Hello my name is Shane Scharer and I tell jokes. I am a Des Moines, IA
based comic who decided in 2019 at the age of 45 to attend my first open mic. I am a manic livewire of almost constant high energy. My comic style has been described as sarcastic story telling with a dose of self-deprecation shedding light on my many journeys from marriage, raising children, being a Gen-Xer, and my family life growing up.

Hey there, I'm Shane, your friendly neighborhood comic hailing from the heart of Des Moines, IA! Picture this: in 2019, at the ripe age of 45, I boldly took the plunge into the world of stand-up comedy by hitting my very first open mic. Talk about a late bloomer, right?
My comedic style is a unique blend of sarcastic storytelling infused with a healthy dose of self-deprecation. I'm here to shed light on the roller coaster of multiple marriages, the wild journey of raising kids/grand kids, and the hilarity that was my family life growing up.
Now, about my material - I've got a range that stretches from PG13 to R-rated. Yep, I'm not afraid to venture into the edgier side of humor. So, whether you're in the mood for a good chuckle or a hearty belly laugh, I've got you covered. So, buckle up, because when Shane takes the stage, you're in for a laughter-packed ride through the ups and downs of life, love, and the absurdity that comes with it all!
