Liberal Women
A Podcast for Women by Women
One of the podcast episodes of Kapihan with my Sis.
© Kababaihang LiberalThe all-female podcast, "Kapihan with My Sis", is celebrating a major win after successfully relaunching in partnership with FNF Philippines. Originally launched by Kababihang Liberal, the show, which tackles diverse topics like history, politics, and current affairs, underwent a redesign in early January 2025. This move proved highly successful, with the production of seven high-quality episodes and a peak viewership of 34,000. The podcast has now announced it will continue producing new episodes.
Hosted by a young college student and a professional woman, the podcast is known for bringing in experts to discuss important national issues. Themes for the first seven episodes included:
- "People Power" (to mark the peaceful mass protest that removed Dictator Marcos).
- "Vote Buying" (during the election season).
- "The Assassination of Ninoy Aquino" (the event that sparked public anger against the dictatorship).
The hosts also covered pressing current issues such as the "Women's fight for equality," the bloody "War on Drugs," and the debate over the need for "Divorce in the Philippines."
A unique and popular segment was "Manay Leila’s Corner," where highly-regarded Congresswoman Leila de Lima gave her views on the main topic of the week.

The team is committed to keeping the podcast going, fueled by its mission of advocating for women's rights, the LGBTQ+ community, youth, and children. They promise to keep a spotlight on issues that touch the lives of women and children, both directly and indirectly.
