00:00Welcome to Fast Talk with Boy Abunda.
00:16Good afternoon, Philippines and the whole world.
00:18Naytay Kapuso.
00:20Please take 20 minutes of your afternoon.
00:22I am Boy, and welcome to Fast Talk with Boy Abunda.
00:27To all the viewers on Facebook and YouTube,
00:29to the listeners of DZW, welcome to the program.
00:35This is the hot news for today's talk.
00:37We will be talking about John Estrada and Priscila May Vareles' marriage
00:42and the state of their relationship.
00:45Last night, John released a statement via Instagram
00:48that Priscila and him mutually agreed to take a break for quite some time.
00:53John also denied that they had a relationship with a woman named Ms. Lily Holman.
01:00A few hours later, Priscila's statement was released
01:03and she contradicted what John said.
01:06According to Priscila,
01:15And we remain married as of this time.
01:18Although Priscila agreed to what John said,
01:21that there is more to the story,
01:23she said that this is not the right time to share the details.
01:28Presently, Priscila is in Brazil with her son, John.
01:33She is meeting with a lawyer, but she assured everyone that she is okay.
01:40Last May, we talked to Priscila here in our program, Fast Talkin' Boy Abunda.
01:44In that particular interview, she said that after the rough patch that they went through last year,
01:50she already reached her limit.
01:54She said that John made amends.
01:56She said he promised to do his best.
02:00But John said that whatever happens from that point on, it's all on him.
02:05In her words, and I quote,
02:07You either go my way, or there is no way.
02:11End of quote.
02:13My reaction?
02:14I pray that this mess will be resolved.
02:18No matter how confusing sometimes what we are reading.
02:24But I pray that this will be resolved because there are children involved.
02:30I am not happy because of what happened to Priscila and John.
02:34But we will stop there.
02:36Because this is all we know.
02:38I'd like to share this attitude towards reacting to news.
02:42I don't want to pretend I know a lot.
02:44I don't want to pretend that I know the details of what they are going through.
02:47I don't want to pretend I know the details of the relationships.
02:51There are things that will remain private and personal to the both of them.
02:56But I continue to pray to God that this story will be resolved.
03:01Thank you very much.
03:02One of the most respected people in the entertainment industry.
03:13Knight Icapuzo, please welcome.
03:15The one and the only, Leo Martinez.
03:23Congressman, good afternoon.
03:26Good afternoon to you, boy.
03:28Your visit to our program, my first news is about the separation of John and Priscila.
03:34Congressman, do you have anything to say?
03:38I'm not used to that kind of separation.
03:41You're not used to it?
03:42I don't have experience with women like that.
03:48My parents are strict.
03:51My parents said that my womanhood is very limited.
03:57Only 18 to 23 years old is allowed for me.
04:01Congressman?
04:02Yes, it's limited.
04:04It's limited?
04:05I can't say anything about it.
04:07You can't relate?
04:08I can't relate.
04:09The age bracket is limited?
04:11Yes, it's very far.
04:12Are you a congressman?
04:13I don't have a conscience because of what you're saying now.
04:16Does a congressman have a conscience?
04:21You're right there.
04:23Please make yourself comfortable.
04:25Welcome to the program, Leo.
04:27Thank you very much.
04:31Thank you.
04:33It's been a while since we've seen our friends.
04:39This is our kind of friendship.
04:42You don't see it often, but it's there.
04:44It's a certain kind of presence.
04:46Like your wife, Gina.
04:47I hope you're watching, Gina.
04:49My love for your wife and kids.
04:52Thank you very much.
04:53But let's start here.
04:55Before we talk about Congressman Manhit Manahog,
04:59your advocacy is very good.
05:01This is where I grew up.
05:07Talk about it.
05:09Briefly, the mission and vision of this campaign
05:15is to change the culture of negativity in social media
05:20into something positive.
05:22Our social media is very toxic.
05:26It was invented so that we can be together
05:30and not get angry.
05:32Anyway, if we make it positive through something,
05:37if we talk about our growth,
05:40so that we don't talk about differences,
05:44we need to grow a lot.
05:47I hope that will dominate social media.
05:51So how is it going to be done?
05:53For example, I'm from Borongan, Eastern.
05:56So I grew up in my hometown.
05:59We have delicious lechon.
06:01For example, that.
06:03I'll teach you how to visualize that.
06:07Make a video.
06:09There.
06:10With what?
06:11Camera?
06:12Telephone?
06:13Cellphone.
06:14The first workshop is how to make a simple video
06:19using my cellphone.
06:21Raymond Red taught us how to do that.
06:25Oh, that's beautiful.
06:27It's understandable.
06:29We want to democratize filmmaking.
06:33That's beautiful.
06:34So that we can use it to promote our creative industry.
06:39I think that we need content materials.
06:44We hear that a lot.
06:46Yes.
06:47Content, right?
06:48This is the perfect content material.
06:51What we're promoting here in our town,
06:54that's what we'll put on our cellphone,
06:58on our social media.
07:00I understand.
07:01For example, I'm from Borongan, Eastern.
07:03I have a Facebook page.
07:05I'll be a part of your advocacy.
07:08That's beautiful.
07:10I'm promoting our lechon, hamurawon.
07:15In the middle of our town, there's a beautiful place.
07:18I'll be taught by the great director, Raymond Red,
07:22how to make a video that I'll use on my Facebook.
07:26Yes.
07:27We've done it already in Batangas Province,
07:33in Cainta, and in Marikina.
07:36It's a success.
07:37Yes.
07:38You'll see the results of what they did.
07:42We did a workshop on how to make a 2-3-minute video.
07:50We said, how do you learn to write?
07:58Word.
07:59Right.
08:00You'll use words.
08:02Here, word equals shot.
08:05Okay.
08:07You'll use shot to make a sentence.
08:14That's it.
08:15What's beautiful about this project,
08:18and I hope the government supports this,
08:23is that you're not only democratizing filmmaking,
08:28but you're also changing storytelling.
08:32Right.
08:33Instead of fighting, bashing, and being negative,
08:37what we're telling is what we're promoting in our places.
08:41Yes.
08:42And you end up using, you're proud of what you are,
08:46of our galling and dangal.
08:51Right.
08:52What is good, what is beautiful, what is noble in our country.
08:55That's beautiful.
08:56One time, we'll talk about this, but let's support it.
09:00To our friends who want to know the details,
09:03do you have a platform where they can go, Leo?
09:06Yes, we're still building our pages.
09:11I'll present this to DTI,
09:15who's in charge of the creative industry development.
09:18Okay.
09:19We'll keep that in mind when we read this.
09:24I want to go to your being a mentor,
09:26because you're an actor, you're a director,
09:28and you're one of the best.
09:29You come from the theater,
09:30and it's true what I said,
09:32you're one of the best in the industry.
09:35You mentor actors.
09:37Yes.
09:38And you basically teach the Eric Morris method.
09:41Yes.
09:42My title is No Acting, Please.
09:44I've always wanted to know that.
09:47What does that mean?
09:49For example, I'm Leo.
09:51I want to be an artist.
09:52Okay.
09:53Now, Direk, how is this No Acting, Please?
09:57Okay.
09:58No acting, please.
09:59The first thing I'll tell you,
10:01acting is not thinking, it is feeling.
10:05Acting is not thinking.
10:07It is feeling.
10:08It is feeling.
10:09Okay.
10:10So, therefore, there's no right or wrong.
10:12Mmm.
10:13Whatever you feel.
10:15Okay.
10:16So, for example, Direk,
10:17give me a scene that's just me,
10:19and I'll do it.
10:20Okay.
10:21If you say,
10:22my bunny lies over the ocean,
10:25that's your line.
10:26What?
10:27My bunny lies over the ocean.
10:29My bunny lies over the ocean.
10:32Okay.
10:33It lies over the ocean.
10:34Now,
10:35In Tagalog, Direk.
10:36Oh, ah.
10:37For example,
10:38One day, I went to the market.
10:41Okay.
10:42One day, I went to the market.
10:43Okay.
10:44To talk to a person.
10:45One day, I went to the market to talk to a person.
10:48Okay.
10:49So, that's your line.
10:50Yes.
10:51That's your line.
10:52Okay.
10:53Now, I want,
10:54what feeling do you want?
10:55Mmm.
10:56Excited.
10:57Oh, excited.
10:58Sir,
10:59what events or events
11:03will excite you?
11:05Oh, when I go to my show,
11:08and I'm really happy.
11:10That's what I remember.
11:11Okay.
11:12Say your line now.
11:13One day, I went to the market
11:15to talk to a person.
11:16That's it.
11:17Oh, like that?
11:18That's it.
11:20Oh, like that.
11:21Feeling.
11:22Feeling.
11:23Feeling.
11:24Not the objective,
11:26like what we learned back then.
11:28The objective,
11:30you have to use your brain.
11:32Okay.
11:33That's hard.
11:34You have to go around.
11:35This, it's about feeling.
11:36I go to the market,
11:38so it depends on me.
11:39Correct.
11:40If you want to be sad,
11:41who do you want to be sad with?
11:48My mother passed away in 2019.
11:50Okay.
11:51Now,
11:52I go to the market
11:53to talk to a person.
11:57Oh, like that?
11:59Yes.
12:00You just have to memorize it.
12:02You don't have to memorize the objective.
12:05I memorized it.
12:06I even told my mother.
12:07Of course,
12:08because acting is personal.
12:09It is.
12:10Of course.
12:11It's very, very personal.
12:12It depends on what you feel.
12:13And if you,
12:15the exercise of the actor
12:17is you just express everything
12:19that you feel.
12:20Oh my God, I'm learning.
12:21And you see,
12:22you become healthier
12:23because unexpressed feelings
12:25are toxins in your body.
12:27So you have to express everything.
12:29Are actually released.
12:30That's what I think.
12:31That's one of the factors.
12:34I learned a lot.
12:35But Leo will do fast talk.
12:37We'll do fast talk
12:38the Eric Morris way.
12:39Okay.
12:40This is fast talk.

14:24I'm the one who says it.
14:26The controversies, you let me say it.
14:29Don't get involved in that.
14:33Leo, you're a good listener.
14:36How did Congressman Manjik Manaog start?
14:40I'm really interested.
14:41We also learned that Leo used to do voicing and dub.
14:47I also want to know, is this a myth or is this real?
14:51That if you have a sense of humor, your sex appeal is strong.
14:56The answer to the return of Fast Talk with Boy Abuna.
15:00Back to the show.
15:01The Untold Story of Jillian from My Mother, My Story.
15:05This Sunday, July 21, 2 PM.
15:09And don't miss the comedy primetime weekend block.
15:13It means Pepito Manaloto, Running Man Philippines, and Bubblegum.
15:18Thank you very much.
15:20There was a time that you used to do comedy.
15:22Yes.
15:23You used to do comedy.
15:24Yes.
15:25You used to do comedy.
15:26Yes.
15:27Thank you very much.
15:28There was a time that you used to do voicing.
15:31You even dubbed, I think, right?
15:33Yes.
15:34When I started in the movies, I got a dubber.
15:41What I dubbed was the English dubbing of the movies
15:46that were shown in Okinawa, the Congolese, and Hawaii.
15:50I was always the voice of Joseph Estrada.
15:53The English dubbing.
15:54All of the English dubbings were done by me.
15:57What I want to say to the kids,
16:00I told Leo off-cam,
16:02your body of work in the theater is very impressive.
16:09It's so beautiful.
16:10I was reading your materials last night.
16:12I said, Leo really did all of this.
16:14Yes.
16:15Equus, Caligula, all the big, big theatrical roles.
16:20But I'm just so happy.
16:22So I meant it when I said I am honored to be in your presence.
16:25But let's talk about, just quickly,
16:27two minutes now,
16:28the congressman, Manik Manaug.
16:31How did that come to be?
16:32In 1989, we couldn't get a congressman to interview us.
16:38Mr. Shuley, John Urbano, said,
16:42you do it.
16:43I said, okay.
16:45I'll invent a character,
16:47I want to use Puntung Batangueño.
16:52He said, okay.
16:54So I asked Nani Perez,
16:57who was a congressman at the time,
16:58and Bono Adasa,
17:00the combination of Bono Adasa and Manik Manaug.
17:05You'd think he'd know it all,
17:08but he's stupid.
17:12He's so good at it, but he's stupid.
17:14Okay, so that's how it was born.
17:16They say, you talk to women, you talk to men.
17:20You always hear this line,
17:22sex appeal is about sense of humor.
17:25Is that true?
17:27I don't know.
17:31I'm not a woman.
17:33But even men,
17:35they would say, I like funny women.
17:37She makes me laugh.
17:40Not me.
17:41I don't like funny women.
17:43Really? You don't like funny women?
17:45Okay.
17:46You like them strong?
17:49Maybe.
17:50No, you know why?
17:51Because we're talking about your wife, Gina, for example.
17:53Our friend, Shiree.
17:54Yes.
17:55Right?
17:56How was your relationship before our friend, Shiree, passed on?
18:00Before?
18:02We were very close.
18:04Even Gina and Shiree are close.
18:06Are good friends.
18:08I'll show you a picture.
18:10There.
18:11Beautiful.
18:13Happy, happy, happy life.
18:15And my children, they grew up.
18:17They're siblings.
18:19Every time you're asked in interviews,
18:21how many children do you have?
18:22You always say, 2, 1, 3.
18:232, 1, 3.
18:24Two in the front, one in the back.
18:26It's that simple?
18:27It's that simple.
18:28But I don't...
18:29Because it's my fault.
18:31I don't want to add that,
18:32to become a hypocrite.
18:34That's right.
18:35I don't want that.
18:36Tom Grissman.
18:37Yes.
18:38Although Tom Grissman understands that.
18:41Okay.
18:42Last question, Leo.
18:44Quickly, what's the difference
18:46between acting on a board,
18:48on television,
18:49in movies,
18:50and now in socmed?
18:52Well, there's no difference.
18:55As an artist,
18:56you need to distinguish where you're acting.
18:59What platform?
19:00Yes.
19:01In theater,
19:02you'll use something different
19:04than in movies.
19:06In theater,
19:07there needs to be tension.
19:09So,
19:10the exercises there
19:11are tension exercises.
19:12But in movies,
19:13and on television,
19:14it's relaxing.
19:15Give it a line.
19:16For example,
19:17I love you.
19:18In theater,
19:19how would you say that?
19:20You need to position it first.
19:23If there's proscenium.
19:25Because it's proscenium.
19:27That's the difference.
19:29There's no proscenium
19:30when we're talking.
19:32He'll adjust there
19:34so he can get me.
19:36I love you.
19:37So, it's different.
19:38It depends on where you are.
19:39In theater,
19:40there's tension.
19:42Because there's tension.
19:44It's larger than life.
19:46Alright.
19:47This is life itself.
19:49That's right.
19:50Leo, thank you very much.
19:52Alright.
19:53Thank you.
19:54The one and the only,
19:56Leo Martinez.
19:57I hope there's a long time
19:59but that's how life is.
20:01Right?
20:02Congressman, thank you very much.
20:03Thank you very much.
20:04Please give Leo a round of applause.
20:06Thank you very much.
20:07Thank you, Kapusa,
20:08for continuing with us
20:09in your daily activities.
20:11Be kind.
20:12Make your mother and father proud
20:13and say thank you.
20:14Do one good thing a day
20:16and make this world a better place.
20:17Goodbye for now.
20:18God bless.
20:19Chris Jazzler.
20:20Thank you.
