Shane Mauss "A Good Trip"
Shane Mauss Presents
A GOOD TRIP
100+ City Psychedelic Comedy Tour
Sponsored by the Multidisciplinary Association of Psychedelic Studies (MAPS)
Hi! Im Shane Mauss. You may have heard about this tour on Pete Holmes' You Made It Weird, Duncan Trussell Family Hour, The Joe Rogan Experience, Bertcast, Never Not Funny, Doug Loves Movies, Put Your Hands Together, or one of many other podcasts. But I wanted to give you some more information about the show here.
Before I tell you about this show, its standard for comedians to gloat about their accomplishments in an effort to convince you of our crediblility: Ive been a comedian for twelve years. Nine years ago I won an award for Best Stand-Up at the HBO US Comedy Festival and became a fulltime national (and sometimes international) headliner. Since then Ive appeared on Jimmy Kimmel, Showtime, five times on Conan, and have specials on Comedy Central and Netflix.
Now let me tell you about this show 'A Good Trip'. Ive been a psychonaut for almost 20 years (to me this means I use psychedelics to aid in gaining a deeper understanding of the mind). Psychedelics have had a significant and positive impact on my life. But more relevant to this show, they are also the source of some of the most hilarious, thought-provoking, and well-received material of my career. Ive worked very hard to put together a one-of-a-kind show for the open-minded, insightful, inquisitive, curious weirdos among us. Im hoping that is you.
Unlike a typical stand-up act that is 45 minutes of set-up, punch, repeat, this is an hour and a half show that is part stand-up, part funny stories of experiences, and part Ted Talk. I will take us on a funny journey through the stigma, history, laws, and science of psychedelics. I will share personal experiences and talk about the effects of hallucinogens like mushrooms, LSD, and DMT. (Dont worry if you arent familiar, Ive worked hard to articulate the experience for all.)
My hope is that Im helping to both destigmatize and demystify psychedelics in a fun way. I am an advocate for psychedelic studies and rights. Im in no way encouraging everyone to do them. They arent for everybody. They just happen to be for me!
Here are some answers to common questions and comments:
Q: Isnt drug humor cliché?
A: It often is, but this is not a bunch of dumb pot jokes. This is some of the most thoughtful and unique humor you will ever see.
Q: Will you be on drugs while performing.
A: No. Who does psychedelics and then goes to work? What a waste of good drugs.
Q: Are you going to pass out psychedelics out to everybody?
A: Umm NO. Obviously. But if you come and support this kind of message, meet like-minded people at the show, and help keep the conversation going; maybe one day these outrageous drug laws will change.
Meet people: These audiences are made up of the best people in a given city. It can sometimes be hard to find like-minded people. This is a great place to make some new friends. The psychedelic community is often a bit introverted and quiet. Take a chance. You will already have a topic of conversation for an ice-breaker. Meet some new people.
Hope to see you there! Were all going to have a good trip.
*This is a very popular show so make sure to make reservations. Also, presale tickets are cheaper than at the door.
If you want to get to know me better, listen to me as a guest on one of the previously mentioned podcasts or my own podcast Here We Are where I talk with a different scientist each week about the meanings of life. Also, if you would like to see the style of this show 'A Good Trip', have a listen to my last album 'My Big Break'.
