he actually comes from a huge background of terriffic comedic teaching.
pauly shore's mom managed a big time comedy club in la (the comedy store maybe?) when he was growing up, so he hung out with sam kinneson, richard belzer, leno, seinfeld, all those guys from the generation of older comedians who made it huge and headlined there.
he actually stood on the roof and pissed on them when they went on strike in the 80's cause they were fucking with his mom's livelyhood.
