Unknown to many, we three are introverts! But of course with our jobs that require us to be extra social 90% of the time, how do we cope? This week we talk about how we've adapted... or "faked" our way to perform in our roles. How about you, what things have you faked to succeed in something? Is it a good thing to "fake" skills, responses, or attitudes?

We invited the biggest fangirl we've ever met! In this episode, our dear friend and Inquirer sportswriter Celest Flores shares with us her adventures and her long history of fangirling (from local music artists and student-athletes, to her "true love" today—Exo's Chan-yeol). Celest also gave the girls an interesting quick course on the terminologies and the things that make Kpop Idols different from artists and celebrities. When do you stop being a fan of someone?

Curious Mars is back! We received a variety of very deep questions this week, like why is Lian single? And what will happen if we eat ourselves? This episode also contains good dissections of what will happen to us if technology and internet were to be taken away for a day, what people might find weird in our homes, and how we are emoting to Taylor Swift's new tracks from the vault. On more serious levels, we also talked about mob mentality, mental wellness related to applying for a job in the pandemic, and well, the perfect romantic scenarios in Lian's head, which is of course the reason why she's single.

In celebration of women all over the world, we talk about our female heroes, gender equality and some struggles we had moving around a society led by men. Do we think we'd get there quicker if we were men? How do we deal with old-fashioned gender standards? And what do we think about women who bring other women down?

How do we decide which things need to go? We have our very own experts OC Angelique and Madame Hoarder Lian share their ideas this week. Angelique: Only purchase and keep the things that you need in the present ✨ Sam: I'll keep it if it can move me forward closer to my dreams. If not, bbye!

To all the boys we loved before, this one's for you! With Valentine's Day in the air, we share about our puppy loves and first heartbreaks. This conversation covers some possibly incriminating revelations about our past crushes and a few blind items but forgive us we just really want to have a good laugh (with the status of our love lives, or the lack of it, except Angelique, of course). We concluded that our puppy loves truly brought us to where we are today so we really are grateful. And like Lian, quoting one of our favorite philosophers, we say: "You made me stronger by breaking my heart." (R. Velasquez, 1995)

Your Mars dressed up nicely for this season finale because we have Carol Malasig of @almostdiplomatic in the show. She shared us how it is like being a diplomat's wife, traveling and meeting people all the time. With our 2021 intentions of going out and about (fingers are crossed on this one), we also asked her to walk us through how to be 'sosyal' in terms of clothing and demeanor. This episode revealed some of Lian's hiccups covering the more 'premium' beats. We had a great time in this episode and we hope finally, we'd be able to use these lessons in real life (aka the world outside the Internet). Would you like some tea?
