Episode 357: Kenny Scott
Saturday, 25 April, 2026
Kenny Scott is our next guest on The Yay – Kenny is a veteran actor, who has acted in various theatre companies in the bay area. Jake and I talk about Kenny’s upbringing, his training at Morgan State University and Laney College, his career in the bay area and where he sees himself in the future. You can reach Kenny directly via Instagram: @kenny_scxtt Kehinde Koyejo (Episodes 214 and 262) has been a friend of mine since 2005, when I stage managed her for the Ray of Light musical, Bat Boy. She’s an amazing actress, model and creative artist. She’s also an incredible entrepreneur – and I want to introduce you to her business, Kalm Korner. Kalm Korner is an online boutique that specializes in aromatherapy gifts – love rubs, moisturizers, sprays, tea blends and candles. Kalm Korner also sells Choc’late Mama cookies – she brought some over the last time we interviewed her and it was fantastic.
