There are things we think we know about countries. But viral videos, TikTok and 24 hour news has made everything we understand about other places somewhat misinformed, twisted or just downright incorrect.
Which is why, the hosts of Cerca's Passport, Neil Innes and Andrés Bartos, have decided to take this misinformation and turn it on its head, upside down, the wrong way round and inside out.
Neil and Dré want to clear up some of the outright lies about nations we think we know by doing what they do best. Talking it out with someone who actually does know what they’re talking about.
Think of this as a kind of cultural mythbusters.
Welcome, to MisInfoNation.
Today, MisInfoNation embarks on a vibrant adventure to the beautiful archipelago of the Philippines alongside our excellent, silky-voiced friend—the gloriously named, effortlessly stylish, and always impeccably dressed—Randie Alegre Dumpit.
Together, we dive deep into the Philippines’ national obsession: basketball. Discover why hoops and hardwood courts can be found on nearly every street corner and how this sport, beloved nationwide, became an integral part of the Filipino identity.
So settle in, grab a snack, and let the silky voice of the wonderful Randie transport you straight into the heart and soul of the Philippines
