Dami Mong Sinasabi with My Boo, Dearly Beloved, House of the Dragon, and The Exorcism

July 02, 2024 10:00 - 57 minutes - 53.5 MB

SPOILER-FREE as always! FAQ: Kailangan ba napanood mo lahat ng mga 'to to enjoy the episode? Absolutely not! So kung hindi mo pa napanood ang The Exorcism, no problem! Starring Russell Crowe na last year lang ay meron na ring isa pang exorcism movie. Iba ba 'to? Pag-usapan natin! Then we also get into how we're finding the second season of House of the Dragon so far. Napanood na nga rin pala namin sa Netflix ang Dearly Beloved ni Baron Geisler and Cristine Reyes. Mike also reports on Mr. and ...

Uno kay Rizal with Inside Out 2, Fruitcake, The Boys, Hit Man, and Under Paris

June 24, 2024 06:00 - 1 hour - 79.6 MB

SPOILER-FREE tayo, kelangan pa bang i-memorize 'yan? It's our Inside Out 2 episode and please bear with us, we had too much fun talking about this hit sequel. Join us as we try to figure out why this movie works and what brought people to the cinemas in droves. We also dug up some of our own Teacher Rubylin memories from our formative years. Kung saan-saan nakarating but that's Please Pause for you! We also got into a couple of Netflix chart toppers. Una na ang French shark thriller na Under ...

Uno Kay Rizal with Inside Out 2, Fruitcake, The Boys, Hit Man, and Under Paris

June 24, 2024 06:00 - 1 hour - 79.6 MB

Join us as we try to figure out why this movie works and what brought people to the cinemas in droves. We also dug up some of our own Teacher Rubylin memories from our formative years.

Excuse You, Mama with Family of Two, Godzilla Minus One, Penduko, The Acolyte, and The Sympathizer

June 13, 2024 12:30 - 1 hour - 59.9 MB

SPOILER-FREE pa rin as usual! We hope this episode finds you well. We're going with a lot of stuff that we were able to finally watch like Sharon Cuneta and Alden Richards' mother and son drama in MMFF 2023, Family of Two. Napanood na namin 'to wakas sa Netflix pero dapat ba hinabol namin siya sa sinehan? Sama na rin natin sa usapan na yan ang Penduko which was directed by Jason Paul Lacamana and starred Matteo Guidicelli as an adventuring albularyo. We also get into a bunch of series, katula...

Pangako Sa'Yo Bill with Queen of Tears, Furiosa, Road Trip, Atlas, The 8 Show, and X-Men '97.

June 03, 2024 12:45 - 1 hour - 76.6 MB

SPOILER-FREE and as packed as it can be! Don't call it a comeback! It took us some much needed soul-searching but we're back in business. Sinimulan namin with George Miller's return to his radioactive desert wasteland, Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga! Anya Taylor-Joy and Chris Hemsworth racing around the apocalypse in their death machines may be compelling enough for a prequel but how does it fare against the so-called masterpiece that was Fury Road? Pag-usapan natin! After that, we also talked about...

Eto Na 'Yon, Girl! with Kingdom of the P.O.T.A., Can't Buy Me Love, I.P.R.A.P.K., and Challengers

May 16, 2024 10:00 - 1 hour - 64.4 MB

SPOILER-FREE—in all the parts that matters! After a hard-fought battle with our personal schedules, we finally managed to complete this podcasting "masterpiece" to add to our ever growing gallery of auditory artworks. A true masterclass in nonsense and stupidity. So let's go! We begin by recounting our recent trip to Cebu to attend a wedding. We then explore some wide age gap romances, both real and fictional. So napanood na rin namin finally ang Ikaw Pa Rin ang Pipiliin Ko starring Julia Bar...

Pitch Perfect with The Fall Guy, Fallout, The Idea of You, Rebel Moon, Shogun, Kampon, and More

May 05, 2024 17:30 - 55 minutes - 51.8 MB

SPOILER-FREE and you already know that! Hard to believe that this episode runs for under an hour when it seems like we've covered so much. We're already sleepy while writing this description and probably no one reads it anyway (you're more than welcome to disprove us) so we'll just rattle off what's in store for you in this episode. First of all, Ham was eating a donut so that'll explain the chewing noises. We talked about Prime Video's newest post-apocalyptic video game adaptation series, Fa...

The Procrastination Inclination with A Journey, Ghostbusters, Abigail, and Arthur the King

April 23, 2024 14:00 - 1 hour - 65.1 MB

We're back and we're SPOILER-FREE! We managed to piece together this monstrosity of an episode from our TV and film adventures of past two weeks. We have the Netflix chart topper (no surprise there), A Journey, starring Tabing Ilog-ers Kaye Abad, Paolo Contis, and Patrick Garcia. Directed by RC delos Reyes, this film promises some nostalgia and more. Kaya naman pag-usapan natin if it was able to bring that much more. Napanood din namin ang latest from the Ghostbusters franchise, ang Frozen Em...

Relationship Goals with Rewind, The First Omen, 3 Body Problem, Wish, and Becky and Badette

April 08, 2024 18:30 - 1 hour - 57.1 MB

Another SPOILER-FREE podcasting "masterpiece" delivered from our mouths to your ears! While that statement is questionable at best, we're certain that we had too much fun in this episode. Napanood na namin sa wakas ang phenomenal hit na Rewind kasi nasa Netflix an siya. Hindi naman siguro mapapakinggan ni Dingdong Dantes and Marian Rivera 'tong episode na 'to ever and that's probably for the best. Sama mo pa ang isa pang MMFF 2023 entry na nasa Netflix na rin, Direk Jun Lana's na Becky and Ba...

A Paroxysm of Narcissism with Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire, Immaculate, X-Men '97, and Irish Wish

March 31, 2024 16:00 - 1 hour - 65 MB

A SPOILER-FREE post-Semana Santa to all! Alam naman naming every one of us can't wait to go back to work *sarcastic cough* but we're here for you! Sinimulan namin sa pinakabagong movie ni Sydney Sweeney where she plays a nun na nabuntis in a horror-ridden convent, Immaculate! Nandito nga din pala si Professor Alvaro Morte. Kaya naman pag-usapan natin if nakabawi na si Sydney after Madame Web! Pagkatapos nun, we get into Lindsay Lohan's latest Netflix movie, Irish Wish. We really wish it was s...

Peace, Love, and Comedy with Mabuhay is a Lie, Damsel, 3 Days 2 Nights in Poblacion, and Bob Marley

March 18, 2024 07:30 - 1 hour - 64.8 MB

SPOILER-FREE pa rin syempre! We're really excited to present this episode to you because we're extremely proud of how it turned out—for all the right (and wrong) reasons! Una nang pinag-usapan ang latest movie ni Millie Bobby Brown na Damsel. Of course, it's a Netflix chart topper but was it worth the watch? Pagkatapos, kukuwentuhan tayo ni Ham about the premiere night of Jasmine Curtis-Smith and Barbie Imperial's 3 Days 2 Nights in Poblacion! If it wasn't obvious in this episode, we'll say i...

Hypocrisy Advocacy with Shogun, Thanksgiving, American Fiction, Shake, Rattle, and Roll and More

March 13, 2024 06:30 - 49 minutes - 45.4 MB

SPOILER-FREE as usual! We recorded this episode before the Oscars but now we know na ang unang pinag-usapan namin ay nanalo ng Best Adapted Screenplay! We talk about Cord Jefferson's American Fiction! If you haven't seen this film yet, let's just say we highly recommend it, lalo na kung may Prime Video kayo. And then, napanood na nga rin pala namin ang Shake, Rattle, and Roll Extreme kasi nasa Netflix na siya. We've heard good things about the latest movie in this long-running franchise. Pag-...

Agham Road Chronicles with Dune: Part Two, Iti Mapukpukaw, Avatar, and The Holdovers

March 05, 2024 10:00 - 1 hour - 75 MB

As SPOILER-FREE as a sandworm's underside. How many times do people need to hear that Dune: Part Two is really good? One more can't hurt, right? Just wait 'til you hear this episode! Hindi lang 'yan, we also have more in store. Katulad na lang ng entry natin sa Oscars, Carl Joseph Papa's Iti Mapukpukaw. Finally, this animated feature is now on Netflix for those of us na hindi nakapanood nito sa Cinemalaya. We also got into the critically acclaimed film by director Alexander Payne, The Holdove...

The WFH Manifesto with I Am Not Big Bird, Madame Web, As If It's True, and Kimetsu No Yaiba

February 25, 2024 14:00 - 1 hour - 76.7 MB

Okay, we're back and we'e still SPOILER-FREE! Ang dami na namang sinasabi this week as we start with something big! Pag-usapan natin ang "big" comeback ni Enrique Gil na I Am Not Big Bird! Directed by Victor Villanueva, this movie promised us something na hindi pa natin nakikita before from its star. Was it able to deliver? Join us and let's talk about the huge expectations from this sex comedy. Pagkatapos nun, dun naman tayo sa medyo seryoso kasi lumabas na sa Netflix ang As If It's True, st...

Utter Failure with Poor Things, Lisa Frankenstein, Apag, and Alexander: The Making of a God

February 12, 2024 14:00 - 1 hour - 66.6 MB

This episode is dedicated to all the non-believers! SPOILER-FREE pa rin syempre. We're going to start with the Yorgos Lanthimos' widely acclaimed film, Poor Things! It's finally getting a wide release in Philippine cinemas and Emma Stone will finally get the... Exposure. We've seen it and we'll give you a lot of reasons to watch it. Pero matatawag nga ba 'tong masterpiece? Pag-usapan natin! Napanood na rin nga pala namin ang Hollywood debut ni Liza Soberano, ang Lisa Frankenstein! Directed by...

Sarap Sampalin with Expats, True Detective: Night Country, and Argylle

February 05, 2024 11:00 - 1 hour - 59.7 MB

SPOILER-FREE pa rin syempre! Tamang kuwentuhan lang! We're going to talk about two on-going series that got us eagerly waiting week after week. Una na diyan ang Hong Kong drama ni Lulu Wang na Expats. Starrring Nicole Kidman and our very own, Ruby Ruiz, this mini-series has not been free of controversy. But as a Prime Video show, worth it ba siyang panoorin? Or is it just a bunch of rich people crying about rich people problems? Pag-usapan natin! Samahan mo pa ng some walang kwentang parentin...

Honest Review with GG, Marry My Husband, Instant Daddy, and Saltburn

January 29, 2024 13:00 - 1 hour - 65.9 MB

SPOILER-FREE so you can listen WORRY-FREE! We're announcing the winner of our New Year's Raffle! In this roller coaster ride of an episode, we talk about the latest K-drama we can't get enough of, Marry My Husband! Starring Park Min-young and Na In-woo, it's an interesting take on traveling back and time and getting a chance to change your life—which you would probably want to do too if you have an evil husband and best friend. Napanood din namin sa Netflix ang isa na namang movie nang VIVA F...

The Ghosts of Podcasts Past with Mallari, Wish You Were the One, Echo, and Lift

January 22, 2024 13:15 - 59 minutes - 55.4 MB

SPOILER-FREE na kuwentuhan lang! Tayo-tayo lang naman diba? Ang hirap mag-usap about stuff na wala kaming alam about but that never stopped us before so why stop now? Despite going off-topic on beauty pageants, traffic, and celebrity chismis, we did get to a bunch of movies and series in this episode. Habol pa more sa MMFF with our third one this season, Mallari! Boasting a cast of three Piolo Pascuals, this Derick Cabrido-helmed horror film had a lot going for it. As in a lot. But nasiyahan ...

Ang Nega Mo with Firefly, Gomburza, Gyeongseong Creature, What If...?, and The Brothers Sun

January 15, 2024 10:00 - 50 minutes - 46.7 MB

SPOILER-FREE so you can listen WORRY-FREE! Eh 'di eto na nga, nakahabol kami sa MMFF! And we started with this year's Best Picture, Firefly. Directed by Zig Dulay, this heartwarming and fantasy film starring Best Child Performer Euwenn Mikael Aleta promised some tears, so let's see if it delivered. And meron pa kaming napanood na isa, 'yong 2nd Best Picture naman na Gomburza! Directed by Pepe Diokno, this historical film is as educational as it gets but was it as good as a cinematic experienc...

Nakakahiya Ka with No Hard Feelings, Berlin, Yu Yu Hakusho, Rebel Moon, The Beekeeper, and More

January 08, 2024 11:30 - 1 hour - 55.7 MB

We're back and we're SPOILER-FREE! Kuwentuhan lang! Sa tagal naming nawala, we have so much to catch up on like what is said to be the best MMFF in recent memory—at wala pa kaming napapanood kahit isa! So uunahin na lang namin 'yong mga nahabol namin while recovering from the most tiring vacation of our entire lives. We saw David Ayer's The Beekeeper starring Jason Statham. Showing na 'yan in cinemas on January 10. We were also able to watch Zack Snyder's much-hyped (not according to Ham) spa...

Congee in Absentia with Wonka, Roadkillers, Doctor Who, Leave the World Behind, and Quiz Lady

December 15, 2023 08:00 - 1 hour - 56 MB

SPOILER-FREE as usual! We managed to squeeze in a recording right before we go on vacation and here we are! Let's start with Timothee Chalamet in the chocolate musical, Wonka! Was this one of our much anticipated movies? Not really but somehow it felt like we should watch it. Tapos pinag-usapan namin ang Prime Video series ni President Nadine Lustre na Roadkillers! Written and directed by Rae Red, this action thriller from Prime Video has Nadine tackling COVID, crime, politics, and dead bodie...

Reflection Paper with Replacing Chef Chico, Marita, Leo, Wish, and Squid Game: The Challenge

November 28, 2023 04:30 - 1 hour - 60.4 MB

Another week, another SPOILER-FREE episode! Best effort! To start off, we talk about the latest Disney movie, Wish. Full disclosure though, hindi namin siya napanood. But we're talking about it nonetheless as only Please Pause can. Then we get into the first bonafide Netflix original Filipino series from Project 8 Projects starring Alessandra de Rossi, Piolo Pascual, and Sam Milby, Replacing Chef Chico! Ham was able to go to the premiere screening of this Antoinette Jadaone and Dan Villegas c...

November 22, 2023 08:00 - 1 hour - 55.8 MB

SPOILER-FREE as usual from the best TV and film podcast in the Philippines—according to us. Because we're delusional. And on this episode, we'd like to tell you all about The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes! We know what you're going to say, we said we weren't that interested, but hear us out! Maybe we'll get some of you to let Tom Blythe and Rachel Zegler take you back to good old Panem. Or not! From the cinema to Netflix, we also get into David Fincher's latest film, The Ki...

Ibang Puss with The Marvels, Loki, and Trolls Band Together

November 14, 2023 11:00 - 54 minutes - 50.5 MB

SPOILER-FREE so you can listen WORRY-FREE! On this week's episode, we're offering an apology, a bunch of shout outs, and some call outs--all interwoven among a web of tangents, as only Please Pause can do! First off, we went to the special screening of Trolls Band Together and apparently, a great way to make yourself realize that you're not a kid anymore is to watch a movie for little kids, with little kids! Anna Kendrick and Justin Timberlake is at it again in this sequel but did they hit th...

My Boo with The Cheating Game, The Fall of the House of Usher, and Simula sa Gitna

November 07, 2023 16:30 - 1 hour - 60.6 MB

SPOILER-FREE meaningful and meaningless conversations about the stuff we watched! And boy did we lean into the meaningless this week! Right off the bat, we just want to let you know na mukhang wala kayong matitinong mapapala from us sa episode na 'to. Simulan natin with Direk Rod Marmol's The Cheating Game. Starring Julie Anne San Jose and Rayver Cruz in their first movie together? Nabasa lang namin. Guess that makes this a big deal? Listen in as we try to figure this movie out while making a...

Ham Sandwich with Five Breakups and a Romance, Rookie, and Perfume: The Story of a Murderer (2006)

October 23, 2023 13:45 - 1 hour - 63 MB

SPOILER-FREE as usual! Two new movies are enough para sa episode na 'to! First up, napanood na namin sa wakas ang Cinemalaya audience favorite na Rookie because it just came out on Prime Video. Directed by Samantha Lee, written by Natts Jadaone, and starring Pat Tingjuy and Aya Fernandez, we probably had too much fun watching and talking about this queer romance na ang lakas maka-high school vibes. And then there's the much anticipated movie kung saan nagtambal si Julia Montes and si Alden Ri...

Sa Balat ng Ina Mo with Can't Buy Me Love, Target, In My Mother's Skin, Totally Killer, and More

October 17, 2023 16:00 - 1 hour - 56.3 MB

SPOILER-FREE when it matters! They say consistency is key when it comes to podcasting kaya naman we're releasing episodes whenever we're releasing episodes! So let's put some searchable key words here in the episode description. We watched the Filipino folk horror film of Kenneth Dagatan, In My Mother's Skin. You can also watch it on Prime Video if you're interested to see Jasmine Curtis-Smith as an elaborately dressed fairy. We also watched some episodes of Can't Buy Me Love, the first full-...

Christian Haydensen with Keys to the Heart, Ahsoka, Loki, OMITB, Ang Pangarap Kong Oskars, and More

October 10, 2023 09:00 - 1 hour - 57.3 MB

Unahin na natin ang A Very Good Girl that stars a very good actress in Dolly de Leon and a very good A-lister in Kathryn Bernardo. Was it worth the very good hype?

SPOILER-FREE as usual! Napanood niyo man or hindi, no problem! Sinimulan namin sa John Wick spin-off series na The Continental where we follow a young and dashing Winston Scott before he was the manager of the hotel. Join us and pag-usapan natin—kailangan nga ba talaga ng John Wick ng spin-off? Or is this just how modern movie franchises work? After that, Ham tells us all about the R-16 dog movie na Strays! Starring Will Ferell and Jamie Foxx, inggit lang si Mike dahil hindi niya napanood 'to...

Ang mga Asawa ni King Triton with What If, One Piece (Ulit), The Little Mermaid, Mask Girl, and More

September 11, 2023 11:30 - 1 hour - 72.9 MB

SPOILER-FREE and supersized, this episode is! So much to talk about but so little time so hindi na kami magpapaligoy-ligoy pa. Pinag-usapan namin ang sort of out of nowhere na Netflix Philippines chart topper ni Alessandra de Rossi and JM de Guzman na What If! Is it a drama? Is it a comedy? Is it an island getaway? Or is it a natural disaster? Baka naman all of the above? Listen in and join the conversation! Dahil meron na rin ditong JM de Guzman, we also talked about his movie with Cindy Mir...

And with our new season we've brought some new adventures with us starting with the much anticipated live-action adaptation of One Piece! Did Netflix finally get one right? Can one even judge if hindi naman niya nabasa yung manga or napanood yung anime? Listen in and let's see. Pinag-usapan din dito ang late...

Sa Susunod na Another Life with Past Lives, Ahsoka, TMNT: Mutant Mayhem, and Love You Long Time

August 29, 2023 08:00 - 1 hour - 70.2 MB

SPOILER-FREE as usual kaya kuwentuhan lang! Alam niyo naman, here at Please Pause, we're all about spreading film literacy to whoever's willing to listen. Or not. Probably not. What we're doing may even be detrimental to the cause. But that'll never stop us from delivering your weekly dose of movie mischief! Una na diyan, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turles: Mutant Mayhem! The lovable foursome of Leonardo, Raphael, Michelangelo, and Donatello may be near and dear to some old heads but is this old fra...

E pano ba naman, we just had to share our thoughts about the movies na kakanood lang namin. Unang-una na diyan ang latest film ng DCEU, Blue Beetle!

God's Greatest Gift to Humanity with Mission Impossible, Seasons, and Dave

July 16, 2023 20:00 - 1 hour - 59.1 MB

98.6% SPOILER-FREE overall but 100% SPOILER-FREE guaranteed when it matters! We ate our words from last week's episode and we ended up watching much acclaimed Mission Impossible: Dead Reckoning Part One after all. We had a lot of ground to cover here from the different tiers of being a tito or tita, to the classic Windows Media Player audio visualizer, to the kinds of stunts a 95-year old actor can do. So is Dead Reckoning as great as people say it is? Ilang Mission Impossibles pa kaya ang ka...

July 16, 2023 20:00 - 1 hour - 59.1 MB

Nakakasakit ng Ulo with Fit Check, Missing, Secret Invasion, The Bear, and The Idol

July 09, 2023 16:00 - 1 hour - 57.7 MB

SPOILER-FREE pa rin but never any less fun! Unang-una na, nangangalahati na ang Secret Invasion on Disney Plus so we present our halftime analysis of this series. Is it as good as its comic book counterpart? Is it as huge as an alien invasion should be? Let's discuss! Isa pang pinapanood namin currently–Fit Check: Confessions of an Ukay Queen! This Amazon original series from ABS-CBN and Dreamscape starring Kim Chiu is definitely another milestone in terms of Filipino content streaming. All t...

M.I.F. with King the Land, About Us But Not About Us, Rurouni Kenshin, and The Days

July 02, 2023 16:00 - 58 minutes - 54.2 MB

SPOILER-FREE as usual but unqualified as ever! Check out our brand new segment where we try to decide if it's worth investing in some upcoming movies–M.I.F.: Maharlika Investment Film! Then let's talk about the newest K-drama hit, King the Land. K-pop stars Lee Jun-ho and Im Yoon-ah give us the usual rom-com beats so let's see if they have more in store. Due to Ham's insistence, pinanood din namin ang The Days, the Netflix series about the 2011 Fukushima nuclear disaster. Very serious stuff–t...

We're back with another SPOILER-FREE episode! Finally, nakabalik na si Ham from her long business trip and nakapag-record na kami in person. So yes, the podcast still exists and we had a lot to catch up on! Parang hindi nga lang masyadong masaya si Ham to be back sa magulo niyang home country but at least she finally got to watch Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse! Did she think it was worth Mike's hype? Or dapat ba hinintay na lang niya 'to online? Listen in and find out! Especially since w...

Isang Bala Ka Lang with Unbreak My Heart, Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse, Ted Lasso, and More

June 04, 2023 16:00 - 1 hour - 65.2 MB

SPOILER-FREE! When it counts! Well, someone hasn't moved on from Voltes V yet so we're still discussing Prince Zardoz's bedroom business, Boazanian helmet logistics, and potential spin-offs. But despite Ham still being away on her business trip, there is so much to get through! We have big things going on with Eat Bulaga, Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse, and Unbreak My Heart.
