Hi Yoana;
Welcome to English forums.

I have never heard of such a word as "firstable."
There are two compound words with first: firstborn and firsthand.
So no, it's not correct.

Maybe you are misunderstanding some other word, or the announcer is using the word incorrectly.

Hi,

My guess is that what you heard is 'First of all'.
This is an emphatic way of beginning to speak of several things.
