Every Saturday, Isko Salvador who is more commonly known as Brod Pete, makes people laugh out loud even with his calm delivery of jokes.
 
‘Alien’ is being chanted several times in each episode of Celebrity Bluff.
 
In his many years working as a comedian, even working with the likes of Maricel Soriano, Michael V and the late Dolphy, what makes Celebrity Bluff close to his heart? He discloses the top three reasons why he loves being a Gangnam.
 
1. He gets paid to have fun.
At age 56, he feels fortunate to have stayed in an industry which not only makes people laugh but gives him happiness as well.
 
“[Sobrang] saya dahil nagugustuhan [ng mga tao] 'yung mga ginagawa namin saka may pera kami,” he said.
 
2. Two years into the show, he still looks forward to every taping day.
For others, work could get tiresome after a while, but not for Brod Pete. For him, work translates to over-the-top enjoyment. He even thinks that they have more fun than those who watch the show at home.
 
“Enjoy ako lagi tuwing taping. Every taping sa ‘kin, memorable kasi masaya kami eh. Mas masaya nga 'yung taping kaysa sa mapapanood [sa TV] eh. Marami na kasing na-cut [dun] eh,” he said.
 
3. The show is just beginning.
As much as he is thankful for being part of the show, he hopes that the journey is only about to start.
 
“Bata pa lang ['yang show eh]. Marami pang mangyayari. Maganda kasi 'yung show eh. Nakakatawa at may information kang makukuha. Iba siya,” he declared.
