Shane's comedic style is a paradox that's hard to explain – an uncanny ability to address the uncomfortable with a dose of warmth and likability. He takes his audience on a rollercoaster of emotions, from uproarious laughter to introspective contemplation, and all emotions in between. His genuine approach allows him to create a camaraderie with his crowd.
