I dont really know what to say to make anything better or easier. Ken Flores came into our studio for the first time and we automatically knew...."this fool is awesome". Ive only laughed hard enough to cry a few times on the show.... When i do these shows I try to take a piece of advice, knowledge, a lesson....something to improve or valuable enough to hang on to. I say this because with Ken it was insightful at the core of his stories because their was ALWAYS self realization.....but that was always overshadowed by how funny he was. Many times on and off camera we spoke about his extra circular activities......but what can you say when someone is a grown man and a rising star. We were all lucky enough to get the time we did.......I dont say this lightly, but there will not be anyone like him for a long time. His ability to control a room was something rare.....even in our little studio he had us hooked with his stories. The first day we met he told me how many of my videos hes watched, I didnt realize Ken was an actual real deal fan, watched all the Story Times. Him, his roommate and his homey Chins back in Aurora. I was a fan of Ken as a comedian....to hear how stoked he was made my day forreal. For someone on their way to literal stardom.....there was no Hollywood vibe with him A few months later I asked Ken to do our live podcast and with NO hesitation he said yes and he would be stoked to do it. Ken is a true legend in the making and hes doing these little podcast live shows for us because hes always trying to see someone win....hes always looking out for people. This man rode 2 hours to our venue in the summer time and still made it back to do 2 shows he had booked......just a great guy that truly loved comedy. I really wish I was typing this because Ken was back for another episode.....but knowing this can and never will happen again is unreal and truly heartbreaking. Ken, we love you, thank you for your friendship, the laughs, making me get on stage & do stand up, being the only person to get me to nearly throw up on stage.....the open baggy on the balls story will NEVER not be disgusting, thank you for being an amazing performer and again, thank you for the friendship......love you forever dude.
