From Love to Energy.
After taking a break of over two months, the DJ formerly known as Papa Jack (John Gemperle in real life) officially announced his comeback on Facebook with a simple photo. In it came news that he will join 106.7 Energy FM as Papa J.
It can be recalled that John unexpectedly resigned from 90.7 Love Radio last December without citing a reason behind it. Following his resignation, John’s vacated timeslot was given to newcomer Lloyd Cafe Cadena (formerly of 93.9 iFM).
Papa J’s debut on 106.7 Energy FM will be on March 20. Still, despite his overwhelming popularity during his tenure at 90.7 Love Radio, it remains to be seen if he will help 106.7 Energy FM turn things around.

His new show on Energy FM will be named “hello… S.T.G.” with STG meaning Sorry, Thank you & Goodbye. Same slot as his old show True Love Conversations on Love Radio.
I expect him to employ the same style that he did during his time with Love Radio. Now it remains to be seen kung epektibo siya sa 106.7.
I love this program, especially when Kuya Chico guests himself after returning to Philippines. With his Kapitan Tutan character.
Papa Jackson is really a great entertainer. No wonder he is so popular with his listeners.
Reblogged this on Driven To Distraction and commented:
That’s why I saw him with DJ Chacha on Minute To Win It.
Since Energy FM is out of Top 10 based on the January 2017 Kantar survey, malalaman natin if Papa J (formerly Papa Jack) would turn things around for Energy para lang makapasok sa Top 10.
Hopefully they will considering his popularity. But we’ll see.
He can take this station to Top 5, if not top 3.
But he needs help, period. It’s a shame that Mr. Fu left before he arrived. They would’ve made a difference together.
Another update: Chico Loco from Yes FM and TAG FM in Dubai will return to Philippine Radio in May. This time, he will be on Energy just like Papa J.
Another important addition for the Energy family. This should give both Love and Yes a scare.
One hell of a scare for MBC.
Indeed. They won’t be No. 1 for long.
He returned and took the 6:00 – 11:00 AM band, with his Locomotion, with the usual characters he used in Yes FM before.
He did keep his trademarks after all. But the same cannot be said for Papa Jack, who became Papa Jackson. I’m not sure if Love still own the rights to the Papa Jack name.

I am currently listening to 106.7 Energy FM thru Live Stream from Albay. Wala kaseng Energy FM sa amin at di abot sa amin ang signal ng Energy FM Naga 106.3 kaya I choose to stream online.
Most regional stations tend to have less reach and power than that of Metro Manila since their coverage area is usually low. Good thing there’s online to make up for it.
Agree!
