New Segments Introduced

Dan’s Hacks & Dear Toss Show
At [04:11], Daniel Tosh announces two new segments aimed at adding fresh content and interaction with listeners:

1. Dan’s Hacks:

   • Description: A segment dedicated to sharing quirky and often humorous life hacks.
   • Notable Quote:
     Daniel Tosh [04:31]: “Sometimes these things go viral really quick. Like, oh my goodness, I didn't know you could peel a hard-boiled egg just by squeezing it in your armpit. Whatever it is.”

2. Dear Toss Show:

   • Description: Inspired by advice columns like Dear Abby, this segment allows listeners to submit personal problems or grievances for humorous advice.
   • Notable Quote:
     Daniel Tosh [06:20]: “It's a segment where I'm going to allow fans to write in any potential problem or grievance they have... but this one, this first one comes to us. It's not really a fan, I'll be honest.”

---

Dan’s Hacks: Milkshake Management

In the Dan’s Hacks segment starting at [04:56], Daniel provides unconventional advice on handling leftover milkshakes.

• Problem Addressed:

  • Storing unfinished milkshakes in the refrigerator makes them watery, while freezing causes them to become solid and ruin the texture.

• Humorous Solution:

  • Notable Quote:
    Daniel Tosh [05:07]: “When I get a milkshake, this is what I do. I finish it. Dan's Hacks.”

• Insight:
  Daniel encourages embracing the moment and enjoying the milkshake fully rather than seeking ways to preserve it imperfectly.

---

Dear Toss Show: Relationship Grievances

In the Dear Toss Show segment commencing at [06:20], Daniel tackles a listener’s complaint about an emotionally unavailable partner.

• Listener’s Issue:

  • A girlfriend claims her boyfriend is emotionally unavailable.

• Daniel’s Take:

  • Notable Quote:
    Daniel Tosh [06:21]: “He doesn't like you that much. That's just it… Tell me about your dreams. Oh, I'd love to hear about the time you had a dog that ran away but came back.”

• Humorous Advice:
  Daniel downplays the issue, suggesting that emotional unavailability is simply a lack of interest, and injects humor by referencing celebrity crushes.

  Daniel Tosh [07:23]: “I love Zendaya. Is she too young for me to love her? Nope.”

---

Oscar Predictions Discussion

The core of the episode revolves around predicting the outcomes of the Oscars, particularly the Best Picture category.

• Nominee Breakdown:
  At [29:10], Daniel lists the nominees:

  • The Brutalist
  • Conclave
  • Wicked
  • Amelia Perez
  • Nickel Boys
  • I'm Still Here
  • Dune Part Two
  • The Substance
  • Anora

• Daniel’s Insights and Predictions:

  • Dune Part Two:
    Daniel Tosh [31:40]: “I thought Dune was a lock. But Amica Life Insurance [guest] says science fiction never wins. No chance.”

  • Wicked:
    Daniel Tosh [30:13]: “I vs. I… How are you gonna act? Staring at Zendaya, getting a make out with her… How are you gonna act?”

  • The Brutalist:
    Daniel Tosh [30:45]: “I’m gonna say the Brutalist wins.”

  • Poor Things:
    Daniel Tosh [25:58]: “My vote is for Poor Things from last year. There’s tons of crazy nudity… They’re pretending it’s okay because she’s only six years old, but it’s played by an older person.”

• Humorous Observations:
  Daniel critiques the length and seriousness of the Oscars, suggesting cuts and humorous additions like a shot clock for acceptance speeches followed by a sudden switch to heavy metal music.

  Daniel Tosh [17:19]: “Make it a roast. Yeah, that's kind of fun.”

• Guest Interaction:
  Throughout the discussion, Eddie provides counterpoints and humorous takes, sometimes revealing he hasn't seen the nominated films, adding to the comedic dynamic.

  Amica Life Insurance [29:56]: “Yes, it's brutal. I didn't see it. Just going on reputation.”

---

Movie Analysis and Commentary

Daniel and his guest delve into detailed yet comedic critiques of nominated films:

1. Dune Part Two:

   • Plot Confusion:
     Daniel Tosh [19:25]: “I don't understand the geography of Dune whatsoever because I thought it was like planets and stuff like that.”

2. Wicked:

   • Narrative Split:
     Daniel Tosh [30:24]: “Wicked is only the first half of a story… Then, they're like, oh, that's only the first half.”

3. Poor Things:

   • Controversial Content:
     Daniel Tosh [25:58]: “It’s about a child in an older body, inappropriate themes portrayed as acceptable in arty films.”

4. Conclave:

   • Satirical Take on Religion:
     Daniel Tosh [31:09]: “It's about finding a new pope. I’m not interested. Good for them, though, for making a movie that made you forget the Catholic Church has committed the most sexual abuse cases in recorded history.”

---

Insights and Humor

Throughout the episode, Daniel employs his signature humor to critique the Oscars and Hollywood:

• Award Categories:
  Daniel suggests eliminating gendered acting categories to streamline the awards.

  Daniel Tosh [15:08]: “No best actor, actress, supporting actor, actress. No best actor that identifies as an actress. It's just best Actor. Boom.”

• Acceptance Speeches:
  Proposes a shot clock to limit speech time, followed by a humorous interruption with a heavy metal band.

  Daniel Tosh [15:56]: “Acceptance speeches go too long. They’re supposed to be 45 seconds. Let’s throw up a shot clock. Boom. Pantera’s on it.”

• Show Length:
  Criticizes the Oscars for overextending their duration, suggesting listeners deserve a concise show.

  Daniel Tosh [17:22]: “Once the show hits the two-hour mark, it's done. Any categories that they didn't get to, they get to go first next year.”

---

Conclusion and Plugs

• Merchandise and Tours:
  Daniel Tosh [31:37]: “Guys, get some merch. Eddie’s tour on sale now. Tons of dates. We're gonna be all over the Midwest.”

• Local Recommendations:
  Shares personal experiences and humorous takes on local businesses, such as Little White House Subs and Matheson’s Cookie in Key West.

  Daniel Tosh [35:35]: “The Balboa is a $16 sandwich. It was huge. They just pre-boxed half your food. We just eat it around the corner.”

• Final Thoughts on Awards:
  Daniel humorously acknowledges that the predictions are based more on reputation than actual viewing, highlighting the unpredictable nature of the Oscars.

  Daniel Tosh [31:44]: “Like Space Odyssey. Is it all the one?”

---

The Oscars My favorite night of the year Tosh Show Tosh show from show hey good morning and welcome to the Tosh Show. I'm Daniel. With me is Eddie. How are you Eddie, I'm doing pretty good. Daniel, you remember the handshake from the movie Big?

[Daniel Tosh]

Yeah. I mean, I remember them doing it.

[Lowe's]

You don't know it.

[Daniel Tosh]

I do not know it.

[Lowe's]

Shimmy, shimmy, coke, puff, shimmy, shimmy, drop. I met a girlfriend. I met a ice cream cola with vanilla on the. Ooh, daddy, a rocking on the patio. I said it, I meant it. I saw your mom's crying. Sock me in the stomach three more times. I don't remember if that was it or not. It was close. It's in that vault bar. I'm making up words, obviously, right? But it's somewhere in there. You ever. You and your kid or any of your friends, you have any cool handshakes?

[Daniel Tosh]

No. No cool handshakes, man.

[Lowe's]

I always get impressed with the elaborate handshakes that I see some of these athletes pull off, and then they have a different one for each player and they remember them.

[Daniel Tosh]

Right. That's the most impressive part.

[Lowe's]

So quick, I gotta come up with a cool handshake. I saw some kids at school when I was dropping my son off do a cool handshake. When they greeted each other, they were like fifth graders. And I was like, oh, I was telling my son, we need to come up with a cool handshake. And he was like, yeah, I don't. He didn't care.

[Daniel Tosh]

Let's do a hug.

[Lowe's]

We just hug. Yeah, we hug.

[Daniel Tosh]

That's good.

[Lowe's]

What we do. He just bawls, crying, and I just hug him and I whisper in his ear. I don't want you to leave either.

[Daniel Tosh]

Remember that one?

[Lowe's]

That's our cool little routine. Yeah, whatever. Hey, this episode, guys, we are featuring two new segments. What? Get out. Yep. We got Dan's Hacks and deer Toss show.

[Daniel Tosh]

I'm here for it.

[Lowe's]

What do you want to hear first, Ed?

[Daniel Tosh]

I want to a. Dan's Hacks.

[Lowe's]

Dan's Hacks. Okay. Hit the music for Dan's Hacks, huh? Yeah. All right. Now, Dan's Hacks, what I'm hoping for. You ever on the Internet loves to have hacks. And sometimes these things go viral really quick. Like, oh, my goodness. I didn't know you could peel a hard boiled egg just by squeezing it in your armpit. Whatever it is.

[Daniel Tosh]

Yeah, but seriously.

[Lowe's]

Yeah, some dumb stuff. Well, I'm hoping some of my Dan's Hacks catch fire. Now. My first one is for milkshakes.

[Daniel Tosh]

Okay.

[Lowe's]

Okay. Who doesn't love a milkshake? Love them. Okay. The problem is, a lot of times when you have your milkshake, sometimes you want to save it or you put it in the refrigerator, or you put it in the freezer. What do you do, Eddie? Do you put yours in the refrigerator or the freezer?

[Daniel Tosh]

Refrigerator.

[Lowe's]

And then if you don't have it within 30 minutes, it gets too watery, the refrigerator isn't cold enough. But the freezer, it gets frozen solid. And then when it thaws out, the consistency is forever ruined.

[Daniel Tosh]

Right?

[Lowe's]

So here it is. Dan's Hacks for Milkshakes. When I get a milkshake, this is what I do. I finish it. Dan's Hacks. All right, now it's time for Dear Toss show. And this is a segment where I'm going to allow fans to write in any potential problem or grievance they have, much like the storied advice column of Dear Abby. Now, this one, this first one comes to us. It's not really a fan, I'll be honest. And this person doesn't want my advice.

[Daniel Tosh]

That's what I like about this segment.

[Lowe's]

Let's just say they were talking and I was just listening to them and I'm not allowed to chime in. So the guy she's dating, she's claiming is emotionally unavailable. Here's how I fix that. No, he's not. Okay, dude just doesn't like you that much. That's just it. It's just so simple. If Zendaya is sitting on your couch, I'm guessing you become emotionally too available. He wouldn't even care what you were planning on watching. Now it's just like, tell me about your dreams. Oh, I'd love to hear about the time you had a dog that ran away but came back. It's just. It's so silly. I just was listening. I couldn't help myself. I just kept wanting to go, oh, yeah, no, totally unavailable. I love Zendaya. Is she too young for me to love her?

[Daniel Tosh]

Nope.

[Lowe's]

Good. Speaking of Zendaya, it's Oscars time. Enjoy. Hey, y'all. Daniel Tosh here. President, CEO, cfo, coo, and lead designer of Boyswear Pink, my charitable kids clothing line.

[Lowe's]

PA show the Oscars My favorite night of the year. Do you watch the Oscars.

[Daniel Tosh]

Yeah, we do.

[Lowe's]

Don't care about the movies. That doesn't affect if I watch or don't watch. It's all about the host for me. If I'm interested in the host comedically, I will watch the monologue. Past the monologue, I'm out.

[Daniel Tosh]

You're done?

[Lowe's]

I'm done. So this year it's Conan O'Brien. Yeah, that'd be funny if Will Smith slapped him, right? Yeah, like, holy shit. Like, you know, because Conan. Conan is a big guy. He's like 6 4ish. And then his. His pale Irish skin would just. Oh, a big red handprint on the side of his head for the second half. That's a tough gig. Now you have to. You have to, like, when they come to you, be like, hey, am I going to be physically assaulted? And will you. Will you do nothing about it if I am physically assaulted? A lot of people have asked me, fans, if I would ever host any of these award shows. And the answer is, I don't know. I've never been asked. They never ask me. I'm probably not famous enough to get the invite. But another thing is, a lot of times they're on a network that's owned by another company and they have a vested interest in the person that's hosting the show. There's usually a connection. Oh, it's abc, so it's Jimmy Kimmel. It's, you know, you get it. I also would struggle so bad with the names of all the actors and people in these awards, and people would be baffled by how little I know about people that are clearly extremely famous. Oh. Now, I'm not saying that I wouldn't do it, and I'm not saying that I couldn't pull it off.

[Daniel Tosh]

You'd kill.

[Lowe's]

You know, I've never even asked. Been asked to present an award, which. That's pretty insulting, you know, not even like on, like, the shitty award shows, you know, MTV or whatever. Whatever. I'm so mad. I would have some demands. I would have a list of demands that would have to be agreed upon before I would agree to host this big old train wreck.

[Daniel Tosh]

What are they? You got them?

[Lowe's]

No, no, I don't have them yet. Just in theory. I know I would have some demands. Now, I've written a joke or two for some hosts. You know, if it's different comics that are going around practicing and they're friends of mine, well, then I'm all about trying to punch up some jokes. That's fun. And then when you hear them say your joke or don't do it the right way. You're just at home going, well, you ruined it. That's not the way you're supposed to deliver it. The biggest problem with the Oscars, usually it's too long. It's a bunch of elitists and the movies sucked. Here's a few fixes. Some new categories. Okay, I like Best Crafty and Catering. Focus on the one thing that cast and crews actually give a shit about. Like that, to me, is interesting. What kind of food did you guys have? Let's see some spreads. Show us. Is the cruise food drastically different than the stars? The A list? Stars of the movies. Are they in line or do they just get to go first? I want to know and I want to end. You know, just the overall. Forget the catering part. I wanted to see craft service. We're just the table of cool snacks. They always find some fun stuff in there. They got those candy cigarettes. Yeah, that'd be neat. Here's another. An award that I want. I want best background Extra. Give recognition to the guy that stood in the freezing cold for 15 hours, dressed in something from the goddamn middle ages for 150 bucks or whatever the daily rate for some non union work is.

[Daniel Tosh]

I would love to see that guy get called up.

[Lowe's]

Yeah, he's not allowed to speech. They shut his microphone as soon as he gets up there. He's not allowed to talk.

[Daniel Tosh]

Okay.

[Lowe's]

He's just got to take the trophy and walk away. That's it. You're an extra. Yeah, he picks it. You don't get to talk. There shouldn't be award for best sound. It should go without saying that we should all be able to hear and understand the dialogue in the movie. You could also combine some cinematography in there was this movie too dark and I couldn't make shit out because I didn't watch it at nighttime. I'm looking for ways to speed it up. Another way to speed it up. How about this? No best actor, actress, supporting actor, actress. No best actor that identifies as an actress. It's just best Actor. No one cares your gender or the size of the role. There's just one best Actor. Boom. I just knocked out four or five different categories.

[Daniel Tosh]

You just took an hour in one award.

[Lowe's]

That's. That's an hour. Now it's down to five minutes. The show's too long. Acceptance speeches go too long. The acceptance speeches are supposed to be 45 seconds. Okay, let's throw up a shot clock. That's fun. Now you're at home watching, going, oh, they're not wrapping it up. But wait, instead of some orchestra trying to play them off with some soft bullshit, we get Pantera coming in hot. 45 seconds is up. Boom. Pantera's on it. Good luck trying to wrap up your speech while this is going on. I want to thank God. I want to shove my political views down your throat. Get it? All right, enough. You see, I can't. I can't do a podcast while that's going on, by the way. Once the show hits the two hour mark, it's it. It's done. Any categories that they didn't get to, they get to go first next year. Show some respect for the viewers at home. They have to work Monday morning. You guys get to go to some cool after party and have in and out. Oh, my goodness, look, we're eating like fucking poor people. The In Memoriam too long. Also bad music choice. I say bring the host back out. Let's do more standup during this. Let's bring Jeff Ross out, let him fire off a few shots at each person that's died.

[Daniel Tosh]

Make it a roast. Yeah, that's kind of fun.

[Lowe's]

That's more fun. And by the way, if we need to see your name and your job description under your photo, sorry, you don't make it. We'll create one dead person collage. One and done. All right, they're out. And the best picture nominees. Here we go. Let's get into it. Best picture nominees. This is the problem with the show. There's 10. We all know there's not 10 good movies that come out every year. Some years there's barely two. And by the way, I feel if you won Best Picture last year, then you are the defending champ and you're up against whatever ones come out this year, too.

[Daniel Tosh]

Okay?

[Lowe's]

So there can be a run of a Best Picture that's been going strong for four years.

[Daniel Tosh]

Yeah.

[Lowe's]

I still think Talladega Nights should be undefeated, and I can't believe I'm about to say that, but this might be the only time that I agree with Trump. Knock it off with all this foreign shit. Let's get to the nominees. The brutalist. Great title. The movie is brutal. 215 minutes of watching Adrien Brody do heroin pass a complete unknown. Oh, man. Timmy Chalamet as Bob Dylan. You know, even when I'm in the mood to listen to Bob Dylan music, I only make it about halfway through a song before I'm like, ah, right, I get it. He's a genius. He also lives down the street from me. It's weird how our two worlds ended up at the same place. Write a song about it. Yeah, he could write a nine minute song about how I had a clip show and ended up being his neighbor. Oh, how many movies is that? That's two. That's just two movies I've gone through already.

[Daniel Tosh]

Exhausting.

[Lowe's]

Dune Part 2. All right, here we go. Speaking of Timmy Shala, Anybody calling him Timmy Shala yet?

[Daniel Tosh]

I don't think so.

[Lowe's]

Not like that. This movie was unbelievable. Now I can't pronounce any characters names. I barely followed the plot, but it was stunning to watch. And this should win. And Zendaya was in it. Yeah, you kidding me? Timmy Shally should win an award just for keeping his boner down the whole time. How are you gonna act? Staring at Zendaya, getting a make out with her, rolling around in the sand, shoving those weird breathing things up your nose. I have a few questions about Dune that I'm sure nerds would love to over explain to me. But they made such a big deal about riding those worms. Like it was such a skill to be had. But then when the whole town would travel places, they would all get on top of them and there was no like, oh, here it comes. Everybody get ready to dive on. Apparently there was like a bus stop where they could all just climb aboard safely because there was like whole families on it and they didn't do the, the thing that he had to do, which was like, I don't know what, I forgot it. By this point he like shot a hook into it and you know, rode it and it was like the craziest thing ever. But then there's scenes later where they're or they're going to the south, which by the way, I don't understand the geography of Dune whatsoever because I thought it was like planets and stuff like that. But then they just go to a village that appears to just be like 45 minutes via Wyrm away. It's not that. It wasn't that spaced out. I didn't understand it. I feel like they should travel farther away or visit those places more often if it's that easy to get to. Yeah, it's like the Long Island Express. Yeah, well, so anyway, but. And that's in the future too, right? Yeah. Okay, I don't understand anything. Now let's get to the next movie. The substance and tons of nudity in this one. Margaret Qualley, people saying her boobs aren't real, but her ass was real. And guess what? Her ass carried the film. There's a good butt in that movie, huh? Oh, man. Yeah, I haven't watched the movie. I just looked at stills. Speaking of nudity, Anora. Fun movie. I guess there's a completely pointless 35 minute chunk where they go searching for a rich Russian dude on Coney island, which leads nowhere. And I'm not gonna spoil it for you because there's nothing to spoil. It's a strong best runner up. That's how I would describe this movie's best chances. Conclave. Anybody watch Conclave? Yeah. Nope. You saw it? Oh, yeah. Oh, it's about finding a new pope. I'll wait for the reality show that's about to happen. No, I can't. I'm not interested. Good for them, though, for making a movie that made you forget the Catholic church has committed the most sexual abuse cases in recorded history. Never forget. By the way, if this errs and Pope Francis has passed away, don't make me re edit this. Let's just air it the way I had it and know that I'm sorry. No disrespect.

[Daniel Tosh]

You spoke of the prophecy.

[Lowe's]

Yeah, it's like right now doing a joke about a plane crash and then like, oh, my goodness, there were six more plane crashes from today's date until this airs next Tuesday. Wicked. I hate every musical. I hate fantasy. I hate witches. Not really a fan of Ariana. Now, that being said, I love Wicked. Oh, my goodness. I loved it. Didn't want to love it. And thanks to my wife and son and the tone deaf nightmare that my home has become, I know every word to every song popular. I don't even like that song. That's not the good song.

[Daniel Tosh]

That's the song that pops in your head, though.

[Lowe's]

That's the one that they forced me to sing all the time. No one can sing in my family. Yet everyone is fearless when it comes to belting out songs. Amelia Perez. Didn't see her. Didn't read her racist tweets either. Did you notice I said her? I'm so progressive. All right, is that all 10 of them? No, there's more. What's the next one?

[Daniel Tosh]

Nickel boys.

[Lowe's]

Nickel boys. Nope, didn't see it.

[Daniel Tosh]

I'm still here.

[Lowe's]

Is that actually the title of the movie?

[Daniel Tosh]

Mm.

[Lowe's]

All right. I didn't know if you were trying to pull one over on me. Didn't see it. Now, you might think I'm racist because I missed the last few films, but I would point out that I have two children and there's only so many hours in the day and they control the remote a majority of the time. So maybe they're racist. Do you ever think of that? Okay, so for me, it's down to Wicked or Dune. And they both have faults. For. For starters, Wicked is only the first half of a story. I didn't realize that until I watched it. Then at the end, they're like, oh, that's only the first half. The second half, this sister that's in the wheelchair, she becomes another witch, and then she's the one that the house falls on. Sorry for the spoiler. If you've never seen the play, which I haven't. And then Dune. Dune is the second of three. So that's just the middle part of a story. You know what? My vote is for Poor Things, And I know that was nominated last year, but I didn't see it till this year. And that movie is really fucked up. I mean, holy shit. I was watching it and there's just tons and tons of crazy nudity. And then they're pretending that it's okay because even though she's a child and naked and sexual, like, they're like, oh, she's only six years old, but it's played by an older person, so they can do the joke. And they constantly are calling her A and they think that's acceptable because it's a movie. I like how in comedy you can't do these things, but when you're doing, like, an artsy film, it's fine to basically be saying completely inappropriate things and child pornography, but it's not real child pornography because this child that this man created is in a body that's older. Nah, whatever. Then Gerard Carmichael shows up. Gerard Carmichael was in there. That part of it was confusing. Didn't really understand it, but whatever. So that's my vote. My vote is for Poor Things from last year.

[Lowe's]

Carl, what was your favorite movie in 2024? He's always partial to the the Air Bud franchise. You know who's gonna have an opinion? There's only one person in my circle that would really have an opinion on who should win Best Picture. That's my father in law. Let's see if he. Let's see if he's got time. It's a big day for him anyway. Hey, hey, two things. First of all before I ask this question, did you get your staples taken out today?

[Amica Life Insurance]

No, they had to reschedule for tomorrow morning.

[Lowe's]

Why?

[Amica Life Insurance]

The PA had to go home. She was sick or something.

[Lowe's]

Yeah, that's garbage. All right, well, tomorrow, make sure you make sure you get some video of them pulling those staples out of your knee.

[Amica Life Insurance]

Oh, yeah, I can't wait. I'll get it for you.

[Lowe's]

Full knee replacement man. Hey, question here is simple. Who is going to win Best Picture at the Oscars? Do you know all the nominees? There's 10 of them. Let me read them to you. The Brutalist Conclave, Wicked, Amelia Perez Nickel. Boys, I'm still here. A complete unknown. Dune part two, the Substance Anora.

[Amica Life Insurance]

Okay, I've only seen four of those. Ten. I'm gonna say the Brutalist wins.

[Daniel Tosh]

What?

[Lowe's]

Didn't you love Dune?

[Amica Life Insurance]

It's not got a chance. Science fiction never wins. No chance. It's a great movie. No, no chance. It wins.

[Lowe's]

What about Wicked? What about Wicked?

[Amica Life Insurance]

I Musical. I don't know. I think the other one that could win is the complete unknown.

[Lowe's]

Bob Dylan.

[Amica Life Insurance]

Yeah.

[Lowe's]

Oh. Did you like it?

[Amica Life Insurance]

I didn't see it.

[Daniel Tosh]

I like it, though. That's good.

[Lowe's]

But you think it could win? Hold. Even seen the Brutalist either?

[Amica Life Insurance]

No, but I want to see it.

[Lowe's]

So. So the two that you think you will win are. Are ones that you haven't even seen.

[Amica Life Insurance]

True. Just going on reputation.

[Lowe's]

Well, what. What's. What's the ones you've seen?

[Amica Life Insurance]

So I saw Dune, and I saw Conclave, which is very good. And I saw Amelia Perez, which is different, but was well done, I guess, for what it was.

[Lowe's]

What do you mean, I guess?

[Amica Life Insurance]

Have you seen it?

[Lowe's]

No. No, I'm not gonna watch that.

[Amica Life Insurance]

It's way out there. What was the. I can't even think of the fourth one I saw. Oh, Substance. You know, it'd be fun, but that's not gonna win.

[Lowe's]

Did you like all the nudity in this? In that movie?

[Amica Life Insurance]

Fantastic.

[Daniel Tosh]

Yeah, Fantastic.

[Lowe's]

I can't believe you haven't seen Wicked.

[Amica Life Insurance]

We have. I don't know why we haven't. We haven't seen that.

[Lowe's]

All right.

[Amica Life Insurance]

Need to see that. I seriously try to talk rudens. I the Brutalist.

[Lowe's]

All right, well. Well, good luck on that.

[Amica Life Insurance]

Okay, thanks.

[Lowe's]

I can't believe sci fi never wins. I thought Dune was a lock.

[Amica Life Insurance]

Oh, it's. It was terrific. No, sci fi never wins.

[Lowe's]

All right, good to know.

[Amica Life Insurance]

Like Space Odyssey. Is it all the one?

[Lowe's]

I'll. I'll check in on you tomorrow after the removal.

[Amica Life Insurance]

I would appreciate that.

[Lowe's]

All right, Godspeed.

[Amica Life Insurance]

We'll film it.

[Lowe's]

Okay, bye. So he hadn't even seen any of the movies he's picking. But he does, again, have some real takes on Dune. All right, let's plug some stuff. Tossshow store.com. guys, get some merch. Eddie's tour. My tour on sale now. Tons of dates. We're gonna be all over the Midwest. Also, this is funny. Portugal. I'm heading to Lisbon to do a show. Now, there's a chance that this show gets canceled. And I'm going to be honest with you guys. Whenever you hear of an act, canceling their show. They're always like, oh, it was health reasons or a family emergency. But all of that is a lie. The real reason the shows get canceled is because of one thing and one thing only. Right, Carl? That's poor ticket sales.

[Daniel Tosh]

There you go.

[Lowe's]

You just have to accept it. And guess what, guys? Right now in Lisbon, there are a lot of good seats available. And when I say a lot, I mean all of them. All of the good seats. Apparently, nobody in Lisbon has ever, ever heard of me or has any desire to. To see me do stand up. Because we've got no tickets sold. So pretty soon I'm going to be up against it and I'm going to have to make a decision. And they're going to be like, oh, it was a scheduling conflict. We regret to inform the 64 people that bought tickets that the show has been rescheduled to a later date. And that later date will be fucking never. Anyway, let's get to the free plug. We got any new music for the free plug today? Yes. There we go. Finally, something a little beat. Something giving us a little street cred. All right, this free plug. If you love subs, then might I recommend Little White House subs in Key West, Florida? Wow. I've never been there. It's located on 2181 Whitehead street near the key West Blight and Aquarium. What's blight?

[Daniel Tosh]

Big tower.

[Lowe's]

Is that something like a light, but it's called a blight?

[Daniel Tosh]

Yeah.

[Lowe's]

Am I supposed to know what the word blight means? Does anybody else know what the word blight means? No.

[Daniel Tosh]

It's Key west. Byte B, I, G. H, E. Misspelled it, then.

[Lowe's]

You misspelled it. Okay.

[Daniel Tosh]

Dork. C port.

[Lowe's]

I don't want to add anything else. You put a fucking word that doesn't exist and acted like I was crazy. All right. The Key West Bite and Aquarium. They're open from Monday through Saturday, 11 to 5. Sundays are only open 11 to 3. That makes sense. That's like Chick Fil A, only just, you know, shortened hours. They offer subs, sandwiches, and salads. Why would you put subs and sandwiches aren't. The subs are the same thing. Is a sandwich different than a sub in anyone's world? Yeah, the shape is what's different. Okay, you're telling me that a sub isn't a sandwich? I would say that it's called Subway Sandwich. All subs are sandwiches. Not all sandwiches are sub. By the way, the owner just got married. He actually attended my show in Vegas to celebrate. That's information That I got from Eddie, who randomly went to this sub shop while he was down in Key west performing. What'd you have, Eddie?

[Daniel Tosh]

The Balboa.

[Lowe's]

The Balboa. Now, the Balboa, according to their menu, is a $16 sandwich.

[Daniel Tosh]

It is.

[Lowe's]

That is. Am I out of touch or is just Key west different prices?

[Daniel Tosh]

I think it's a little higher down there. Everything.

[Lowe's]

I thought island life.

[Daniel Tosh]

Yeah.

[Lowe's]

Because $16 for a sandwich seems high.

[Daniel Tosh]

But it was huge.

[Lowe's]

They're big. Oh, they're big.

[Daniel Tosh]

Yeah.

[Lowe's]

Okay, so you're telling me you probably could have gotten a half for what, $10? I mean, and the half would have been a big enough sandwich for you?

[Daniel Tosh]

Yeah, because when they gave it to you, they wrapped the other half to go. They know you're not gonna finish the whole thing there.

[Lowe's]

Wow. So you ordered a sub and they just already pre boxed half your food? Said, you know what, sir, we're gonna do you a solid here.

[Daniel Tosh]

Honestly.

[Lowe's]

Cut you off halfway.

[Daniel Tosh]

Had I ate. No. If I'd unwrapped it, it would have felt like a pig. So I was just like, I guess I'll eat it around the corner.

[Lowe's]

You went and ate it around the corner? Yeah.

[Daniel Tosh]

If I was still hungry, I would have been hidden.

[Lowe's]

Oh, good lord. I thought you actually went around the corner and ate half the other half. Okay, now when I get a sub, which. Which I don't get to get as much as I want to because there's not a good sandwich place near my home. And my wife hates sandwiches. Okay. What? Yeah, she hates. She hates all sandwiches. Don't even get me started. But the chips, I'm really into that funky fusion. What brand is that? Voodoo chips. Yeah, I like voodoo chips. They're good. All right. You can get a whole pickle there for $2.60. Who doesn't love walking around an island just gnawing on a pickle? I bet those pickles in Key West. I bet you those things are a hot item. I love pickles.

[Daniel Tosh]

Yeah.

[Lowe's]

I've never once bought those pickle in a bag things. Man, those things look disgusting. There's just no way. There's that packs of crunch in there. That thing has got to be soggy and mushy. I don't like it. Well, well. Little white house has some desserts on hand. I suggest heading over to. What is it?

[Daniel Tosh]

Matheson's.

[Lowe's]

Matheson's on Duval for the best cookie on the island. Actually, I've been there before. I like their cookie. It's the cookie. They're like this big big cookie. Yeah, they gave us a stack of them once. They lasted us for the rest of the tour. We just break off a little piece every time you walk by. That's nice. I think there was a snickerdoodle that I enjoyed. Chocolate chip that I enjoyed. It might have been a snickerdoodle, Might have been a peanut butter one too. That was pretty good, eh? It doesn't matter. This isn't about Matheson's. This is about little White House subs. Go on over there and pick yourself up a sub in Key West, Florida. See you next week.
