King of Talk’s New Show: My Mother, My Story
Amid the many voices in Philippine media, one continues to stand the test of time, not for sheer volume but for its depth, sincerity, and unwavering devotion to celebrating the beauty of the human experience. That voice belongs to Boy Abunda, the country’s undisputed King of Talk, who yet again embarks on a new program that promises to touch hearts and inspire minds while paying homage to the most important woman in everyone’s life: our beloved mothers.
About the Show
A limited talk series, the show is titled “My Mother, My Story” and is set for the timeliest premiere on Mother’s Day this Sunday, May 12.
Boy Abunda’s Inspiration
For Kuya Boy, this long overdue project is deeply personal as it is a testament to his enduring love and reverence for his mother, the late Licerna Abunda. A confessed mama’s boy whose life’s compass and favorite advice to others has always been, “Make your nanay proud,” his Nanay Lesing is, by all means, the inspiration behind this undertaking.
Maternal Influence
Nanay Lesing was more than just a parent to Kuya Boy—she was his confidante, mentor, and unwavering source of strength, especially since he lost his father early on in life.
Celebrating Motherhood
In honoring his mother’s legacy, Kuya Boy aims to celebrate the universal experience of motherhood by discovering stories that reflect the beauty, complexity, and remarkable resilience of the maternal spirit.
Guests and Stories
Through the lens of celebrity guests like Luis Manzano for the pilot and potentially others like Andi Eigenmann, Julia Montes, and Kris Aquino, viewers will get a glimpse of the profound impact of maternal love on some of the most recognizable faces in the industry.
Emotional Conversations
“My Mother, My Story” will prove to be so much more than the usual TV talk show. For, as Kuya Boy said, in paying tribute to the women who brought us into this world, every treasured story is a reminder of the profound truth that it is in our mothers’ embrace where man can truly ever feel the pure essence of what it means to be loved, cherished, and celebrated.
Tune in to the pilot episode of “My Mother, My Story” on May 12, Mother’s Day, at 3:15 p.m. on GMA Network.
