JR Tabanda: Celebrating Everyday Stories on the Time Capsule Show
Literally, everything that people say, everything that people put into our time capsule is what reflects The Century, and I think it would be absolutely horrific if we just ignored all of the social and cultural changes that we're seeing in society.
What happens when you give everyday people a platform to share their unique stories? In this episode of 'Podcaster Stories', Danny Brown chats with Joenrhuz 'JR' Tabanda, the voice behind the Time Capsule Show. JR’s podcast stands out by asking six thoughtful questions that help guests define their lives in the 21st century. The aim? To offer hope and connection, especially to young listeners who might feel isolated.
JR opens up about the inspiration behind the show and how the pandemic provided a unique opportunity to bring their vision to life. With a team dedicated to capturing timely and powerful narratives, the Time Capsule Show strives to reflect the cultural shifts we're experiencing today. One of JR’s key points is the importance of giving guests a voice, even if their perspectives differ from those of the hosts.
Growing up in a Filipino family, JR was expected to pursue a career in medicine. However, he chose a different path, one filled with risks and self-discovery. This journey has not only shaped his podcast but also his approach to life. As a tennis enthusiast, JR draws parallels between the sport and life’s challenges, emphasizing the art of making a comeback.
Tune in to hear JR and Danny discuss these themes and more, offering a fresh perspective on the power of storytelling and the value of open dialogue. Whether you're a podcast lover or someone seeking inspiration, this episode provides a compelling look at how everyday stories can shape our understanding of the world.
