Episode description
In today's episode, Christian Esguerra talks about the truth on the claim that Lapu-Lapu, widely considered as the first hero of the Philippines, was actually from Sulu in Mindanao, not Cebu. This claim was even made more prominent in a recent speech by Senator Bong Go on the 500th anniversary of the battle of Mactan. He talks with a Cebuano historian to try to correct all the erroneous claims about Lapu-Lapu.
He also tackles the latest Pulse Asia survey on the preferred candidates for the 2022 presidential polls. What does the opposition make of it as President Duterte's daughter, Davao City Mayor Sara Duterte-Carpio, topped the chart?
