Hello everyone, and welcome to another episode of Once and Always a Fanboy with me your host Chris Cantada Force. My next guests are a true force in the P-Pop scene — bold, fierce, and unapologetically themselves. I’ve had the honor of crossing paths with them way back when they first debuted. We collaborated on a YouTube video back when I was still producing fan films, and I had such a great time getting to know them. And now? They've blown up into one of the hottest girl groups in the Philippines

Hello everyone, and welcome to another episode of Once and Always a Fanboy. Today’s guest is the kind of artist who’s just as comfortable behind the mic as he is in front of a camera. He’s studied music seriously, worked with some heavy hitters, and somehow still manages to keep it real on social media. And right now, he’s here in the Philippines, connecting with fans and promoting his brand new single, Deja Vu. Whether you’ve streamed his songs or seen his Tik-Toks online—there’s a good chance you

Hello everyone, and welcome to another episode of Once and Always a Fanboy! I first met this next guest at Star Wars Celebration VI in 2012. I was a fan of Toy Hunter and pretty much had a collector’s heart attack when I saw him. We’ve stayed connected through the Holonet—aka social media—proof that sometimes, the real treasures aren’t toys, they’re friends you meet along the way. Now, he’s finally here, fresh out of the carbonite and ready to chat. Fangirls and fanboys, Jordan Hembrough!

Welcome to another episode of Once and Always a Fanboy with your host, Chris Cantada Force. My guest today is someone I met in the most unexpected but awesome way—at a geek convention. He’s a pro athlete who’s just as passionate about pop culture as he is about putting up points on the court. As a key player for the Meralco Bolts in the PBA and a proud representative of the Philippines overseas, he’s consistently brought his A-game. And just recently, he added PBA Finals MVP to his growing list of

Hello everyone, and welcome to another episode of Once and Always a Fanboy with me your host Chris Cantada Force. Today’s episode is a galactical reunion so to speak. I’ve known this guy ever since I was in high school and I was covering his songs. We officially met when I got into the music industry with Sponge Cola. We sparked a pretty unique bond, not just with music but with being Star Wars geeks. His band Kjwan just released their new single called MSK, and I can’t wait to catch up with him

Hello everyone, and welcome to another episode of Once and Always a Fanboy! I loved the Daredevil series and when the show was cancelled, I was one of the many people who felt heartbroken and disappointed. But because of Disney+, the series resurrected and thankfully with most of the past actors coming back reprising their roles. And I got to speak with one of those actors. But not just any actor. Someone whose work I've admired for a very long time. And one of her movies actually had a big impact

Hello everyone, and welcome to another episode of Once and Always a Fanboy! As a musician growing up in the 90s/early 2000s, there was one unique group that set themselves apart from the usual girl and boy bands that were hitting the airwaves at that time. The fact that they wrote their own songs was a huge deal for me, especially when wanted to be in the music industry as well. During the latter years, they gained success individually. But after almost two decades, they finally decided to reunite

Hello everyone, and welcome to another episode of Once and Always a Fanboy! Today I get to share my conversation with one of the actors I grew up watching.

His laugh is something I will always remember, and it was from the joy of us watching Balki Bartokomous. His new Netflix series The Residence is now streaming. Fangirls and fanboys, Bronson Pinchot!

Hello everyone, and welcome to another episode of Once and Always a Fanboy. Like many of you, I stumbled upon a show on Netflix that just raised the bar when it comes to storytelling and technical excellence. And that of course is Adolescence. I needed to geek out and talk to someone about it. And just my luck, I was able to do just that with one of the stars of the series. But as we were talking, I didn’t expect how inspired and amazed I would feel speaking to this 18 year old actress, whose first

She’s a remarkable actress, powerful singer, host, and she’s a cunning Yutnori player. That’s a Korean Children’s game, and she kicked our butts when we played it back in Korea. She plays Divina in the show Prinsesa ng City Jail, and she's killing it! Fangirls and Fanboys, Denise Laurel.
