Is it "okay" to laugh during loss & heartbreak? | Hey Tablo Ep. 4

Jan 20th, 2026 12:00 PM

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) Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
