We were lucky to catch up with Sean Conner recently and have shared our conversation below.
Alright, Sean thanks for taking the time to share your stories and insights with us today. Can you talk to us about a project that’s meant a lot to you?
The most meaningful project I’ve worked on is “Kinky Links,” a mobile gaming app and game show tailored for adults.
The idea came about during the pandemic when my friends and I started hosting regular game nights as a way to stay connected.
Those nights were filled with fun, competition, and an opportunity to express ourselves, which made me realize there was something special about bringing people together in this way.
That’s how “Kinky Links” was born—it’s a fresh take on game night for grown-ups, designed to create genuine connections through playful and sometimes steamy challenges.
The app puts an adult spin on classic games, making it a fun, immersive experience.
We’ve also developed a game show version, premiering on Amazon Prime and Tubi on Valentine’s Day 2025, where influencer couples and singles compete to be crowned the Kinky King & Queen.
This project means a lot to me because it started as a simple way to maintain friendships during a difficult time and has since evolved into a platform that celebrates and deepens human connections.
Sean , before we move on to more of these sorts of questions, can you take some time to bring our readers up to speed on you and what you do?
I’m Sean Conner, a comedian, game show host, and creator with a deep love for entertainment and bringing people together. My journey into this industry started with stand-up comedy, performing at some of my favorite spots around Los Angeles like Flappers Comedy Club, The Comedy Store, Hollywood Improv, and The Comedy Chateau. These experiences taught me the joy of making people laugh and the power of shared moments.
A few years back, I broke my leg, which forced me to step back from performing and rethink my approach to comedy and entertainment. Being sidelined was tough, but it also gave me the chance to explore other creative outlets. I realized I could still make people laugh and connect, even if I wasn’t on stage every night.
That’s when I started diving into my other passions such as animation and app development, ultimately leading to the creation of “Kinky Links.” This pivot allowed me to keep engaging with audiences in fun and interactive ways, even while I was recovering. It elevated to my creativity and showed that my talent didn’t just lie in telling jokes, but creating experiences where people could come together, laugh, and enjoy each other’s company.
What sets me apart is my ability to adapt and turn challenges into new opportunities. Breaking my leg taught me the value of resilience and creativity, and it pushed me to find new ways to connect with my audience. Whether I’m performing at a club or developing a new project, my goal is always to bring people together and create memorable experiences.
I’m proud of the community I’ve built and how I’ve been able to expand my career in unexpected ways. My work is all about creating joy and connection, and I want everyone who follows my journey to know that everything I do is driven by that passion.
For you, what’s the most rewarding aspect of being a creative?
As a budding artist, it’s incredibly rewarding to see audience members experience my performance for the first time and watch their perceptions shift based on my talent. It affirms my belief in surpassing others’ expectations and meeting the high standards I set for myself.
Do you think there is something that non-creatives might struggle to understand about your journey as a creative? Maybe you can shed some light?
I think people with traditional 9-5 jobs often get to be seen as the safe choice, which comes with the freedom to complain about long hours, pay issues, or workplace problems. They can express their dissatisfaction without much second-guessing.
In contrast, creatives deal with similar struggles but have to keep a mindset of “I don’t have to do this, I get to do this.” When creatives voice their frustrations, it might sound like they’re about to give up, but everyone experiences fatigue and challenges. The difference is that creatives tend to view these obstacles as part of a rewarding journey rather than just something to complain about.
