A funny thing happened. Before the interview, I tried calling Icky at the station since it was a Sunday, and I wanted to make things convenient for me and him, but he never answered. I viewed the stream and he didn’t seem to pay attention to the phone. That’s why I went to the station only to find out that Icky didn’t pick the phone up because someone was pranking him earlier.

Whenever Icky would go on air, the prankster would ring him, and wouldn’t answer when the phone was picked up. Is this a horror movie in the making? Oh well, pranksters will always be prankster, or the caller just had a broken phone. Okay, so after the small talk about the prank, we started the actual talk. I didn’t know much about Icky just yet, so I asked things about him. 

Icky’s hobbies are photography, cooking and eating. He started photography at 2009, and is very good at it. He always practices too. I saw him take a lot of photos during the Y101FM Christmas Party. His cooking history was fun too. Icky reveals that as a teenager, he watched his siblings and mother cook their specialties, and all he could do was watch. He didn’t have anything special, that’s why he decided to cook, which was the right decision. 

Icky’s specialty is pasta (yum), and his family loves it. I can tell by the way they talk about Icky’s cooking. Icky cooks a lot of food too including steaks, beans… almost anything!  I can tell that Icky is the cook of the family—his kids were enjoying telling me about their father’s cooking.

I hope we get to taste that pasta soon, Icky!
