June 2005. A heat wave presses down on Manila, but something colder slides through the wires. A metallic click ends a call—and with it, the illusion of privacy. What began as a murky, disembodied recording that rocked a nation becomes a modern ghost story: the sound on the line that refuses to be ignored.In this episode, Paul takes you through the eerie aftermath of the “Hello Garci” tapes—how a whisper on a scratched recording turned phones into instruments of paranoia, and how ordinary Filipinos began hearing ghosts in their landlines and cellphones. From simultaneous rings at dawn to toy phones playing by themselves, from unknown callers with no signal to bony hands forcing earphones back into sleeping ears, these are stories of listening, betrayal, and the terror of being heard.Listener prudence is required. The darkness here isn’t only supernatural—it’s political, psychological, and intimately familiar.
