What is a "space shank?"

The term finds its origins in our steep improv background. When an actor mimes holding an object, you leave space in your hand for that object's mass. Therefore, you might say that a guy is holding a "space gun," or a "space toothbrush." In many of our scenes, people were killed by receiving a "space shank."

Of course, without the space, we'd just be "Shank Media," which sounds like a maker of prison training videos (which we wouldn't be above doing, mind you).

Do you lift with machines or free weights?

Neither. Our bodies are naturally muscular and toned.

What is the capital of Venezuela?

Caracas.
