Episode Date: August 19, 2025

Daniel tracks down the elusive Saxsquatch for a chat about EDM festivals, believing in yourself, and why he loves Kenny G.

Hey, guys, it's me, Daniel. Do me a solid. I don't ask for a lot, but like and subscribe to this podcast. Also, you could rate it. Highly, I would appreciate. Maybe even write a review. Maybe we'll become best friends. Have you ever considered not letting the beat drop?

Yeah. Wouldn't that be a fun concert? He refused to drop the beat. Pasha! Tosh Show. Tosh Show for show. Welcome to Tosh Show. I'm your host, Daniel Tosh, and I have a huge announcement.

For the past year and a half-ish, we have delivered quality show after quality show. And we were with I-Heart Radio. And what did I-Hart do? Oh, they drop the ball because they let us slip through their fingers. we are no longer with iHeart we have moved wait for it we signed a two-year deal with libson there it is who yep that's the big announcement this podcast is now under the libson umbrella now what does that mean for you at home oh there's going to be changes the the first change that they want to do no guests they said they said Daniel not going to

off with the guest. That's not the strong suit of the show. They also want a new host. I'm not going to argue with them. They know what they're doing. And listen, Lipson, they don't just do comedy. And I've always said this about this podcast. Okay, this is not a comedy podcast. This is a political podcast that focuses on comedy. By the way, am I saying it right? Because I just signed with this company, L-I-B-S-Y-N, Lipson. Mm-hmm. Man, there. They are a powerhouse company.

You're going to notice the quality of ads that air on this podcast now are going to go up a tier. And you're probably going to want to support the people that I'm shilling for because I have to make sure Libson stays happy. I like hapsy Hapsey They do a show called Islamic finance I don't know what that's about But I'm sure it's good

If Lipson's behind it It's got to be good They have a conservative podcast called Brutely Honest Talk Radio It's weird that that's a podcast But called Talk Radio We should call this

Tosh TV show But it's a podcast Yeah Why not Yeah They have The Georgia Politics Podcast. That sounds fun. You know what that's about?

I'm going to guess Georgia politics. Nail on head, buddy. Thank you. Sometimes you can judge a book by its cover. Sure can. That's a pretty good title. That's a great title. Tell us what it is.

Country or the state? What's that? The country of Georgia, I'm guessing. You thought it was... Why do you think state? No, you know, Georgia politics, just... You talk about it over there in Atlanta? Yeah.

That's not interesting. No one wants to hear about that, but the country, Georgia. Oh, what's going on over there? Yeah. I love seeing a 12-year-old with an automatic weapon. Who doesn't? I mean, it's fun. Brought the fresh air over there. More fun school photos.

Now, if there was a show called The Bulldogs Politics, I'd be interested in that as well. Spare hair. You think vices are cool? Spare here! You're probably wondering, well, why did you sign with Lipson over some of the other companies? because Lord knows a lot of suitors came a calling. We started off with 12 companies wanting this podcast, okay? And then after our first round of negotiation where we demanded that we get paid to do it,

all but three of them dropped off. Homestown. No, but Lipson, they said, listen, we believe in you so much. We're not one of these companies that just on the first few months of our relationship will we return your phone calls. We're going to do it for at least six months. That's nice. Commitment. And they're going to get us some good ads.

And some of people at home are like, I wish there was no ads. Well, I wish you would drop dead. Okay? Because we need ads. Lord knows we need ads. People here, they've got families to provide for. me I'm sick of my family riding my coat tails I'm in Tahoe so I'm in Tahoe you know hanging out in the woods in the mountains in the lake brought my little submarine that my manager Christy bought me

Toy of the summer there you go I've said it I've said it a few times toy of the summer the The reason that it was a toy the summer is because it's so user friendly. It's so easy. Okay. You just press a button and it goes. And then you go faster or slower. That's, it's pretty, it was pretty amazing. I don't know what she paid for it.

We should look it up and put that on the screen. Yep. See what she, what kind of gift she bought me. Had my kid on my back, took him underwater. He's like, Dad, I can't go 10 meters. I'm like, who the fuck knows what meters are? And down we went. Because it has a thing on it.

It has a regulator. Once it gets to 10 meters, you have to type in a code for it to go deeper. Wow. But I was just like, we can do it, buddy. He's like, my ears hurt. I'm like, you got to regulate. He's like, I'm six. I'm like, regulate.

We're going down. You're probably wondering why I look so handsome, so manly. Well, I just got back from Tahoe. I was in the mountains. And when I was in the mountains, I met someone, someone that I never thought in a million years would agree to sit next to me in this studio, a person that shies away from everything that this podcast represents.

My guest today is somewhat of a legend who has spent his entire life living off the grid. When you tell your friends that you saw him on my show, they might not believe you, even with video evidence. He is equal parts single read Woodwind Prodigy and conspiracy theory, clickbake folklore, the man, the myth, the saxquatch. Would you like some water? Yeah. Oh, you can speak. That's interesting. That's my first question.

I didn't know that. I love that denim shirt you wearing, though. Thank you. I wore it for you. Here's why I wore it for you. I didn't have a lot of woodsy attire, but at least I felt like denim was in the, you were in the... like an outdoorsy kind of i was trying to go for mountainy but i ended up more cowboy it's i apologize do you believe in ghosts you know i think that i believe in the unknown and so that's

that's everything that there could be ghost is also kind of just depends on what it means you know i'm gonna put that down as a no you don't believe in ghost do you believe in bigfoot yeah of course do you know bigfoot well i come from a family of big foot's what's like shoe are you wearing these days well i'm not really i still don't really wear shoes that much um but it would be ballpark around like 11 11 a half no like oh daniel come on that would be funny though that would be funny i like you having a i like i like you having a 10 like you having just a normal foot do that 10 and a 11 why is that why do you like that why do you like that's funny because i just think it would be funny that big foot that that that's a perfect analogy for

America. It's the biggest thing you've ever seen. What size is? It's an 11 and a half. Not that big. Are Bigfoot and Sasquatch different? You know, they're a tiny bit different in the history of it, but every culture has a version of Bigfoot, whether it's Yowie or Yeti, Sasquatch. It definitely traces back a very, very, very long time. What about the abominal snowman? You know him? Yeah, you know, he is a real dick, though. Oh. Yeah.

Oh, I didn't know that. A little beef. Little beef. Where are you originally from? And where'd you grow up? Grew up in the woods, but around the areas of North Carolina. Ah. Yeah, East Coast, but traveling all over, you know. You like the Carolinas? Yeah, I love the mountains and love the beach.

You ever go to Kitty Hawk? Yeah, I've been to Kitty Hawk. Yeah, yeah. I mean, not a lot of room for you to hide there, though. No, and the wind is lots of wind, you know, which can be good, but I've tried to do some, like, live sets out there, and, you know, the microphones pick up all this wind. It's crazy. Okay. Who or what got you into the saxophone?

You know, I just heard it on the radio, and it was one of those things where you just feel this, like, immediate spiritual connection because it's such a raw, primal sound. I was just, like, became obsessed with it. It was that song, Urgent by Foreigner with the Junior Walker solo in it, that classic rock song on the radio. I became obsessed with the saxophone ever since. That's actually how I got the nickname Sacksquatch. The first person that turned me onto the saxophone was John Cusack. Wow.

Yeah, yeah. Didn't he, he always used to play the saxophone in those rom-coms in the 80s, better off dead, I believe he played a saxophone in? Summer Camp. there was a bunch of them he liked to draw cartoon characters and they incorporated that in all his movies and they always they always had the saxophone you guys might not remember that one crazy summer one crazy summer thanks ed good poll how did that make you feel when you heard it i liked it now as i got older i didn't love the saxophone as much why not i don't know a little little whiny i don't i don't know what the answer is maybe it wasn't played by the right person for me or or do thing what do i say. What's the, what's the PC term now? Beast, I guess. Beast. Nice. How tall are you? About seven foot. Oh, wow. That's a big fella. How long are you been playing the saxophone? Oh, probably about 15 years or so. Did you have lessons? Well, listen into music and just kind of

playing along to it and jamming and playing with other musicians is just really the lessons that And that always blows my mind when people can do stuff like that. Like you can just learn. I never could do it with any instrument. I never committed long enough, maybe, but I don't think that's the real answer. I think I just don't have the ability. Well, when did you learn stand-up? How did you learn stand-up?

Well, I just sucked for 20 years. Yeah, exactly. Yeah, I could, maybe not 20 years, but I definitely, even today, I could still say that it's the eye of the listener. Do you play other instruments? Yeah, I play, you know, keyboard. I actually grew up kind of a jazz snob. Uh-huh.

You know what I'm saying? Did you grow up kind of a comedy snob? No, no, no. No, no, but I know, I mean, I understand what a jazz snob is, because when I listen to jazz, I'm fascinated by people that think it's amazing, and I'm just like, okay. Yeah, so jazz snob, to the point where if someone around me even played something on the radio that wasn't jazz, I would be like, turn that. shit off you know and then one day I realized that I was just being an asshole okay you know and I was

like I need to connect with people that's really what it's about is connecting with people and so I have this theory that we like whatever we listen to the most oh that can't be true because I listen to so much shitty kids music right now I mean it's just there's this song do you like spaghetti and then you respond, yes, I do, do you like, and then the next spring is like, ice cream, yes, I do. Do you like spaghetti ice cream? Like, no, yucky. Anyway, the song, at one point, they say, do you like juice? But in my ears, all I hear is do you like Jews?

And I feel like they could have done another pass on the edit because it really sounds, do you like Jews? Do you like juice? Okay, sorry about that. But that's just to contradict what you listen to most. What about you? Do you like music in general? Yeah, no. I mean, I'm ignorant to it, and I like the best of genres. You know, one time my friend who's really into jazz,

Greg Hahn, he's a comedian, a good friend of mine. He plays the drums, and he's really, into jazz music. And he'd always bring me to these jazz clubs in Los Angeles. And he goes, that guy right there is the greatest drummer in the world. And then I'd watch this guy and he was amazing. And then after the show, I'd see him standing there like barking to sell his CDs. And I'm like, ah, it's so depressing in the jazz world. The best of the best in the whole world is like still trying to make a buck because he's not, you know, some pops. star making a bazillion dollars yeah that story doesn't really matter about anything but i used to go

to jazz clubs all the time and i would and i would appreciate it but i knew that it was like it was beyond me i was just more there just for the social experiment of it all yeah but nothing is wrong with that people are not supposed to have to dig and dig and spend their whole lives digging to find some kind of nuanced music that makes you better than other people you know what i mean it's like people are exposed to just kind of what they are exposed to um and And I decided that I wanted to be a part of that, which is why I stopped being a jazz knob, you know? So it does actually kind of tie into that a little bit, at least.

Who are your influences? You know, I grew up listening to daft punk. Charlie Parker was a huge one, even though it's like cliche to say Charlie Parker. I listened to a lot of John Coltrane. It was very spiritual stuff when it comes to saxophone. And then I started getting more into like big gigantic gris, sew down. Those people in the saxophone world, I feel a lot. little bit guilty because I just feel like I'm, you know, sometimes that I'm like maybe

riding their coattails because they've done such a good job of doing things before me with the saxophone and electronic music. Now, when did you decide to pivot from jazz, which, you know, in some circles is considered terrible, to rave music, which is equally terrible, but completely different. Yeah, maybe about 10 years ago, I started making electronic music, but I will say, I grew up listening to daft punk, like, on repeat. Okay, but daft pump is kind of the exception, not the rule. Would you agree with that? I would agree with that, but it's a four on the floor kick,

and it's got the synthesizers, the acid base, the, like, the feeling. And, like, at least I could, I dug onto that super hard and was like, this is actually genuine for me. Like, I really love this. And this is going to be the way that I connect with myself and connect with other people by making electronic music. And it's only grown from there, you know? How come so many people in the electronic music industry, the artist, hide their identity?

I would say because it's not about the ego of the artist, or at least it shouldn't be. You know, it should be about the audience. If you go to a show and the crowd is dead, then the show doesn't have that, like, electric energy to it. And that's an example for me of why the show is about the connection between the music, the crowd, the production, everything like that. When the crowd is, like, super into it, it's just a magical experience. I do feel a little bit weird about crowds like worshiping people or worshipping one person because I feel like we're all kind of equal, you know what I mean? I don't like that.

I think the person that's performing should be put on a pedestal personally. Agreed. Right? Thank you, Eddie. How long do your performances typically last and describe a Sack Squatch show for me? About an hour. what I think I love about the show is there's so many things but the tempos of the songs change drastically throughout the set without it being jarring

so like it starts off like we got like swampy tempos people clapping we do big foot calls at the shows we got the lasers we got visuals you're singing live throughout all of this I'm singing live yeah is it every every song has a live or a singing element or no no probably Probably like five songs or something like that. Is there pyro?

Have you ever kinze it? Or is your hair a liability for pyro? The hair is a liability. I've been way too scared for pyro, but there's cryo. There's the CO2, the smoke. Uh-huh. Yeah, that shoots up. I love that.

You know, when it goes pshh. And then the lasers hit. And it's just like the whole audience, when they go, oh, you know, it feels so good. You know when the audience is so loud that you, like, feel it in your bones. And you're like, oh, man, like, if I ever had any. Oh, no, I'm not a performer that, that, that gets that type of reaction from the audience. I get, I get, you know, some laughter and some, you know, clapping. I've never had people going crazy.

This is a different level of energy that I'm foreign to. When the whole, like, theater is just, like, roaring from laughter. They're not roaring. Okay. They're mildly amused. Okay, okay, okay. But that's me. So, listen, you're, you're doing good.

Do you ever have bad shows? Oh, yes, bad shows, bad shows. Is it ever your fault? Or is it like, because I understand technical difficulties. And that, I'll be honest with you, that doesn't seem like that's really your fault for the show being bad. But have you ever just been like, oh, that just didn't go well? There have been times where it's just like, hey, man, that was a boring set, you know? Like, oh, yeah, like maybe four or five years ago, it was like, oh, yeah, that was cool for 10 minutes.

And then I got bored. And it was like, oh, man, that hurts so bad. You know, as someone who grew up not really being believed in, it really, like, pushes a button. You have a license for your laser show. You're telling me every DJ with a laser rig has passed some sort of test. Either they've passed a test or the person who's running the lasers has passed the test. So it's really cool. And I have all these buttons on the table that look like they have these red buttons that look like I'm, you know, like dropping bombs or something.

Okay. You know, it's pretty sweet. Can you kill anyone with these lasers? It depends on where exactly you shoot the laser. Have you ever considered not letting the beat drop? Yeah. Wouldn't that be a fun concert? He refused to drop the beat.

It just kept building for hours. And then he just left. That would let, oh, man, talk about maybe creating a... And you just say, hey, come back next concert, and maybe I drop the beat. Just an idea. What is a test for the laser? You have to get a certification. It's basically an online.

Depends on how you do it, but it's the paperwork for lasers is pretty much outdated to the 1950s. It has not been changed. Were there lasers in the 50s? There were these giant tube lasers that were like these huge tube lasers. They haven't changed the rules since. It's FDA. So the Food Drug Administration is the one giving this test. Was it hard?

It's not that hard, honestly. How long is it good for? Do you have to re-up it every year? Yeah, you have to re-up it every year. Whoa. Yeah. It's probably, lasers probably has to do with, like, something to do with the planes, right? You can't shoot them at outside concerts.

You can't point them at planes or anything. Or people. You can't point them at people at the show. All right. So you can do some damage. That's exciting. Will Trump selling off America's parks hurt or help you? Oh, yeah. It's hurt. That's a hurt. I like to make my videos in the parks. The parks are beautiful. And I'm not supposed to make videos in the parks.

Oh, is that actually technically a no-no? It's technically a no-no. I've done some live streaming in like Olympic National Park. And I don't think you're supposed to play loud instruments. But I was there first, I think. When did you post your first video? Oh, that's a good question. Maybe 2018. 2018. 2018? Yeah. That's not that long ago.

Yeah, not too long. Wait, wait. You're one of the rare people that were featured on my old show, Tosh Point O. What year was that? Maybe 2019. Yeah. So were you surprised that one of your videos already had hit that mainstream level? Yes, but I will say the way that I kind of started out making videos to post online,

I never really expected to be a professional with it, if that may be. make sense. I was just doing it because I wanted Sack Squatch to be a thing that helps people in the world. And so I was, I was making videos for a really long time. I mean, a really long time, like, like six to nine months, like every day obsessing, trying to make it a thing, just for the sake of it being in the world. And it never took off until I just kept pushing. And then one day it did. When it did, it's like, well, I've been trying really hard for a long time. Like, I kind of broke my back over this, and I was really happy, you know. So you weren't upset with us for putting your video on now.

Were you upset because you were playing music, and we, of course, can never afford music, so we have to strip your music off and then dub in really bad library music. Did that upset you? You know, it was decent. I totally understood what happened. You had to replace the music because I was playing a cover song. Okay. But all my friends were like, dude, you're on Tosh Point O.

I was like, no way, you know, I'm like such a huge fan. You know, it's pretty sweet. You make a lot of your performance videos out in the woods. Are you ever worried about hunters? You know, I've decided if that's how I go out, it's how I go out, you know? Oh, man. And even to take that and put it in the realm of failing at music, if I were to not get any more good opportunities or anything

and just end up in the corner of a bar somewhere, playing saxophone until i eventually leave this earth then i'll be okay with that all right that's that's music to my ears right there how many shows are you doing a year now it's not too bad maybe like 65 70 shows um so i'm not on the road like my entire life would you want to do more actually no i think that's the sweet spot for me it's like it's like 65 um quality over quantity you know make sure that we got lasers at the shows, that we got, you know, awesome production and stuff like that. I agree with that.

You know, I always thought, oh, if I could make X amount of dollars, I would scale back the amount of shows I did. But instead, you make more money and you get greedy and you're like, no, I'll just keep doing the same amount of shows, you know, huge numbers. Yeah. And it wasn't until recently that I just finally was like, knock it off. Let's just go way back and do seven shows a year. year.

Is that my new philosophy, Eddie? Eddie yells at me all the time because he wants me to work a little more. He gets a little taste of that action. But, man, it's tough. It's tough to get me out of bed. By the way, how do you sleep? Are you a back sleeper? Do you prefer your stomach?

Or side? The side. You prefer side. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Mm-hmm. Are you a good sleeper? Not really. Tossing and turning.

What time do you normally go to bed at night? Well, so I have a little squatch at home, baby sack squatch. You got a kid? Yeah, yeah, he's almost four. Yeah. Holy Kendall, but even told me that. I didn't know it. Yeah.

You got a four-year-old running around. Yeah, and so when I'm home, it's like he wakes up at, you know, 6.30, and I'm waking up at six. So I have to go to bed at, like, 9.30. Not if you're having a show. On the road, it's like, the show starts at, like, you know, 11 or midnight or, you know, maybe 1 a.m. West Coast time, and I'm on the East Coast, you know. So the sleep schedule is going back and forth. Does he know what daddy's doing at night?

Yeah, he does. He sees videos and stuff like that. He loves it. He sings my own songs to me. It's so sweet. Are you worried about him being hunted? No, I keep him kind of off the radar. Sure.

Yeah. That's every father's worst nightmare. Kid getting hunted. Is your little four-year-old getting hunted? That is definitely every father's nightmare. By the way, do you just, and I, I mean this, I don't want to disrespect you honestly. But do you stink to high heavens after a concert?

You know, I think everybody stinks a little bit, you know? Great. And that's beautiful. You've got quite a bit of hair. And I'm just guessing that builds some must. You know, some people like it. Some people don't like it. But, you know, I have to smell some crazy must, actually, in the crowd.

I'm not even kidding. There was this show we did the other day. It was a lot of elderly. And when I was in the audience, I went down to kind of play for the audience. I say don't touch me before I go down there. And do they listen to that? Actually, no, they don't.

But they generally do better than if I didn't say it, which is why I say it. And some of the smells that I've smelled personally are unbelievable. My eyes are watering under the sunglasses. Are you litigious? Will you sue these people? You know, it's happened. And you know how that is as a performer.

You can't do anything. You got to just take it. No, I fucking, I'll slam the brakes on the show and walk. I don't care at all. I could care less. He's not dropping the game. Yeah, yeah, I'll leave. You're not getting your money back.

But that's me. You know, I'm not looking for repeat business. That's why I'm performing in some really bizarre places lately. You said older fans are sexualized. you. Is that fair? Oh, yes. Yes. Well, because Sasquatch culture was particularly huge in the United States in the 70s with the Patterson Gremlin film with the Sasquatch looking back in the, in California. Uh-huh. And, you know, there were all these articles coming out about, oh, I had Bigfoot's baby, and it would be like a hairy baby, you know, on the cover of a newspaper. There were ways to just be really

engulfed in the culture. And so those same women, are still alive and messaging me. But they're just old? Not just old, but they're more than that. They're frisky. Do you ever cross that line? How is your Sacks life? That was a freebie.

I'm dating a girl right now. Her name is Thickfoot. Thickfoot? Oh, that is a unfortunate nickname for a girl. But thickfoot. I'm going to start calling my wife Thickfoot. See how that flies. Yeah.

do you prefer the phrase bigfoot sighting or bigfoot spotting because the word spotting in the context of my wife's cycle has always made me gag yeah yeah sighting is is definitely an alluring word so let's go with that did you ever get a taste of that national inquire money because for all these years they were really profiting off you and even um the people who like finding bigfoot you know they've had 11 seasons of an amazing TV show. Are you serious? There's 11 seasons of that nonsense. If you watch past one episode, is it really a good show? It's a great show.

Listen, no, it's a good show. Even if they were paying you, I wouldn't let you say that. No, then they're not, and they're not. I love the show so much. They do Bigfoot calls. They have the best Bigfoot hunting equipment. It's extremely entertaining to watch them

try to catch Bigfoot. friends with cliff um you know in real life not finding big foot i'm like well of course you're a big celebrity and why wouldn't he he comes to the shows give me a big foot call what's a big foot call sound like i don't even know this you know like a whoop like a that's how you call bigfoot yeah sounds like it sounds like insane clown posse yeah juggalos are showing up sound like the juggalo's in here well they actually took it they oh yeah oh now that those are fighting words okay because i know i see Yeah The message to the juggaloes and the jugglers

Let me tell I'm going to tell all the juggaloes out there right now Okay put down your Fago We're going to war How do you get booked at a music festival They just find you in the woods I would say like selling ticket If you can sell tickets Then the music festivals will be interested

What's your favorite music festival that you've performed at? Oh man Recently it has to be electric forest So sick And the trees are like these, a bunch of these really tall, thin, swaying trees that are close together. I can't even just... So you're performing

for trees, not humans. Oh, that explains some of this. The tree starts a little. No, this is just an outdoor venue. They're in the woods in Michigan. You have no idea how magical this place is.

It's absolutely mind-blowing. Okay, my next question is obvious. Drugs? Are you doing drugs? I don't do drugs. None? I don't do drugs. What about mushrooms? No shrooms, no shrooms.

Have you ever done mushrooms? Yes, yes, yes. I've tried it, and I've realized in order to convey the message and show up to shows that I need to not do that stuff. Okay, but you also feel like you had to have tried it so that you can speak from experience so you can see all that stuff. Crystal meth, you ever tried it? Yeah, you know what? no not on the not on the crystal nothing okay that's good that's good we want you to live a long time how's your health my health is better than ever daniel it's better than ever i've been you know

making efforts to eat more more fruit blueberries nuts stuff like that you know my rider is like super healthy you know what's your rider like simple you know why my writer's simple i've i've told the story before, I'll tell it again. My writer is simple because we, the artist, are paying for it. So why am I going to put something extravagant in your... People that say, oh, can you believe they ask for all this? It's like, yeah, I can believe it. They're idiots. They're having to pay for it. That's a line item in your contract. You're paying for it. Unless you're like getting a flat fee for like a casino show, then go crazy with your rider. But normally, I have a couple bottles of water, a little bit of hummus, and a veggie tray. The end. Yeah. Have you ever gotten

like hummus but no pita chips or pita chips but no hummus? No, I always get pita chips. I always get you both. I always get pita chips. What kind of, well, one time we got, because, you know, I'll flip a goddamn table if there's nothing to dip it in. We've gotten just hummus before, and we've had to use strange things to, in order to use the hummus, you know. I don't know if It's racist, if that's the term, but I don't know what they were thinking. How are you supposed to eat it? Everyone on the show gets a gift. I just take stuff from my house that I think you might like, and I give it to you.

So for you, here's what I got you. First, just a nice throw blanket for when you're out in the woods. Yeah, it's nice. Honestly, I don't think it's ever been used. But I love that. I don't like it. So it's yours. Now, the other thing I got you, it's for two, a ham.

Oh wow I love hammock Yeah I figure I figure you could rest And occasionally there you got you a hammock Oh I love that Now that has been I have used that Now the reason I'm giving away is I don't have two trees Within the appropriate distance

So you'll figure that out Beautiful I think we have a gift for you Oh no that's that is not necessary Can you get that on the floor Just throw that on the floor both of those is fine Just drop them you can just thank you so much Here comes a live salmon for you. Sacks. Don't do this.

Give them the rock. Oh, God damn it. You're giving me a rock. This is from the Ozarks. We got this this weekend. What? Oh, man. Let me see this.

That's pretty sweet. That's actually beautiful. Okay? I'll tell you, but my son and I go crystal hunting all the time. This right here is beautiful. You got this from the Ozarks? Yeah. You ever been to the Ozarks, Ed?

Yep. What type of rock is this? It's a G-O basically. Mm-hmm. Yeah. That's nice. Well, I can't wait to. take that home

your folks how do they wrap their head around all of this my folks have been generally really supportive although it's taking a lot of convincing um I come from a musical family my my grandfather was gigfoot

you know you play guitar I'm not familiar with gigfoot gigfoot yeah no no I mean sounds good it was on Lawrence Welk show back in the day okay that's why I miss that one. That's great. And my sister, big flute.

Oh. Yeah, yeah. I don't like a flute. Does anyone really like a flute? Mm-mm. Oh, you know what? I want to go home today and listen to some flute music. Some flute music.

Lisa Simpson. Yeah. Go ahead. You a fan? Huge fan. Genius player. All right, F. Mary Kill. Lisa Simpson, Bill, Bill Clinton, Kenny G.

I'm going to kill Bill, because it rhymes, marry Lisa, and do the dirty with Kenny. Yeah, yeah, that's the right pick. I think he's right the whole way it draws. You got it, you're like, okay. I think he answered that right. No notes. By the way, Kenny, he lives down the street from me, and just when I see him, I just laugh. He's just always happy.

He's got another little kid, too. This kid, I'm like, how old are you? I don't even ask that question, but I know the answer. I can look it up, but he's got another little one. He's always happy. Good for him. Do you like Kenny G's music? You know, I always have.

Even when I was a jazz snob, I loved Kenny G. That's interesting, because I would think he wouldn't pass the jazz snob test. If it sounds good, then it's good. I feel bad making you hold the sax, the whole interview, and I haven't even asked you to play. So go ahead and let that baby loose. I want to Pawshow. I want to thank Sacks Squatch for being on the show.

I also want to thank him for not hurting Carl. Carl did not like that. Spent the whole interview hiding in the corner. Did I mention that we signed with Lipson? By the way, this isn't our first episode with Lipson either. This is our second episode. This is episode two. I'm sure Lipson was listening to episode one going, huh?

He didn't mention us at all. But now in episode two, they're probably like, whoa. He talks a lot. What did we get ourselves into? I did say that Lipson was going to change a few things on the show. I didn't mention all the things. Did you know that they're going to make Eddie into a black person? You go, it's happening.

A lot of people thought he was black at eye heart. But now that Lipson's at the wheel, Eddie is black. Okay? What's up, everybody? Also, the show will be in Spanish. Love it or hate it. Do we do any plugs? Is Lipson allowing us to plug?

Oh, yeah. Okay, I'm hearing yes. All right. Toshoshostore.com. Check out our merch. We got Eddie's tour. Eddie's doing some stand-up dates, and I'm doing some stand-up dates. I'm going to do a lot more.

I got a hunch that I'm going to be doing a lot more dates. Got some Vegas dates coming up. Thanksgiving. Got a little tour coming up. Here's an update on my wife's cousin Amanda, who lives with us, and I'm going to be setting up with someone on the reality show that currently lives here on Tosh show. We put up a phone number. Feel free.

By the way, it's probably not going to be one of our listeners. You need to pass this on to somebody that's better than you and have them call. Because we're getting voicemails, but I don't know how promising some of these leads are. You got one for me, Eddie? Yeah, let's hear one. Hey, what's up? I'm Bill 37. I'm a control systems engineer.

5.10, over 300 pounds. Whoa. I wrote a horse once. and I voted not for trope. Okay. That does not sound like a 37-year-old. That's the first thing. He sounds every bit of 300.

He said he ate a horse once? I mean, he said he rode one? He rode a horse. He heard a horse. Sounds like he broke a horse. He said over 300. So if you're 303, you're not saying over 300. He's well over 300.

A lot of numbers over 300. You're saying he could be 500. Could be. It's over 300? Yeah. Infinite. If you weigh 500, that's interesting just to say, oh, I'm over 300. It's like, what a shock when you see that big load walking. Okay, okay.

So there's 37. He didn't vote for Trump. That's nice, but he's, I don't know. That doesn't sound good. Yeah, Bill's not going to make it to the next round. Thanks for calling. Thank you for calling, though, Bill. Anybody else call? Yep.

Actually, I'm calling for Eddie. Eddie is Hutch. We met in Indy. I would like to submit my own name. Sixty four years old, been married twice, got two kids, five foot eight, 180 pounds, retired, don't know shit about horses. But hey, I would be fun to hang out with. I hope you guys are well. Is that person calling for you? I think he's calling to, I did meet him. I'm in Indianapolis after one of the shows. You know who that is? I know Hutch. He communicates with me sometimes through my website. You talk to fans? I do.

I went on. What the fuck is wrong with you? I'm just, why would you talk? So Hutch is calling you on our number, but he's submitting himself to be a family member of mine. First of all, I said, I didn't want anybody married. He's been,

Hutch has been married twice. Twice. He sounds like a nice guy. 64. I mean, listen, can you verify that he was 5, 8, and 100, 180 pounds yeah verification okay he actually called back no hutch called back again left another voice met what let me hear hutch's next call Eddie hutch again I just saw the picture of her with the swollen eye and that's a hard pass for me sorry I told you she has this eye thing that happens like like six times a year like just for a day and then this is an allergic reaction

okay but that's good so hutch hutch withdrew himself I was coming around in hutch even though he'd been married twice, which I think is a deal breaker. He's 5-8, which is a deal-breaker. And he's old as fuck. No, all right, hutch is out. But I'm glad to know that you perform with me. Right. And then after the shows, you meet these people that went to the show, and you become lifelong friends.

We go out. We do ghost tours through the cities. Eddie lives my nightmare. It really is. We couldn't be more different. Hmm. Couldn't be more different. Yeah. Well, okay, listen, every week I'll check in, and until we find the right guy.

But that hutch and Bill, we're not starting off very strong. If those are our first two applicants, we, Amanda might get depressed. We're going to build momentum, though. Okay. All right. All the number, guys. We'll see you next week.
