Your friendly neighborhood Pambansang Blogger ng Pilipinas, Ross Del Rosario, has recently accepted accepted the offer to co-host at Radyo Uno's Family Business radio show which airs every Sunday from 5:00 to 6:30 pm.

They've been wanting me to join them since I first guested with them last December 21, 2014 but I was unfortunately too busy to accept during those times when events and writing obligations were too frequent that even my weekends were blocked.

I am still busy, but I will try my best to host whenever I'm free. Though I'm more focused on online media since I am the type of person who works best at the background, I am open to collaboration even if it means I have to be under the spotlight.

Radio and TV hosting opportunities will be challenging because unlike blogging, I will now be dealing with concerns such as impromptu dialogues (as we won't be always depending on a readily available scripts) and outfit considerations (what to wear at every broadcast since we are on live streaming and it will look awkward wearing the same clothes every airtime).

Our guest last Sunday, February 8, was e-games mobile provider Mirai D3sign Digital Solutions. Both the CEO and Business Development Officer of the company discussed about their very first mobile game app called "Fiesta7" which they are promoting as a leisure game downloadable for free as an Android mobile app via Google Play Store. The game involves just picking 7 numbers and trying your luck to win via randomly drawn numbers for the day.
