Description:

When we think of the ties that bind us, a nation of disparate people separated by seas and straits, spread out among 7,107 islands and speaking over 70 different languages and dialects, we tend to home in on food, religion and kinship. But perhaps the one thing we really all can relate to is good old Pinoy humor. Sometimes mababaw, often a clever play of words, our humor is side-splittingly punny and funny. It’s just da bess!

Flipping Pinoy humor with us is the legendary Rex Navarrete, one of the first Fil-Am comedians to become a mainstream international comedy sensation. He talks with surprising candor about how laughter heartens, heals, and humbles — not to mention unites — both audience and comic. Life is hard for many Filipinos. And whether you’re an immigrant in the US, or a Pinoy at home trying to get through the daily grind, laughter becomes the balm that keeps us sane. Tawa nalang ng tawa!
