'Bright Side'

Mga "Bike-yani" ngayong #NewNormal, kilalanin!

GMA NEWS TV’s newest offering, NEW NORMAL: THE SURVIVAL GUIDE opens on July 20 with five different programs from Monday to Friday 830 PM ---  all targeted to help Filipinos in facing the New Normal amidst the pandemic. The Tuesday slot is occupied by the Bright Side of the strip with host, award-winning journalist Kara David.

Bright Side brings stories of good vibes and silver linings in the face of Covid-19. The program shares inspiring stories and viral content that aim to provide more reasons to look at the brighter side of life.

For its Pilot Episode, Kara rides her bike looking for stories of what she calls “Bike-yani”, or “mga bayaning nakabisikleta”. Given the lack of public transportation these days, more commuters opt to Bike to Work. Some of them would painstakingly pedal for hours under the heat of the sun yet, remain hopeful as long as they can provide for their loved ones. Kara met these inspiring Bike-yanis and surprised one of them with a new bike!

In the new normal, gardening has become a new way of living. Kara met some of our plantitos and plantitas, from ordinary people to celebrities--- the popular Team Kramer being one of them.  Social Media gems Cheska and Doug of Team Kramer shared their organic garden that according to them, grew even bigger during the lockdown.

Kara also showcased the heroism of our Frontliners and the numerous acts of kindness shown by our policemen and policewomen that went viral.

A known foodie, Kara will also do a regular food segment with “Good Eats.” For the pilot episode, she cooked- “Tiktok” style joined by Tiktok Queen and comedian Ate Gay.
