About Me

THE BIO

Shantz's first big push into comedy was on the WDVE Morning Show in Pittsburgh way back in September of "97", where he was sucked into doing a live comedy cut. Loving the hell out of it... one week later... he hit open mic night at the Pittsburgh FunnyBone, which helped develop a polished act that storms crowds internationally.
Having performed in clubs, colleges, and casinos for all types of audiences from L.A. to New York, Ireland to Germany… Shantz has become a veteran of comedy! He established himself as a regular in “The Friars of Beverly Hills” working with many of todays top comedians. In addition to performing in clubs all over Los Angeles, he promotes and produces an array of comedy events. You may also find him working as an audience coordinator for such television shows as; Jimmy Kimmel Live and Carson Daly, not to mention several shows for MTV, Comedy Central, and Spike.
After years of performing standup in the States, Shantz decided to take his act across the pond to Ireland. Within a few short months he became a formidable force on the Irish circuit. Coordinating shows at the RDS, and performing in all the comedy clubs in Dublin to redefine his act. It paid off in a big way and Shantz has made a name as one of the best American acts in Ireland.
From his days on stage with Weird Al in front of 5,000 children and parents to his St. Patrick’s day parade show extravaganza for 10,000 drunkards. Clean and funny or down and dirty, Shantz can deliver. Even if it’s standing in front of one person in an elevator, making people laugh is what he loves to do. Whatever the situation Shantz is always on top of his game!

QUOTE..1:
1970 Pontiac Firebird. The car I've always wanted and now I have it. I rule!
QUOTE..2
I think in all fairness, I should explain to you exactly what it is that I do. For instance tomorrow morning ill get up nice and early, take a walk down over to the bank and... walk in and see and uh... if you don't have my money for me, I'll... crack your fuckin' head wide-open in front of everybody in the bank. And just about the time that I'm comin' out of jail, hopefully, you'll be coming out of your coma. And guess what? I'll split your fuckin' head open again. 'Cause I'm fuckin' stupid. I don't give a fuck about jail. That's my business. That's what I do.
QUOTE..3
ACTOR1: Why, it's the drunk piano player. You're so drunk, you can't hit nothin'. In fact, you're probably seeing double. [Cowboy draws a knife, and Doc Holliday takes out a second gun]
ACTOR2: I have two guns, one for each of ya.
QUOTE..4
God damn you Walter! You fuckin' asshole! Everything's a fuckin' travesty with you, man! And what was all that shit about Vietnam? What the FUCK, has anything got to do with Vietnam? What the fuck are you talking about?
QUOTE..5
I don't want you to be the guy in the PG-13 movie everyone's *really* hoping makes it happen. I want you to be like the guy in the rated R movie, you know, the guy you're not sure whether or not you like yet. You're not sure where he's coming from. Okay? You're a bad man. You're a bad man, Mikey. You're a bad man, bad man.
QUOTE..6
Go fuck yourself, San Diego.
QUOTE..7

QUOTE..8
Anything happens to her, I have a .45 and a shovel. I doubt anybody would miss you.
QUOTE..9
ACTOR 1:Why do I? -- I come in here -- instinctively -- first thing I do -- I'm looking for the exit -- I'm catching the sightlines -- I know I can't sit with my back to the door --
ACTOR 2: You're paranoid. You were shot. It's natural.
ACTOR 1: I can tell you the license plate numbers of all three cars out front. I can tell you that the waitress is left-handed and the guy at the counter weighs two-hundred and fifteen pounds and knows how to handle himself. I know that the best, first place to look for a gun is the cab of that grey truck outside. I know that at this altitude I can run flat out for half a mile before I lose my edge. I knew that you were my first, best option out of Zurich? How do I know all that? How can I know all that and not know who I am? How is that possible? [Long dead pause.]
