21. Because he's a boy
As girls we have always found that things were very different compared to our male siblings, our parents gave them a little more leniency. Which was frustrating but we found our ways around it. 😝
In this episode we discuss growing up girls vs boys in a filipino household, with our good friend Ryo. Are boys and girls equal? Or do males have it easy? 🤔
As always please don’t hesitate to dm us @22chismis on Instagram or twitter, we’d love to hear from you! ❤️
20. Superstition or Myth?
Superstitions? 🤔 We know most cultures have them, whether they be ridiculous or not; growing up Filipino has made us follow the rules of the superstitious world. Do you think London is too busy for these superstitions/ myths? 🏃🏻♀️
In this episode we discuss the weirdest superstitions and folklore that the filipino culture carries to keep the mumu away! 👻
We’d like to hear about your culture’s weirdest superstitions! As always dm us @22chismis on Instagram & Twitter!! 😘
19. Birthday games night but on lock doh
18. They called me a Queen
If you grew up knowing a Filipino girl you've definitely heard something called a 'debut'. 🌹🕯Yes, all that 18 candles and 18 roses business in a big hall full of food and people and performances.
Did you know we grew up with soooo many more significant events like this? In this episode we talk about the experiences of different cultural events we participated in. This is the real deal of Filipino culture 🇵🇭 x British upbringing 🇬🇧 ! Want to know more? You know what to do! 🎧

17. Light skinned vs. Dark skinned ft. Samantha Evira
Yeah we know, even in the Philippines there’s a big thing about whitening products; being ‘lighter skinned’ is deemed more ‘beautiful’ - is this really the case? Crazy to think here in London we want the sun to tan and get darker to look more ‘bronzed’ and ‘glowy’. Which is the complete opposite in the Philippines apparently.
In this episode we talk about the beauty standards over here and over there, oh and we have a special guest who’s all about beauty - Samantha Evira.
Catch us on Instagram for all the chismis all week long @22chismis and for all things beauty @samanthaevira 💅🏼
16. Food glorious food
We already knowww this is your favourite topic! 🍴Giss and Gee especially always either thinking, talking or actually eating food!!! 🐷We discuss all things food! Especially delving into whether Filipino foods are deemed ‘healthy’ with our British eyes. Oh and veganism is now a big thing here right? Yeah... not over there though! 🥦
Anyways, I’m hungry so I’ll leave it there. What’s your favourite food? Have you tried Filipino food? Go follow us on Instagram @22chismis check us out on Fridays = Food Fridays 😍
15. Mum he’s just my friend
Having a platonic relationship with the opposite sex seems out of the ordinary for many Filipinos. There are a lot of mixed views on the topic of being ‘just friends’. In this episode we dig deep in our thoughts about it with our male friend Ryo! We came to one of the conclusions that our parents relationship with their friends affected our friendships now!
So can you be friends with the opposite sex? We want to hear from you! DM us at @22chismis, lets discuss 🤓
14. Coming home with my hair half shaved off
Do you remember the very first time you came home (without telling mum) with your new piercing or your new hairstyle or new tattoo? What was her reaction? Was she calm or did she call you a rockstar? 🤣
Filipino mums just want us to be plain Jane’s buttttt we live in a big big London where we are able to express ourself however we desire, right?!
We want to hear your stories too so we’ll wait for you in our DM’s @22chismis, catch you there! 💇🏻♀️
13. Living in the Philippines... uh maybe!
In this episode Gianne emphasises visualising & taking action can make your dreams come true. What do you think?
We talk about whether we would be able to hack living in the Philippines for a couple a months and what we would do out there. It’s so different to London, but if we were to come out of our comfort zones it could happen... but... uhhh we still don’t know!
What would you do? Let us know @22chismis on Instagram! Orrrrr message us individually to motivate us in doing what we got to do 😅

11. Mum teach me how to save pls ft. Kia
10. Are we spoilt because we're British?
We know as humans it’s easy to soak up stereotypes and project them to the collective, is this right though? Yes okay we’re Asian but we’re not Chinese sir.
In this episode we discuss the experiences we’ve had in regards to how others perceive us as being a British Filipino. So come and sip some tea (with your pinky poking out of course) after a hard day of being a nurse.
Joking!
We want to hear what kind of experiences you have, the good, the bad and the ugly! How do you think we can break stereotypes?
We’ll be waiting in your DM’s for you @22chismis on Instagram! X
9. JT Returns
It’s always nice to go back to the homeland to visit family, to experience the day to day life of Filipino’s (like riding a tricycle) and of course eating good food! In this episode we have a little chitchat about Jens holiday to the Philippines and what she got up to.
We’d love to hear your favourite thing about visiting Philippines, DM us @22Chismis x
8. Figuring it out
Uni degree? Done. Life after uni? Ermmm... let’s discuss. This episode Giss & Gee talk all about their experiences during uni, after uni and their current situation. Literally just figuring it out as we go. We both haven’t taken the conventional route after uni, so give us a listen to see what we’re actually up to. But to be honest we don’t even know what we’re up to!
I know it can be a hard topic to talk about when we feel like everyone else is running their race. But we’re here waiting for you in our DM’s @22chismis x
