“A New Trip” with SHANE MAUSS

Shane Mauss caught his first big breaks early in his career with appearances on

Conan, Comedy Central, HBO, and Showtime. Since then, he’s spent nearly 20

years touring full-time—carving one of the most unconventional paths in comedy.

He’s done comedy specials about animal mating behavior, the evolution of moods,

and early next year releases the most spectacular work of his career – an epic

two-part comedy special about psychedelics.

Driven by a fascination with the psychology, behavior, decision making, and

science’s unique lens on the human condition, Shane began interviewing

scientists at universities in the towns where he performed—just as a hobby. That

curiosity snowballed into Here We Are, a podcast with over 400 scientist

interviews, and a series of themed comedy shows that take ambitious ideas and

make them hilarious, relatable, and accessible for the lifelong learner.

A former factory worker turned mind explorer and self-taught wildman, Shane

never went to college—yet somehow found himself swapping ideas with some of

the world’s brightest minds. His work blends stand-up comedy with

thought-provoking insights, offering an experience that goes beyond the typical

night of laughs.

A rebel with a cause, Shane creates “elevated comedy” for audiences who are as

intellectually curious as they are fun—people hungry for something cerebral,

original, and off-beat.

Be one of the first to see his new tour that hilariously explores cognitive quirks

behind misinformation through history while offering inspiration for making sense

of this wild existence.
