September 29, 2018 Episode 64 - Climbing Up The Rabbit Hole with Comedian Shane Mauss
Comedian, Host of the 'Here We Are' Podcast, and psychedelic traveler of time and space Shane Mauss joins the No Simple Road Crew as our guest this week! Shane spent some time with us talking about integrating his myriad psychedelic experiences, some practical advice on how to come down from the mountaintop, who the 'God Of Farts' actually is, and so much more I'd be summarizing all afternoon.
Originally from Wisconsin, Shane Mauss caught his first break when he was awarded ‘Best Stand-Up” at The HBO US Comedy Arts Festival in 2007. This led to his TV debut and first of five appearances on Conan. Since that time, he’s been on Jimmy Kimmel, Showtime, Comedy Central 'Presents' and 'This Is Not Happening'. For over a decade he has been headlining shows all over the world.
Shane has also been a guest on podcasts such as You Made It Weird, Marc Maron's WTF, Duncan Trussell’s Family Hour, The Joe Rogan Experience, Never Not Funny, Bertcast, TOFOP, Crabfeast, and Keith and The Girl. He also travels the country interviewing scientists about the meanings of life for his own podcast 'Here We Are'. We are extremely honored and grateful to have him as our guest! I know you're gonna dig this one!
Make sure to check out Shane's website for tour dates, news, and links to 'Here We Are'
