Hey Tablo, how do you get over the darkest time of your life?

This episode opens with Tablo riffing on a mistaken BTS album-cover “reveal,” turning a simple announcement into a goofy realization (00:00). He settles in with coffee and small talk, then launches into a dinner party story where he accidentally becomes the person who makes everything awkward (02:03). A light chat about pets flips when he argues that animals talking would be a horrifying idea, spiraling into uncomfortable, dark humor that shocks the table (03:25).

The tone shifts when Tablo plays a clip from Conan O’Brien’s podcast that captures how humor can be a powerful relief in times of sadness (07:50). This opens the door to personal stories about loss and friendship, where laughter appears at unexpected moments and offers brief relief without taking the pain away (12:01). He dives into more personal stories from losing a close friend during college (13:20) and his father's funeral (27:55). He then moves onto how he tried to help his friends with humor during hard times (40:00), including at his band member Tukutz's mom's funeral (42:28). He concludes the episode by describing the process of dealing with loss (54:00)

The first episode of Hey Tablo begins with (00:49)New Year’s greetings from Tablo and ensuing realization of how fast his daughter, Haru, is growing up. He introduces his brand new podcast Hey Tablo (02:43), and swiftly moves onto today’s topic, things that reminds him of how fast time is flying starting with the fact that Gangnam Style was released 14 years ago (05:04). This leads into a trip down the memory lane, searching what else is ‘hella old’. Realizing Born Hater is 12 years old (16:47), he reveals some behind-the-scenes stories about how they filmed the music video vertically when YouTube didn’t even support vertical videos. One of the search results that surprised everyone in the room was when they found out how old the first Harry Potter movie was (26:05). The conversation moves onto questioning whether humans are built to handle the amount of information we’re exposed to these days(33;36). Tablo then proposes his own theory about why people feel time is passing by faster (40:59) before wrapping the episode off.

Hey Tablo, how do you stay so... resilient, even after all that you've been through?

In this episode of Hey Tablo, the conversation centers on the concept of resilience and mental strength. Tablo begins by reflecting on his daughter Haru turning 16 and how he is often asked for advice on handling life's "rock bottom" moments (00:51). He clarifies that while he has many physical fears but mental resilience is a separate category entirely (04:06). He shares the formative memory of his childhood paper route in Canada, where he worked for a year to buy Christmas gifts only to have his older brother take the money, teaching him that one can always return from "zero" (11:08).

Tablo then explores how small, mundane choices can build a "friendship with risk," starting with his childhood discovery of mint chocolate chip ice cream (23:11). This leads to a discussion on the importance of self-assurance and ignoring the "terrible judges" of the world, a lesson he learned after a Sunday school teacher told him he was predestined for hell (35:12). Finally, he shares a moving story about a family in Mexico who gifted him a two-liter bottle of Coca-Cola, illustrating how gratitude for small milestones is the fuel necessary to survive the "marathon of life" (47:03). He concludes by encouraging listeners to find strength in their own ordinary moments before signing off (01:03:32)

In this episode of Hey Tablo, he explores the reason behind franchise films taking over the cinema industry. Going through the list of movies being released in 2026 (00:01), he realizes that all of them are franchise films (02:24). Being a lover of film, he shares his candid opinions on the pros and cons of franchise films and contemplates why they're taking over the box offices (19:40). The conversation takes a quick unexpected turn towards his 'horse problem' where he can't consume any content with horses in them. Tablo also mentions the same phenomenon happening in the music industry (38:39) and tries to suggest a solution (42:50).
