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. You won't want to miss this thoughtful, uproarious
episode!
