Papa Carlo of 91.1 Campus Radio Lucena

When asked what’s the most challenging part of being a DJ, Papa Carlo jokingly answered, “Bilang DJ na macho at gwapo, mahirap tanggihan ang mga chicks na nagkakandarapa sayo. Joooooke! Kidding aside. We cannot please everybody so bilang DJ, challenge kung paano mo tatanggapin ang ‘pangha-harass’ ng mga listeners na ayaw sayo.”

Question and Answer:
1. How many years have you been working as a DJ?
1 year

2. How did you get your start as a DJ?
I applied, and I was hired right there and then.

3. Has it always been your dream to become a DJ? Why or why not?
Yes. Mahirap i-explain e. I just wanted to be like the guys I hear on the radio.

4. Do you still see yourself working in this field several years from now? Why or why not?
Yes. Forever kong gusto ang radyo. But the question is… forever din kaya akong gusto ng radyo? *winks*

5. What’s the most memorable thing that happened to you on-air?
Nung bumigay yung computer namin and I was not prepared to talk. Nakakataranta!

6. What do you consider to be the highlights of your career so far?
Yung sagot sa tanong na “What’s the world’s number 2 shampoo?” Iyon din ang sagot ko. Joke! Iyong buong package ng pagiging DJ, iyon mismo.

7. How do you keep your listeners tuned in to your program?
Ginagawa ko iyong palaging sinasabi ng mentor ko noong trainee pa lang ako, na dapat natural ka lang. At para maging natural, isipin mo na bestfriend mo iyong listener mo, at dapat laging may laman ang sinasabi mo.

8. What do you think are the challenging parts of being a DJ?
Bilang DJ na macho at gwapo, mahirap tanggihan ang mga chicks na nagkakandarapa sayo. Joooooke! Kidding aside. We cannot please everybody so bilang DJ, challenge kung paano mo tatanggapin ang “pangha-harass” ng mga listeners na ayaw sayo.

9. How about the best part?
Iyong nakakapagpasaya ka ng maraming tao. Iyon na iyon!

10. What can you tell other people who are also aspiring to become a DJ?
Hindi madali ang maging DJ! It requires a lot of thinking. Nakakaubos ng utak kaya dapat lagi kang updated sa kung ano ang nangyayari sa paligid mo.
