Marcos Piangers never met his biological father. For many years, he tried to discover who was the guy he had never met.
In this funny and irreverent talk, radio communicator and presenter, Marcos Piangers, reflects about his own life which is similar to that of thousands of people who have never known their fathers.
The stories about paternity were transformed into the book "O Papai é Pop" by Piangers. One of the bestsellers in Brazil, it talks about his relationship with his two daughters, Anita and Aurora. Marcos Piangers explains that all the money raised will be donated to institutions that treat children in vulnerable situations. "This feeds my soul," concludes Piangers.
Piangers has been working with young communication digital platforms at the RBS Group since 2001. Born in Florianópolis, he has been living in Porto Alegre since 2006 where he participates in the radio program "Pretinho Básico," winner of the prize "Melhores 2014" from iTunes, Apple. He has given classes about humor and creative thought, and also covered the Olympic Games and the World Cup.
