Four years ago Sara Duterte joined forces with Marcos and the pair won the Presidency and Vice-Presidency in a landslide. Now their relationship is a bitter power battle defined by accusations, impeachment attempts and the prosecution of Ms Duterte's father, a former President, at the International Criminal Court in Europe.

Meanwhile, protests are simmering over a massive corruption scandal involving a program to mitigate flooding, putting pressure on politicians throughout the government system.

In this episode, host Mariko Oi speaks to BBC South East Asia correspondent Jonathan Head and Manila-based journalist Regine Cabato about the deepening Marcos-Duterte rivalry, the return of protests, and what it all means for the future of Philippine politics.
