Catch the podcast hosted by Erwan Heussaff, Nico Bolzico, and Jaz Reyes on Samsung’s official Spotify, YouTube, and Facebook pages

Step into your Ultra Self with “Unfold Your Story,” where curiosity meets candor, and every conversation sparks insight. Presented by Samsung, the podcast offers a deep dive into honest, and thought-provoking dialogues with creators, experts, and cultural voices shaping the way we live, think, and create content.

Hosted by #TeamGalaxy’s Erwan Heussaff, Jaz Reyes, and Nico Bolzico and featuring other creatives from #TeamGalaxy, the episodes dive into real, relatable conversations about personal growth, self-discovery, and the role of innovation not only in content creation but in everyday life. Listeners will also discover how Galaxy AI—Samsung’s suite of intelligent tools—empowers the guests to unlock their full potential.

With countless hours of content consumed by Filipinos every day, success can seem instant—effortless, even. But behind the lens lies a deeper story: one of grit, growth, and the unseen hustle. From uncovering your “why,” carving a path that’s uniquely yours to staying authentic in a world of trends, “Unfold Your Story” is a must-listen podcast that invites listeners to explore what it truly means to be their Ultra Self — the most authentic, empowered, and creative version of who they are.

Unfolding the secrets in finding purpose beyond passion, the premiere episode tackles how to recover from burnout, fight imposter syndrome and reignite the creative spark that often dims in the face of pressure and perfectionism relevant to listeners in their late 20s to 40s. It features Life Coach Mara Banson who will share insights in navigating “new adulthood,” while Jun Guevara, Head of Mobile Experience at Samsung Electronics Philippines Corporation, shared how the brand supports people through this transformative life stage.  

It also tackles how Galaxy AI features like Gemini Live, elevate productivity through natural conversations that adapt to everyday life. With Gemini Live, users can interact freely and access real-time information, upload images, or use the camera for instant suggestions. On the Galaxy Z Fold7, one of Samsung’s latest foldable innovations, these features come to life, showing how Samsung’s most advanced devices are built to integrate seamlessly into any lifestyle.

In Episode 2, the spotlight turns to Janine Gutierrez, an award-winning actress who has earned Best Actress honors at both the FAMAS and Gawad Urian Awards, and was recognized as a Rising Star at the 20th New York Asian Film Festival. Coming from a prominent showbiz family, Janine opens up about the pressures of legacy, the journey of carving her own path and shares how someone can build their own identity and bloom on their own terms, even when it doesn’t follow the expected path. 

The podcast also highlights how modern tools, including Galaxy AI, are transforming creative processes. Whether it’s running lines with voice assistants or using AI to simulate a character’s tone and delivery, technology is becoming an invaluable partner in artistic and personal development.

In the food content sphere, Ryan Reyes, better known as Ninong Ry, is always known for his relatable, light, and humorous content that ranges from classic Filipino dishes to quirky kitchen hacks. He’s a chef, vlogger, and digital creator who has captured millions of followers and created a loyal community of “inaanak,” with his no-frills, laugh-out-loud approach to cooking. 

But staying relevant and creative is difficult. In the final episode, Ninong Ry opens up about what it takes to remain inspired, honest, and raw in a space where trends and algorithms often dominate, and where innovation is a constant demand for creators like him.

Directed by Edgar Wright (Baby Driver, Scott Pilgrim vs. the World, Shaun of the Dead) and starring Powell (Top Gun: Maverick, Twisters), The Running Man tells of a near-future society where the top-rated show on television is one called The Running Man – a deadly competition where contestants, known as Runners, must survive 30 days while being hunted by professional assassins, with every move broadcast to a bloodthirsty public and each day bringing a greater cash reward. Desperate to save his sick daughter, working-class Ben Richards (Powell) is convinced by the show’s charming but ruthless producer, Dan Killian (Josh Brolin), to enter the game as a last resort. But Ben’s defiance, instincts, and grit turn him into an unexpected fan favorite – and a threat to the entire system. As ratings skyrocket, so does the danger, and Ben must outwit not just the Hunters, but a nation addicted to watching him fall. Also starring Colman Domingo, William H. Macy, Lee Pace and Michael Cera.

Century Tuna’s “Saving Our Seas” unites over 8,000 volunteers across the Philippines for cleaner seas

 

Representatives from Century Pacific Food Inc. (CPFI), HOPE, brand partners, and volunteers join forces for the “Saving Our Seas” International Coastal Cleanup Day activity in Anilao, Batangas, one of six cleanup sites held nationwide.

Century Tuna, the Philippines’ No. 1 tuna brand, returns for the 3rd year of its award-winning “Saving Our Seas” campaign, championing cleaner seas with greater impact. 2025 marks a turning point as the movement expands to six sites nationwide, further driving plastic circular economy and marine conservation across the country.

The Saving Our Seas campaign gained new momentum this year during the fan meet of brand ambassador Park Seo Joon, where fans from across the Philippines took part by donating plastic bottles to support the campaign. Building on this inspiring start, Century Tuna is expanding the campaign nationwide by rallying communities, fostering volunteerism, and empowering more Filipinos to take part in protecting our seas and marine life.

To celebrate this year’s International Coastal Cleanup Day, Century Tuna revitalized their campaign initiatives with a more ambitious goal. 

Volunteers and divers are working together to safeguard marine life and preserve the oceans.

Started as a single coastal cleanup in Batangas in 2023, it quickly grew into a nationwide movement. This year, the campaign expanded its reach, organizing and supporting coastal cleanup drives across Manila, Batangas, Subic, Davao, Zamboanga, and General Santos City. To cap it off, the campaign attracted over 8,200 volunteers, a significant jump from last year’s 205 volunteers. The volunteers came from various groups such as the local government units, Porto Novo, The Asri, and Pier Uno group of divers, the Philippine Marine Corps, Century Tuna Superbods, employees of Century Pacific Food Inc. (CPFI), and like-minded friends.

Volunteers from Manila, General Santos City, Davao, Batangas, and Zamboanga have united under Century Tuna’s 'Saving Our Seas'  campaign.

“Our product comes from the sea, and without healthy oceans, we have nothing,” said Mr. Carlo Endaya, Century Pacific Food Inc.’s Vice President and General Manager of the Branded Tuna Division. “This isn’t just about a one-day cleanup, but about raising awareness and creating something sustainable through Aling Tindera and the plastic circular economy. Each piece of plastic collected can be transformed into livelihood opportunities, while keeping it out of the ocean,” he added.

Mr. Carlo Endaya, Vice President and General Manager of the Branded Tuna Division, CPFI, delivers his message of gratitude and commitment to marine preservation.

The campaign targets a 33% increase in plastic collection this year, powered by Century Tuna’s strength in partnerships. From its roots with HOPE’s Aling Tindera waste-to-cash program, the initiative has expanded to more like-minded organizations and individuals, reinforcing its commitment to the plastic circular economy and marine conservation.

“We are truly thankful because Century Tuna is one of HOPE’s biggest sponsors here. Their support is a huge help to our agri-fishery sector and to the livelihood of our communities. With 29 sites across Mabini, from resorts to local communities, this partnership creates a real impact for our people,” said Ms. Caroline Beloso, Friends of HOPE Inc.’s Field Coordinator in Mabini, Batangas. 

In Mabini, Batangas, HOPE’s Aling Tindera representatives came together to clear plastic waste from the coast.

Century Tuna also took part in new partner initiatives, including joining the cleanup activities of the Department of Environment and Natural Resources, the Department of Public Services of the City of Manila, and the Subic Bay Metropolitan Authority (SBMA). The campaign also partnered with other brands such as Shakey’s, Vita Coco, Beach Hut, and Peri-Peri to further strengthen the initiative.

CPFI hands over trash bins to fisherfolk in Mabini, Batangas as a symbol of their commitment to protecting marine ecosystems and helping save our seas.

All these combined efforts resulted in collecting 1,386 kilograms of plastic waste, a significant growth from last year’s 357 kilograms of plastic waste.

In just three years, Saving Our Seas has collected over 100 metric tons of waste, growing from one site to six and becoming a nationwide movement. More than a cleanup, this is about building community, creating livelihoods, and working together for a cleaner, healthier, and more sustainable future. With everyone’s commitment, we are confident this will be our most impactful International Coastal Cleanup yet,” shared Mr. Ray Guinoo, Century Pacific Food Inc.’s Assistant Vice President and Marketing Director for Local Tuna Operations.

Ray Guinoo, Director of Marketing at CPFI, thanks volunteers and reaffirms Century Tuna’s commitment to protecting the seas.

The campaign entered its 3rd year with a huge success, amassing a huge number of volunteers and raising its partnership initiatives. The “Saving Our Seas” campaign is a testament to Century Tuna’s strong commitment to becoming the torchbearer of marine protection in the country.

Launched in 2023, Century Tuna’s “Saving Our Seas” campaign aims to put into the spotlight the problems of plastic pollution in marine biodiversity by reinforcing the idea of Plastic Circular Economy through coastal and reef cleanup activities together with an environmental education program in schools.

ONE BATTLE AFTER ANOTHER Packs A Punch (Film review)

By: Edgar Allan E. Yu

In his latest film, "One Battle After Another," director Paul Thomas Anderson masterfully intertwines a gripping political thriller with poignant family drama, creating a cinematic experience that is both intense and thought-provoking. The action scenes are nothing short of electrifying, punctuated by moments of dark comedy that add depth to the narrative without undermining the tension.

Leonardo DiCaprio delivers yet another stellar performance as an ex-revolutionary determined to shield his daughter from the chaos surrounding them. His nuanced portrayal captures the internal struggles of a man caught between his past and his responsibilities as a father. Opposite him, Sean Penn shines as a truly menacing villain, embodying the very essence of threat and manipulation with chilling precision.

Chase Infinity makes her film debut as DiCaprio's daughter and is nothing short of a revelation. Her performance adds layers to the story, showcasing vulnerability while also reflecting strength in an unforgiving world.

Visually, "One Battle After Another" is stunning; particularly noteworthy is the breathtaking chase scene set against the rolling hills of the desert road. Overall, this film is not just enjoyable; it's an experience that resonates long after the credits roll. Don't miss out on this remarkable blend of action and emotion—it's sure to be one of 2025's standout films !
