Nathaniel Tantay: The Passion Incarnate
Dan and Basil dive face first into the mind of the one and only “Passion Incarnate”, Nathaniel Tantay. He is a street magician, an amateur musician, a Youtuber and he also likes to stalk and creep girls he likes on Facebook regardless if they know him or not. Ishtalks takes a very cautious direction of this topic due to Nathaniel being silent and the sources which is all one-sided, as we need Yin Omega's own side after all. Is he suffering from delusions of grandeur? Grade 8 syndrome? Or he's just a first class a-hole? We'll find out.

Fake News Bloggers, Martial Law Lite and Shameless Promotions
Kahapon, nawala ang page ni Mocha Uson, ang former Assistant Secretary for Social Media ni Digong. Naglitawan ang ibang blogging sites na ang specialty ay fearmongering at pagpapakalat ng pekeng impormasyon ukol sa nangyayari sa Pilipinas. Madilim sa labas, tahimik ang mga kalye. Kagaya ng Martial Law dati kapag sumapit ang curfew. Lite version nga lang. Nag-promote rin ako sa ilang mga albums ko.
