What happened to Daniel Tosh
I guess like middle school or early high school all of the let’s just call them TV production Bros were obsessed with the comedian Daniel Tosh that hosted Tosh .0. There was a point where you literally could not escape him. What happened to him? Did he get canceled? Did I miss something? I just wonder how you can go from that height of fame to me asking what happened to him. The reason i ask is actually because he’s on tour doing stand-up. And it unlocked a part of my memory like yoooo. Maybe it’s because he thrived on viral videos and now they turned his idea into Ridiculousness.

Wow. This unlocked a memory. WHERE DID HE GO. He was so ahead of his time.
I don't think this necessarily helped his career: https://www.theatlantic.com/culture/archive/2012/07/daniel-toshs-apology-gang-rape-joke-almost-weak-joke-itself/326081/
It’s the same sort of thing that happened to The Soup: it became easy for all of us to find funny videos and react to them online, so having someone do it for us sort of ended up falling flat.
That said, I still miss The Soup, but I am relieved Tosh.O is no longer assaulting our screens.
It looks like he’s mostly touring now:

It is weird, though, how quickly his star fell. I think his brand of humor was supremely 2000s — it was immature, insulting, misogynistic… it doesn’t age too well.
