, James Caraan, Nonong Ballinan, and Muman Reyes of The KoolPals.

The report forecasts that podcast listenership will continue to expand, particularly in rural areas, as digital penetration deepens across the Philippines. This trend is supported by the steadily increasing number of internet users, underscoring the emerging role of podcasts as a dominant media platform in the country.
