The Spokes: Atty. Barry Gutierrez on Power, Messaging, and the Push for a Special Election

November 26, 2025 Episode

Get ready for thought-provoking conversations that challenge your views and sharpen your opinions.

Join Atty. Edwin Lacierda on #TheSpokes as they he both sides of today’s most pressing political and governance issues.

Joining us today is Atty. Barry Gutierrez, former Akbayan Partylist Representative and spokesperson of former Vice President and now Mayor Leni Robredo, for an in-depth conversation on some of the most talked-about political developments in the country.

In this episode, he shares his legal and political assessment of Zaldy Co’s past and latest claims, and whether the communications strategy behind these moves is achieving its intended effect. We also discuss criticisms that the President appears more reactive than proactive, and whether he is being too deferential to political allies.

The conversation then turns to Mayor Leni’s decision to attend a rally in Naga instead of EDSA. Is this a form of political distancing, a strategic refusal to be pulled into narratives she cannot control, or something else entirely?

Finally, we tackle the provocative suggestions for a so-called Great Reset, which includes proposals for both the President and Vice President to resign so that the Senate President becomes caretaker president and calls for a special election.
