Shapel was cheerleading competitively for University of Louisville when someone dared him to take the stage as a comedian and he never looked back, dropping out shortly thereafter to pursue a career in stand up full-time.
His unique life experiences such as being adopted by a Caucasian family at age 15, his punk rock mentality, and his stage presence make for a truly original voice in the comedy community.

His laughs when he was mimicking the frisbee throwing was everything to me. 😂

The timing on the punting joke is classic.

I literally woke up today, checked youtube to see if yall had uploaded. Good thing I've chosen to check again after lunch. I could use some mid-day laughs to carry me through the afternoon! On the note of being black at a punk show, I love metal. I once went to a Metallica concert and someone asked me why my "black ass" was there 😅 too bad I'm not one to get upset. I just kept on walking and enjoyed the show, one of the best concerts of my life!
-

Points at dude in the crowd " ya, did u know we do that, brother?" Such a quick line but it fucking killed me.😂😂
