My Dinner With Kenny

Seriously? Bicycles? We are arguing about bicycles? What has happened to this podcast?!?! Join Kenny and Steven as they scrape the bottom of the barrel, and come up empty handed - but its all very entertaining. Check it out!

Have you ever had one of THOSE days...? When the podcast is filled with hiccups, strange noises, a moment where you have to stop and start again, and well, an ill timed 7 second delay? Kenny and Steven try valiantly to keep their composure and talk about all of the important things, but the universe conspires against them! Will they survive? Will MDWK triumph over technology? Will someone please turn off that beeping alarm?? Listen in for an episode like no other!

The boys are thrilled to welcome back very special guest Erich Bergen as he shares the incredible story of performing at The White House with his fellow Jersey Boys where he met and chatted with President Obama, the First Lady, Vice President Biden, Nancy Pelosi, John Kerry, and more ... zowee! You can almost hear Steven and Kenny sitting there with their mouths hanging open! Thanks to Jeremy Lelliott for that yummy introduction...

The boys are back! This week, Steven and Kenny invade the International House of Pancakes on Sunset Boulevard and discuss the further developments in the LA 99 seat saga, plus the breaking news of Hillary Clinton’s presidential bid announcement. We live in exciting times, with tasty lunches. Got a comment or question, email directly to the team to be included in next week’s podcast!

Well ... this one's definitely a milestone. Steven and Kenny discuss the current Actors Equity 99-seat Plan brouhaha and things get pretty heated. Take a listen. And then please post your thoughts and comments.

Incredibly, this week's podcast marks the second anniversary of My Dinner With Kenny. BJ made a quick guest appearance as our opening announcer (he did it live)! We spent some time chatting about the sad passing of Chuck, one of Steven's cats, and then moved on to discussing - of all things - the US Postal Service. Next time, we promise to discuss the uproar over proposed changes to the 99-seat theatre plan here in LA. Will we see eye-to-eye on the subject?

Panera on a Monday, and all the crazies showed up right on schedule. Kenny and Steven chat this week about Steven's recent design of Billy Elliot, directed by the fabulous Brian Kite. Plus, Kenny's mouse is acting up, time to set a trap and have it put down. So much theatre to see in Los Angeles this month, its hard to name them all. What show will YOU see this month?

Welcome to 2015! Kenny and Steven discuss some theatre, some movies, some celebrities. All the good stuff. Not sure how anyone can confuse Joanna Gleason with Judith Light, but Kenny seems to be able to make that happen. If you haven't seen Into the Woods, or Birdman, there are spoilers in here, so go see these movies immediately! And honestly, is a second farewell tour considered a revival?

Just under the wire, and for your year-end listening entertainment... The final episode of MDWK for 2014! Sorry about the poor microphone quality - but it's only 12 minutes, so suffer! The boys met up this time at a Taco Bell restaurant for Kenny's birthday, and it was worth every penny spent on those 99 cent tacos.

This episode should have been sponsored by Warby Parker, Happy Socks, and TILLAMOOK! (Call us, we will work out a deal). Michael Bulger joins Steven and Kenny as they talk about practically nothing other than Kenny's recent education into the powerful effects of certain controlled substances. The holidays are upon us, and the year is nearly over. Hopefully the boys will be able to meet once more before 2014 ends!

OMG. Steven is a Chinese mess. The boys meet once again via some sketchy international internet and discuss Halloween, Cannibal the Musical, and give a sweet wrap up to the recent Los Angeles Ovation Awards. You won't want to miss a moment of this episode! Word of warning: don't press any buttons, very dangerous.

This episode gives out more misinformation than you ever thought possible. Did you know that Travis Fimmel was in Sex & the City? Me either. Someone tell his agent. This news, among other rumors about Hong Kong, the Suez Canal, and brown foods... it seems to never end. Too bad this isn't a video podcast, because Steven is apparently sporting a new 'doo. Casey... you picked a wacky episode to make your intro debut! Don't forget to Subscribe on iTunes, or Stitcher Radio!

Monday night, and the screenwriters group was taking up all of the tables at Panera. Hope they don't mind Kenny and Steven laughing it up so nearby! Tonight's episode centered around Joan Rivers, her impact on Kenny, plus more discussion of Steven's world travels, and various other tidbits. Next episode comes from a split up duo - so many miles between them can this be called a dinner show anymore?

Friends? Buddies? Kenny and Steven met up again this week, discussing the state of the 99 seat theatre system in Los Angeles, and Steven's continued work in China. Did they solve anything? Probably not, but the cookies were AMAZING. Tell your friends (and your buddies) to subscribe on iTunes and keep My Dinner with Kenny growing each episode!

The boys get together again.... virtually... for another global edition of My Dinner with Kenny, with fun filled discussions about the nightlife in China, and racists in America. Intro provided by Jin, a friend of Steven's in China, and superior sound quality provided by the Chinese internet - ugh. Let the craziness begin!

This episode, Kenny lost the battle with his inner censor, and gleefully repeated his favorite words over, and over, and over again. Kenny gives his report on Buyer and Cellar, and how delicious Michael Urie is - those are Kenny's words exactly. The duo celebrated Steven's recent birthday with fancy socks, and the promise of sparklers from the 4th of July. And yes, if you have time to read this episode summary, you have time to go to iTunes and subscribe and leave a review. Do it, or the terrorists win.

So much news. So much to discuss. Brian Beacock surprised Steven and Kenny and stopped by to chat about his web series “Acting Dead” - find it at www.actingdead.com. Go check it out! Kenny and Brian reminisced about “Naked Boys Singing,” Jewish holidays, and FUBAR. If only Neil Patrick Harris could hear this podcast, he’d know how Kenny loves him. Watch out, David. Oh, Steven told about how he looked fabulous in blue velvet, and then terrible with food poisoning.

Well, the boys were both a little slap happy tonight, and the Chocolate Chipper cookie didn't help matters any. Steven and Kenny discuss Michele Lee, Las Vegas, the Hollywood Fringe Festival... and underwear. Enjoy the chaos, as Kenny curses more, and more, and more...

On Monday, a very “blue” Monday, Kenny and Steven joined the boisterous ranks of diners at Panera to chat about Les Miserables, The Drowsy Chaperone movie, Time magazine, and proper google stalking techniques. And for the record, Goonies should totally be considered a classic movie in the Netflix Classics genre.

Well, HELLO MAY. Where has spring gone? and why is it so hot in Los Angeles. Join Steven and Kenny as they discuss home remodeling criminals, lice outbreaks and Jim Nabors. Hold onto your localized kitchen earthquakes, here comes another episode for the record books.
