The media conference, which was organized to promote his upcoming musical event titled "DaddyOkie: A Father’s Day Concert," quickly shifted focus toward the broader internal dynamics of the show.
Reporters also pressed the composer regarding separate rumors indicating that the program's top star, Vice Ganda, had supposedly held private meetings with the executive management of GMA Network.

He explained that the diverse age brackets of the hosts allow them to provide distinct programmatic functions, anchoring the show through shifting media climates.
“Kami kasi ni Tyang Amy ang senior du’n. So, siya yung point of view ng nanay, and then ako naman yung point of view ng tatay. Kasi may mga roles kami sa Showtime, e,” Ogie explained.
He also added a message of solidarity for the network management, saying, “Tungkol naman sa patuloy na pinagdaraanang pagsubok ng ABS-CBN, It’s hard for all the artists and… especially for our bosses. So, kapit lang. Sama sama naman kami e.”
