Episode #102 – Ken Cox: Punchlines, Punching Bags & A.I.
In this episode, I sit down with Ken Cox — a stand-up comedian, boxer, gym owner, and storyteller who bridges worlds we don't always see together. We talk about the connections between comedy and combat, why he chose to buy the gym where he trained, the past and present of editing, and what AI might mean for creators.
What We Dive Into:
· Comedy + Boxing: How the stage and the ring both test confidence, timing, resilience, and presence
· Buying the Gym: The story behind why Ken took ownership of his training space and what that's taught him about investment, community, and stake
· Old-School Editing: Stories from the analog era — cutting tape, manual splicing — and how those practices shape modern craft
· A.I. & Creativity: Ken's take on where A.I. fits (or doesn't) with comedy, storytelling, and artistic risk
