When he was young, between 8 and 10 years old, he greatly enjoyed the horror book series Goosebumps, by R. L. Stine. As an adolescent, he listened on repeat to the album Californication, by Red Hot Chili Peppers. During the 2003 Copa del Rei final, which Mallorca won, cameras captured a boy running towards the players, dressed in white, with a microphone in his hand, trying to get the first statements amidst all the joy: “That boy was my brother,” says Manel Barjacoba, the younger brother of IB3 Radio director, Daniel Barjacoba (born in Binissalem), who is called Dani. Before all that, however, Sílvia arrived, the older sister, with whom Dani is practically one year apart: she is from 1985 and he is from 1986. Indeed: this year is Dani's 40th year. And Manel, the youngest of the three, who is seven years younger than the journalist, tells us about it.

The IB3 works council has stated that it will fight to the bitter end for their rights and to resolve the conflict arising from the internalization of workers. Their news services were subcontracted for 18 years, suffering "all kinds of abuses," such as "minimal" wages, unpaid overtime, legal and illegal redundancy plans (EREs), and job instability "incompatible with the essential news service." In their opinion, they did so not "so much out of conviction" but because of the "certainty" that they would end up losing the pending lawsuits for illegal transfer of workers. Continuing with the account of the events, the committee explained that at that time there were 160 complaints from workers from different subcontracts about integrating workers as non-permanent, permanent staff. However, a Supreme Court ruling determined that any employee with a permanent contract before an internalization process must be permanent when the service is subcontracted.
