I learned the various aspects of friendship in this lovely conversation with Prashasti and Saurav. The way they support each other in ways that enable space, growth and also a chance to be vulnerable was so eye opening to me. Through out the episode I kept bringing up how envious I was of such a wonderful friendship. We also answered a lot of questions from the audience. A lot of laugh out loud moments in the episode with topics that are so specific to our lifestyle that I am so excited for a...
Talking to Ankur Warikoo is exactly like experiencing his content online. He is on point, clear and very charismatic. You know him as a successful businessman and now a full time content creator who talks about finance, motivation and recently health! We covered topics ranging from our relationship with money, the differences we see in generations and why trust is important at work and in your personal relationships. Hope you enjoy this conversation and let me know what parts engaged yo...
I am very excited to introduce a new sub-format of Simpleken. Two types of people! This was inevitable cause having such funny friends leads to us playing a lot of games. So why not a comedic one? We have wonderful guests like @AakashGupta , @ShreejaChaturvedi and @shamikchakrabarti featuring in this one! A debate game where we choose a topic and defend it! We have topics from Outside food and Inside food to Relaxing holidays to an activity filled one! I don't want to s...
I have been a big admirer of Anirban's writing for a long time. It's a shame I haven't hung out with him as much as I want to. This episode I wanted to explore a topic we seldom talk about in this episode (And not seen in most other online conversations)...being a first time dad as a millennial. Obviously having a child is primarily a mothers journey but why not talk about the clueless man next to his partner watching and wondering what does a father do in 2024? This conversation was fun, lig...
It brings me great pleasure to release the first episode of Simpleken in 2024 with my close friend Kanan Gill. It's exciting to announce his first published novel "Acts of God" that is on sale right now on Amazon.We talk about being trapped in blind spots, moisturising, recurring problems, self esteem , healthy relationship with work and suffering. As you can see, we covered a range of topics that most would call "alarming". Hope you enjoy this episode and hope you have a great new year ahead...
I am a fan. Hoezaay is the effortless comedian who blurs the line between artist and art. Hoezaay is funny and what Hoezaay does is also funny. The sweet, calm and chill vibe that he exudes is also what I got to experience while sitting down with him for the first time (Usually we are standing). I always wanted to pick his brain on many things like navigating through so many decades of being in the Indian entertainment business. We spoke about his family, how he started and his strictly finan...
It's good to be back after so long. After touring America and Europe I was itching to do a Simpleken episode. I had spoken to Nirmal and Abishek that I was very keen to pick their brains about their journey so far. I love also exploring what makes two very creative minds gravitate towards each other. They spoke about how they work together, feeling alienation from the scene and what the future lies for them. Hope you enjoy watching this as much as I did._______________________________________...
It's been 3 years! I had to celebrate this occasion (and Valentines Day) by bringing four experts on love, relationships and life for this episode. I was giddy with excitement to pick their brains on topics that I love over analysing. It's always a riot with 4 fine comedians. We got a collection of lovely questions from our audience including thoughts on cheating, parents, why we love and love languages. Hopefully you enjoy watching (or listening) to the 3 year anniversary episode of simpleto...
Having Vir on SimpleKen was a long time coming. I picked his brain on how he navigated through the initial days of his career, his support in the industry , how he deals with the constant press chatter and how he plans his steps ahead. A career that involves television, movies, music and stand up, An hour of conversation didn't feel enough. It was a great way to bring the new year in with a brand new episode. ____________________________Simple Ken is hosted by Kenny Sebastian, A stand up...
In this solo episode, I share my biggest recent difficulty...Breaking up with friends! I also cover some recent life updates, the bubble of being single for too long and getting comfortable, the guilt of being somebodies child in India and how school goers are succumbing to serious mental health concerns.____________________________Simple Ken is hosted by Kenny Sebastian, A stand up comedian known for his observational humour and quirky stage presence.A simple podcast about tackling the weekl...
It brings me great pleasure to welcome you into my most hardcore-comedy-friendship group. The conversations I have with Rohan, Shreemayee (Weepli) and Kumar could be too intense for the novice comedy viewer. As four comics who enjoy sarcasm, self aware gossip and over the top generalisations, I couldn't hold my excitement for this one. We talk about how we deal with the over load of information we receive on a daily basis, the misuse of "emotional investment" and get into a classic Kumar Varu...
It's not everyday you have Mumbai high court lawyers on your show. Aneesa & Ranjeev also happen to be my closest friends. Adding to the mix is a producer from Vice India, my good friend Aniket Dasgupta.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 frust...
In this episode, I 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.____________________________Simple Ken is hosted by Kenny Sebastian, A stand up co...
A episode where me focus on questions sent from mostly 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...
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 ap...
Yay! I got married. It feels like a weight off my shoulder to not be so secretive about my private life anymore. I talk about tying the knot and also questions from you guys. From exam pressure, to moving on from relationships and perception of wealth, This episode has all of that!____________________________Simple Ken is hosted by Kenny Sebastian, A stand up comedian known for his observational humour and quirky stage presence.A simple podcast about tackling the weekly conflicts of a comedia...
1I know I took a 4 month break ( I say 6 months by mistake in the video), I just wanted to say that I did release three crowd work videos in the middle during that period (so likeeee) . It has been quite hectic but I wanted to come back to SimpleKen when I truly missed it and wanted to come back to it! And boy it feels good to be back! I hope you guys have had a good few months in between. Whatever I experienced has come out nicely in this episode. We discuss a wide range of questions in this ...
It felt great to come back to a solo episode. I was really excited to answer questions ranging from Toxic Positivity, Privacy, Aspirations, Self Awareness and the classic 'Motivation'. Easily the bleakest month India has had in terms of COVID. Hope you and your family is safe and this episode gives you some respite for an hour. ______________________________________________Simple Ken is hosted by Kenny Sebastian, A stand up comedian known for his observational humour and quirky stage pre...
This is what I always wanted to do with Simpleken. Have a lot of comics together discussing purely our writing process. I am very blessed to be in this field while being surround by such talented minds. To be able to share ideas and concepts with each other is probably the highest privilege I enjoy. We discussed our insecurities, our personal crisis and also our guilty pleasures! Hope you guys can take something away from it and it hopefully adds to your creative and problem solvi...
Getting Rahul Subramanian on the show was always an eventuality. What better way to record it than in my place. We spoke about our insecurities, our paths to comedy and why we never get around to changing our most stubborn habits.____________________________Simple Ken is hosted by Kenny Sebastian, A stand up comedian known for his observational humour and quirky stage presence.A simple podcast about tackling the weekly conflicts of a comedian.
