  • 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.
    A strictly "no advice" podcast.
    With the all India 21 day lockdown (Which I eerily predicted before hand), This episode has been shot in my own living room! It also is super handy to have a flatmate who is also an amazing comedian and writer! Talking to Naveen Richard is an everyday affair (we have been staying together for almost 3 years now), We covered topics ranging from childhood, films to even the ever looming existential crisis.
    You can Tweet/RUclips/ Instagram your questions/topics/queries discuss for the next week episode using the hashtag #simpleken.
    Simple Ken is available on all major podcasts platforms for free including Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Spotify, Stitcher, Gaana and Soundcloud.

    Thank you for the lovely comments about the setting of the house. The reason we can record here now is cause of the lockdown making it very quiet. During regular days, every 10 seconds a loud auto or motorbike goes by. Making it impossible to record anything. Ask your questions for the next episode here!

      #simpleken Hey Kenny...Great long recording. Please watch The Man from Earth ( It's the best movie I've ever watched).
      How do you know Megha Girish? I saw you in her music video with glasses and a goatee...(ruclips.net/video/jg-tZMZexXk/видео.html) You did color correction for that video. ( You said you were color blind...I know it's a lame joke but worth a shot)
      I want to mess with her about this (She's my cousin). Tell me some interesting information that she would freak out about.
      It would be crazy if you mention this in your next long recording ;)

I will forever be grateful to you .In a very quiet, well defined and extremely smart way, you have earned all of the appreciation and respect you constantly get.What a pleasant surprise, to find someone so open and honest.Thank you so much for your wisdom!

    Hi Kenny,
    My boyfriend and I watch your long recording on RUclips every day with our evening cup of chai. Sometimes we decide to watch the news, and then within 3mins, switch to your recording.
    I don’t have a question per se but just wanted to remind you and most good comedians like Naveen, Kanan etc. that you are doing a very important job. In the shit hole of a world that we’ve created, people can turn to you for a laugh. And in those moments of laughing, literally forget about all the bad things in life. So thank you!
    As long as you’re not saying / doing anything illegal, please ignore haters.
    And keep SimpleKen going!
    Lots of love!
    P.S. it’s the perfect name for this show because it shows a simpler side of you.

      I am not Kenny. But your comment makes me happy. :D
      This is for the first time I am reading comments on RUclips (call me jobless) and finding it very interesting. I should start reading comments instead of watching the videos. Might save me some time. However, I must say that this is very disappointing. Where is the "online hate" that I heard of? Don't be so nice guys.
      And Urmila lucky you, I suspect my boyfriend will never watch this show with me.
      Since the time I have started to follow Kenny's work my boyfriend doesn’t seem to be interested in him.
      And he is the same guy who was proposing to go Kenny's show when Kenny was somewhere around Vancouver. Back then I had minimal idea who Kenny Sebastian was. Tables turning, the world is burning.

      @@KennySebastian next time Naveen and you discuss Bollywood movies, just make sure that you pay extra attention to whether one actor is actually reacting to what another one is saying in a conversational scene or if he is just using the other's lines as his own cue. I find this to be the biggest problem in hindi cinema and I feel Naveen would agree with me since he shares my cynicism for Bollywood. Great video nonetheless..

    You really are one of my favourite comedian and I only watched comicstaan cause of you . The day you posted the first simple ken episode , I was very down that day but when I watched your video I cried while laughing . You really never fail to make me laugh .idk how but whenever you post on RUclips , I was sad at the beginning of the day but it ends with a smile . I feel like simple Ken was a great decision you made. And you know what the production on this video is great cause the background is gorgeous and idk how this(as in production and editing) works but I do know it's alot of work and effort to do it so I really want to say thanks for doing that and for really making me laugh. I appreciate you as a comedian and I hope everyone else does too . Hope you have a great day ❤️

    Your long recordings of you talking are the only thing that is keeping me sane these days and even otherwise. Thank you Kenny. Please don't stop na.
    I have a couple of questions; hope you see them:
    1. I can't afford therapy, are there any other feasible options?
    2. I don't have any friends friends. I have a couple of friends, but I can live without them. I am mostly like a loner. Is it normal to not have friends? Can a person lead a normal life without having at least one (real) friend?
    P.S: I'm jealous of the bond you have with abish, kanan, naveen etc.
    3. I think I am too selfish to love anyone unconditionally. So, does that mean I am not fit for relationships or marriage?
    4. When you realise that you are the toxic friend or partner, what's the next step you should take?
    5. I tend to think too much of doing the right thing everytime but it comes to actually doing it, I'll be #$%^ this... and always fall back to my old patterns... how do I break that cycle?
    Enough for today!😁

    Hey Kenny and Naveen,
    First of all , I love you both together. You both just naturally click, it's so easy for someone watching to connect with the stuffs you guys talk. I have observed Kenny laughing genuinely when ever Naveen cracks some jokes..I Just love it. Its so cool because it's so relatable - two friends hanging out together.
    Secondly, this video is awesome mainly because you guys answered the questions without sugarcoating it. Right from experiences of middle class people, spoiled rich brats, how some faces are slappable, unrealistic hero centric bollywood flims to how people like me watch stuffs and never put out a word whether the stuff is good/bad.( Relatable)
    Everything in this video was fucking honest and hell-bent.
    That's is why I am posting this comment ( my first one amongst all your videos I watched gazillion times whenever I am feeling lost or happy or sad or depressed or whatsoever....)
    You guys rock...keep doing this Kenny...it's natural and so is you.
    P.S. I am a big fan of Naveen. He is articulated, funny and natural. I loved the part when he said wasting a part of your life plays a great role in shaping it.

    That part when Naveen was pretending that Xavier is his cousin and not a character created by him reminded me of Skechy Behaviour's that sketch in which Kanan pretended that it's about the mental health issue when it's clearly a sketch🤣🤣🤣(maybe the situations aren't that same but somehow it's relatable)

    Hey Kenny, I went through a tough time in my last year of college and a lot of emotions I went through became a hard habit to break once I was done. When I started working I would go through the same emotions. Everytime I was stressed at work, I'd watch your videos during my lunch breaks and they helped. But I also realised that the content available was very limited and I didn't enjoy any other comedian's content that much. So thank you for putting out these podcasts. I've always got something I can tune into even while I'm traveling. I love how you just talk and I don't mean to be creepy but it's like hanging out with you. So basically, thank you :D

    Damn. That's why there's always time for Kenny.
    1. Can I just appreciate that sample sets and averaging reactions were brought into the process of human emotion processing, wow. Again, talking about that estranging feeling one never wants to feel. Don't want to be alone in feeling something a certain way that no one has ever. We all want to feel emotions alike. How ordinary.
    2. When something goes wrong with you, pave your way back to the point where you started losing it and then analyse. Backtracking. 100. Just got algorithms in this. Backtrack and traverse till desired solution is reached.
    3. Completely hit with the revelation you made Kenny; when you simplify and explain things that happen in the simplest words and simplest form, people forget the effort you put into drawing that conclusion. Sometimes even when the fact is about yourself and you tell your friends, like, 'yes I've observed I do this when this happens'. That shit took some serious mental battling dude, but others who agree with it instantly might not see the work behind it. Yep. So what I conclude is don't simplify things for others to just to relate to them. Simplify for yourself. Understand, don't reveal. Let others do their bit of work.
    4. That damn 'need to entertain'. And be engaging. It's exhausting to the limit that people just look at me when there's silence. Why do some people just feel that pressure to an extent where it translates into you doing a whole bunch of shit to just keep a connection going? It's a beautiful curse because I like being that person who is an entertainer and can always make people laugh. I just don't like when it becomes a liability.
    Till what point do you think Kenny that a hobby can be pursued like a hobby and not a career choice? I understand all you've talked about first having a safe option and only pursuing what you love to do when you have the means to. But, what about the thought that maybe you like doing something as a hobby BECAUSE it is a hobby? Pressure changes likeliness. We've all seen that in various spheres of life. #SimpleKen

    Hi Kenny, love all of your work! Completely agree with Naveen and your thoughts about existential crises. Having gone through it couple of times in the past 3 years, I have finally realized how not having a routine or not being busy can lead to overthinking, over-analyzing and penning down thoughts is very therapeutic and soothing.Thanks! Love listening to these topics that we normally don`t discuss frequently.

  • @ashwinirao4854
    @ashwinirao4854 4 года назад +2

    Having watched almost every video that is on your channel, I always knew I liked your personality, but these "really recordings of you talking" have really helped me pinpoint and appreciate what I really like.
    I've come to realize, that it's how you have always looked at situations from a different perspective. For example, in 6th grade, you'd be one of the very few individuals to have realized how useless the education system is, while the rest (including me) just went on with whatever we were told to do.
    Even your perspective on how sad it was that in art school people could not digest "draw anything". I really find it interesting that you seem to have this presence of mind that helps to you look at situations in a different light - which I think also helps with your comedy, while you observe things around you.
    #SimpleKen
    Do you recall any incidents/interactions/learnings that made you look at things this differently? Because, our education system has conditioned us to look at things in a certain way and not really mull over the 'why' of it - how did you escape? :)

    Man, I love Naveen and I love Kenny.
    I mean I'm enjoying the long recording anyways even I'm seeing it a year later, even if it's long/short,
    but the topics, not only they're massively relatable, but also it is giving everyone here a chance to explore so many different viewpoints and finding them all correct or precise or 'oh why didn't I think of that?'
    I just regret of watching it a year late but kind of justifying myself that I was indeed busy last year when everyone else was experiencing lockdown.
    But I'm binge watching the whole thing and the immense thoughtfulness I'm deriving from it is driving me insane.
    Just so I don't lose track of some amazing things you and Naveen and all the people have said here, I'm noting too many things down and now when I look at it I feel really good about the whole thing.

    Pre.S. I know there are very slim chances of you reading this because its a 3-month-old video but I just wanted to let you know the impact your videos hold.
    People who shit on the production quality of this video are just shit themselves. Because honestly, this setting is more raw and homely than the one in the studio.
    So I moved to Canada like six months ago and I'm in this period of going through major home-sickness; this video reminded me that what I also miss about home is the sound of birds chirping in the morning and that just brought a huge ass smile on my face.
    I watch/ re-watch your videos every day because it reminds me of home and it takes my mind off of the homesickness anxiety that I have been battling.
    Much love, Ken.

    Every time I start a new hobby, like reading something new, baking, drawing, I want to get the basics right so I look at other people’s stuff and do it the exact same way. Yeah, it’s copying but I learn a lot from copying. (I’ve been told I’m bad for that) the problem is that after I have learnt the basic and know my stuff, I still look at other’s things and try to replicate it. I think that it is my fear of finding out that I’m incompetent without guidance, have you ever felt anything similar?

    I loved the point about the discussion about how fun is very subjective and personal. I've had numerous discussions with people about this, why someone who is not going out on weekends, not sleeping till late, eating at home, not drinking/smoking pot doesn't qualify as having fun.
