00:00 (upbeat music)
00:02 (audience cheering)
00:13 (speaking in foreign language)
00:21 - And welcome to Fast Talk with Boy Abunda.
00:27 (speaking in foreign language)
00:31 (speaking in foreign language)
00:45 Vice Mayor Dodo Jaworski and Mikey Cuango Jaworski.
00:57 (audience cheering)
01:00 (speaking in foreign language)
01:07 - Good, Tito Boy.
01:15 - Yeah, it's been a while.
01:16 - It's good to see you again.
01:18 - Looking forward to this very, very short conversation,
01:21 20 minutes.
01:22 (speaking in foreign language)
01:24 - Well, that's what we've heard about Fast Talks.
01:27 (laughing)
01:28 - But thank you for being here.
01:29 (speaking in foreign language)
01:30 - Our pleasure, thank you for inviting us.
01:32 (speaking in foreign language)
01:36 - But you know, I wanna talk about this never-ending,
01:39 this constant courtship.
01:41 The I love yous, the I miss yous, the flowers, et cetera.
01:46 Who wants to tell us a story?
01:47 - I think Mikey should start.
01:49 (speaking in foreign language)
01:53 (speaking in foreign language)
01:57 - We've been married for almost 25 years.
02:16 - 25 years.
02:17 (speaking in foreign language)
02:19 - July 1999.
02:20 - Yes.
02:21 (laughing)
02:22 - For every, in every relationship, rather,
02:27 there's no such thing as a perfect match.
02:29 It's always a matter of how much work
02:32 you're willing to put in,
02:34 how much effort you're willing to put in.
02:37 (speaking in foreign language)
02:40 It doesn't just come naturally.
02:42 You have to really invest in it.
02:44 (speaking in foreign language)
02:45 You have to nurture it, right?
02:46 It's a decision that you make every day.
02:48 (speaking in foreign language)
02:50 I remember that story.
02:51 I was reading this article.
02:53 (speaking in foreign language)
02:57 - Oranges.
02:58 - Oranges, okay, yes, I got it.
03:00 - Oranges.
03:01 (speaking in foreign language)
03:05 (laughing)
03:06 (speaking in foreign language)
03:10 (speaking in foreign language)
03:13 (speaking in foreign language)
03:17 (speaking in foreign language)
03:21 - But I like the idea that, you know,
03:45 you end conversations today,
03:47 and for the last 25 years with,
03:50 I miss you and I love you.
03:52 (speaking in foreign language)
03:53 That it has to be expressed.
03:55 (speaking in foreign language)
03:59 Can you talk about your exes?
04:04 (laughing)
04:08 - Actually--
04:09 (speaking in foreign language)
04:10 - Actually, Mikey is actually friends
04:12 with some of my exes, and--
04:15 (speaking in foreign language)
04:19 It's actually nothing, not a big deal.
04:24 - No.
04:25 (speaking in foreign language)
04:27 I'm in very good company,
04:29 in the sense that--
04:31 (speaking in foreign language)
04:35 He has good taste.
04:37 (speaking in foreign language)
04:40 There are women that I respect,
04:42 that I admire, outside of our relationship.
04:46 (speaking in foreign language)
04:49 Also that, of course, Jack.
04:54 - But was it easy, was it difficult?
04:57 You know, you come from very big family names,
05:00 for lack of a better way of describing it.
05:02 (speaking in foreign language)
05:05 You're coming from a Bautista, Jaworski.
05:07 Not a lot of people know, actually, Dodot,
05:09 that you're related to the Revealias.
05:11 - Correct.
05:12 - That your mom is the daughter,
05:13 actually, of the former senator.
05:15 - Yes.
05:16 (speaking in foreign language)
05:20 - Of course, you have that overpowering,
05:24 overwhelming Jaworski brand, your dad.
05:29 (speaking in foreign language)
05:30 - My dad is, thank God, he's home.
05:32 He's been quite sickly lately.
05:35 Unfortunately, hasn't recovered fully from his ailments.
05:39 And also, unfortunately, up to this day,
05:42 we have not been able to exactly determine
05:45 what exactly is wrong with him.
05:47 - We will continue to pray.
05:49 I was talking to a sports writer
05:51 who's planning to do a book on Philippine sports.
05:54 (speaking in foreign language)
05:58 Without probably a chapter on,
06:01 I might call him Jawor,
06:02 I mean, because that's how everybody calls him.
06:06 (speaking in foreign language)
06:11 (speaking in foreign language)
06:15 - I thought you were representing the Philippines
06:17 in the International Olympic Committee.
06:20 (speaking in foreign language)
06:24 (speaking in foreign language)
06:27 - For IOC, by the IOC.
06:30 (speaking in foreign language)
06:34 So I represent that international organization here.
06:46 (speaking in foreign language)
06:47 - And other countries, perhaps?
06:47 - Well, I'm just assigned to the Philippines.
06:50 But not all countries have an IOC member.
06:53 (speaking in foreign language)
06:55 - How do you manage?
06:57 - It's difficult.
06:58 (speaking in foreign language)
07:02 She travels maybe 10, 12,
07:05 sometimes even more times a year.
07:07 (speaking in foreign language)
07:10 Well, now I'm very busy with my stint
07:26 in politics in the city of Pasig.
07:28 - And technology, I think, helps also.
07:30 - Yes, definitely.
07:31 - You're really in touch.
07:31 - It makes things a lot easier with,
07:34 you can see video chat and et cetera.
07:37 (speaking in foreign language)
07:41 - We're talking about Robbie Raff Renzo, right?
07:45 (speaking in foreign language)
07:48 Dad, what's your love story?
07:49 I mean, what highlight of your love story
07:52 do you tell your boys?
07:55 (speaking in foreign language)
07:58 - Highlight.
07:59 I think, actually, it's,
08:02 the highlight is the way they see me treat their mother.
08:06 I think, because it's not just a point in the relationship
08:10 or a point, a previous point in your lives
08:13 of what you've done,
08:14 but it's how you continuously treat your partner,
08:18 your wife, you know?
08:19 How to keep showing her that you love her,
08:22 how to assure her, make sure that she's secure
08:25 in the love that you show her,
08:27 and that the family is the most important thing
08:30 in your lives.
08:34 - Who holds the purse, Mike?
08:35 (speaking in foreign language)
08:39 (laughing)
08:41 After 25 years, I mean, going 25,
08:48 of having been together,
08:50 (speaking in foreign language)
08:54 (speaking in foreign language)
08:57 (laughing)
08:59 - You're touchy, you're very tactile.
09:00 - I'm, I think so, yeah.
09:03 More than her.
09:04 - You have to say something, Mike.
09:07 - It's true.
09:08 (laughing)
09:11 - It's true.
09:12 (speaking in foreign language)
09:15 I was going towards that discussion about,
09:17 you know, you're both very powerful presence,
09:19 (speaking in foreign language)
09:21 I was watching the two of you in the 90s,
09:23 (speaking in foreign language)
09:27 This is it, girl, I mean, you know?
09:31 (speaking in foreign language)
09:35 (speaking in foreign language)
09:36 - I think the partnership is so strong,
09:39 and it goes beyond a husband and wife,
09:42 like a romantic relationship.
09:44 (speaking in foreign language)
09:45 In every aspect of our lives, we're partners.
09:48 (speaking in foreign language)
09:52 - Right.
09:57 (speaking in foreign language)
10:00 We know expectations, we know the way each other thinks,
10:08 we support each other.
10:10 (speaking in foreign language)
10:13 - Yes, of course.
10:14 (speaking in foreign language)
10:18 (speaking in foreign language)
10:22 How we can support each other,
10:28 handle each other's good and bad moments.
10:32 (speaking in foreign language)
10:36 (laughing)
10:39 I mean, I think in an interview with, was that Pia?
10:42 (speaking in foreign language)
10:47 (speaking in foreign language)
10:50 There's a child.
11:02 (speaking in foreign language)
11:06 (speaking in foreign language)
11:10 (speaking in foreign language)
11:14 (speaking in foreign language)
11:22 - Take me for what I am.
11:33 - That's true.
11:34 (speaking in foreign language)
11:35 - Either you like me or you don't.
11:37 (speaking in foreign language)
11:39 - But it was really good.
11:41 (speaking in foreign language)
11:45 - When was the last time that (speaking in foreign language)
12:02 - Oh wow.
12:04 (speaking in foreign language)
12:08 (speaking in foreign language)
12:12 - We're always taping on location.
12:14 - Right.
12:14 - But of course,
12:15 (speaking in foreign language)
12:17 and promos and all of that,
12:19 it's still very familiar.
12:21 (speaking in foreign language)
12:25 - Yes, yes.
12:27 (laughing)
12:28 (speaking in foreign language)
12:30 - But we'll have to do fast talk now.
12:31 We have two minutes to do this and our time begins now.
12:35 Mikey, show jumping, show biz.
12:38 - Show jumping.
12:39 - Flowers, vegetables.
12:40 - Vegetables.
12:41 - Sugar, no sugar.
12:42 (speaking in foreign language)
12:46 - All day.
12:51 (laughing)
12:52 - Dodot, MVP, VIP.
12:54 - MVP.
12:56 - Defense, offense.
12:58 - Offense.
13:00 - Sports, public service.
13:01 - Public service.
13:03 - Dodot, Mikey is sweetest when?
13:06 - When she wants to be.
13:09 - Dodot, Mikey is sexiest when?
13:14 - Every day.
13:15 - Okay, very good.
13:16 - Both, Mikey and Dodot.
13:17 (speaking in foreign language)
13:21 (speaking in foreign language)
13:25 (speaking in foreign language)
13:49 (speaking in foreign language)
13:53 - Is that lights on or lights off?
14:05 - Lights off.
14:05 - Sure.
14:07 (laughing)
14:08 - Happiness or chocolates?
14:10 (speaking in foreign language)
14:12 (laughing)
14:14 - Best time for eating chocolates.
14:19 - Uh, any time that the chocolate is available.
14:22 - One promise to each other that you will never break.
14:26 (speaking in foreign language)
14:28 - I remember our wedding vows.
14:30 (speaking in foreign language)
14:34 (speaking in foreign language)
14:38 We will always hold each other's hand.
14:40 So for me, it's the support that I know
14:43 that I always have from him
14:45 and that I am always willing and happy to give.
14:49 (speaking in foreign language)
14:50 - Oh, that, you know, she and the family will always be
14:54 the most important thing in my life.
14:57 Of course, second to God being the center of our lives.
15:02 - And of course, around that is also public service.
15:04 - There you go.
15:05 (speaking in foreign language)
15:07 You know, (speaking in foreign language)
15:09 because I'm familiar with, you know,
15:10 you having four other siblings, girls,
15:13 and then you have three boys.
15:15 (speaking in foreign language)
15:18 (upbeat music)
15:39 (upbeat music)
15:42 (audience cheering)
15:46 (speaking in foreign language)
15:50 - Involved.
15:59 - I think we're supportive in a way.
16:02 - What if you don't like, (speaking in foreign language)
16:05 the potential girlfriends of your two?
16:07 Let's not talk about--
16:08 (speaking in foreign language)
16:10 - Actually, we--
16:11 (speaking in foreign language)
16:13 I think, you know, the communication among us is good.
16:17 (speaking in foreign language)
16:21 (speaking in foreign language)
16:31 - It's a different generation, Edodo.
16:32 It's a different generation.
16:34 - Every one of them react differently
16:37 according to their personality, then.
16:39 - Like Rafael, who is a boyfriend,
16:41 I saw a post where it looked like you were coaching--
16:45 - Caitlin. - Caitlin.
16:46 - Yeah, yeah, yeah. - Who gets it here on the show.
16:48 - Yes, we, yeah, I saw it.
16:50 - So obviously you like her.
16:52 - We get along.
16:53 - There.
16:54 - We enjoy her company.
16:57 (speaking in foreign language)
16:59 - Thank you.
17:00 (speaking in foreign language)
17:02 - So it's something that, what is it?
17:05 (speaking in foreign language)
17:07 Bring them over.
17:08 We want to know them.
17:10 - I think it was not, maybe when they were younger,
17:13 we used to say that.
17:14 (speaking in foreign language)
17:32 There's a closeness that also happens with our kids
17:36 when we know their friends.
17:37 (speaking in foreign language)
17:41 They will introduce them to us.
17:44 - But you have opinions as parents, right?
17:46 (speaking in foreign language)
17:49 You have your instinct while,
17:51 your instinctive reaction, for example,
17:53 (speaking in foreign language)
17:54 This is a small city.
17:55 We know families, et cetera.
17:57 Do you say your opinions?
17:59 - Of course.
18:01 But I think our kids, we brought them up in such a way
18:05 that when they do introduce these potential--
18:09 - Girlfriends.
18:10 - Friends or girlfriends to us,
18:11 they also observe the interaction
18:15 and they pick up from there.
18:18 And so far, I think we're both happy
18:23 that our kids are seeing these nice girls.
18:28 - Right.
18:29 - And I said, (speaking in foreign language)
18:33 While you're young, you have to remember
18:35 that you're in a relationship because you wanna be happy.
18:38 For as long as--
18:40 - And grow together.
18:42 - And you're supposed to support each other
18:44 and not hold each other down.
18:46 And if you can flourish,
18:49 or make the relationship flourish
18:51 based on the principles of mutual respect
18:54 and providing greater opportunities for each other,
18:58 reaching your full potential, then hey, why not?
19:01 (speaking in foreign language)
19:05 - Actually, they love to play.
19:26 - They love to play, although they never got
19:28 to that level of professional basketball.
19:31 - But equestrian, for example, my--
19:33 (speaking in foreign language)
19:37 - Oh my God.
19:47 - So he fell off the horse at three years old.
19:50 And I told Mikey, if you love your horse,
19:53 don't make your son ride
19:54 because I'll take out my anger on your horse.
19:57 (laughing)
19:59 (speaking in foreign language)
20:03 (speaking in foreign language)
20:05 I wanna be an actor, I wanna be in the business.
20:08 - I guess my interest,
20:11 but we just let them explore at this stage, I think.
20:16 - I think when they were younger,
20:18 they were asking about it.
20:21 (speaking in foreign language)
20:25 - And then--
20:28 - Then you can do what you want.
20:29 - We can talk forever, but our 20 minutes are up.
20:33 (speaking in foreign language)
20:34 (audience cheering)
20:37 (speaking in foreign language)
20:49 (speaking in foreign language)
20:53 - No, actually, my father was also known by the name Big Jay.
20:58 (speaking in foreign language)
21:03 - And we will always remember that, okay?
21:09 And I will not even try to dribble
21:11 because I'm in the presence of a Jaworski.
21:14 (speaking in foreign language)
21:15 - Thank you, thank you, thank you.
21:16 (audience cheering)
21:17 (speaking in foreign language)
21:21 - Be kind, make your Nana and Taday proud,
21:30 #SayThankYou.
21:32 Do one good thing a day and make this world a better place.
21:36 Goodbye for now, God bless.
21:37 (audience cheering)
