If you read Hawking's book "A Brief History of Time: From the Big Bang to Black Holes" (1988) you will read why Hawking and Penrose reject the idea of the Universe beginning with a Big Bang singularity. Maybe this is what Shane is referring to? Hawking has more than once publicly claimed he wished he had never proposed the idea of a singularity as the beginning of the universe.
