So happy to end this season with the one and only Macoy Dubs. I've always admired people who have a good sense of humor. It takes wit to crack a joke and evidence suggests that having a good sense of humor is linked to high emotional intelligence.

Just like the Late Nights by Luna Manila podcast, Macoy also uses his influence and reach to promote his advocacies in a light and entertaining manner. It's a fun and serious episode at the same time so make sure to listen.
