  • Shane ups his already 5-star game

    If you liked Here We Are, you’ll love Inshanelu Curious. He’s the most hilarious interviewer out there and his new focus on animals and evolution is going to be great. … in the first episode, wait til you get to the “feast of the circumcision” bit near the end. I was nearly rolling on the floor laughing.
