‘Christmas In Action’: ‘CIA with BA’ celebrates Christmas with a special episode

“Kaya tayo ‘in action,’ kasi ‘action speaks louder than words.”

“[This is the] joy of Christmas. Nung unang punta nila dito, talagang parang magpapatayan.. [tapos] talagang I’m so offended when I see yung lack of respect sa parents…” said Sen. Pia Cayateno.

For his part, award-winning host Boy Abunda shared: “Ang sarap ng pakiramdam at ang sarap isipin na kahit sa munting paraan ng ating programa ay naging daan para maging magkaibigan ang mga hindi nag-uusap. Kahit man lamang po doon ay fulfilled tayo.”

The episode also became an instant concert treat to the Mariteam and its viewers with performances from 4th Impact, young violinist Shammah Alegado, Bugoy Drilon and Kapuso star Rita Daniela.

“What a better way to celebrate Christmas with people we work with and people who we have come to know as family,” Pia expressed.

To close the show, Kuya Alan reminded that “even without written law, may tinatawag na natural law. Sinasabi parati, ‘dun tayo sa tama,’ ‘di ba? Even without ‘yung batas na pinapasa ng mga legislator, alam naman natin kung ano ‘yung tama at mali.”

“And while we wish you a Merry Merry Christmas, tama na mahalin ang Diyos, tama na mahalin ang kapwa,” he said.

Nominated as Best Talk Show at the 45th Catholic Mass Media Awards, ‘CIA with BA’ carries on the legacy of Senator Rene Cayetano, the late father of the sibling senators. The senior Cayetano was a renowned lawyer who gained fame through his radio and TV program 'Compañero y Compañera,' which aired from 1997 to 2001.

WORLD-CLASS MOVIE NA ' MALLARI ' NI PIOLO PASCUAL IBANG LEVEL ANG HANDOG NA KATATAKOTAN AT GULATAN NGAYONG DECEMBER 25 SA MGA SINEHAN

Ibang klaseng premiere night ang aking nasaksihan last wednesday evening sa Cinema 3 ng SM Megamall. Ito ay ang world premiere ng inaabangan at pinag-uusapang world-class movie'ng MALLARI na pinagbibidahan ni Piolo Pascual na official entry ngayong taon ng Mentorque Productions ni Bryan Dy at idi-distribute naman ng Warner Brothers International.

Mula sa red carpet entrance ng cinema hanggang sa loob ay pinaghandaan ng bonggang-bongga ng Mentorque at well-organized lahat. Bumaha ng LED at worl-class ang datingan nito na ang sarap sa mata dahil mararamdaman mong espesyal na gabi ito para sa mga naimbitahang mapanood sa silverscreen ang pelikula ni Derick Cabrido.

Full support ang mga kaibigan ni Papa Piolo sa kanya tulad na lamang ng ilang kilalang personalidad sa entertainment business lije Maam Malou Santos ng Star Cinema at Vice Ganda.

 Kabogera ang bisita ng Mentorque that night at kitang-kita kong very happy to the highest level si Bryan Dy at ang buong produksiyon nito.

Like what i told you sa trailer palang ng movie, world-class na world-class ito. Mula sa mahuhusay na pagganap ng lahat ng bida sa pelikula, mula sa screenplay, editing, production design, sound, lahat-lahat ay pupurihin mo ang pelikula.

Pamatay lalo ang katatakutan at gulatan sa movie mula umpisa hanggang katapusan. Ganda nung twist na ginawa lalo na ang pagganap ni Piolo sa tatlong katauhan niya sa pelikula at nangangamoy Best Actor siya sa pelikula. 

Masasabi kong ginastusan ang movie. Sobrang gastos kaya naman lumabas na napakaganda ito at sulit sa ibabayad ninyong 370 pesos sa mga sinehan.

Wala akong maipintas sa pelikula. Grabe. 

Congrats sa buong production staff, cast and crew ang MALLARI!

The best film this year! Bukod-tangi! Ibang level ang lahat! Sobrang nakaka-proud ang pelikulang ito! Unahin niyo ng panoorin sa mga sinehan simula ngayong December 25!!!

' CIA WITH BA ' IS IT RIGHT TO NOT GIVE TO CHRISTMAS CAROLERS?

CIA with BA:’ Is it right to NOT give to Christmas carolers?

With Christmas already in the air, a very timely question arose in the ‘Yes or No’ segment of ‘CIA with BA’ in its episode on Sunday, December 3.

Richard Knows of the ‘Mariteam’ narrated an unfortunate but ridiculous story that happened one Christmas season with his group when they went caroling in their community.

“Every year po kasi, nangangaroling kami. Mayroong may magandang bahay sa amin, nangaroling kami [at] pinapasok kami… tapos pinakanta kami nung may-ari. Nag-perform kami, sumayaw-sayaw pa, pina-tumbling pa ‘ko, daming pinagawa sa akin,” he shared.

“Alam niyo po, ang ending, hindi po kami binigyan. Tama po ba ‘yon?” Richard asked.

“It’s a very interesting question. Kung ako [ang] judge, ang sasabihin ko, oobligahin ko ‘yung may-ari na may ibigay,” said lawmaker host Alan Peter Cayetano as he reacted. “Kung ang tanong ay ‘may obligasyon ba?’ Yes!”

Kuya Alan elaborated: “Bakit? Kasi kung nangangaroling sa harap ng bahay mo [at] sabihin mo, ‘next time!,’ ‘thank you!,’ wala kang obligasyon, wala naman kayong kontrata e. ‘Di ba?”

“Pero kung pinapasok sa bahay at nagrequest pa ng kanta… ‘yung nagca-caroling ka bahay-bahay, everyone knows na ibig sabihin – whether for yourself or for charity – humihingi ka. So for me, abuso ng kanyang karapatan na pinapasok ka tapos pinakanta ka pa, [tapos] walang binigay,” he continued.

Alan also explained there is a difference between those who sing Christmas carols at certain places and those who do house-to-house caroling.

“By the way, iba ‘yung singing Christmas carols, iba ‘yung caroling. Kasi ‘yung mga, halimbawa, nasa public park, nagco-concert sila, ginagawa ‘yon para matuwa [ang mga] tao o kaya ‘yung mismong mall binabayaran sila, they’re singing Christmas carols to entertain, to make [people] happy. Wala kang obligasyon maglagay (magbigay),” he said.

“Pupunta sila, let’s say sa mga ospital – sa mga bata o sa matatanda – kakanta, they don’t expect anything. Hindi sila biglang magsasabi na, ‘O, mga pasyente, magbigay kayo!’ Kuya Alan added.

‘CIA with BA’ is now on its fourth season since it premiered on February 5 this year.

The program continues the legacy of Senator Rene Cayetano, the late father of the sibling senators. The senior Cayetano was a renowned lawyer who gained fame through his radio and TV program 'Compañero y Compañera,' which aired from 1997 to 2001.

' CIA WITH BA ' TAMA BANG HINDI MAGBIGAY SA MGA NANGANGAROLING?

‘CIA with BA:’ Tama bang HINDI magbigay sa mga nangangaroling?

Tunay ngang nasa hangin na ang Kapaskuhan at napaka-timely ng isang katanungan na lumabas sa ‘Yes or No’ segment ng ‘CIA with BA’ sa episode nitong Linggo, Disyembre 3.

Ibinahagi ni Richard Knows ng ‘Mariteam’ ang isang nakakatawa ngunit ‘di kanais-nais na pangyayari sa pangangaroling niya kasama ang kanyang grupo.

“Every year po kasi, nangangaroling kami. Mayroong may magandang bahay sa amin, nangaroling kami [at] pinapasok kami… tapos pinakanta kami nung may-ari. Nag-perform kami, sumayaw-sayaw pa, pina-tumbling pa ‘ko, daming pinagawa sa akin,” kwento niya.

“Alam niyo po, ang ending, hindi po kami binigyan. Tama po ba ‘yon?” tanong ni Richard.

“It’s a very interesting question. Kung ako [ang] judge, ang sasabihin ko, oobligahin ko ‘yung may-ari na may ibigay,” saad ng host at mambabatas na si Alan Peter Cayetano. “Kung ang tanong ay ‘may obligasyon ba?’ Yes!”

Idinetalye ni Kuya Alan: “Bakit? Kasi kung nangangaroling sa harap ng bahay mo [at] sabihin mo, ‘next time!,’ ‘thank you!,’ wala kang obligasyon, wala naman kayong kontrata e. ‘Di ba?”

“Pero kung pinapasok sa bahay at nagrequest pa ng kanta… ‘yung nagca-caroling ka bahay-bahay, everyone knows na ibig sabihin – whether for yourself or for charity – humihingi ka. So for me, abuso ng kanyang karapatan na pinapasok ka tapos pinakanta ka pa, [tapos] walang binigay,” pagpapatuloy niya.

Ipinaliwanag rin ni Kuya Alan na magkaiba ang mga kumakanta ng Christmas carols sa mga tiyak na lugar at ang mga nagba-bahay-bahay para mangaroling.

“By the way, iba ‘yung singing Christmas carols, iba ‘yung caroling. Kasi ‘yung mga, halimbawa, nasa public park, nagco-concert sila, ginagawa ‘yon para matuwa [ang mga] tao o kaya ‘yung mismong mall binabayaran sila, they’re singing Christmas carols to entertain, to make [people] happy. Wala kang obligasyon maglagay (magbigay),” aniya.

“Pupunta sila, let’s say sa mga ospital – sa mga bata o sa matatanda – kakanta, they don’t expect anything. Hindi sila biglang magsasabi na, ‘O, mga pasyente, magbigay kayo!’ dagdag pa ni Kuya Alan.

Kasalukuyang nasa ika-apat na season ang ‘CIA with BA’ mula noong umere ito noong Pebrero 5, 2023.

Ang ‘CIA with BA’ ay pagpapatuloy ng nasimulang misyon ni Senador Rene Cayetano, ang yumaong ama ng magkapatid na senador. Si Senador Rene ang orihinal na abogadong nagbibigay ng legal advice sa telebisyon at siyang host ng sikat na programang ‘Compañero y Compañera’ noong 1997 hanggang 2001.
