MichaeL AngeLo Part 1 (inspirationaL TaLk)

An “ex-convict” he is. That was how former seminarians were referred to in the days I was in the seminary myself. It was a satirical way to describe someone who had been living a semi-cloistered life finally finding himself in the outside world.
Michael Angelo Lobrin was a couple of years before his ordination to priesthood in the Catholic Church, but the deacon then at San Carlos Seminary after consulting with the late Cardinal Sin decided he could serve God better as a layman, hence, starting a new life outside of the seminary as Michael Angelo - comedian, motivational speaker, philosophy professor, and entrepreneur.
He is also on TV, starring in a sitcom his production company (Michael Angelo TV Productions) churns out weekly. And on Jan. 27, #MichaelAngelo: The Sitcom begins its 13th season on GMA News TV (Channel 11 on un-cabled TVsets and on Cignal; Channel 24 on SKY). Not to mention his off-and-on stints on the radio. Oh, he is also a best-selling author (check out best-selling titles at National Book Store and you will likely see Laugh With God on it).
You don’t have to like the guy, but I am sure even if you don’t you will find yourself laughing at his punch lines, so to speak, mostly laced with satire, parody and at times mockery. Michael Angelo is a self-deprecating comedian who finds humor in his own experiences.
Success didn’t come easy to the ex-seminarian who dreamt of making it big in the outside world. A strong believer in the scriptures, he adheres to “If there’s no opportunity, you create the opportunity.” And that’s how he started in show business. “I wasn’t invited to guest in shows so I put up my own show and I’d be the one to invite stars. Kapag kilala na nila ako, iimbitahin nila ako sa shows nila. For that, I have to thank Dingdong Dantes and Ai-Ai de las Alas who were kind to me, I proved myself right. That was how #MichaelAngelo: The Sitcom was born.”
It started as a talk show, but folded up after six weeks due to things he wasn’t aware of, like plastering all over the set the Point of Sales (POS) and advertising material of his major sponsor, San Miguel Corporation. But, again, he believes that when a door closes, a window will open. So, after delivering an inspirational talk to employees of Agro Ventures, Inc., owner of Chooks-To-Go, the owner offered to sponsor his show. Now he has a roster of supporters that believes in him, they won’t let him go.
Don’t introduce Michael Angelo as a self-made man. He says, “There’s no such animal as a self-made man. Bakit, wala ba siyang Nanay, wala ba siyang Tatay, wala ba siyang mga kapatid at mga kamag-anak?” That’s the kind of humor you’d hear in his inspirational talks. You may not be inspired but you will certainly be entertained.
