By Cara Emmeline Garcia

Former Extra Challenge host Paolo Bediones is back in the Kapuso network for today's morning chikahan in Unang Hirit!

The TV personality was joined by another UH former host Hans Montenegro and spoke about what it's like being part of the longest-running morning show on television.

Paolo said, “It's amazing how some things have changed and some things have remained the same.

“Looking at you guys, iba pa rin 'yung energy ninyo for the past 20 years and I'm so proud of you guys.

“And this morning show is very close to my heart kasi dito ako nagsimula.”

The mini-reunion is part of Unang Hirit's 20th-anniversary celebration, where they bring in former hosts like beauty queen Miriam Quiambao.

Bediones became a part of the gang in 2007 until 2009 while Montenegro joined in 2000 and remained until 2003.

When asked what was Paolo's favorite segment, he answered, “Marami.

“'Yung tumutugtog kami, meron din tayong mga remote location shoots na napakaaga kang gumising--nakakatuwa 'yung mga days na iyon.

“Naalala natin 'yung mga challenges 'pag nasa remote tayo na 'di nakikita ng audience. Ang daming mga bagay-bagay na nangyayari behind-the-scenes.”
