All posts for the day February 22nd, 2012

Possibly the craziest episode we’ve had so far. It was such a pleasure to have the beautiful but cray-cray Francine Prieto on The Morning Rush! We knew she was funny, but nothing prepared us for Typhoon Francine when she hit the airwaves with casualty: 1. Poor Ginoboi, he never knew what hit him.

It all started when Francine started posting on her Instagram account photos of pages from our top 10 book. She posted quite a lot, and the Rushers were quick to point out all the plugs she’s made on behalf of the book. Then a couple of days later, she tweeted that she was listening to us so we greeted her as well. Before we knew it, she dropped by the station and turned the show upside-down. How crazy was the show with Francine? Where do I start? From the “pwet ng baby” to “amoy toolbox” to “autogenic” to the unforgettable grilling of Gino Quillamor. I’ve never seen Gino so flustered EVER. Francine was merciless in putting Gino on the spot (with the 2 other jocks as willing accomplices). It was hilarious. I literally had a sore jaw because I was laughing non-stop. It’s useless to relay what happened in a narrative; you have to hear it to understand it. Just try to download the podcast! Of course the day ended with the kilig beso of the day between Francine and Gino. I did a bad job capturing the beso, but based on the expressions of the people who had the right vantage point, it’s safe to say they enjoyed it.

Of course we had our Epic Pic for the day. This just had to be called “pwet ng baby”. Francine was game to do this naughty Epic Pic, and were having such a hard time stifling our giggles because we could see how silly the picture was!

I swear, I was pooped by the time the show was over. I’d hate to overuse an already overused and abused word, but the only way I can describe this morning was…EPIC. Again, thanks to Miss Francine Prieto for making our morning a little crazier than usual. As if we needed more crazy. But we loved it, and we hope she can join us again some time in the future. Thanks, Francine!

This is a really nice song, with a weird video of Harry Potter star Rupert Grint as the singer.
