Did you know the last time I visited Anthony Taberna way back September 26? Ooohhh, I'm still Starstruck on that guy. He's now having an Instagram account. He started to learn taking pictures using his own moblie phone. Oh well! Nice to meet him. Every year I had seen him and took some pictures. Ahahaha! I missed him already, but I still watching and tuning on the radio specially every afternoon.
And speaking of radio, I want to share my crazy and.... what else? Arrrggghh! I can't explain. Somebody help me! Hahaha! Just kidding. I want you to meet my new icon, which is also known as..... THE MONARCH OF PHILIPPINE RADIO. And he's turning 26 anytime I made this blog entry. Yeheyyyy! I dedicate this blog only for him. Ayiieeee! Still blushing. :) And his name is...... Chico Loco, a late night DJ like no other. You know why? Just shut up and read it. :)

Chico Loco (Mark Jimel Delos Santos Gales in real life) is the eldest son of Jaime and Elsie, whose now working in Ireland as OFW, and finished his study at De La Salle University Dasmariñas (now La Salle-Dasmariñas) in Cavite. He took up Broadcast Journalism as his first choice, and he also became a member of a chorale group in the same school. That is why he loves to sing whether he might got lose his voice or shout on air. Hahahaha! He also been dreaming of become a field reporter, until he got hired in Manila Broadcasting Company in 2009 as Radio Jock (I dunno the exact date of being a radio jock. Hihihi.). He grew up in a simple and quite place of Biñan City in Laguna together with his younger brother, cousins and other relatives. He has two cute and lovely pet dogs named Choo Choo and Snoopy. And he already got his brand new car.
From being an avid fan of some popular radio jocks including China Paps (aka China Heart), Martin D. , Nicole Hyala, Chris Tsuper, and Papa Jack (which now became his partner in Gabi Na, Gising Na!), Chico Loco became popular in his late night radio program entitles YES! Diaries which airs every 9 in the evening 'til 1 in the morning (or it might be extended depends on his last caller) on YES! FM 101.1. He might called himself as "Your Humbleness" because of being so humble to his avid listeners. And he became "The Monarch of Philippine Radio", as he named by himself on his Facebook Fanpage. Ahahaha! Sounds funny but well deserving. :) Just like Papa Jack (Radio Jock from 90.7 Love Radio's TLC: True Love Conversations), he also give some sort of advice and add some jokes during the program in order to lessen the tension of some callers. He also laughs harder everytime he told his younger years as a kid and as a student.

During the segment entitled "Roleta ng Kapalaran" (Wheel of Fortune), he might change his voice with some of the characters made by himself. It can be playful or quite annoying when you heard the voices of Notnot ( the weird witch who loves to ask for donation and always give a potion for any problems), Kapitan Tutan (a Barangay Chairman who always bring his DVDs and give the movie titles with an X-Rated theme but educational, Ahahaha!), Madam Chiki (a gay fortune teller riding in a hot air pinkish balloon who likes to have a date with a handsome guys and loves to tell the Lucky Anez Anez), Chiclet ( a young silly kid who always asking silly questions and loves to play around, just like Chico of course.), Lola Kerps ( an old woman and online game enthusiast who loves to tell stories on legends and myths to her grandchildren), Koyang (the parody of Big Brother who always give his weekly task and give instead of punishments, a reward to his housemate inside the Nipa Hut or "Kubo" in Tagalog term), and News Anchor and Correspondent of BALITAnga (news with a nonsense topic and headline). This awesome talent made him more popular than any other midnight radio program.

Everytime I heard my tweets and even photos on my Twitter, he might appreciate it in a nice way. That was the time I already addicted to his big and swag voice. Whenever I look at his face, he looks like my father, literally because he acted just like my father, but not for long. In his quotes of inspiration during his intro, I already copied and made it as my Facebook status. Yah! Obviously. :) I am now a fan of Chico. I cannot enjoy my entire sleep without his voice on my ears. And I usually wake up early eventhough I got 3 to 4 hours of sleep because of him. Hahahaha! And no one can take it away from me. Someone might tell, he's not well educated on giving solutions and he might be a star because of Papa Jack, I'm not against them. You should try to listen, if not, I will not recommend to tune in and turn off the radio. I look at him as a true person eventhough he might get silly and naughty sometimes, he just want to entertain us to decrease some stress from work or from school. You can enjoy tweeting or posting his fanpage. All he want is to be happy. Yah! He always wear a smile with our without his braces on his teeth. :)
Oh well! I want to greet a happy birthday and wish him more success, more happiness, and more blessings to come. And someday, I will visit your booth and take a picture with you, chubby thing. :)
Until then, his name is Chico Loco and I am the blogger, saying goodbye fro now, take care, have a nice sleep, and YOU GO FAR.....
