00:00 Strict but generous and playful,
00:03 that's how his colleagues portrayed
00:06 our beloved Mike Enriquez.
00:08 Let's go back to Mike's memories
00:11 or the beginning of Jonathan Andal's career.
00:14 At this time of the morning,
00:19 I'm still alive.
00:21 It's like I'm praying every day.
00:24 People are still here.
00:25 It's a true service.
00:26 Mike Enriquez's day starts
00:28 here at the Super Radio DZW office.
00:31 This is the only chance to eat
00:33 while we're on the show.
00:34 If not, I'll be hungry.
00:35 When he arrives here, he sits there.
00:40 Here?
00:40 Yes.
00:41 He already has a bowl,
00:43 he already has a drive-thru
00:45 in a fast food chain,
00:46 he already brought breakfast
00:47 with his favorite coffee.
00:49 Did you know that even with a cellphone,
00:52 Mike still uses a handheld radio?
00:54 If someone talks on the radio in base 2-1,
00:57 answer it first, that's Sir Mike.
00:59 He's the one who does the flash report of the fire.
01:01 He's the one who does the flash of the accident.
01:03 Inside his office,
01:05 there's also Mike's transistor radio.
01:08 Sir Mike, wherever he goes,
01:10 he brings it to the car,
01:11 he listens to it,
01:11 until it's not broken,
01:12 until it works, he'll use it.
01:14 His executive assistant for 15 years,
01:17 Bernadette, said
01:18 Mike is a strict boss,
01:19 but he's also kind.
01:20 My sister had cancer,
01:22 he was able to help me.
01:23 And my husband's family,
01:26 my father-in-law, his brother.
01:28 In the studio,
01:29 Mike has a habit of being naughty,
01:31 said his floor director for 20 years.
01:34 That's why Mike is always on the air,
01:36 because while doing a commercial,
01:37 he eats snacks like peanuts.
01:40 The director said,
01:41 the EP said,
01:42 "Don't eat anymore."
01:43 "What are you going to do? I'm hungry."
01:45 He's like that.
01:46 So, even if I tell him,
01:48 he'll still do it.
01:50 He said,
01:51 "Karine, he's brutal when it comes to love."
01:53 So, if he doesn't make you angry,
01:56 he doesn't love you,
01:58 you're not close.
02:00 One of Mike's suppliers of peanuts,
02:02 is Ati Lani,
02:03 of the co-op canteen of GMA.
02:05 One day,
02:07 I hope there's peanuts up there,
02:09 so you won't forget us.
02:11 Outside the office and studio,
02:13 Mike is a funny and good friend.
02:16 His friend in the office,
02:18 Willie Inong,
02:19 was a DJ on the radio.
02:21 He told him where Mike's
02:23 "buma" (fart) came from.
02:25 It's Mars Ravelo,
02:26 Filipino comics.
02:28 It's a big elephant,
02:30 from the 1950s and 60s.
02:32 His friends called him that.
02:34 Over time,
02:36 Mike liked it.
02:38 He was the last person he talked to,
02:39 before he was sent to the ICU,
02:41 two weeks after his release.
02:43 Until the end,
02:45 Mike wanted to go back to the air.
02:47 He kept saying,
02:49 "Willie,
02:50 next week,
02:51 I already talked,
02:53 they already talked to me.
02:54 I'm gonna go back on the air next week."
