SlickMaster, Carlos (FM1, Relate Nights, Chances Are), ShockRizal, and Ria cap up the night with more random talks.

In this second part of what has been a trilogy of total reeks of randomness, the quartet (SlickMaster, Carlos, ShockRizal, and Ria) never stops from ranting about some V-day related gestures. And we're pretty sure this madness will not be over... yet.

Christine Mercado drops by after having her busy day as a streamer at Kumu, and the long night of madness doesn't stop there as she talks about getting away from her old job, feedbacks and criticisms, weird food experiences, and a whole lot more.

Guia (OMG! Komiks!!!, Heartcrafted Creations) and Gian the Bearded Busker (NAT Juan) drop by as the trio discusses the critically-acclaimed NBC sitcom "The Good Place" while keeping themselves censored to the Maximum Derek level (or at least, they tried).

These Drunken Midnights aren't supposed to be back until later in the month, but here we go in an unplanned yet almost timely episode. SlickMaster, Ria, ShockRizal/Jason, and Carlos of FM1 team up to discuss an overhyped, over-commercialized, feeling holiday called Valentine's Day. 

Dax Balmeo returns to the podcast and bares more of his stories as a touring musician. Jon Tamayo of The Strange Creatures joins us and discusses his share of tales in the gig circuit.

Trian Lauang — or Trian Dela Torre, in the eyes of wrestling smarks — isn't just an inch-for-inch guy for nothing. He's wearing more hats than any other person beyond his size (including his brief stint as a stand-up comedian and profession as an attorney at law) and still managed to drink over tons of conversations night in and night out.  It may not be a Bukkake Night in 2020, but wasakan is still real as the frontman of The Oemons- slash-former PWR Tag Team Champion hangs around with yours truly in this episode. 

Dax Balmeo shares his various tales of geeking out, the good old times of working at Eastwood and Ortigas, living in two countries, and the awesome road trips around Bulacan.  

RJ Pineda hangs around and talks a lot of smack during the long road to his music career, from being a session player to getting his breaks by being part of The Brat Pack and playing the pioneer keyboard guy for Apartel. But that's not all, because this is just the first half of our 2-part conversation with the main man behind Riot Logic!
