  • 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.

    I just watched again "Don't be that guy" last night because I missed your shows and you're posting a new episode of SimpleKen today 😃
    It was so nice not to use the word "luck" and make it clear that he worked hard to get that break.
    Making people laugh is such a wonderful thing! It must be heartbreaking when sometimes it doesn't work out, like what happened to Nirmal. I can only be grateful for what you do. You make us forget our problems for a moment. Thank you for that.
    Another great episode! Thanks guys !

    Hi Kenny. I’ve been Binge watching all your podcasts recently and I think they’re great. I love that this podcast discusses deep questions unlike many other mediocre podcasts. I’m at a stage of my life where I’m very lost which I’m sure happens to most teenagers.
    My question is when you have no idea what you want to do in life, how do you navigate to find a career that’s good for you?

    I have no questions, since all the 39 episodes have most of my answers and the rest is something I guess I will be able to figure it out myself
    keep up the good work. aNd
    Good day to you :)

    I found this weird vibe in Kenny that he is constantly trying to ask why their (other both) partnership is not ruined yet, I can feel that it's coming from either his anxiety or from his own past experiences which are not healed...There could have been a little healthier way to show the curiosity...
