Thursday , last day of July on iFM comfort room, hosts Cocoy and Stanley started the program by reading a hand in letter from a high school student whose name is Jay. He’s in his 4th year now and said that he has a very low self confidence and super low self esteem. Jay’s problem is his hair! He said that even when he was only in elementary he already have this feeling that in a short time he’s going to be bald. Now, his classmates and even his schoolmates are calling him names such as “tatay” “ wanggo” “panot” names that he doesn’t want to be called.

Because of this he lost his confidence to even court his crush in school for she might turn him down. Callers of the program suggested that “pakalbo ka na lang gid” others said don’t be affected by these people, concentrate on whatever you’re into. Cocoy even said “tanom ka aloe vera kag ipamanyos sa buhok mo.
The afternoon made a 360 degree turn though, when a caller named July called up and shared a problem. She’s an attendant in a store in Baranggay Bata, they have a customer named tata. She’s is 28 years old with two children the youngest is only eight months, her husband works as an inspector in the south for Ceres Liner, she said she doesn’t love her husband anymore that for three months after she gave birth they never had sex. Because her husband is seldom here, she enjoys joy riding with her jeepney driver friends. A friend of hers though impregnated her, and on the way for three months now. She’s not planning to tell this to her husband and worst is, she is aborting the baby.
Shortly after July had told the host about the problem, barrage of callers were very eager to air their piece. Majority of them called tata “catolon” , burst of laughter fills the air every time they say this. A caller even caught the hosts off-guard when she repeatedly said “ daw gaga gid sya ya, bal an ya may bana na sya joy ride pa sya sa iban?” of course Cocoy and Stanley were fast enough to wash their hands with what the caller just said, saying “ wala kami to ya ka hambal ha, caller to ya”.
Condemning abortion is the firm stand of the iFM comfort room hosts, a lot of callers had their blood pressure checked shortly after giving their advice, “kailinit sa iya is the word they said to tata”
It was a laughter filled afternoon again in this Thursday episode of iFM comfort room as Cocoy announced on the air that team iFM is accepting food donations for Stanley’s birthday on Friday. 4345082 is the number to dial if you want to join Stanley and Cocoy in their daily afternoon program Pwede!....
