With all the negative happening in the world im glad he used his platform to tackle on some of the issues he feels passionate about, of course this might not be for everyone but for people going through it, the message he left about sacrifice and success was comforting, and as a fan. Im glad I got to hear it.
Talking about the Filipino culture was also great, it puts a perspective of his culture for the viewers and even if youre not Filipino you would find similarities, I think its the beauty of immigrants, they share a common ground where the tools mentioned might be different but there is some part of the context that you've experienced.
Nonetheless, it shows Jokoy as a comedian in a different light and he even talks about his struggle with his first Netflix Special. I dont think it was too dragging, I think it was something he feels like it had to be said. He is also a father so in retrospect he mightve also wanted to do it as a message for his son and the young people.
Loved it!
