Today, Trevor, Mario and Ken take a different approach when analyzing Shannon Sharpes interview with Katt Williams. If you’ve been paying attention, then you are probably familiar with Katts stand up style and talking points, and his most recent interview on Club Shay Shay made sure that if you didnt know his name before, you most certainly do now. In this episode the Sharks look at how social media has affected our world views and consequently how people have reacted to many of Katts’ more infamous moments from the interview.
