Simple Ken Podcast | S2E03 Why This? Feat

Mr Kanan Gill is back! I don't know if many people know this but when I had come up with the idea of Simple Ken five years ago I wanted to co-host it with Kanan. It was something he felt he wouldn't be fully able to commit to but what ended happening was him being a regular part of it anyway. Now the episodes he features in are my personal favourites and also something the Simple Ken audience looks forward to!

We talk about the reasons we started doing comedy, about our approach to money, about Nihilism, Speaking up and the drawbacks of the same, Focusing on our non-career side and the success of Kanan's first book! Hope you enjoy this episode.
