And Now We Drink Episode 396: With Ken Feels

This week on "And Now We Drink," Matt Slayer and the insightful Ken Feels raise a glass to second chances —  that's right, Ken returns to the ANWD studios after their hilariously epic initial podcast was tragically devoured by corrupted SD cards and digital gremlins. But fear not, this redemption round delivers even more laughs as the duo revisit lost conversations.   Matt and Ken recount their ill-fated first episode, joking about recreating it via silly kung-fu style overdubs or even a psychedelic cartoon. They toast Manhattan cocktails and reminisce about their respective moves to L.A., comparing nightlife scenes and critiquing the peculiarities of Miami. Ken opens up about his transition from a successful bartending and liquor industry career into  entertainment, sharing the sometimes-surprising reactions he's encountered, and why he ultimately chose the industry over traditional job routes.   The boys dive deep into industry networking, the importance of maintaining professionalism even at the wildest parties, city rivalries (Chicago, don't listen to this one!), and philosophical musings on humanity, happiness and choice. The duo ponders deep societal and philosophical questions, touching on neurodivergence, empathy, and why intelligence isn't just about knowing facts but applying knowledge meaningfully.   Matt and Ken also brainstorm an amazing idea for a hilarious and educational web-series game show,  challenging internet know-it-alls to competition against hyper-intelligent  performers.   Kick back, grab a drink, and come along for a ride as Matt and Ken laugh, share insights, and maybe even make plans for a kung-fu movie style overdub of their lost (and found) original conversation.
