A big discussion that is happening in the comedy circle is the conflict of investing time into social media. What is not apparent that being a social media creator and a stand up comedian are two different fields. It’s understandable that most artists don’t want to commodify their art and also don’t want to approach their work like a business strategy.
In this episode of SimpleKen, We discuss in depth about how we approach this behemoth called social media. Kumar’s approach is still the same even post becoming a full time comedians while mine is the opposite, I always approached it as a part of my job. Which is marketing. I do use social media as a rough note book of my ideas as well. I had a blast hearing all the different perspectives. Hope you enjoy the full episode on YouTube or google podcasts/Apple Podcasts as well.

This sounds very straightforward but the context of the previous conversation (we talk about this for over an hour on the full episode) is we start off in our 20s being convinced by our employers that passion is what you should be working for. Most jobs can’t just be sustained with passion. It’s okay to not romanticise your job. You do your role well and get paid accordingly. It leads to a much healthier approach and leaves your personal & social life in a better place. Atleast that’s the conclusion we all arrived at together.
Aneesa Cheema (@aneesacheema ) is a lawyer at the Mumbai High Court and is sharing her ups and down with her relationship with law and her professional life overall. Hope you watch the full episode and hear out the other guests like Ranjeev Carvalho @ranjeev.carvalho (Counsel at the Mumbai High Court) and Aniket Dasgupta who is a producer at Vice India. Watch for free on YouTube or listen to the audio on any podcast platform (ex: Apple Podcast, Google Podcast, Spotify etc)
This episode talks about how overwhelming understanding the law is, how ignorance of it isn't tolerated and what we can do to change our attitude towards it (or maybe we just pretend to). All of the guests (including me ) moved to Mumbai for our careers so there is a lot of millennial frustration of figuring out our lives while also getting used to the mega city that is Mumbai.

He used to work in a non-art field and I could see his soul being drained everytime I ran into him. Fast forward so many years, he has found his calling. Few are so lucky to find what they are meant to do and make such a successful career out of it!
Episode 26 with @Rahul Subramanian is one of our most loved and most watched & listen to episodes. My favourite excerpt from the episode was regretting taking our school and colleges for granted.
Hope you enjoy the full episode on YouTube or listen to it on any audio podcast platform :)
Shooting episode 27 was so much fun cause I am very lucky to have friends who are so insightful. Catch full episodes of SimpleKen on my channel and on all audio podcast platforms.

This is the second time I have brought in a group of comics together but with a connecting theme! Got my favourites from each season of Comicstaan. I realised I would love to see the three different perspectives from comedians who have had their lives permanently changed by the show.
We also take in questions from the audience about best friends, talking to our parents while they share their personal anecdotes about the comedy scene in India and their own beliefs they had to get over.

Back with another episode where we got questions primarily from young teens. An age where you are super confused and begging for some clarity from the world and yourself. This episode marks moving back to Mumbai from Goa and the adjustment that followed. Finished up my honeymoon in Europe and back to making videos for my lovely audience. We cover topics such as expressing grief, dating young, career paths and just figuring what you love. Hope you enjoy the episode. Let me know in the comments!

In my new series “Kenny explores”, we explore the origins of expressions we use (or don’t use) in our daily lives.
I love the history behind the seemingly mundane things that our part of our daily lives.
I am very excited to share this with you. In future episodes, we will also explore history of words, habits that arise from them and maybe even why friends ditch dinner plans.

Hopefully we will go there again and get to experience the non-city aspect of Nepal.

Our first vlog is here! Also my first 4K vlog on YouTube :)
April is a month of birthdays in my family :) We join my aunt in Alleppey and my dad in Kodai in this birthday travel vlog to Kerala and Tamil Nadu!
#travel #vlog #family #birthday #wife #dad #kerala #tamilnadu #kodaikanal #alleppey #india #southindia #bananachips #appam #selfshot #youtube
What's changed is that I am married and grown a lot from my previous vlogs. So I was excited to show you how my life has changed with Trace while also expressing my love for Kerala and Tamil Nadu.
Alleppey is super special to me cause my aunt stays there. She is a person I have always looked up to cause she is wise beyond her years and a mother figure to my dad. Celebrating Tracys birthday as she also met her for the first time was important to me and made documenting it seem super vital.
Cut to my dad making an impromptu plan to chill at Kodai for his birthday made it serendipitous. The vlog was coming together so naturally! How about we combine the april born babies into one video.
I have put a lot of love and care into this, It revitalised a lot of things I have always felt a deep connection with.
Shooting, editing, storytelling, family, home and sharing it with my audience in a special way.
Would love to know what you guys think.

It's a crime that we haven't called back my friend and legend Biswa. We have the most emotionally fuelled conversations in private that shooting one in front of camera is a no brainer. We talk about some of my favourite topics like profiting from art, authenticity, success and of-course why things are cringe. A very sarcastic, raw and chaotic episode of Simpleken. Hope you enjoy this long podcast!
We also have our first brand association with Fi. a simple and easy to use finance app where you can open a savings account and start knowing and growing your monies. Simplifying saving is a far more complicated thing than we perceive it to be and Fi helps ease that.
