Steve's Kay's Variety Show

It is important to see the cup as being full, even if only 1/10. Because people count, and certainly listeners do to. I may not have millions of listeners, I may not even have five listeners, but you still count. Just like the one or two people in a room who choose to spend time with you, we do not dis-count them because we do not have a stadium packed to see us.  I actually have more listeners he...

The gradual, state by state decriminalization of weed in the USA, has not only helped to reduce criminal penalties for recreational users, but also has helped to reduced stereotyping, characterization, and the "buzz-kill", that was very prevalent during the prohibition era.

It can be a challenge to provide employment references, when you are retired and you keep only loose contact with all your former co workers. It feels like being punished for not keeping an active social network. How do you reach out to someone who hardly respods to you anyway? and ask them if they will write a reference letter for you? Not everyone is good at poltics, so now because you are not p...

The Global Pandemic, of 2020-2022 affected all of us. Some for the worst, some for the best. It was a tragedy regardless, because of all the lives lost prematurely.  Everyone had a different experience, some people began a whole new career out of it,  others developed some serious problems from the isolation. Here is how the pandemic affected me, personally.

Whether you are an animal out in the wilderness, or a person surviving in the city, you have to have your survival instincts, and that involves tensing up and always expecting the worst from people.  Because unfortunately, just like the animal who is not on their guard all the time, bad shit will happen if you are not on alert

Do you ever feel like you are witnessing the players in life, but you are not the one whom the crowd is cheering for? It's like you are on the sidelines, not one of the main players, the players acknowledge you, but you are not part of their club, the crowd does not know you. Yet you show up, you are present. Maybe you wonder when you will be asked to join in on the game.

Today, we have technology at our fingertips.  Dozens of platforms to put ourselves out there, if we want, and promote our brand, whatever it is. Yet, advanced technology is saturated with millions of competitors, and so if you are trying to make a name for yourself on Tik Tok, or U tube for example, you have to have something gimmicky. The only way to success is through failure, through bombing, t...

I would say, that when a grudge goes past a few months, into years, it becomes a rotten thought, if  you will. Actually, even to hold a grudge for a few months is really not healthy for you. I learned that recently, I was angry at someone around March,  it took me a few weeks to get it out of my system, and I slowly opened up. I let it go, I know those other people and I will never click the way I...

Sometimes you may wonder, why everyone knows a celebrity, the the celebrity knows no one other than their immediate circle. It can lend to that feeling of not feeling counted, like you are not heard, like you are not noticed or given the recgnition that some of these famous people get daily. But your voice is heard, it is just heard in a different kind of way, kind of like the waves that Dolphins...

Lately, I have been tuning into podcasts and radio shows more for more dose of humor. I find some of these personalities, are naturally funny and they have me laughing The whole art, is slowly steering me away from performing stand up, towards being a podcaster personality.

Don't  mind me here, I am just talking out loud, trying to figure out which direction I am going in podcasting. Was toying around with the idea of renaming this podcast "Talk Radio With Steve K" These are my thoughts in audio.

It does not matter how many years you have been doing stand up, if you suck, you will never get booked, and if you are new on the scene and you are funny, and people like you, you will skip the line.

Artifiicial Intelligence might be artificial, but it is more genuine and authentic than real people can be.

What do comics, actors, musicians, and news anchors all have in common? They all fiercely are competing for stage and screen time.

Sometimes, it is personally relieving, and an overall happier experience, when a person puts the spotlight on their peers, rather than upon themselves.

What goes through your mind when you see someone walking down the street wit a hospital bracelet on?
