July was an eventful month, and we can't let it go without discussing some of the most newsworthy events, such as DTI's move to standardize Adobo; DepEd's tantrum regarding the country's poor education ranking; the slew of calamities that affected Filipinos this month such as flooding, the threat of Taal's eruption, and a strong earthquake; the #Tumindig movement; Duterte's last SONA; and the Philippines' first ever Olympic gold medal, care of weightlifter Hidilyn Diaz.

We are joined by environmental historian and UP Department of History assistant professor, Dr. Kerby Alvarez.
