Shane Torres is a standup comedian, writer, podcaster, and actor who resides in Brooklyn. Produced by Bert and LeeAnn Kreischer, Shane’s very first special THE BLUE EYED MEXICAN was released in December 2023. Vulture named it as one of the stand-up specials not-to-be-missed in 2023, raving “The Blue Eyed Mexican, stands out for its beautiful directness and keen sense of good storytelling. It’s a refreshing combination of delicate and obscene.” It is available to stream on YouTube.

Shane can be seen on CONAN (twice), THE LATE SHOW WITH STEPHEN COLBERT, NBC’S LAST COMIC STANDING, HALF HOUR SPECIAL WITH COMEDY CENTRAL, and THIS WEEK FROM THE CELLAR on Comedy Central. You might have heard Shane’s “laconic drawling delivery with deliberate pacing” as the NY Times calls it, on popular podcasts such as BERTCAST WITH BERT KREISCHER, BARSTOOL’S KFC RADIO, DR DREW AFTER DARK, THE HONEYDEW WITH RYAN SICKLER, and ARE YOU GARBAGE and a slew of others. His podcast, NO ACCOUNTING FOR TASTE with Kyle Kinane is available wherever you get your podcasts.

Shane actively tours around the world at comedy clubs, concert venues, and some of the most prestigious festivals.
