Kenny, I Mary Joy want to thank you for helping me come out to some extent, when I lost my husband Joy last year to corona in April. It was my son Stephen who introduced your stand up shows, I m sure I smiled after ages. God bless you n Tracy. We were really isolated inspite of having relatives who couldn't visit us. Thanks.
It always feels good to see an episode of Simple Ken. It's interesting to hear your or your guest’s point of view on certain aspects of life. Sorry, I don’t have the courage to write a question (I’m just starting to leave comments, I should have done that a long time ago !). I’ll think of an interesting question to ask you one day. Thank you for this new episode :)
I think I get Rohan's perspective. It's like, you are focused on specific things that you want to improve upon, and anything other than that doesn't matter. And that's a good thing also, I mean there are soooo many things out there, and if you are distributing your attention to everything, the end result wouldn't be effective. It's like having a purpose. For example, this pseudo-wise comment I made here just to get a reply. 😇
Hey? so I'm a teenager that watches simple ken so you know my question is going to be existential. Does it ever bother you how the internet might see you as a past version of yourself? Because you've been putting out content for a long time and people are discovering some of it now. And because of that do you think people sometimes expect you to do certain things because of what you've already done? And lastly do you only hate slam poetry or just poetry in general? Btw I'm a huge fan can't wait for the next episode or whatever you do next. #simpleken
Kenny, please never stop these amazing videos. It's Diwali and I am outside of my home city, away from friends and family and these conversations just help one feel connected and less alone in a weird way. Virtual and one sided and yet we (all your audience) feel so heard and seen, especially due to the format of taking questions from audience which are so relatable. Here's mine if it catches your interest: I don't think I am taking to aging very well. I turned 31 this year and although I joke about it, I keep missing my younger days and wonder if the best of life is behind me. This is scary because you also recall shots you should have taken or things you could have done differently. Do you feel good about growing up, and if so what about this passage of time makes you feel excited? :p Lots of love to you and all your amazing friends and peers ❤️ #SimpleKen
This episode was so great! I love the way Kumar Varun and Shreemayee Das talk about emotions. They have such an understanding of them and it's really inspiring.
Just what I needed right now ... A true therapy it is🙃 Also not to mention.. it's already been 6 months.. but I still want to thank you #Kenny for wishing me on my birthday. It actually became the best one after I heard you wishing me as my partner reached out to you after knowing how madly I admire you. You're a truly humble cool genuine down to earth person along with being a kick-ass comedian. Thank you so much🥺🥰
I really find it difficult to settle myself up at times in my mental and emotional zone.But I know I would feel better if this is something I can really walk through inspite of emotional barriers and not getting sucked to it.
Hey Kenny! This was such an interesting episode :) Am so glad to be an Ardent Simple Ken listener (haven't missed a single intro song😎) Thank you so much for making this long recording of you talking.
Hey Kenny, I have been listening to your podcast for quite some time now on Spotify, they're really really amazing, so glad ur doing this. (PS: alsoo, I just liked all your podcast UA-cam videos, no im not a weirdo, just wanted to send in some love on UA-cam too.) Thank you yo. All the happiness and health to you, tracy and your loved ones. Cheers 🙌
Kenny, watching this episode just made my day much better. I needed this just at the right time. I feel less shitty being away from home on diwali. Thank you sooo much for this,Kenny. Also, I watch every episode of simple ken just to hear you talk. Your voice is sooooo soothing😭❤️Love you😁🫂
#simpleken , Hi Kenny, I am Arul 26yrs old. I have been watching you since i was 18 years of age. Thank you for still inspiring me. Journey with u started with "2 gravies". I was always know to be as a "funny guy" in the group from my school days to 9 - 5 job. It even made me take pressure on myself to be funny when i meet new grp of people. Which i think pshychologicaly i was expecting validation from every people i meet. But on the other hand standup actually grew on me, started loving the after feel a gud stand up video gives and it became my rabbit hole and i wanted to do something like tat as well. I tried my first open mic recently and i bombed so bad. And it broke me since i managed to be funny in all these stages of my life with all the different grup of ppl i met but this experience shook me. I sincerely in the place right now to stop trying comedy anymore. It started a severe self doubt on myself since being funny was my identity i ever know. I couldnt comprehend this expereince maturely. Is bombing a normal thing to happen? Would you suggest to try openmics again or its stage comic completely a diffrent ball game rather than just being funny with your friends. My intention was never numbers or tickets or even a show (if i get one in the future*) i just wanted to give that rabbit hole experience to the people that listens to me. Thanks you for patiently reading it thru. Love you Kenney and whoever gonna be on this episode of your long recording. Stay safe.
Kenn, you're such a blessing man. The phase I'm going through in life right now is kinda unexplainable. On one hand, I am trying to navigate through a broken relationship, and on the other hand, I am discovering new insights about myself every day, going deeper, and in that process, finding much more clarity than I have ever had for my future. My day starts with re-watching a simple Ken episode, and it sets the perspective for the day. It's like opening a random page of your favourite book, and finding the answer that you needed the most. Just like you'd love to pay 1 crore to watch John Mayer speak for an hour, I would do it for you. You're the elder brother we all want in our lives. If you're reading this, just know you're impacting lots of lives like me. And although I have lots of questions that I could ask here, I believe I'll find the answers re-watching your previous talks. Thanks for existing! ✨
The thing that you guys talked about around 35:00 minutes and that goes on for 5-10 mins is exactly what is also said in the book "Stop Worrying and Start Living" - Dale Carnegie And it starts making sense as Rohan says about you start dealing things better when you accept the worst possible thing as the outcome.
#simpleken hey Kenny! Love the long recording so much, it connects on a personal level to me. So while listening to KV about spinning everything into something positive even if it’s something very small and trivial because “joy of little things” and all :p. But another thing that was relatable was that he mentioned it gets to a point where it starts getting annoying to people around you. It has a name and its called “toxic positivity”. Where do we draw the line? I believe it will differ person to person but this is something I am saying every other day nowadays to conclude something 😅 kudos and keep going! We love you!
I am currently reading 'The courage to be disliked' and it is all about this! You are responsible for your existing and care just about what you do and think! What others think, do, behave is not our responsibility. "Sepration of tasks' they say!! Damn! This was beautiful!
#simpleken Hi Kenny! Love listening to Simple Ken while I'm doing other chores. I'm 26 years old. Recently, I've been feeling like everyone around me speaks at a very surface level. There's no depth to what they talk about, which makes me not want to engage in conversations. Has this ever happened with you, where you've felt like, people need to evolve a lot more- wither by reading or living more experiences in life?
I'm surprised that no one in the comments is talking about KV's t-shirt..... Being a Tamil girl, I literally laughed my ass out when I noticed it for the first time 🤣😂
Instead of crumbling me down it was a major relief the bit about emotional investment misconception. 🍅 Edit1. Imagining worst case scenario is the best hack.
What a way to start to Monday! I first read about this worst case scenario life hack in Dale Carnegie's How to stop worrying and start living. Thanks guys for reminding it!
Not trying to ruin the vibe or something but these stuff discussed in this podcast like being obligated to something because you're in a relationship or thinking of it as duty are all discussed in Mahabharath which is sooooo frikkin old. They've even beautifully explained different solutions on how you can get out of it without feeling guilty!
Perception of reality is diffrent from the reality and it's often disappointing......someone's opinion may or may not be reality....which can be misleading....you guys should develop critical thinking and have a strong and really understanding of depth of the thoughts.......before stating it on public platforms.
All the thoughts are irrelevant until unless we decide it's relevance... so it's completely up to you;i m just suggesting bro...... read Friedrich Nietzsche's work on moral commitment. ✌
Hey Kenny, this episode helped me a lot, I have been consuming a lot of content that talks about good habits like working out, journaling, self help books etc, like most people on social media lately. I want to adopt some of these habits but I also find myself questioning whether these things are just part of hustle culture and won’t really make my life any better, because more often than not I feel like I’m unable to meet the standards of these people and end up shitting on myself even more. WITHOUT GIVING ADVICE because I know you can’t, what’s your take on these “good habits” that people talk about, does it actually help or is it just Instagram envy and consumerism at its finest. Love your show #simpleken
Hi, I'm not Kenny but I've spent a considerable amount of time thinking about the "good habits" that you mention and it has led me to a question that helps me pick which habits are good for me: what goal/intention is the said habit serving? Do I want to work out because I want a stronger, more agile body or is it because everyone else is doing it? Do I want to journal to put it out on the internet as content (which is not usually my goal) or I just want a space to organise my day/week? And the self-help books: read something from the author (most of them have blogs) and then decide whether you'll benefit from it. The thing that helps me fight hustle culture is the question of whatever it is I am doing is it out of peer pressure or becoming a part of the rat race or am I doing it because I actually find it nourishing and joyful or it would lead me to fulfillment. So yes, most of these things come from ideas that make life more fulfilling but they can be done without bowing to consumerism: for instance I don't need a ton of stationery to journal, max two pens and a notebook without the effort of making it look like a masterpiece because that is not what I'm aiming for eventually. Hope this helps you find answers you're seeking
#simpleken Hi Kenny! I've been following your work since about 2016 and I've been a huge fan ever since!! Love these long recordings so much :) I've been in quite a weird place lately where i don't find myself motivated to do anything at all, I know exactly what I need to do to achieve all the things I want and I also have a rough idea of how long too. but, I just can't seem to bring myself to start at all. I guess i just wanted to know if you or anyone you've come across has felt this way? and if yes, how did you/they deal with it and how did you/they overcome it? and if no, what do you think about it? I know the question seems very vague, but it's because it has to do many multiple lifestyle changes together and it maybe seems too overwhelming, but i just wanted to get someone else's opinion and what better place to do that than on the internet right? :3
Hey Kenneth! Not really a question, but one of my "close friends" is Malayali, and well--I'm not. Are there any phrases I can just casually drop in a conversation--just to flip her out, or maybe impress her :P #simpleken
I still can't believe Shreemayee was my Tinder match. And we've had so many great conversations together. I remember her telling me how shw was falling in love with Bombay when she had just moved and she's going to explore stand-up comedy. Funny part is, I once went to an open mic and bumped into her. Her set was about her experience with Tinder. Won't lie, but I found my influence on some of her characters amd my friends laughed at those character traits too.
Hey Kenny .. I am not on social media.. don't know even if you read this or not.. But I had to share this.. I don't know...why.. it doesn't even make any sense.. You're coming to Kolkata on 27th Nov,which is in itself a dream come true for me cause you rarely come to Kolkata ..I was so so eagerly waiting for this. Unfortunately the same day CAT exam is happening.. and I've already give it last year got a decent percentile.. so it's important too.. Today admit came & my exam center is way too far from the auditorium.. also with an evening show. I don't even know if I can make it on time.. I'm sure students who are giving the exam as well as waiting for attending your show can understand how I feel right know.. though may be there are very few people with this much bad luck. I know it'll be my biggest regret if I can't see you even when you're in my city .. Really don't know what to do. I wish it happens some other day or other time. I don't even know if there will be a next time..next chance. I'm not some crazy random fan.. I really admire you & following you since 7-8 years. This was like a golden opportunity for me. Well.. for sure everyone on the show will have a blast to see you.. I'll regret it a lot if I won't be able to make it Lots of love ❤️❤️❤️❤️ from kolkata
Kenny, can you take up my question the next time you are having stand up comedians? I have little insights through a podcast about the writing process of vipul goyal. How does discipline play a role in the writing process; or do the jokes suddenly occur to you and you compile them; or both?
Kuman Varun said dont follow the norms , do what you feel like doing . But not everyone can go with the flow , some people follow others so that they could have a direction where they are heading . Always doing what you feel like many times have uncertain consequences and not everyone is ready for it . And at the end of the podcast I feel Rohan should post more of his contents according to whatever ALGORITHM says .
If you observe carefully, Kenny is very different when he is with one person and when in a group, it's not bad nor right, but looks like he tries and be funny, nice
Just what I needed right now ... A true therapy it is🙃 Also not to mention.. it's already been 6 months.. but I still want to thank you #Kenny for wishing me on my birthday. It actually became the best one after I heard you wishing me as my partner reached out to you how madly I admire you. You're a truly humble cool genuine down to earth person along with being a kick-ass comedian. Thank you so much🥺🥰
Do you guys need a new social media platform for yourself curated just for creators like you. I simply like the ideas that came out during the end part.
Sorry to comment but Rohan Desai is so confused and narcissistic at the same time, it get super hilarious to listen to him. But it was great listening to all four of you :)
Following a system propagated by Jayprakash Narayan who said all should give up last names and be known as only Kumar (Master) or Kumari (Miss) XYZ as a way to do away with the caste system of the country. Many many Biharis out of all the communities largely and wholeheartedly followed this for a very very long time.
Hello Ken, this podcast was really insightful, especially KV's words. I had a bestfriend, my whole world revolved around her, and she got a bf and now suddenly I am not the most important person in her life. I later realised that I was never the most important person and I hated a lot of things about her but I still miss her a lot probably because I have no one to share things with. I am not good looking so it doesn't make sense to ask you this but how do you make friends with others especially the opposite gender.
Kenny, I Mary Joy want to thank you for helping me come out to some extent, when I lost my husband Joy last year to corona in April. It was my son Stephen who introduced your stand up shows, I m sure I smiled after ages. God bless you n Tracy. We were really isolated inspite of having relatives who couldn't visit us. Thanks.
I am so glad I had such a positive effect on you and your family. I hope you all are doing better now. Sending my love and prayers ❤
@@KennySebastian nice
@@KennySebastian Thanks
I believe an hour long lecture by KV will fix me.
KV is a gem. Every time I've heard him I've felt so enlightened
KV was such an awaited guest. Such a wise person. You simply want to listen to him all day long. Please do more episodes with him, Kenny
It always feels good to see an episode of Simple Ken.
It's interesting to hear your or your guest’s point of view on certain aspects of life.
Sorry, I don’t have the courage to write a question (I’m just starting to leave comments, I should have done that a long time ago !). I’ll think of an interesting question to ask you one day.
Thank you for this new episode :)
I think I get Rohan's perspective.
It's like, you are focused on specific things that you want to improve upon, and anything other than that doesn't matter.
And that's a good thing also, I mean there are soooo many things out there, and if you are distributing your attention to everything, the end result wouldn't be effective.
It's like having a purpose.
For example, this pseudo-wise comment I made here just to get a reply.
😇
Wish Granted !!
What is the process of becoming friends with KV?
Hey? so I'm a teenager that watches simple ken so you know my question is going to be existential.
Does it ever bother you how the internet might see you as a past version of yourself? Because you've been putting out content for a long time and people are discovering some of it now.
And because of that do you think people sometimes expect you to do certain things because of what you've already done?
And lastly do you only hate slam poetry or just poetry in general?
Btw I'm a huge fan can't wait for the next episode or whatever you do next.

KV is so eloquent man it's admirable (also where can i buy that cool anirudh lyric t-shirt)
Fullyfilmy has a bunch of em ig...Or if you're from Chennai you can find em in any roadside shops.
Shreemayee looks like Nadia from Matchmaking.
Just what I needed right now ...
A true therapy it is🙃
Also not to mention.. it's already been 6 months.. but I still want to thank you #Kenny for wishing me on my birthday.

Listening to KV is a delight
55:30 Varun asked Kenny to edit it in the sense ki you can cut it from the episode if you want to and Kenny macha cut it into a separate reel😂😂
Cause that how epic his rant was :)
@@KennySebastian that toh it was. Kumar Varun Supremacy!
Like how you are dropping lil' hindi (beech beech m) 🤭
If KV writes a book, I shall be the first buyer!
I thought I am the only crazy one who reads old newspapers and clears backlogs. KV ♥️🌻
Kumar varun puts things so beautifully in perspective
Not kenny simping for kanan subtly
Such a nice insightful panel and discussion! Just what I needed to hear.
Kumar varun is such a balanced calm person like just a good view of a valley from a mountain top🧘♂️
The thing that you guys talked about around 35:00 minutes and that goes on for 5-10 mins is exactly what is also said in the book
"Stop Worrying and Start Living" - Dale Carnegie
And it starts making sense as Rohan says about you start dealing things better when you accept the worst possible thing as the outcome.
#simpleken hey Kenny! Love the long recording so much, it connects on a personal level to me. So while listening to KV about spinning everything into something positive even if it’s something very small and trivial because “joy of little things” and all :p. But another thing that was relatable was that he mentioned it gets to a point where it starts getting annoying to people around you. It has a name and its called “toxic positivity”.

#simpleken Hi Kenny! Love listening to Simple Ken while I'm doing other chores. I'm 26 years old.
Recently, I've been feeling like everyone around me speaks at a very surface level. There's no depth to what they talk about, which makes me not want to engage in conversations. Has this ever happened with you, where you've felt like, people need to evolve a lot more- wither by reading or living more experiences in life?
This is very relatable.
I feel the same way
I'm surprised that no one in the comments is talking about KV's t-shirt..... Being a Tamil girl, I literally laughed my ass out when I noticed it for the first time 🤣😂
What it means can u please tell us?
Anyone can listen to Kumar Varun any time 🙌🙌
KV reads every fuckin newspaper 📰 what?
When did Ken start calling it a podcast, and not "a long video of me talking"?
Instead of crumbling me down it was a major relief the bit about emotional investment misconception. 🍅
Edit1. Imagining worst case scenario is the best hack.
Thank you!
Many congratulations to the newlyweds! 🤗
Loveeeed listening to the guests!! What beautiful perspectives presented in a funny manner😊😇
What a way to start to Monday! I first read about this worst case scenario life hack in Dale Carnegie's How to stop worrying and start living. Thanks guys for reminding it!

I rate this podcast 9.5out of 11 bananas 🍌🍌
Liked even before listening. Just for the people on the panel...
just want to put out here that my favourite thing about instagram was kv's stories and the songs
Not trying to ruin the vibe or something but these stuff discussed in this podcast like being obligated to something because you're in a relationship or thinking of it as duty are all discussed in Mahabharath which is sooooo frikkin old. They've even beautifully explained different solutions on how you can get out of it without feeling guilty!
These guests are my favourite people ❤️
Very fun episode.
Perception of reality is diffrent from the reality and it's often disappointing......someone's opinion may or may not be reality....which can be misleading....you guys should develop critical thinking and have a strong and really understanding of depth of the thoughts.......before stating it on public platforms.
You aren’t being as helpful as you think lol
All the thoughts are irrelevant until unless we decide it's relevance... so it's completely up to you;i m just suggesting bro...... read Friedrich Nietzsche's work on moral commitment. ✌
Hey Kenny, this episode helped me a lot, I have been consuming a lot of content that talks about good habits like working out, journaling, self help books etc, like most people on social media lately.

Hi, I'm not Kenny but I've spent a considerable amount of time thinking about the "good habits" that you mention and it has led me to a question that helps me pick which habits are good for me: what goal/intention is the said habit serving?

Rohan Gave up US to live in Surat😂❤️
31:40 Baghban cries in the corner.

Love KV’s T-Shirt 😂 “Aaniye Pudunga vendam“ 😃
What does that mean?
Exactly the middle ground
Hey Kenneth! Not really a question, but one of my "close friends" is Malayali, and well--I'm not. Are there any phrases I can just casually drop in a conversation--just to flip her out, or maybe impress her :P #simpleken
KV is an amazing human
I still can't believe Shreemayee was my Tinder match. And we've had so many great conversations together. I remember her telling me how shw was falling in love with Bombay when she had just moved and she's going to explore stand-up comedy.

Hey Kenny .. I am not on social media.. don't know even if you read this or not..
But I had to share this..
I don't know...why.. it doesn't even make any sense..
You're coming to Kolkata on 27th Nov,which is in itself a dream come true for me cause you rarely come to Kolkata ..I was so so eagerly waiting for this.
Unfortunately the same day CAT exam is happening.. and I've already give it last year got a decent percentile.. so it's important too..
Today admit came & my exam center is way too far from the auditorium.. also with an evening show.
I don't even know if I can make it on time..
I'm sure students who are giving the exam as well as waiting for attending your show can understand how I feel right know.. though may be there are very few people with this much bad luck.
I know it'll be my biggest regret if I can't see you even when you're in my city ..
Really don't know what to do.
I wish it happens some other day or other time.
I don't even know if there will be a next time..next chance.
I'm not some crazy random fan.. I really admire you & following you since 7-8 years. This was like a golden opportunity for me.
Well.. for sure everyone on the show will have a blast to see you.. I'll regret it a lot if I won't be able to make it
Lots of love ❤️❤️❤️❤️ from kolkata

Biggest difference between comics and stand up producers ? Black filtered Shure mics!
Kenny, can you take up my question the next time you are having stand up comedians? I have little insights through a podcast about the writing process of vipul goyal. How does discipline play a role in the writing process; or do the jokes suddenly occur to you and you compile them; or both?
This is another KV comment
My manager from office uses that phrase , sweat in peace, so that you don't bleed in war!!
Kuman Varun said dont follow the norms , do what you feel like doing . But not everyone can go with the flow , some people follow others so that they could have a direction where they are heading . Always doing what you feel like many times have uncertain consequences and not everyone is ready for it . And at the end of the podcast I feel Rohan should post more of his contents according to whatever ALGORITHM says .
If you observe carefully, Kenny is very different when he is with one person and when in a group, it's not bad nor right, but looks like he tries and be funny, nice
💕💕🔥keep making reels too.. Came here after watching kumar's monologue on reel 😅
Just what I needed right now ...
A true therapy it is🙃
Also not to mention.. it's already been 6 months.. but I still want to thank you #Kenny for wishing me on my birthday.
It actually became the best one after I heard you wishing me as my partner reached out to you how madly I admire you.
You're a truly humble cool genuine down to earth person along with being a kick-ass comedian.
Thank you so much🥺🥰
Do you guys need a new social media platform for yourself curated just for creators like you. I simply like the ideas that came out during the end part.
Insightful✨
This adaptation they are talking about is called hedonic adaptation btw
Algo bola krne ka toh karne ka!!!
Kumar Varun I so want to be like you! What a gem!! Clarity of thought, your high iq and even higher eq.
there is an argument against hope but that's not an argument for hopelessness. from where the need for hope arises?
Sorry to comment but Rohan Desai is so confused and narcissistic at the same time, it get super hilarious to listen to him.
But it was great listening to all four of you :)

if you're a protagonist it must be a Anurag Kashyap movie.
The reason why I clicked jhatak se on the last simpleken ep was due to the job satisfaction gif.
Rohan says nice things in the most annoying way possible. Uff.
26:43 Kenny is mallu but have heard him say paapa more whereas me a kannadiga is more used to saying paavam than paapa :P
Yaaaar KV sooo cute!
One of the best Podcast Kenny ❤️❤️❤️
Kumar Varun Perspectives were so nice. And Need more of Rahul🔥🔥🔥

Happy deepawali🔥💥⚡
Let me know when this gets over...for good
❤❤❤
What a wholesome episode
Also is it just me or someone else has noticed that KV's name is reversed..like generally it would be Varun Kumar 🤔
Following a system propagated by Jayprakash Narayan who said all should give up last names and be known as only Kumar (Master) or Kumari (Miss) XYZ as a way to do away with the caste system of the country. Many many Biharis out of all the communities largely and wholeheartedly followed this for a very very long time.
22:40 conan came out from ya brooo 😂 😂
Hello Ken, this podcast was really insightful, especially KV's words.
I had a bestfriend, my whole world revolved around her, and she got a bf and now suddenly I am not the most important person in her life. I later realised that I was never the most important person and I hated a lot of things about her but I still miss her a lot probably because I have no one to share things with.
I am not good looking so it doesn't make sense to ask you this but how do you make friends with others especially the opposite gender.
opposite gender beacuse it's difficult to share with other men
So no one wrote tight chaddi here?

What it mean akka?
Never boast of your failure...?
